One Morning in My Life of Affiliate Marketing

I Need Some Coffee!!! My In- Box Is Full!

Hi, my name is K.G. Gunderson , I woke up this morning with the sun shining and I had the house to myself. I got myself a cup of coffee, turned on my computer and decided to check my e-mail, as I have recently joined an affiliate marketing program which I am excited about. I was looking forward to see what e-mails I had received on how to make money from my home business! I opened up my in-box and I had a nice one, from a family member far away. Unfortunately most of it was filled with junk mail. All kinds of programs claiming they were the absolute best at making money online from home and it was the absolute truth. I then proceeded to check my filtered in-box. Another 3 pages of junk mail, full of more claims of being able to give me multiple streams of income from my home, working online, and something is free?

You might be wondering what this has to do with anything. Maybe I should explain a little bit of my life to you. I have spent the last 20 years, working and getting by. I have 4 kids, who play sports and are very active in school, which means more expenses, more money, etcetera. I've been happy to be able to have enough money to provide for them and watch them grow, this has brought me great joy in my life! Then 2 years ago I fell at work. I thought it wasn't the end of the world, they'll slap me into surgery and in 6 weeks I'll be back to work. WRONG! 3 surgeries later, infections and complications, 2 years have passed and I now know I will never return to my job.

Another sob story? No not really. This has given me lots of time to wander, surfing the internet. Unfortunately a lot of the time I was medicated, LOL. So needless to say I signed up for everything, every Tom, Dick, and Harry had to offer! Which would explain my in-box.

I started looking around on how to make money online, or from a home business. The truth is I read a make money at home business review site, not realizing it was a sales page and clicked into 3 reviews of online money making systems in total ignorance.
I checked into the survey thing, only to find I would have to give them money to work from my home, for them? Shouldn't they be paying me?

Looking at more make money at home business reviews I stumbled into affiliate marketing again, not knowing what it was. The first one that struck me in a positive way was the Millionaire League, by Brian Wynn. So I signed up for a free money making report. He even sent me a free report, I know this sounds familiar, but his was actually valuable, with real, useable free information. A truthful 25 page ebook on how to make money online from home. Why is this important? Because I continued to wander around the internet, as I am a "newbie", which I had to look up the meaning because I didn't know what it meant.

I surfed the internet online some more and I joined another make money home business program, In my medicated state grrr!!!, this one I paid for. They made promises of making easy money at home, multiple streams of income and putting it all on auto pilot quickly. While I sit back and watch the money roll in. I thought I'd get a DVD in the mail and it would give me step by step instructions and I'd be up and running and making money from home in 3 hours. WOW! Was I wrong! To tell you the truth it was a good deal, they offered me a discount. I have a hard time passing up a bargain. They continue to send me more information, but all for a price, more money! Only to discover, I had just paid for the same money making system The Millionaire Leaguehad just given to me for free!

I don't claim to have made millions of dollars. As, yes I am just starting out, and at an extremely slow pace, but that's OK with me. I've gotten my website up, bought a domain name along with a hosting place, you know all the basic stuff, which can be very intimidating for a newbie! Luckily, it was all made easy for me through The Millionaire League. At my website you get 3 reviews which tell the truth and you can get 3 money making websites, FREE!

To get back on track, I wanted to share with you my thoughts of how ironic the affiliate business is. Here we are as affiliates trying to sell their products for them, and yet they keep trying to charge us money for it?? I'm confused? This seems a little backwards to me? Paying to work for somebody else with no real guarantees? This is kind of a backwards business world, right? I think they should provide us with the money making tools if we are to sell their stuff! My in-box is full of offers for me to pay people to work for them. They all say check this out. When actually they're saying here's a tool, pay for it, give me your money, over and over again and if you are lucky you might make some money to. How stupid do they think I am?

Needless to say, that's not gonna happen, not for $7.00, $29.99, $49.99 or even $999.00!! I will stick with The Millionaire League, a one time fee, no monthly fees. Everything I need to succeed, make money from my home and then some. Brian has gained, better yet, EARNED my trust! I truly recommend this program! The Millionaire League. I would link this, but I seem to be having trouble figuring that one out. Check out my website too at http://www.makemoneyhomebusinessreviewsite.com/ .
Yes, I know, it's kind of a long name, but I got side tracked away from Brian when I bought the domain name, But it's paid for and I'm using it! Best of all, it's all mine and I'm proud of it! I have learned so much and am very excited to learn more and start my next step, which is to start marketing and SEO. Wish me luck! Feel free to join me on my journey, I'll keep you posted on how it is coming along!
