If you people have any ideas then please let me know. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Larry, I'm in a similar situation as yours. I want to start making money online, but not necessarily through programs. In other words, I'm slowly working from ground up, making a block and a site, and finishing up a small book that I want to sell. I want to sell my products and services through my site, and I know it is modest compared to other online business strategies, but right now all I can focus on is getting my projects finished and working on them solely.

Hi Larry,

go for it! I have been making content sites and selling affiliate products and ı did that mainly when employed in other jobs. I now work on it full time for the moment and its doing well.

Takes time to learn everything but you can take shortcuts now with so much info available, wish you luck...

My $0.02 would be that you should "grow your way out" of your day job with an online business on the side. Of course I took the leap and dove right in and never looked back, but it can be difficult at first if you don't know what you're doing. Good Luck!

Have you thought more about how you want to approach it Larry? It seems like there are so many angles to go from. Like if you want to be independent, part of a team, an affiliate, etc. Each track has it's own benefits and specifics skill sets. There's a good book called Breakaway Careers that talks about this, but it is not updated to the more modern online careers. Still, it's a great read and introduction to breaking out on your own if you have some extra time for reading.

Hi Larry

Whatever you decide to do, don't pressure yourself to get rich tomorrow. I tell you this through experience which is not only unique to me. A lot of people who try to jump on the "make lots of money on the Internet" bandwagon rushes, and most people out of sear desperation to change their current circumstances.

Yes Internet Marketing is a sure way to break free from a horrid job and/or boss and out of the poverty line. It's very achievable, the problem arise where one is so desperate for a better life, they try one thing then jump to the next best thing, then the next and so on. Keep doing that and you'll only end up very confused and frustrated that nothing is happening.

Take your time and learn about some options that are available. Try a few things out along the way and see what suits you. When you find the one thing that does suit, then just go for it and work until you make your new business work. Once you make a success out of then one thing, another words "making money", rinse and repeat or move onto something else that interests you.

Hope this advice helps Larry and all the best.
