My name is Joey and I, like so many of you, have been looking to enable myself to take better control of my life.
I am over 50 years young, still employed and blessed with a loving family. I also have been looking for opportunities to not only make extra money, but also give me a chance to be more independent from my employer – that is not so easy to do at my stage of life.
Over the past ten years, I made several half-hearted attempts to get into the “online world” and mainly through my own lack of due diligence, I failed miserably. I fell for the scams such as “make money on auto-pilot” (they don’t tell you how to get the “plane” off the ground to begin with), I tried a Pay-Per-Click Campaign (that only cost me money, which was all I learned) and a bunch of posting ads on advertising boards (only left me poorer and accused of being linked with true scam artists).
In 2015, although I wasn’t desperate, I felt that I needed to do something. This time I really did do a lot of research, asked many questions and found Wealthy Affiliate. 
A few facts about me before trying out Wealthy Affiliate:
- I had never built a website.
- I was not very computer savvy – I used word processing, search the net, email, etc.
- I understood the basic concepts of affiliate marketing.
- I had basically no spare money to spend.
Today
- I can build professional looking, working websites and am making money online.
- I am no “sales person”, but I now understand online and affiliate marketing.
- I have greatly improved my writing skills.
- I have probably the greatest knowledge pool and database to draw on when I need answers to any questions I may have in the online world.
I have been taught skills that I never thought I would, or could, have. I even built and maintain the website and social media for my employer! I have also built a few sites for friends and another local business. I mention this to show that there is more to Wealthy Affiliate than “affiliate marketing”, a lot more.
No, I haven’t quit my day job yet and there is no timetable for that at this point. Wealthy Affiliate has done something that has made a huge difference to me – It has given me options. It doesn’t matter if you are eighteen or eighty, you can do this!
