When you grow up you tend to get told the world is the way it is and you’re life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family, have fun, save a little money.

That’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact: Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use.

Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.

OK now that we got that out of the way, let’s get started.  The goal of most Affiliate Marketers or self-starting entrepreneurs is to work from home.  Since we’re covering affiliate marketing in another discussion and series of reviews, I want to focus on smaller “work from home” opportunities.  Let’s not kid anyone here, you are not going to get wealthy with most of the work from home gigs that we’ll talk about in this section.  Then why cover it you ask?  Well, supplemental income generated by small jobs with which you can command your own hours and sometimes spend as much time as you like doing it will generate income that you’ll need to get your home business up and running as well as fill in the gaps when your HUGE affiliate marketing checks are lagging behind.

I have done work for a number of companies in a work from home capacity and have also investigated a pile of other ones.  For this series of discussions, I will review a few of them and give you a general idea of what to expect as far as revenue is concerned.

Stay tuned!

For now, back to the hotness that is affiliate marketing. We all know a guy who knows a guy that made $500,000 as an affiliate marketer last year.  Or we read a post on our favorite message board about one of the members who works part-time doing affiliate marketing and netted $50k on top of his 9 to 5 salary.  Do these folks from the affiliate marketing world exist?  You bet they do.  I’m going to help you get to that place in life.  It’s not easy, and it requires dedication and commitment, but I’m going to help you with real-life reviews of honest and legit resources.  We’ll also weed out the scams that are masquerading as legit opportunities and herald the ones that are actually guiding new affiliate marketers to income and wealth generation.

Will this site make money? I’m not sure yet.  Ideally I can cover my hosting costs and make a little from My Road to a Million.  If you look to the right, there are some advertisements.  I’m going to try and stay as low key as possible, but from time to time, I may run a promotion as a post and at some point will certainly have banner ads.  It’s life.  As much as I would love to do this ad-free, I’m a marketer at heart and if I actually get the traffic that I would like to see here, I should be able to capitalize on it.  That’s why you’re here right?
