Another day on the super info highway

Hello all,

Well I've been a member of this blog for awhile now, and I've decided to try another route to posting these blogs. Before I was more interested in just getting posts up and running, but now I think the traditional blog post is going to be more the standard for me from here on in. There has been a lot happening the last month or so, and this may be a good way to get some of the massive amounts of info down on "paper"... so to speak. I have decided to begin a journey, an online business journey to hopefully, a better living. I really can't complain too much about my life, I'm married to a beautiful woman, have two gorgeous biological children, whom I don't get to see much, but I Love 'em to death, and three step children, whom I love as my own. We make plenty of money and never hurt for the basic necessities of life. But I guess when you get to my age something "clicks" and you either have to make a decision to change, or just continue and sock away enough to retire on and just live out your life to the best of your ability.

Now that might sound great to some people, but I've always been the entreprenuer type and have started several businesses in the past. They did O.K. but nothing to jump up and down about and run to the bank with a fistful of dollars kind of business. The only thing I received from those business ventures that is everlasting is a lack of sleep, and lots of work ethic, oh yeah and some public relations experience yikes!!

Anyhoo, now we have the explosion of the internet and all it has to offer. I do have college level html and some programming language backgrounds, but I can honestly say my abilities with programming is limited to Front Page and some HTML. With all that said I will start a chronicle of my progress and hope someone will follow me in vain. I am going to try to jot down as much as I can about the steps I take on a daily basis so maybe anyone who is trying to get a business started up will avoid some of the errors I have made along the way. Excellent, my little way of helping out someone in need, I'm feeling good about this already =).

So..... let's see it's been what, about a month since I started this endeavor, and so far I have spent about $5,000 out of pocket. Now to some that may be a drop in the proverbial bucket to me, it's substantial!

1) Spent $3,000 with some whacked out beach-bum schmuck sitting in his lawn chair, laptop on his..... lap. Back-drop in Hawaii, ocean in the background, palm trees overhead, sitting next to a pool. Now what the hell? This guy got me right from the get go with his upside down funneling crap, funneled me right into a spiraling out of control financial nightmare!! I was sucked into the fun funnel and landed squarely in the jaws of the global resort network, Now if you are familiar with this system, and there has to be a few of you who have suffered the same smack to the side of the head that I have, you know that it's not all pineapples and stiff drinks like ol Tye Coughlin is portraying. After dropping 3 g's on the Global Resorts you've gotta spend untold amounts of money on online and offline advertising, bring in the numbers throw them happily into the massive sucking unrelenting funnel of oh sooo much fun, and plop! Out the other side comes a bouncing baby internet entrepreneur wanta be, crying and kicking and frothing for money to renew his recently abolished BANK ACCOUNT! I really hold no animosity towards ty and the gang for sucking food out of my families mouths, after all I was the one who stuck my neck in the trap and let it snap off my head. But really, I suppose after all a person can make a go of it if you keep after it, I just lost patience with all the hoopla, getting on the phone for hours on end to listen to these funnel faced gurus preach about how they are the greatest since cream corn and how we could do the same if we just follow what they've done for the next 6 to 12 months and we too could make a dollar a day for a week on and on and on and blah blah blah, I'm pukin cause there isn't any food in the house and the wife wants to stick my head in a trap like the one I already did but much larger because I took her ability away to go shopping for several years....... It's all good though, just a $5,000 lesson and oh boy let me tell you what a lesson I learned!! Of course this will have to continue tomorrow where I'll give you massive insight to the Global Resort Network and it's appendages to include:

Lawn chair Millionaire: I haven't decided if I like this yet, I'll tell ya tomorrow or next month who knows?

Carbon Copy Pro: snicker, snicker hack cough yeah lots to look at here!! I think this means regurgitated marketing crap they should of dumped 6 years ago!!

And several other rediculous little subsale categories they try to suck you into with their reverse sucking funnel of fun filled family splitting till they have no money left systems. sorry I got a little carried away. Until tomorrow good night

We'll see ya tomorrow
