THE FORUMS
I am 19 years old, I'm a pretty good writer when i focus, and I like to think I'm pretty intelligent. I am on summer break right now, I have all the time in the world and i can come up with a couple hundred to start myself off on whatever the fuck internet marketers do. Please answer this question directly: does it seem reasonable or advisable for me to invest my time into this since, first of all, im not doing anything else except gaming and maybe working the odd job once in a while, and two, we are assuming that I have the intelligence and persistence to work at this for the long haul and not puss out. I'm willing to put in work towards my ideal lifestyle and career
Mate, travel and get some worldly experience. Sort out you first, what you want, your core purpose, let it fuel you, be your motivational driving force, and continue to learn.Prioritize that which is most important and understand the window of opportunity is short for us all. This isn't meant to develop scarcity mindset which it could and it is all really paradoxical.
Its meant to motivate you to take action and really have the balls to really go for the things you want. Its funny to cause, when I started pick up, it was to compete with my mates, aim for 10game, and really stand out.
Years later, having saw pics, infield footage, and pulling SMOKE SHOWs, the reality is that, being bloody brilliant or eloquent and or having some hollywood script is absurd. It is not necessary.
Much of this self development will blend into other areas and you will gain from what you put in. You will prosper but, you not to have a focus. For me, making my millions is it.
I got a gf, I still work cold approach and group dynamics but, pulling is not all that occupies my mind. I also got banned on the forum (cheeky?) without warning and returned only cause Tyler freed me.
Let me just say, I am back into school, I am focused on my path, on my core purpose, gf happened during my ban from the forum, and best of all, I was not seeking anything of it. It just happened.
Stay focused, be on your path, do not obsess over pick up, let it be apart of your life, and yet, you are in control of your purpose and taking action for this cause.

IMO, unless you REALLY dedicate yourself to it (like having a normal work week) you will never build a passive income that would eventually lead to a reduced work week. If I had seen a few opportunities when I started a few eyars ago, I would be making 5-10k a month, but I was lazy and now these opportunities closed = hindsight is 20/20.
Exactly. you need normal work weeks to reach those reduced work weeks for a while. But they won't last all that long... but enough to travel around a bit most likely :).IMO, unless you REALLY dedicate yourself to it (like having a normal work week) you will never build a passive income that would eventually lead to a reduced work week.

As for the 16 hour/day workweek disbelief.. Well when I started I used to work at least 6-8 a day on IM on top of school/part time job. Basically all I did was school or summer job + IM and going out 2-3 nights a week AT MOST. Back then I would also leave the club early because all I wanted was to make money. I'd go back home and force myself to work until I passed out.
I want to go back to working so much but... going out 5+ nights a week is so addicting once you get repeatable results.... Need a GF so I can lose interest in other girls... Then again I don't want one :P

Sup,
Im just getting started with this so take my advice for what it's worth. I'm currently learning on www.ppc-coach.com ; its basically web site where you pay per month to have access to and receive advice and coaching from experts in the field (and people just like you as well).
A few guys are making like 30k/month after only 6 months, a couple others are making decent income (40-50k/year) and the rest (which is a lot) have never made a dime off internet marketing after months/years into this. When I say never made a dime it just means they've spent more money than they've earned.
Guys making 30k/mo frequently say they've failed and lost money non-stop for the first 2-3 months before making any, so grab your balls!
Good luck!
I don't want to know what these "other guys" are making. Since you're using the ppc-coach product, can you share YOUR progress?

To OP,
About 2 weeks ago I found out about IM and jumped straight in. I signed up for PPC-Coach, and I'm on the forum at source wave (great info on keywords, thankyou to person who made that)
Ive burned through about $300 so far already, and havent made any profit. Ive made about $7 in revenue.
At first I was like "Yeahh gunna start making loads of money straight away and quit my part time job"
but then you realize its a skillset you gotta learn just like anything else. But at the end of the day, the internet is a huge marketplace, so there is huge opportunity to make money.
Ive been putting in 3 hours on this stuff everyday, on top of gym, revision, college. Just like learning pickup, achievement = time,effort,money
The way I see it is its worth all the investment, time and effort in the first X months, as when it pays off, you can work on your own terms and travel the world
all depends on you. If you dont mind working hard as fuck but want to escape the 9-5 rat race, go for it.

Heavy article. Although there's some truth to it, the article is also pretty biased. It's implying the whole world of IM is a scam, instead of acknowledging there are some bad apples within a mostly legit business space. I mean is a business model a "scam" just because a product is "useless"? Video games and Facebook are pretty useless IMO, but are they "scams"? Well you might reply yes lol, but you can easily extend this argument and say the whole economy is a scam or giant ponzi scheme, to which Adam Smith may quip "yes, but do you have a better alternative?". It's the world we have to live in and you're either gonna thrive in it by taking action or sit around and complain.

Also, if you read about people making a million a month from IM and think that you only need 1k/month and that will take you far less work, you're wrong. Most people in IM have the goal of making 1k/month, which makes it the most competitive and hardest goal. Only a handful of people have a goal of 1k/day. However, to set that goal you first have to get to 1k/month.
