Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I don’t want to work. I am lazy. But not personally lazy. I am “other people” lazy. In other words, I am lazy when I have to work for other people but work hard for myself such as lifting weights, working out, making money in a job I enjoy, doing something I love.
I also hate running a timetable according to someone else. I dont like being obligated or committed. It is the lifestyle of being free that I love so much. I was tied to a career, a home and relationship and was msierable. I recently was laid off, filed bankrutpcy, and relationship is over. I am free and i love it.
I wish I could stay home and make tons of money. I hate having to be somewhere to make money for someone else only to increase my bank account with a small amount just to pay my bills. I tried starting an internet business so many times and failed. Its all a scam. Anything that is offered to me is a scam. The only way to make money is so find a niche ON YOUR OWN and start from there.
I wish I could do what I want and make my own hours. I love freedom! I need flexible hours. Maybe work two jobs acording my schedule? I actually got layed off from a full time teaching job and now work as a subsitute teacher and love it! I don’t make much money, but I don’t have to work if I don’t want to. I have no boss to answer to, dont have to work that day if I dont want to either. I only make 80 dollars a day, but I love it. No more teacher meetings, no papers to grade, different student faces everyday, if i had a bad day i never have to go back to that school again, and no coaching after school sports. it’s a dream job. Now if I could find another flexible job to supplement my subsitute job.
Again, I will work very hard if it benefits me personally like working out at the gym or writing or doing something i love. But having to start a career and work for someone else give me knots. I love having a flexible lifestyle.
Money is something we all need but im miserable when I have to work hard for someone else in order to make money to survive. That is the part that sucks.
I thought of several careers for fun or easy jobs–but most are low paying–
Flight attendant, actor, writer, subsittute teacher, call center job sitting on your butt, working hotel service jobs. Im much older in my 40’s and im done with the career, home, get rich, have a family lifestyle. I just enjoy being single, free, money in the bank and making my own hours and having fun. That is the best life. Free of chains!
Anyone got ideas for a lazy guy who wants to make a lot of money sitting on my butt and working my own hours?

Recently, the I.T. company I worked for closed it’s doors. The reason was due to the economy. Our client base either cancelled their services with us due to them closing their doors or just cutting back for economic reasons.
I didn’t like this but thought that I would really have no problems getting another job as I usually scanned the I.T. job listings online and there seemed to be plenty listed. I also figured that my CCNA & CCNA/Security certifications would be a plus as well, not to mention I am working on my CCNP.
Here is the problem. Now that I am actually in the job market, I still have no problem in finding a plethora of I.T. job listings, however, 99% of these listings have a stipulation that the applicant must have a current security clearance or in many instances, a top secret clearance. With out either of these, they will not even consider you. Years ago I never saw these requirements, though I do remember seeing that you must be able to get one of these clearances once employed; now, as said, they won’t even talk to you without having a current clearance. I never needed a clearance with the last company I worked for so I never thought about this either. I also see no reason why I couldn’t be cleared as well.
How does one get one of these clearances, or am I just screwed here with my certifications, training and experience and now unmarketable commodity?

I need a plugin/module built for tracking affiliate link purchases in joomla…. Who would I contract for the job? What type of work would that be considered?

I work full-time, and I’m looking for a second source of income, such a part-time job to help with the bills. I am VERY good with internet marketing and I have terrific computer skills. On employment websites for part-time jobs, I have seen ads for Google Affiliate Marketing.
Does anyone know how this works, or IF it works? Does anyone have experience with this that they can share with me? (serious answers, please). Are there any legitimate Affiliate marketing programs that someone can recommend? How much money is possible? Thank you for your help!

I am feeling very confused about my attitude towards my job. I’ve been living by myself in the DC area for a little more than 3 years now. Because I am by myself, I focus a lot of my attention to work. I think that it also has a lot to do with my workaholic nature as well. Things were going well at work for the last 3 years, and then I was transferred to a new group so that I can have a more specialized niche within my group. I was transferred from oil/petroleum-product markets to the natural gas market group. This had happened while I was on vacation. (Because even though I had expressed interest in working with the gas market group, I had qualms about working with the director because he has a reputation of being a jerk at the workplace.)
The director of the group first had a great impression and high expectations of me. But after several mistakes that I’ve made, I became the laughing stock of his group. And there doesn’t seem to be much chance of a turnaround. Almost all of my responsibilities have now been shifted to another analyst that they had originally recruited. I am now under a Performance Improvement Plan, and the staff in his group (including the director himself) just don’t seem to be interested in working with me anymore after 6 weeks with the group. And there doesn’t seem to be any patience for training either (but this has always been the culture in this group. “You either get it or you don’t. We will find someone else.”)
When I was transferred to the Gas Market Group, my old group (oil/petroleum-product group) hired someone else in my place. She has 3 years less experience than I do. When it became apparent that things were not going to work out with the gas market group, the director of my old group and several senior managers basically told me that I was screwed. They told me to start looking for a new job. The director of the gas market group seems to try to work with me somewhat, but he has better things to do.
Recently, I found out that the girl hired in my old spot is only being paid $3000 less than what I am currently paid, even though I have 3 more years of experience than she does. This, on top of the fact that I had express more interest in the Gas Market Group to make myself more valuable to some managers at my old group; still being told to work weekends without any kind of compensation; and the fact that I am the laughing stock in my new group, just makes me feel really negative about my job.
I go through the days with the attitude that I just don’t care. It makes all the crap that I am going through more tolerable, and it helps me get through the day. But I don’t think that this is a helpful attitude to have, considering that I am under a Performance Improvement Plan right now.
Is there anyone out there who can tell me what I can do to get through 6-7 more months at this job? To get somethingn positive out of this whole experience?

Jennifer, a talented photography major started a corporate photography business.She planned to solicit job from large corporations who needed pictures for their annual reports and websites. Although filling a unique niche, jennifer needed the security that the business would thrive and that she would earn enough to support herself and her child. She also hoped that she would spend less time each day calling on potential clients and more time doing actual shoots. As her small business consultant, which of the following suggestions would you have for Jennifer?
A) Jennifer should either take the risk necessary to devlope a small business, or go to work for someone else.
B) in the beginning, its doubtful that Jennifer will realize ease of entry, security, and good profits. She needs to make plans in the event that one or more of these does not materialize quickly.
C) Photographers can take pictures of a multitude of things. Its probably not good strategy to limit her business to only photographing the needs of large corporations.
D) Jennifer should definitely make time for herself each day so that she does not experience burn-out. If she pans well, leaping into her business will provide with her several hour of unstructured time each day where she can perfect her craft even more.
