Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I am moving to Portland in January 2012 but I am going to visit this coming week to check out how I like it. I would love any info any one has about Portland: work, where to live, where to find places to live, bookshops, farmers markets, parks, transportation, neighborhoods, downtown, places to hangout, best kept local secrets, best places to eat, etc. Anything you can tell me will be helpful. I have done some research in books, but I am looking for something beyond the tourist guides. I want to experience the local culture.
I am going to be attending PSU in a graduate book publishing program in the winter semester.

Why is it so hard to start an online business? All I want to do is work for myself, generate income for my family, and work from home. Of course I would LOVE to make millions of dollars, BUT, I would be 100% happy just making a decent income working from home while keeping my kids with me. Can someone help me? I don’t want or need any scammy advice, just real, honest help. I’ve been trying for 4 years to start something and nothing seems to work, or it makes me a little money and then stops. I know how to create my own website, I know about social marketing (or at least enough I think), I know a fair amount about SEO, but I think maybe I just can’t find the right niche? I also can’t seem to get my websites out there enough, so I obviously don’t know enough! HELP!!

I was think of going and getting my bachelors degree to teach early childhood education or elementary education along with special education. Then getting a certification in autism or applied behavior analysis. Then working for a while. If I decide it’s not for me going back to school(maybe work will pay for it) to get my masters in occupational therapy to work with children with disabilites.
OR
Go to this good private community college down the street for my associates degree in nursing sit for my exams and become certified. Then find a job(hopefully working somewhere in pediatrics). And on weekends/evenings(when I don’t work) taking a bridge program RN to BSN once a week to get my bachelors. Work for a year maybe more, find my niche. Then go back to school to be a nurse practitioner specializing in pediatrics or neonatal.
Opinions??

I did some work with a guy called Conductor. He was looking for a position as a booking agent. as we did some work for Janet Jackson’s after parties the Gentleman scammed my Company out of 15 thousand dollars. And pinned my investors on me to pay back. I almost lost everything. Now that i am back booking. He has company called Conductor Works and claims he is affiliated with IMG Universal. I contacted universal and they said that label is not affiliated. Please let me know your stories

we can only hope—of course they would need to fire all the dimwits that work there now but im sure you can find a few extra hotties ready to graduate and pay them top dollar-fox is first rate pay or so i hear-dress em up all in tight skirts—oooo la la-nice to be a man!
