I've been working on the Web since 1997, from Web Designer to Web Developer to Web Project Manager.
Back in 1995 my best friend began "fiddling"with a website as a means to create a passive stream of income. We all laughed at him. Today, he makes over 70K per year with his site.
I've been steadily learning about Affiliate Programs for the last two years. Currently I have two major sites that use Affiliate Programs, Google Ads and other passive income methods.
My goal is to be semi-retired by 45, and be able to focus a larger portion of my energies on non-profit causes.
Beyond that, my goals are to be able to do volunteering, humanitarian and solidarity work around the world without concerns about "where the next buck is coming from."
