WHY do you want to make money online (with CB)

    It would be great to know why everybody spends hours and hours in front of the computer trying to make more and more money online. You spend hours researching niches, creating landing pages, tunning campaigns...

    So give 5 reasons why do YOU do it, and what amount of income would you be satisfied with?


    ME:

    1: I just bought some land - repayments are going up and up. I NEED an extra income.

    2: I want to eventually flip properties. Buy a house, renovate, sell. This would be fun.

    3: I want to buy enough properties so I can live off the rent. 4 investment properties should do it.

    4: My parents have given me a lot. I want to buy them each a really nice car/house when they retire.

    5: I never want to say, "no, I can't do that this weekend. I dont have enough money".

    What income will I be happy with: $3500/week ($500/day)


    So, what about you?

    Its a hobbie, and it allows me to spend $40-$50 a day eating out, $6.50 for a pack of smokes, and $8.99 on a 6-pack. Plus I can buy a new gun once a month. works out well. It keeps me out of trouble and I find it fun.

    Easy. I want to quit my job and be a stay-at-home Dad...one who is always there for his three little girls.

    I would love to push $1000 a day. Why?

    1. Because BMW's, eating steak, Being financially wealthy, And Living a great life is not cheap no matter how you put it! (Although, my friend could hook me up with a cheap lease for a new 328, I'd rather buy the car.)

    2. I would have to agree with swerd on re-investing the money into real estate, or some other short term, hi-risk , marginable ROI investments.

    3. I am a firm believer from the school of capitalism. He/SHe who has more lives better! Not necessarily the case for some, but the reality is, it takes a ton of funds to survive and have the 'good' life.

    4. Because, compared to a job, I can "own" this operation, just like any other business owner, and classify myself as the shareholder, and avoid "double taxation". And I can write off everything!!!!

    5. My short time on this planet, is super valuable! Yours should be also! I also want to be able to give to my friends and family, just in case god forbid anything ever happens to them!

    Yes, those five reasons will make friends and enemies here, but you have to realize again, that life is short, and consider that you have only, ONLY one life to do it, I couldn't think any less.

    TFG

    Yep, about $250 a day is all it would take for me to give up the 'day job'.

    Unfortunately, after 6 months of this...having a little trouble getting off the ground. I'm getting a couple hundred a MONTH...but that won't cut it.

    I'll get there.

    I want to make money online to prove anyone that you don't need a high school diploma (in Israel - a series of annoying tests) to make a living. I'm still going to get that diploma, but with less worries.
    And, of course, to be financially relaxed.
    I'd be happy to make $100K a year or more (which is a lot in Israel).

    Interesting! Great post Swerd.

    Best thing I've read so far: -I Want to show people what a 18 year old boy can accomplish with the internet without having to work for someone << cheers to that. Nadavs: you too!! Wonderful to see you doing well and attaining other goals too.

    I want to simply continue to be in charge of my time/life. After a few years of ups/downs, you realize there is a method to the madness and it's not to speed up but to slow down and enjoy life - CB makes that easier to enable (and is one of MANY networks you should all be taking advantage of - leverage).

    Money/power/fame/shiny 'stuff' is one thing - but the most simple and important is to free your time, from there - money and 'stuff' is not as important nor valuable to you...

    Best of luck to you all making it big this year!

    These are the reasons why I love internet marketing and not having a "real job."

    1. no boss.
    2. no schedule so i can take vacation when i want.
    3. no getting up early (unless i want to.)
    4. it's 4:46 AM on a wednesday night and i don't care.
    5. the game of it all is sort of fun. the work i do builds up to my own increased income. when you work at a "real job" for "the man" it doesnt matter that much what you do or dont do really.

    as far as how much i would be happy with? my big goal is to average 1000/day in profit... but i'm happy with what i'm making now (approx 150) - as it's enough money to not have a day job and live comfortably. my only thing is that i would like to get more income streams coming in so that i dont have to worry about "what if?" ... ie "what if this income stream stops... then i may be barely getting by..." that sort of thing. more financial security. that would be nice. i don't care much about fancy cars and that sort of thing.

    I would say short and simple.

    I want to make money online, because I want to have a beautiful life, as it's only ONE.
