Okay, so after I met her, I got started on this program. I didn't quite understand how something like was supposed to work, but being someone who always tried to find at least one thing to be optimisitc about, I tried it anyway. I marketed myself as a computer specialist and so I soon became someone who was very useful. In fact, she was pretty much computer illiterate so that just made me that much more valuable. She needed things like spreadsheets, posters, cut-up ads, tear off ads, business cards, lamination, letters, etc. Also if she needed any help with electronical equipment like installation or simply use it, I was the one to go to. I think throughout all the time I was with her, I probably made about 100 different pieces of work. Anyway, every few days or so, she would come over and ask me to do this and that. You're probably thinking why she didn't just use e-mail, but you have to remember she doesn't know any of that. This pretty much continued until for the whole time, but until February it was pretty much the only real work I did in this. She would often go to conventions and such so she would be out sometimes. It didn't bother me too much though. I really didn't see much happening, but considering I owe about $20,000 in student loans, you bet I want this to work or at least something work out. She was still gathering these organizations, so I won't say them now. I'll just list them either in the next post or the one after that. Later.

MLM - Part 1 (How it started)
Before I start, I want to make sure you know what MLM means. It stands for Multi-level Marketing. Look it up on Google, Wikipedia, or some other source if you need to know more. Anyway, it all started in December of 2006. Lots of "unfavorable" events transpired before hand, but that's irrelevant. The only relevance was that I was not satisfied with the current situation I was in and so I sought out to find better opportunities. In the months before, I think around July or so, I was looking to get into opportunities that produce a sturdy set of income such as those from a business or some type of operation. I sought various programs and studies different plans, but nothing was quite something someone of my background could achieve without driving myself insane. After all, I'm someone who just likes to relax or do things that generally put me in a positive mood. Well nothing worth mentioning appeared from July to November. In the mean time though, my mother had gone out and searched for something to gain capital as well. She couldn't help but do so, considering the situation that was displayed. She found some a woman that apparently was into marketing, MLM, and what many might call, but might not be, but might still be "Pyramid Schemes". She claims it is not one and she might be right, but that's not what other people might have thought. See that's a very important point right there and people need to understand if they are trying to communicate their ideals and information to another party. I'll quote this: "It is not what say that matters. It is what they hear." Basically, you could say all this jazz and jizz, but if you don't pay attention to see what all that translates into for them, then you're not putting your focus on what's critical here. Anyways, I'm getting off topic too much. My mother went and worked on that project with that other woman and around the beginning of December, she was rather frustrated at how it wasn't paying out and how the whole idea may have just been a wasted investment. Also the personality of that woman was just "something that many individuals just could not get along with". My mother entered with a helping heart hoping to learn and earn some revenue, but ended up having to owe that other woman money. That other woman (I'll call her Lady and yes I got that idea from Devil May Cry 3 if you understand what I'm talking about). Anyway, I soon noticed something was not right and went to see what was transpiring. Discussions were made and such and I volunteered to go out and pay what was due for my mother in hoping that I could put the system to better use or at least learn from this experience. So that day came I finally met Lady. I proposed my services and aid in exchange for success and so I gave this experiences a shot. Anyway, that's all for now. I'll continue next time. I'm putting this in parts since I really don't feel like typing all of this at once. Later.

Introduction
Greetings. Since this is my first post, I'll explain the exactly what type of information will be posted here. The posts here will inform you all of the various types of business opportunities I've been in to try to get to the goal of realizing financial freedom. I've been in this type of thing for a while now, so I'll try to see what I can remember from the beginning and catch up to the present where I'll then give up to date information on what's going on. Give me some time though to get the posts in though. I often like to post whole experiences or ideas out though rather than give a day to day review, although sometimes I might want to do that. It all depends on what I feel has happened so far. Okay I'll get to work on writing about my first project then. I might have the post done tomorrow or the next day or whenever. I do have to actually work on the experiences and projects themselves or else I won't be able to have things to write about that relate to the subject of this blog. Look out for it though.
