Default Re: When's the last time you had a job?

I'm very proud to say I walked into my boss's office on the 3rd October 2003 with my resignation letter in hand and wearing a VERY large grin
I replaced my great full-time income as an investment banker with my internet income.

I've been happily working from home full time since then and I celebrate the anniversary in BIG style every year.

I love my 'job' more than I thought possible.

Bianca

P.S. personally I have no use for a million dollars, if I did have it I would just spend 70% of it on helping those in need...
That's what I like about you. I have posted this before, but you'll like it if you haven't seen it:

I am still working at my job. I have a plan in progress that, if it goes according to plan, should allow me to quit my job (or at least scale back my hours-I like the people I work with!)..

I have to say less than 2 years ago I worked as a marketing consultant; but this was
invaluable to me in the real world setting.

I learned that EVERY small business that is under the 5 year mark needs people just like you - IM'ers most of them have NO CLUE to how to make money online - yet the solution can be as simple as helping them set up an email marketing campaign and charging a monthly fee for services rendered - this is how I got started years ago and I still make money doing this and ANYBODY can do this for a business and help improve their bottom line.

I ran a BBS back in the early 90s (pre-internet). I wish I had a clue back then, I could have monetized it so easily. I gave away so much for free out of my own pocket.

Default Re: When\'s the last time you had a job?

I had to become an Internet Marketer out of necessity as I am extremely unemployable. =) Seems I always had a better idea than the boss did and had the habit of always going to war over it. Go figure. The last job I had was in 1999 when I was a commercial sales rep selling security cameras.

I had a job as a part time paid table tennis coach in 2003.

Even then I couldn't really remember what it was like to have a regular job.

Haven't really done that for something like 18 years.

Kindest regards,

October 13, 2006 was my last day.

I worked for a small, privately owned software development/consulting firm in the financial services industry for over 10 years. Worked with a great group of folks but I never want to work for someone else again!

Even if I had millions, I still wouldn't quit my day job. I love the people I work with, the hours work for me, I make decent money, and I get to help people every single day which fills my life with self accomplishments and purpose.
