    I guess I'm just demented enough to feel more comfortable where everyone else is demented in the same way I am as opposed to a corporate settings in which people experience a whole different realm of dementia.

      HeySal,

      I just read some stuff you have out right now and if you are demented, pass the dementia.

      Oh, and to keep this on topic, I got into IM so I could work 24 hours a day choosing which 24 hours I wanted to work, drink gallons of coffee each day anywhere I wanted to drink it and and not have to breath recycled air under florescent lights.

    i like making my own rules, hate it if others make them for me, i have never been employed and IM offered all the ingredients i was looking for to make it on my own, the challenge is good for your brain power too.

    This is why I chose this road to internet marketing 8 years ago...

      Many reasons...

      I wanted the freedom and flexibility it provides

      I want to be rewarded for the effort I put in, not for showing up somewhere on time each day.

      I'm a creative person.

      I don't want a ceiling on how much money I can earn.

        I can set my own rules and policies regarding my work time and my time, which means, I can work whenever I want, and wherever I want. It's the idea that I am in control of my time and I am my own boss.
        And also, there are numerous possibilities of earning money and we can still earn while sleeping. That is not common in a work place, we are not paid to sleep, lol.

        What motivates me to work is my desire to learn more and keep on learning. Since I am a university faculty, I challenge myself to keep on improving and learning new things which can be applied in our everyday life.

    It is the only way to earn money even when I am not working. The flexibility is the main feature that attracts me a lot about this job.
