My online endeavours have paid dividend in the past few months so I did the deed and set myself up as a business.

Granted this is secondary to my full time job but its nice to see an income coming in from my online efforts, so much so that its of a value that needs to be declared

I feel very happy with myself...it only took 4 years!

Are any of you self employed for your onine endeavours?

    Congratulations! How much do you bench press?
    1. mugshot
      140kg at the moment, I want to hit around 160 by the end of the year!

      I used to bench 330lbs at a body weight of 155. I don't know how that translates into kgs.
    3. mugshot
      330 is 150kg, did you do this for reps?

      I do 310lbs for 3 sets x 10 reps at the mo.

      Im 210 lbs though lol
    4. nothingprofound
      No. 330 was my max at that weight.

    Thanks both, Ive been on the internet for four years...and to be honest started out as an "Internet Marketer" doing the rounds of the old Ebooks but learnt my lesson, taught myself what to do and have a proper business!

    It feels good

      I had not seen your blog but just checked it out. I'll blogroll it & check it from time to time. Rock on.

    Congrats brotha. Way to hang in there and get it done. I look forward to that.
    @NP- Dude. That's damn good. I hit 365lb at 160 back in the day. Now I prefer the high intensity cross conditioning with free body weight exercises and moderate weights. It keeps me at 6% BF at 42yrs old. Fitter & more ripped than most 20 somethings.

    Congrats Yeah I make money online but more on stocks now. I was on the internet trying to make money for a couple years too before I actually started making money. It really is a trial and error learning process and I am glad you made it!

    Congratulations! I am toying with a number of business ideas to increase our too low household income, and I did place a free ad offering copy-editing, editing and writing services. Will have to see if there are any takers. Thinking of some other ways to make money, but I am very leary of multi-level-marketing schemes.
    1. mugshot
      why not try rentacoder.com and bid for some writing work? You can make some good money if you put the time and effort in.

      Ill message you my Email addy to see if there is anything I can help with.
