I have had websites for about 14 or 15 years. I have been trying to monetize them the entire time. While I was homemaker, I could not figure it out. While I worked for a Fortune 500 company, I could not figure it out. I only began making in-roads after I became homeless.<p>My father was career military. He never figured out how to make good money as a civilian. He tried commissioned sales work. He tried wage labor. He had his own business. He often spent months at a time unemployed. I think my mother bitched less when he was unemployed than when he was doing door to sales, spending money for gas, and making nothing.<p>I have 6 years of college. I am far from dumb or incompetent. But being in a position where my income depended on certain kinds of behaviors was a tremendous mental block and practical barrier to me learning how to make money online.<p>I am out of time for today. I am not sure I explained that very well. If it needs clarification, it will have to happen tomorrow.
