I was in the corporate world for over three decades in marketing and sales. An Economics graduate, I hold an MBA degree. When I went online to make money, I quickly found that the internet is wide expanse of something where one easily loses one's way and where one could spend a whole just doing things but achieving nothing.

I fell victim to a scam and hopped from one programme to another. One of my lessons is that all your degrees count for next to nothing if you don't have the skills and attitude needed for success online.

Also, I found that many promoters over promise to the point of deception and wannabes fall for this to their loss.

What to do? Learn the basics of making money online from a good source and then apply your knowledge and skills diligently.

I'm married, and we've been blessed with four charming girls. We became grand parents to a lovely boy in February, 2011.
