Why it sucks to be an 17 y.o. Affiliate Marketer.
It is really great to make money online when you are just 17 y.o. because you don’t have to support the family yet, which means I can invest more, it also means that I have more money, and I even don’t ask my parents to give me any money, because I can afford all the things which I want. And I am building my wealth, which is very useful when I will start to live on my own. But there is also the other side of this “luxury”.
Network managers, and networks rarely even want to speak with me. Because they think if this guy is only 17 y.o. how the hell he can know something about affiliate marketing. Other people in forums and so on, don’t take me seriously when I start to speak about affiliate marketing, again the same reason that I am just 17 y.o. Banks are just “WTF ??” when I want to cash my check. Parents and friends at first thought that I am selling crack to make money. And one guy who was reading my blog, sent me an email abusing me that I am just an brain dead teenager and I am a loser. And I can bet my PayPal account that 75% of the people who visit this blog they suddenly leave when they read “About Me” page and find out that I am just a teenager.
As you see, it is very difficult to be an 17 y.o. affiliate marketer. Most people even don’t take me seriously and they’re like “Step back, kid”. It’s hard, but what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.

Hey, saw your comment on John Chow…. you’re in Latvia? Did you see the Latvians proceed through the opening Olympic ceremonies? What were they wearing….do come over to my blog and tell me…. sorry for this Off-topic comment. I was trying to look out for LAtvia but missed them. Feel free to erase this comment when you’ve read it:)
This is something what it looks like - http://www.diena.lv/upload/article/0061/607438/203780_BIG.jpg
BTW that Lion logo on the guy’s back isn’t Peugeot’s car logo
This years Canadian uniforms were really, really similar to what Latvia used during the last Olympic games. The color combination, and the layout was almost the same. If Canadians wouldn’t have title “Canada” on them, I would think those are Latvians
Well, if you look at the flags, Canada’s red is a much brighter, more of a cherry red, whereas Latvia’s is a darker, almost burgundy, deep mulberry red.
Those are nice uniforms, reminds me of the Swiss ones. How many Latvians were in the Olympics this year?
