Hey guys,
I know this is the place of the gainers. I just want to share my own ideas about affiliate marketing. My personal experiences... 
in 2005 when i started then some of my friends said that its fake, they never gonna pay you, Waste of time and also you are ruining your carrier by doing these things without going for a 9-5 job as an ENGINEER.
In 2008 I struggled a lot made a platform in Online Marketing. I got married and i also involved my Wife (Who is everything for me) in online marketing.
Now I am the owner of a small company, Some people are working for me and i am earning a good amount.
Recently i met one of my old friend with whom i have completed my graduation is still doing job, Still he don't have enough to run his life, Still struggling for MONEY.
The Main support i got from my dad and my loving wife. I am leading a happy life with them. And we all are happy.
So the moral is that Don't think any kind of work is small. Make that small work BIG gradually. Struggle a lot , Work smartly , Don't be jealous of other's success. You will definitely get success.
Thanks 
Thank you for this therad buddy, it's very inspiring 
Same went with me, my friends told me its waste and i may end up a fail without being an ENGINEER and LO !! Im an Engineer and made about a million from AM..this field rewards the struggle and smart work, I'm just 22 !!
well said, take some of the profit, enjoy life
I find it funny how people will say things like "it's fake" without doing any sort of research.
@luscioust : let them say so, so the market is not so saturate, some people just don't get it what it takes to become successful in life. Only those hustle enough, deserve to be successful, every great house or car, always has an inspiring story behind
these type of people mostly exist in your 8-5, it is so suck
thanks guys for your support. 
Actually Life is life. It will take you to the place where you are best fitted. I believe support form your close one is a great thing.
thanks
Shhhh... don't tell them how much you made online.
