Leaving The Day Job

It begins…

Hello. I’m Monty and I’d like to tell you about my blog.

So this is the story: I’m a fulltime IT and web geek who’s reached a bit of a plateau in what an optimistic person might term “my career”. I’m no longer happy cranking out code and resetting passwords for forgetful users but neither am I really sure where I want to go next in my life.

As a small side project I’ve been toying around with affiliate marketing. Since starting at the beginning of the year I’ve managed, much to my surprise, to bring in a little extra pocket money. This month though my affiliate income has somehow managed to double (don’t get excited, we’re still talking about a three figure sum here). And this has lead to me wondering if there’s something here worth making a go of fulltime.

Now, I’m not crazy (the talking cat next door told me so) so I’m not about to jack in the day job on some bonkers plan to get rich quick on the internet. But, I am going to be putting a lot more effort into my online business activities and the long term goal, way, way off on the horizon at the moment, is to be able to quit regular work and live off my affiliate income.

I’m going to be blogging about my progress right here and will hopefully have some half way interesting or useful tips to pass on. Remember, I make the no-brainer ballsups so you don’t have to!
