About

I’m an online entrepreneur reaching for the ultimate lifestyle. Money isn’t everything but it makes a huge difference in the quality of life that one wants to achieve.

A strong believer in following a natural and organic diet as possible to maintain health because without health you can’t fully enjoy life.

Am also a proud cat lady who believes pets make us more compassionate as they don’t judge or have high expectations of us (except they want their food on time & a clean litterbox!), are very loyal and only want to be loved and cared for.

Having an optimistic approach is a good thing to have because even if you have failed, you can always pick yourself up and try again. When you think about it, the only person you can really count on is…yourself.

I started on the internet selling collectibles on ebay and did well. Those monies afforded me real estate and other investments, where eventually bought a nice large home. Yes, you can make money on the internet selling just about anything!

Since then I moved on to other areas, specifically buying and selling domains & websites. So instead of flipping houses, I was selling internet real estate.  What a whole new world that opened up to!

And I didn’t have a clue about how to start a blog from scratch or that I could even flip sites for profit. I was determined to succeed and learned on my own how to build sites. Sometimes things aren’t as difficult as you think they are, and taking that step to learn new things can lead to profitable ventures.

I don’t limit myself to one source of income from my online activities. The various ways I make money are through affiliate marketing, selling domains, ads on my sites and even selling items on kijiji.

Don’t think that my life has been easy breezy, as it hasn’t. I worked hard for the things I achieved and made mistakes along the way that cost me too. I’ve been up and I’ve been down. I’ve financially achieved a lot and lost a lot, so been at both ends of the spectrum. I don’t believe in giving up. You have to keep working toward achieving your goals no matter how far you have to reach to obtain them.

Through my years of online experience — even though things have changed since I started — one thing is for sure, there is always an opportunity to make money. Before it was easier to rank your sites with google to get traffic to them but with google’s ever-changing algorithms and social media becoming the bigger aspect, made it tougher so you learn to adapt yourself.

And I’m definitely not a social media butterfly hanging around facebook like my friends do, as I see it as a waste of time.  I rather use that time to grow my online business than make someone else who is already rich even richer. So I use it strategically. Like pinterest to get traffic to my blog and instagram to grow my cat feature account. Those basically are the two main social media sites that I use and believe can get me to where I want to go.

I hope my blog can show — through my journey to financial freedom — that you can adapt yourself to achieve your financial goals.
