Well. I am almost a pensioner but without much of a pension to look forward to. I
was formerly trained as an electrical/electronic engineer and late moved into sales
selling electrical/eclectronic test equipment for most of that time. I had little
excursions into selling other products but now I am out of technical sales after the
telecoms industry went into decline about 4 or 5 years ago. When I was in sales I
did lots of driving but I was not paid for the driving only for the selling part. Now that I
am out of sales I still do lots of driving for which I now get paid and I don’t have to
worry about achieving sales targets. My present driving job I have always
considered to be a fall back job while I look for other ways of generating an income. I
have attended enough bootcamps and seminars to learn of the alternative ways to
making money which does not involve trading time for money. For a long time I have
wanted to get a revenue from the internet and there are lots of different ways to do
it. I just need to find one that interests me sufficiently to make me to stick at it until I
succeed. The hard part is turning the theory into practice and sticking with something
long enough to make a success of it.I have dabbled in the stock market and property
and whilst I had a little success in the stockmarket, I also had my failures so it did
not last too long though it is still something I might go back to once I can increase my
cashflow. Buying property in Cyprus has been a learning experience and whilst I
have been fortunate in some respects there are still some issues ahead that will
have to be overcome. Nevertheless, property over the long term is usually a good
investment and this is one revenue stream which in the longterm should pay off. The
internet is my next target for generating an income stream. There are many ways to
do it and I just have to find something that works and I enjoy doing. As I am a techie
sort of person I have been teaching myself computing skills and I have build a few
websites to promote my properties and a few other products.For now, I want to
concentrate on the internet and earning a living from marketing and advertising.
