    Lightbulb Money, It Drives Me.

    So, I this is going to be a quick little story about what not to do in life.

    First I am going to start off and say that Internet Marketing Is My calling, and with that being said let me get in to my life. My name is Justyn Sprinkle. I am currently doing internet marketing part time, and am working towards becoming very successful. My full time job is the Navy. Ya, I have been with this forum longer than I have been in. I joined because about 6 months back I had an epiphany that I wanted to do special ops, But I found out that swimming wasn't a strong attribute of mine, scratch that. I can't swim like a fish as the navy seals required, so they pushed me out. (now they don't really push you out, but the mind games is worse than the best sales page)

    So I DOR'ed (Drop On Request) and then They made me a Core man, a doctor. I hate doctors, but that is what they needed. So before I leave, I have an opportunity to go to The United States Navy Ceremonial Guard in D.C.

    I took it,( I hate doctors) and I work like 10-12 hour days and get paid shit.
    After I DOR'ed they dropped my bonuses, and advancement.(They ****** me)
    Now, I am an E-1, the lowest paygrade, and I deal with more screwed up management than at McDonalds. This **** is so unorganized it makes mice running in a maze look better.

    But really the real reason I am posting this, is so that everyone knows you can do what you want. Even though I am stuck in the worst position I am trying to make it happen. I am trying to make it work, I wont stop neither.
    I will work my long hours, come home Check my accounts, Post a YE entry, write some emails, and fix my blog. I wont stop going.

    So No one should give up their dreams or settle for anything less than what you want. Life is not about anyone but you. I don't know what you believe in, but I think we only have one life; live it.

    By that being said, Tonight do something. Make a blog, write an article. Get a business entity, SOMETHING. I was like 17 when I joined this forum. I am 20 in 1 month.

    I am getting old. Pretty soon Ill have to switch the OLDentrepreneur.com(jk)

    But really.

    Do something NOW, Don't wait. Everything thing you need can be found on the internet. If you need help with something PM me and I will help you to the best of my ability.

    so

    Lets Make Money.

    He Dr money

    I enjoyed reading your post, I can feel your determination. that's what it takes, That attitude and putting yourself out there on the line... "all in all the time". Those qualities are pretty admirable especially at such a young age.

    I believe your opportunity is close at hand. you just have to recognize it when it comes.

    Justyn,

    You have the determination it seems - that's a given. Maybe the military isn't the right place for you; a lot of times people join for the wrong reasons, and sometimes it's a kick in the butt to a realization they didn't quite see.

    I'm in the Air Force, and being E5, I can tell you it does get better. I came in as an E2 and made rank very fast. Once you're an NCO, it begins to change and the respect level jumps quite a bit. The biggest thing in anything, is never giving up. Keep pluggin' along with what you're doing and you'll get to where you want to be. Word of caution though - watch what you say on these forums, especially military wise. You never know who's watching; I learned the hard way once; you don't need to hit that speedbump.

    How much longer left on your enlistment? Are you able to crosstrain into another rating? (That's off-topic, but curious). Ever thought of doing the flightline side of the Navy instead of the water sports? Good luck.

    There are too many 'internet marketer' around. So i guess oyu need to be specific. I admit I am an internet marketer myself, but I like to be just a marketer, both online and offline.

    GREAT post! I really see that you know what it takes to succeed in Internet Marketing. There are a lot of young people like you and I who are so dumb founded by there youth and get wrapped up in the fast life and by the time they realize that they should be worried about there finances, it too late. YOU GET IT and applaud you for your drive, determined and will to survive in today crumbling economy. More young adult need to open there eyes to what's right in front of them and take FULL advantage of the endless opportunities. Keep up your great work and I wish you continued success.

    To your success....
