What Did My Great Grandma Have To Do With Affiliate Marketing?

In 1850, when she was only 17 years old, my great grandmother, Mathilda, arrived in California with her three older brothers and her parents, who were among the hundreds of thousands of Americans and foreigners who traveled to the Western state in hope of striking gold.

The story that was passed through generations in my family insists that Mathilda, without any help, found one of the richest gold fields in Sierra Nevada. There is another story about her scandalous love affair with a handsome yet married man, who subsequently fathered my great grandfather. But we'll talk about that some other time.

I'm sure you understand by now that Mathilda was an exceptional woman. The enormous fortune she had obtained in 1852 in California, was totally lost by her grandson, my grandfather, in 1929 in New York, when the stock market crashed. Fortunately, she had died 9 years earlier and was spared the disaster.

"Why are you telling me your family's history?" I can almost hear you asking me now, "What does your grandmother have to do with affiliate marketing?" You'll know soon, my friend. Don't lose your patience.

Hundreds of thousands of people went to California in search of gold. The few ones that found it and became incredibly rich were those who seized the opportunity when it presented itself to them; second, they had the courage to take risks in pursuit of their dreams; and third, they had both the knowledge and the tools to go about it. Mathilda was one of them. Her legacy is true to this day: "He (or, in her case, She) who dares - conquers."

This, my friend, is all there is to it. Affiliate marketing on the Internet is the Gold Rush of the 21st century. Don't miss out on your chance to be one of the few. Take hold of the opportunity today, before it's too late. If you want to fulfill your wish to strike gold, have courage, find the information and the tools, and go hunt it!

The Internet, although already so advanced and overwhelming, is still in its diapers. It is as California was in the middle of the 19th century, full of hidden gold. Only now, instead of a pan and a shovel and hard physical work, you can sit at home in front of your computer. Only the gold is the same precious gold. Anybody can do it, you too.

Today is the day. You don't want to realize, 5 or 10 years from now, that you've missed the train. Always remember Mathilda: "He who dares - conquers."
