I left school at 16 years old, with no qualifications at all, enlisted into the military the very day I left my high school mainly out of necessity, it was that or jail. I cooked for myself from about the age of 8 years old, I don’t have any friends in high places, or a background in marketing, I have an IQ of 94 (equivalent of a 14 year old) and severe dyslexia. I’m a dumb ass, but this website, is less than a month old and is growing in popularity. Testament to the fact you don’t need a $50,000 education to make it online.

  • Necessity

Man kind is born out of necessity, we needed to treat the ill – we built hospitals, sell coffee beans – cargo ships, tell the world what were thinking – Internet. For me it was about the need to be someone. Somebody who people turn to when they need help or need motivation. A person who’s readers hold in high regard and say good things when telling their friends about my website. Growing up with no help at all, it’s that necessity that drives me to help others.

  • Route taken

Your route doesn’t determine your destination, but it can influence how you travel. For instance I didn’t fit in at school but couldn’t understand why, so I hid away from the crowds, kept my opinions to myself and didn’t tread on any toes. I am sure that this is the reason I’m compelled to help people and make something of myself, and you know what… I’m doing it every single day. Look around the site and read the comments, People are talking about something I have created!

  • Family

When you’re responsible for another human life it changes you in a way you can never plan for. I grew up without a family and I never ever want my family to have to fend for themselves. Providing everything they ever want (Which, credit to them is nothing) and need, and letting them know dreams can come true. All the time my family say to me, How many hits you had today? What are people saying? How does that work? How do people know your name? etc etc My family talk to me like I’m the most famous person in the world, and that is the best feeling in the world!

  • Helping hand

Being able to to be there when someone says ‘Look, I don’t know where I’m going wrong’ Is what this site was built for. I believe that no one has to suffer in silence, as long as they’re prepared to listen and help themselves. I’m not a religious person at all,.. well that’s not exactly true I think I have a guardian angel looking after me, but that’s as far as it goes, and this site gives me that guardian angel status.

Dunce hat

Again, if your like me, don’t know where to go or what to do, but have a desire to do something, don’t be put off by the lack of knowledge or education, just go for it!
