How many times have you thought about what can I do with my life? The 9-5 grind is getting to you, and you don’t know if you can make it another day.
In this article, I am going to tell you about a real job you can do from home. One that will answer your question and empower you to create a legacy for you and your family. Or empower you to retire from your work with an income to live exactly like you dream of.
Workplaces today expect so much more of their employees. It is more about the money and less about the employee. You feel unappreciated and unwanted.
But what on earth are you going to do? You make good money, and you don’t know of any other job you can do to make that much.

What can I do with my life?
I have an idea. Now don’t blow it off until you have heard all about it. It is an incredible opportunity to build an online business blogging and doing affiliate marketing.
You want to make the same or more money, and you want respect. You can take control of your life and determine just how far you want to go.
Before we go any further, I want to say this is not one of those make money fast or get rich quick schemes. It is a business, and it does require effort. But the job you are doing now is no different. Your job now is going nowhere. You may love your job, but you don’t make enough money, or you can’t be home with your family, or you don’t have enough money to retire.

How Can I Change My Life?
Drum Roll,,,, introduction
I will introduce you to a platform to build an online business and do affiliate marketing. The company is Wealthy Affiliate. So you say you don’t know anything about online business and what is this affiliate marketing?
I didn’t know much either. I am 62 and everything I know I learned at Wealthy Affiliate. It is so incredible that sometimes I don’t know where to start. But I don’t want to bore you either. So let’s get right into this.
Wealthy Affiliate
Wealthy Affiliate is a website building platform founded and designed by Kyle Loudoun and Carson Lim in 2005. It is 13 years old and has lasted the test of time and continues to grow and evolve as the internet changes.
There are many website building platforms a person can use today but what is unique about this one is the training. You can set up a website in a matter of minutes but what do you so with it. How do you use it to make money?
At wealthy affiliate Kyle teaches you everything, I mean everything step-by-step for you to get ranked on google and make money. Let me tell you a bit about this process. It is incredible. But first I want to talk about affiliate marketing so you can better understand this aspect of your business.
What is affiliate marketing?
Affiliate marketing is when you join with a company to promote their products. You promote the product on your website with a particular link. When someone purchases a product the company then pays you a commission. It is a win, win situation. Here is the video to help give you a better understanding.
Become an online business owner
We have touched on the part where you ask “what can I do with my life?” I want to dive deeper into the incredible platform of wealthy affiliate and how it can change your life.
I often talk about my business with friends, not to promote it but because I am so excited about what I do. I love being at home with my husband. I love that I can get out of my chair anytime I want to and do something else. I love that just tonight I went out with friends to eat on short notice.
There was a time when I would have had to work and had to make plans in advance but tonight a couple called, and we met with them to eat in 30 minutes. I worked weekends and holidays but not anymore. It is the most incredible feeling to have control over my life.
The excitement overwhelms me.
What Can I Do With My Life?
Oh MY Gosh, here I go again getting off the subject. I get so excited about my life now as an affiliate marketer with Wealth Affiliate I tend to get off track. But wait I do have one more thing to share.
When my kiddos were young, I often thought as I tried to go to sleep, what can I do with my life? I am stuck in a job that tells me what I can and can’t do. I have to work all the time and miss school functions and important life-changing events. Don’t get me wrong I loved nursing but I love my family more, and I was not allowed to put them first If I wanted to pay the bills.
Back to Wealthy Affiliate
In a nutshell, Wealthy affiliate is blogging. It is a business that you own. It is a platform that teaches you everything you need to know to make money online. It is a step-by-step training. Incredible support. Time-tested and proven to work. It is following your passion and creating a dream.
You can do this job. You may say I can’t blog or I can’t write. Yes, you can because Wealthy Affiliate teaches you everything. You choose a niche (a passion), and you promote it. It is all quite simple when you have the right tools. And with Wealthy Affiliate, you are given the right tools.
Tools
1. An intelligent mind (you already have this)
2. A desire to improve (your desire is strong because you are here)
3. A need to work from home (family, peace, and love of home)
4. The proper platform (Wealthy Affiliate!)
5. The perfect training (extensive training)
6. Support from a whole community (WA members who have experienced this before you)
7. Strong leadership (this would be the experienced leaders and me at WA)
8. Encouragement (thousands of people to motivate you)
9. A community that wants you to succeed (daily blogs and extra training within WA)
10. An incredible teacher like Kyle the co-founder (Kyle lines the training out perfectly)
These are just a few of the tools you have with Wealthy Affiliate and within you to become successful.
FREE, NO credit card, NO risk, NO obligation
You can sign up with Wealthy Affiliate FREE. Yes free! But we do offer a premium membership also. I stepped inside the platform for free and took the first 10 courses. With these courses, I set up a website, learned how to promote it, how to write, how to get ranked on google and so much more. By the time I reached lesson 7 on my fifth day I knew I had to become premium.
In your first 7 days, you have access to the premium benefits. Now after the 7 days you may stay a free member, but some of those benefits will go away. You will lose benefits such as; the live chat, the extended training past the first 10 lessons, the ability to private message anyone to ask for help and the ability to ask any question of the community.
You will still have the website you set up and the passion you began to promote. But if you choose to become premium as I did within the first 7 days, I will give you a 59% discount on the first month. Regular price is $49 a month, but you can have the first month for only $19. Hang onto this thought while you take a look around.
And if you do make the incredible decision to become premium in the first 7 days, I have some other secret surprises for you that I will let you know about when you decide.

Empower your life
I needed all of what Wealthy Affiliate had to offer. I needed to learn and grow and empower myself with a business that I owned. I needed to dictate my time and determine the course of my life. I needed Wealthy Affiliate. Not only did I need them but the whole community treated me like they need me.
What is stopping you? It is Free to look around and set up your first website. Empower your life now. Remember it takes six months of steady effort and learning to begin making an income. So don’t waste precious time making a decision. Start now so you can be free to live your life later.
Affiliate Marketing is a job just like the one you have now except you set you hours and determine how you will get paid. It is work and effort. But what job is not. While everyone else is searching online on how to make money, you will be building your business. A legacy to leave for your family. A cornerstone to enjoy your family and stay at home.
Build something great from a passion you choose. Your potential income is the limit according to how much effort you put into it. After all, this is your business to manage the way you want it to work for you.
Don’t be shy, step inside and take a look around. It won’t cost you a thing, and you can sign out any time you want. But I don’t think you will want to once you see what you can to do empower your life.
What do you think? Is this something you want to give a try? Do you want to change your life and make money online from home? Wealthy Affiliate is the perfect answer to what can I do with my life.
By now, I am sure you will have some questions. I am here to assist you in any way I can. Please leave your questions and comments below, and I will be back with you very shortly. Or just step inside and I will see you there.
Nice article. This encouraged me to work harder in my online business. I am a member of Wealthy Affiliate and I feel energized by the information you gave us. Thank you for this piece, Laura!
I believe everyone should have an online business. There are enough people on the internet for so many more internet marketers to make very good money. Don’t you think so? I mean doesn’t it say that there are billions of people shopping on the internet now?
Thank you so much. Yes, there are billions of internet shoppers today. It is so convenient to shop from our homes. Actually the affiliate marketing business will never become saturated. It is growing and evolving daily and Wealthy Affiliate is changing with it to meet the needs of online business owners.It is a win, win situation.
Thank you for this amazing article on Wealthy Affiliate. I see that by promoting Wealthy Affiliate has completely changed your life, for the better. Do you have any tips for people just starting out on this journey? Also, how do you think Wealthy Affiliate compares to other online business opportunities?
Thank you so much. Yes, it has changed my life. I love it. There is no other company that compares to Wealthy Affiliate. We have the best platform in the world hands down.
My tip for you is following the training just as Kyle has set it up. Just about the time you feel stuck you move to the next training and he has the answer for you. Do all of the exercises and do exactly what he says. You will be successful if you do this.
Before I became a member of wealthyaffiliate I heard a lot of positives about the platform and at that time I already created a blog that failed. I really had no experience then and no direction and just did whatever I liked which was definitely not good for my website.
Now that I have become a member of wealthyaffiliate I have a direction and a gameplan that I believe is already working. I had my doubts about wealthyaffiliate but I think it is one of the best decisions I made when I became a premium member of this great platform with a wonderful community ready to assist you anytime you need help.
I am so happy you have found direction and the help you need. Affiliate marketing and blogging, in my opinion, is the only way to earn a living. And Wealthy Affiliate will teach you everything you need to know. You are in the right place for sure.
Great post. As a premium member in Wealthy affiliate there are lots of goodies to be enjoyed. I registered with the site few months ago and trust me, it was worth it. I actually became a premium member 3 days after starting my free membership and I got my 58% off as well. I’ve been to lots of affiliate site most of which are scams, but this is real and you will make the best from it providing you got what it takes to follow simple instructions and tools as described by the writer.
Thank you so much. Yes, Wealthy Affiliate is an incredible platform. And the training is right there for you to soak up and create a business. No one can fail unless they quite. It does take some work and some really don’t like that but most people are willing to work hard for what they want.
It is absolutely not a scam but you are right there are so many out there today.
Hi, Laura. Great post about what to do to become successful and happy in the “making money” side of our lives. I have done the ‘job’ thing for all my life, since when I was a teenager. I thought for years that I would like to have my own business, but that seemed way out of reach, with the cost of starting, and the percentage of failures in the first couple of years. I couldn’t afford to start from scratch, and I didn’t have any money to buy an existing business or a franchise, so I stayed an employee from start to finish. Now i’m retired, and still think about starting a business. Do you think that affiliate marketing is a good business for retirees to get involved in?
Oh my, Grant, I am so happy you asked. I am 62, retired and love my home affiliate marketing business. It gives my mind something to think about and something to do. I get social security so I don’t need much money and my business makes just enough to supplement so we can take vacations when we want.
I think you would also love this business. I for one never thought I could have a business but with all of the training at WA I am really good at it.
Thank you for sharing this post What Can I Do With My Life? Leaves me also to ponder the same question , I have seen a few work from home opportunities while surfing around the internet and have bumped into Wealthy Affiliate program before and read some of the reviews . It looks like for the most part there are good reviews and after reading your post I am seriously considering signing up . Just a quick question does the starter membership provide you with enough training to get A a good start?
Rick, Wealthy Affiliate is definitely not a scam. I believe you would love it. But it does require some work. And you need to follow the teaching step by step. If you do this you will be successful.
As for the Free version. It is a very good way to check it out and see if it is a good fit for you. But I recommend the premium membership. I became premium after 5 days. I was so excited to move on in my business I don’t think anyone could have stopped me.
So, the Free is very good but if real success is what you are looking for then the premium is the way to go.
Hi Laura! The 9 – 5 working pattern is not only demanding but often times annoying. No time for your self and your family. I must say that the idea of blogging and doing affiliate marketing sounds interesting. When it comes to blogging and affiliating marketing, Wealthy Affiliate is great. It is loaded with information and money making opportunities.One thing I truly love about WA is the ability to allow new people to register as free starter. Anyone interested in making money online should go for WA.Your article is quite informative, and people aspiring to start blogging will find this piece helpful.

Hey Dale, you are so right. It is the best platform in the world to begin an affiliate marketing business. The training is incredible and yes I agree with you.
