So guys, when i was 11 years old, in the 2001, i got my first computer, at the time, i only have internet on weekends, so i discovered Front Page( software used to create webpages ), with nothing to do during the week days, i started creating a lot of websites for fun, did not make any money on it, i also watched a lot of American TV Shows like Friends, Two and A Half Men, South Park, Family Guy and others, eventually a learned to understand English, i did not have a tv in my room, so those shows are basically the only thing a watched on tv. (This is important in my history ).
When a was 12 years old, i so this show about exotic cars ( is always about cars ), and it was showing a red Ferrari , and i tough "i will never be able to buy a car like that!" then 1 second later i also tough "Why not?", so having a Ferrari was always me life goal.
In 2007 i started a lot of websites with the purpose of making money online, in 2008 i was making $300 per month online with my websites, i was also making another 300 - 500$, translating Games for a Magazine, from english to portuguese here in Brazil.
In 2009, i won a scholarship for a very prestigious University here in Brazil, so i moved out my house, and i was able to support myself with the money a make online. After 2 months in the University, a so that this was a awfully plan, i wanted to buy a car, and i would have to wait 4 years to get my degree, and get a good job, so i drooped college, and dropped my job as a translator, and focused on my websites. By the end of 2009 i was making something close to $2.000,00 per month, so in 2010 i bough a car.
2010, was a great year for me, i was working alot with major discipline my friends did not understand me, cause a never drink on week days also, a worked 10 hours + everyday, eventually i started making $3.000,00+ every month, which is a lot here in Brazil,(Avg income per year here, is around $11.000,00) my mom and dad combine make something close to $2.000,00/month, so i was making more money then they.
In 2011, a bought a XBOX 360, worst think a ever did, a learned that even if a did not work at all, i would still make $3.000,00 plus, cause my websites were self sufficient, for months i have worked less then 10 hours, i was also kind of depressed because a learned, that 3 thousand was a lot for my lifestyle, but was still pretty bad, i could not buy a house, or travel the world with that money so i just give up on real life, and focused on video games.
2012, was alot like 2011, execpt that my income started to decrease, for 2 reasons, i wasn't working at all, and Google wich was my main source of income, changed his algorithm a couple of times. I have some ideas for new websites, i worked on some websites for like 2 - 3 days, and give up, cause i always have this tough in my mind (yeah, this website can generate money, but still is not going to change your life), i wanted a big hit, but i was not willing to fight for it, so i just focused on the video games, by the end of 2012 i was making something close to $1.500,00 and it did not bother me at all, i have become super lazy and the money did not changed my life, the only think different, was that with less money i have to buy less gadgets.
2013, started and everything was the same for me, until March, wich was the month i made less than $1.000,00, this light something in my head, and i started to think about what have i become, "iam 22 years old, and a i give up on my dreams, i am super lazy, etc... "
So a decided to change the first thing i did, was to turn off my Xbox almost permanently, sometimes i go online to talk to some friends,but today i play less than 1 hour per week, i dont want to go back to build websites the way i was doing, (all my websites are about some subject, and just write articles on them, and sell advertise trough Google Adsense), cause i realize this was not taking me, were i want to be. Instead i decide to found something that can make me a multimillionaire. So i decide that a need to create a big online service, it doesn't matter what, could be a website or app, for the last 4 months i am studying as much as i can, about programming, i always build my websites with Wordpress and the only languages i mastered was HTML and CSS, and a little PHP, which is almost nothing when it come to programming.
In this 4 months of studying a learn a lot about PHP, MySQL, SQL, Ruby, Javascript and Jquery i also focused on learning about app development, so i am also studying Objective-c and iOS development, and some frameworks like Phonegap and Cocos2d , i already build some applications, nothing fancy yet, but the more a learn, the bigger the possibilities. I also studying english, i am very good at reading, and understanding, but i have a lot of problems to write and talk in English.
A week ago, a found The Fastlane Millionaire book, on Amazon, and this book motivated me a lot more. And i think i'm in the right patch.
I Still have no clue on what i am going to do, and thats basicly it!
