Much Respect Aequitas. I'll add my 2 cents to it just so as the soothe the guy who posted he can't.

Well, I used to come from a rich family when my granddad was screwed by his own brothers and we were reduced to whatever low we could. When my granddad passed away my dad was 10 or probably 11. As he grew up he took a job in a bank and still works there. After that not that we were poor, but we weren't rich either.

I, being 18 myself right now, was 13 back then when i started. Asked for
300 Indian Rupees, or about $8 from my dad to start a website on my town. That website came up and went down a few times, but triggered my readiness to embrace the web.

Today at age 18, am an internet marketing consultant, own a few large forums, work on many big projects and i can say i have a better life.

I am sure, you guys must've been thinking it was sheer luck that got me here. Well the answer is yes and no. Yes because I do believe in getting lucky, and No because I fell down many times in these 4 years. Until last year, i couldn't even call myself 'successful'

I have fallen and risen many times amidst these 4 years. It was the determination to "not lose" hope that gets you to be successful. There are times when you cry, when you feel aloof, when you even wish you hadn't wasted your life in this whole internet thing. But believe me, like the glamor world, the internet too has something for everyone. It depends on when and how you find it.

And to all the other guys participating in this thread, you have even my attention right now. I'll help out and guide in whatever way I can.
