What did they mean by "some results?" A dollar here, two dollars there - heck, in the early days they were ecstatic if they made $10 one month and doubled it to $20 the next month. After all, that's a 100% increase. I loved what one of the students - Steve - said about his longer term goals:
"People have to realize that making an income on the internet is a marathon, not a sprint. If you get into this game thinking you're going to go from zero to thousands per month in a couple months you're just going to get frustrated and quit. My plan is to increase my income by about 5% per month for the next three years. That will get me to my goals."
Let's work through the math for a second. Let's say you bust your tail for 12 months and achieve an income of $1,000 in the 12th month (although Steve did that in his fourth month). Now let's say you're able to increase that income by 5% every month after that. Three years later your monthly income would be just over $6,000 per month. If you include the first year, it would have taken you four years to reach an income of about $72,000 per year.
