Hey there, This is Bob. I've been married for 35 years have 2 daughters, a new Grand-Daughter and a crazy Golden-Doodle named Charlie. I had a DJ Company in New York for 25 Years before I "Retired" to Florida 20 years ago. The Job Market in Florida is VERY different than the Job Market in New York..."Duh"...Yeah, but I fell in love with Florida so much on a vacation trip that I didn't think too much about it and just decided to move my Family and Company here without much research. My income took a dramatic hit immediately. But, having said that, the cost of living was much lower.
Anyway, to make this short. When the 2008 Crash Happened in 2008...I got caught with my pants down, High in debt and suddenly in a situation where my house was being Foreclosed on, Our New Cars were being Re-possessed, Credit Card companies and collections were calling all day and I struggled to keep the mess I found myself in a secret from my Parents, Friends and In-Laws.
All of this Stress, started eating away at me and one day I had a massive Panic Attack that I thought was the end of me. It just got out of control fast. Soon enough, it turned into severe depression and anxiety to the point where I did not leave my house for 9 Months...I could not drive, or stand still and talk to someone without shaking. The only times I left the house was to go to the Hospital in an Ambulance 11 Times in 2009 thinking "This was it."
Finally, my Father took me by the hand and forced me to go to a Psychiatrist, who immediately diagnosed me with Anxiety and Depression and put me on Drugs. The Drugs, after about a Month, gave me my life back. But I still had a Foreclosure pending, and no real income. I worried about will I ever be able to take care of my Family again. Then scrolling around the Internet I discovered INTERNET MARKETING PROGRAMS. I was skeptical at first, but to be honest I had no other choice. I could not really work for anyone with my Anxiety issues and besides, due to the recession...nobody was really hiring. So all I could do was sit down and study this stuff, and little by little the world started rebuilding itself.
Today is 2026, that was over 15 years ago. I've since bought new houses, new cars. Rebuilt my Financial Portfolio and Now Internet Marketing is ALL I do. I can work from anywhere, Make more than any Job could ever pay me. AND most importantly I have the Financial Confidence because of the Skills I learned that what happened to me in 2008 can never happen to me or my family again.
