According to what my grandfather told my mother and my mother told me, Mathilda, almost single-handedly, discovered one of the richest gold mines in Sierra Nevada. My mother also told me that Mathilda engaged in a forbidden love affair with an older and married man, who subsequently fathered my great grandfather. But this is a different story altogether.



I'm sure you understand by now that Mathilda was an exceptional woman. The enormous fortune she had obtained in 1852 in California, was totally lost by her grandson, my grandfather, in 1929 in New York, when the stock market crashed. Fortunately, she had died 9 years earlier and was spared the disaster.

"What in the world is he talking about?" I can hear you asking yourself right now, "What does that have to do with affiliate marketing?" Be patient, my friend. You'll know in a minute.

In the middle of the 19th century, hundreds of thousands went to California in search of gold. Only few found it and made a fortune. First, they grabbed the opportunity when it presented itself to them; second, they possessed the courage to take risks on the road to fulfill their dreams; and third, they had both the knowledge and the tools to accomplish their goal. My great grandmother Mathilda was one of them. She left me a great legacy: "She (or He) who dares - conquers."

This, my friend, is it. Internet affiliate marketing is the Gold Rush of the 21st century. Don't miss your chance to be one of the few. Seize the opportunity now, before it's too late. If you want to realize your hope to find gold, have courage, get the knowledge and the tools, and go after it!

The Internet, although already so advanced and overwhelming, is still in its diapers. It is as California was in the middle of the 19th century, full of hidden gold. Only now, instead of a pan and a shovel and hard physical work, you can sit at home in front of your computer. Only the gold is the same precious gold. Anybody can do it, you too.

Today is the day. You don't want to realize, 5 or 10 years from now, that you've missed the train. Always remember Mathilda: "He who dares - conquers."
