Every other day I’m reading inspirational stories of how people got rich and successful online. There are few that just got lucky and was there at the right time (tech boom). Some just have worked hard and persevered. We been hearing about Ashley at Whateverlife.com website all over the internet and even featured on CNN twice. I personally think she deserved to get that exposure and successful site that generates over $1 million a year. She worked hard and dedicated her time for two years, now its paying off.

Another story that you should know about is how TrafficZ co-founders started their company. Kevin Vo and Ammar Kubba are co-founders of TrafficZ, an industry leader in monetizing parked domains. Looks like Kevin and Ammar put in time and dedication to get their business running. They almost didn’t make it. They were one client away from dropping this idea and doing something else. One client is all it took them to continue pushing their business and successfully getting a contract with Yahoo Search (Overture). Read rest of TrafficZ story at DNJournal

We all have ideas and strive to make tons of money to retire early right? I have many ideas in back burner but don’t have enough time to do them and lack of capital to start. It doesn’t matter if your idea is small like starting a blog or big idea that can revolutionize the internet. We all seen ideas like Paypal, YouTube, Slide.com, and plenty of Facebook Apps start out small then it explodes with funding from Angel or VC investors. Do you have an idea but don’t have any capital? You can read and learn how to network with potential investors and other start-up companies seeking funding at Techcrunch Forum.
