Hello visitor, this is Robert, I reside in Rocklin, Northern California, 95677 I'm a U.S. veteran who was an active duty soldier until my performance was affected by a preexisting medical condition in 1988. I was clinically diagnosed by my US ARMY in 1990 and they determined about the effects of my disability, presently I'm using a couple different kinds of medications to alleviate the condition. Although I have been labeled handicapped I have tried to get myself some schooling and find a career which could better my life. I'm able to comfortably study because my condition is being reasonably well treated, usually however I've ended up with my goals incomplete for one reason or another and it seems my two biggest obstacles are; one, advancing at my job position, and second, the ability to be able to apply newly learned skills in a competitive workplace. Sometimes it seems to me like everyone has got me beat because jobs are hard to keep and also my disability. I am still not considered a skilled worker. I wish I had the "FREEDOM" to do the kind of work I want without people complaining about their money and profit margins too. <-----------------------------------> Even if your a person with a disability you can function in the community still if your taking your Med's and have a routine, there are countless stories of people who did, I want to be one of those people, and distributing my novel now by using the Internet is in actuality for me a great plan. Economically, the cost of my book is as cheap and affordable as any Greeting Card you can buy in a thrift store, I also really think it's obvious it would be next to impossible for Me to save a large amount of money Mowing neighbor's Lawns or by doing whatever other odd jobs people offer around these parts. Although I went to College in 1985-86 and did other technical classes since then too the fact that still remains is there are billions of people using the Internet (1000's of millions) that can pay just $3.45 for a copy of MY NOVEL I have here on my website and through sales I could make a lot of money. Presently you can look me up in every Public Library at this URL (my website's address) on their Internet and download my entire novel easily to anywhere on a computer thanks to a book file's really small size. Any taxable amount of money I receive from sales, although probably actually only some small fraction compared to the preceding statistics will be reported to SSDI and also quarterly for the IRS. Of course I hope to do as well as I can, and who knows I may even make my million dollars, or more! I've been on Social Security Disability (SSDI) for sometime, I feel I need the extra help to properly pay the bills here in California, it's even tough for employed people and only a small apartment can be found for under $850./ month including the garbage and utilities. I also have benefits from the VA in Disability Compensation because I'm an ARMY veteran with 600 days of enlistment whoes handicapped, my hospital records as a "mos 52 delta" Generator Mechanic and later evaluation rated me 50% Disabled. The money I receive from (SSDI) plus my Disability Compensation gets me through but even if I had a paying job too I could only take home a pre-determined amount of extra money each month because of SSDI's rules. Some of the best ideas I have had for using my finances were from e-mails and other internet contained advertising for promotions of Websites and other Literature. I've ascertained that internet marketing companies will be highly user friendly in our near future, especially for people like me, and with one-time purchases my Novel sales could make my Disability Benefits look "pale in comparison," so read on ... <------------------------------------> I have talked to some people about my future plans and what is available for me and mostly they believe it would be best to work on refining the process of selling my books and to use my resources on house payments in the future instead of paying rent to create a more normal financial arrangement. - REMEMBER...
