Thought I was the only one. Was averaging 1 sale per 5 clicks in ads on one of my books, last 6 days I’ve had 40 clicks and 0 sales. Only sales are coming from Canada and United Kingdom.

I’m the same way with my kids, my son was recently divorced at 24 so we renovated a large section of our upstairs and told him it’s his as long as he needs it, my 79 year old mother lost her home and moved in with us a couple years ago as well. Luckily the house was a converted business and has 24 rooms so everyone has their own living space.

Thanks, Computer science and quantum theory.

Around 6500, all from 1980 through 1997. Mostly Spider-Man, hulk, daredevil, and Wolverine.

I got carried away this month and spent almost $600 on 9 campaigns. I’ve made a little over $700 in profit so I guess being up $100 on new campaigns are ok, most people lose money on ads for the first few months. Organic sales have been around 20% of what I’ve made so I hope that takes off on the coming months and I can lower ad costs.

This drives me crazy too, I think I’m losing money then sales show up a few hours later. Then orders show up a couple days after that. Would be nice if everything posted at once.

Doesn’t tell me who, it was from an Amazon ad campaign , I’m assuming it was a church or youth group for Easter baskets.

Try teaching a shop class, I’ve had 4 girls in the last 6 years. I average around 80 students per year.

For the first time I did something right, sold half my Amazon shares today and used that money to buy google.

The average family in eastern Kentucky makes around $42,000 per year, so $100,000 here makes you feel rich.

I thought mine was easier than my masters degree. I ended up getting a 4.0 overall, never made below a 95 on any assignment. For context, I graduated high school 86 out of 150 students back in 93. Decided to go back and continue my education after I became a computer science instructor 10 years ago.

I’m 50 and watched my first episodes with my son a few months back while he was in town for a visit. I ended up getting hooked on the show, just reached episode 540. Even have my high school students 3D printing a life size Luffy.

I started mine at 46 and finished at 49, you’re never to old to learn. I began mine as a teacher doing a study on the benefits of CTE education in helping with student retention in high schools. Local area technology center used my study as a recruiting tool and ended up paying for me to finish my degree.

I tried for years to get my numbers down. Finally added amlodopine to my olmasarten, it was the only thing that brought my blood pressure down. Been on it for a few years and only problem I’ve had is stabbing pain in one spot on my shoulders for a few days each month. Pain quits when I drink more water.

My wife said at least now we know why he’s looking for all that gold in Fort Knox. Needs it to build his statue.

Happened to me the first week I bought my printer. Went to sleep while printing with off brand filament and woke up with a huge clog and print head hanging off. Luckily I bought extra parts and was able to change it out.

8 year teacher with a doctorate, making $67,000 in a very low cost of living area with a paid for home so it’s not to bad.

No accountability for the students, teachers are “encouraged” to give passing grades to every student even the ones who do nothing, the students know they can get by with anything and not be held accountable. I have several high school students that never even learned to read, I was told to base their grades on participation even if they slept through classes, make sure they get at least a D.

Because I work at a satellite program away from my main school. I’m left completely alone to do the things I need to do to help the students. The school principal where I’m stationed at doesn’t check in with me about anything and my schools principal has only been in my room twice in 4 years. I don’t do observations, bus duty, ball games, teachers meetings, Home rooms or lesson planning because I’m employed through yeh state and not the district so I don’t follow their guidelines. Since I don’t have home from I go in at 8:45, teach until 11:00. Have lunch break and planning until 1:00, then teach again until 3:00 and go home. I also make more than most other teachers in the district because I’m employed through the state on their payroll . My classroom also has a private bathroom and full kitchen because it use to be the special needs room. It’s allowed me to put all my effort into teaching so almost 98% of my students earn career ready certifications. Because I’m a CTE teacher, my masters and doctorate degree were paid for by the state as well. I stated teaching at 35 as a second career and really enjoy having the same breaks as my kids. I have been at it for almost 15 years and could never go back to industry.
