I started my own IT & business company by age 22, sold the company and retired by age 34, 4 years later I got bored of retirement, came out of retirement and became a bus driver because you get to meet nice and/or complete nutters every day, it's fun, I am almost 40 now.

I pretend to work and look busy for most of the working day.

But in all seriousness, I’m a self-employed IT Consultant and throw myself into major technology transformations, which is where I get my kicks! 💾—>💿—>🖥️—>☁️

Reps bring a lot of people from all walks of life together. Just curious what we all do for a profession. I understand anonymity so you don’t have to be specific. Im lucky enough to make a living from my art, what do you do?

Hello, nice to meet you.
Hi and welcome to RWI! Glad you found your way here.

Please take some time to read the sticky threads in the new members area (all subsections), learn the basic forum rules and get some very good advice in the process. A number of questions has already been answered there, this is just an example:


As a new subscriber, you've already been directed to this thread, please read carefully and look through the linked additional threads:


Another good thread to read to understand where RWI comes from and some fundamentals is this:


Most of the information you need to know to start is there. If you're preparing to buy, read the stickies before ordering. When you're finished, you can continue learning by reading the stickies in all remaining sections. If it's stickied, it's important information.

If you intend to sell, read the sales rules and all stickies in the sales section with particular care and make sure you understand each single rule. Sales rules infraction is taken very seriously here. As a new member you are not eligible to sell. Using the sales section is a privilege, eligibility must be earned, make sure you know and understand how.

For anything else, feel free to reach out to @eBoy or me, we're happy to assist, advise, direct, explain. Don't hesitate.

Don't be afraid to post noob questions in the new members area. In doubt, use the flame free zone. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere in the new members area, please reach out to @eBoy or me. Mutual respect is of utmost importance to us. On the other hand, we're grown-ups and are supposed to be able to deal with a bit of irony, don't take it personally, ever, a bit of irony never harmed anyone. If you laugh at jokes, you'll make friends faster.

This forum is a treasure trove of information and benefits from the engagement of all members who take their time to share their knowledge, help each other out and have some fun. We hope that you'll benefit and enjoy this platform as well as contribute positively to it.

If at any point you feel to contribute also on another level, feel free to pm the boss (trailboss99) to become a supporter and get some little perks with the status (editing rights, for example).

Enjoy the forum.

Cyber. Was a techie from '99 till 2018. Now I do other stuff in the same space.

Aiming for a 3 day working week in a couple of years, and then whatever I feel like a couple of years after that. The bots can take over at that point.

There are several answers, most of which have a direct nexus with “e-commerce”, so that’s my answer.

I often need to speak with some rather expensive intellectual property lawyers, and FWIW none - not even one - has ever had anything to say at all about any gen or rep I’ve ever worn on a call or in person.
