Hi everybody.

This is Marco from Italy, and I must admit that the #6 Podcast on Steve Pavlina's Blog, "How to Make Money Without a Job", was a real shock in my life.

I think that one of the main reasons was that I read it in the proper time (someone would call this "destiny"..): I had just started working as an emplyee after my Computer Science degree, and the shift from the joyful life of the student, with lots of spare time and experiences, to the life of a worker with a few (if any) spare time hours per day was a shock for me. A true trauma.

I must admit I underwent a depressed period feeling enslaved and with no perspectives. I simply refused the idea that from that moment on I would be no more teh owner of 8 hours every day (half the time I am awake!!!).

All at a sudden, a summer night, searching Google for "How to make money without working", (a random search query, uh

) Steve's podcast came out and the related post ...
I read exactly the kind of words I wanted to read, you know, and the day after I bought my Raffish.it domain.
Having computer skills and a year-long experience a web addicted, building my own website was the natural consequent idea and thanks to Wordpress it was a joke to set-up what you can see today at that url.

But after two months, my website is still stuck to a friends-only audience, with its 10-15 visits per day, and it just seems I am not able to grow it.
I have read CAREFULLY Steve's words and I know from them that if I do not succeed in having a high-traffic website, the main reason is surely that I do not really want it.

Please, help me in creating passive income flows.
To be free of job's enslavement is the true purpose of this part of my life.
