The holidays pass very quickly. The four-day weekend is almost over. I have to wake up tomorrow morning around 7AM and get ready for another day at my regular job.

I like my job but sometimes I wonder how long I can continue the routine. I am going no where in my corporate career. I am little too old for planning my career path for climbing the corporate ladder.

The money I bring in from my websites and the income generated from the money I had saved when I was operating adult web sites is enough for me to retire and retire very comfortably in a Third World country, like in Central America, Mexico, India, or Thailand.

The biggest fear of retiring in the USA is the medical expenses. I have to pay at least a thousand dollar a month for the type of health insurance that I get from my company. I should also be ready to drop 4K as out of pocket expenses in case of emergency.

I cannot quit my job when my online income matches incomes from my regular job. What will happen if my online income drops? Can I quit my job when the online income matches my current combined incomes (online income + regular job)? If I can sustain that kind of online revenue for a year, I would be able to quit my job.

I am not an online marketing guru or an SEO expert. I know the basic plot and how to implement it. When I see lots of people are trying very hard to generate even $1,000 a month online profit, I think I am lucky to generate the kind of of money I bring in now by running websites.

I had started seriously thinking about increasing my online revenues substantially in the last few months. I am also reading a lots of blog articles on affiliate marketing, social media marketing, stumbleupon marketing, and what not.

Come new year, I have to focus on one area for generating serious online incomes.
