Born of show biz parents. My mother was a dancer(even though she was born deaf) and father was a Big Band drummer(even though his parents slapped him for "drumming on furniture" with silverware when he was three. Due to my early upbringing with school and friends I became interested in sports. Learned how to play and did everything related to sports. Did many jobs as a kid, but ultimately started a summer job with Sears and after 35 years just recently retired. Bottom line, sold and waited on customers. Now that I am retired, I am busy selling my personal items on eBay, baby sitting grandkids, finding different ways to keep fit, and trying to find my purpose in life. During my career with Sears, I took acting classes and have acted in plays and done various types of video work. Still after the elusive acting career.

Hello my name is Dan Schild and I've been affiliate marketing for several years now. The first time I ever made money online I made $200. That small amount of money has fueled my efforts to make a business for myself online. I have worked so many dead end jobs. They just didn't cut it for me and the last job I had made me a very nice income. However with that income came the responsibility of working constantly and having no time for friends or family. Thats why I started building my internet business so that I can work hard and control my own finances. Be my own boss. Besides business which happens to be my job and hobby, I enjoy road trips with friends, and music (especially drumming!) which I have been doing for about 8 years now. I have about 8 years experience in 3d modeling and animation with 3ds max, Lightwave, and photoshop. As well as knowledge of several word processing software packages, my favorite is Openoffice. I lived in Wisconsin most of my life, but recently had the opportunity to move to Florida which I am very happy about. One of my favorite quotes is "shoot for the moon, if you miss you will be among the stars" and one of the founding principles of my life is that if you put your mind and all your passion into something you will make it happen.
