Absolute Proof: You CAN Make Money HubPages

IT IS TRUE. All the hype. Every bit of it. It IS possible to make money online.

There I was, wallowing in blog obscurity (the blogosphere, to those in the know) promoting, emailing, linking; promoting, emailing, linking; promoting, emailing, linking. You know the drill.

And yet, zero revenue. Granted, my blog was not designed primarily as a revenue stream, but I began believing all the "how to's" and "add sense" and began to think, "...just maybe."

Until, one day, I found HubPages. Now, I am called a "Prodigy". I have fans (really, fans, they label themselves such). I get fan mail (the politically correct term is "comments", but, same thing). And I will soon retire into the lap of luxury.

...I'd like to take this opportunity to thank HubPages. If it was not for you, I would still be a lone voice in the sea of blogs, and lenses, and hubs. I will sing your praises to anyone who will listen. You have made me who I am today.

...I'd like to thank my wife for supporting me over this past month, and standing by me while I struggled to climb my way to the top here at HubPages. I'm sure it's been as hard on her as it has on me, and I love her more for her support. All the missed dinners, proofreadings, stroking my ego and telling me, "Very good, honey.", I owe you more than you can ever know.

...Last, but most certainly not least, I'd like to thank YOU, my fans; my readers, without you who knows where I would be today. And, to all of the little people out there who made this all possible, I say, "Thank You(!), from the bottom of my heart."

I gladly, but humbly, accept the title of "Prodigy" and the payday that comes with it. I will never forget where I came from. I will remember you all, I promise.

The title "Prodigy" no longer applies as in just six short weeks I have attained the title "Expert", my prodigiousness was apparently apparent to others as well.

I assume the financial rewards will reflect this expertise as well.
