I agree. I work 30 hours per week and make 45K a year. I am by no means an exception. I know many, many MTs who make more than I do by working part-time. The naysayer seems to have forgotten an important fact of life: In life you have one of two things. You either have the results or you have the reasons you don't have the results. And all folks like that have are reasons (they can't get in the zone, they went to a matchbox school, their mama didn't love them, insert your favorite excuse). Maybe MT is not her thing. I hope she finds something she can love and grow with, not tear down.

HappyMT, Do you have MDI-MD website?

I second that advice from HappyMT
Amen to what she is saying especially about not posting here and if you were not doing your job, you would not be there. Do not just assume something before you find out the facts.

Ditto what HappyMT said
On my primary account, I average 1500+ lpd and rarely work more than 6 hours a day. If I switch to one of my backup accounts, I am able to maintain 200+ lph even if I haven't worked it in a few months. I have 4 accounts - 2 C-Phone and 2 internet and I only have problems with one of the internet accounts only because the account specifics are very difficult.
