As expected, I was right.

My best advice to newbies coming into this biz is.... stick your attitude in your ass for at least 1-2 years, shut your mouth and learn, and open your mouth only to ask key question of key people, preferably in private and not openly on the boards. Search the boards for information, but also work hard to learn how to build and promote your own websites. Learn how to build traffic and keep it. Learn how to pick decent sponsors and learn over trial and error as to how to best send your hard-earned traffic to them in order to make money. Once you're making some money, do what you did before AGAIN and make more money.

Then when you can actually afford the time to come on here and beak off and run attitude, then and only then should you do it, if that's what you have to do that is. I've noticed that having a shit attitude can often get in the way of doing some otherwise good networking and building key contacts.

In conclusion,

Congrats to the winners. :D
