It's not just me, but nearly half the people that posted in this thread. That's not to say the wall can't be scaled, but it's a hell of a lot higher/harder than most people perceive it to be for the beginner. It's easy for everyone here with experience to sit back and comment on how it's not that difficult if you put in the necessary effort, etc. But you think every single newb that failed to reach a fair level of success, didn't do so because they didn't work hard enough?? Or take the biz serious enough? Come on...
Really?? I'd like to have him come back on here and clear that up for the record, cause that's certainly not the impression I got from talking with him.
I'll admit that I don't know enough about the tubes yet to accurately comment on this. But this really does comes off sounding very similar to other things that people research and analyze in order to "predict" what the customer is going to do and want so that they can best reach them. And we all know that doesn't always work out as planned (or predicted).

To me, it is just starting to sound like all you really want is for it to be "easy", you know, like it was in the good ol' days...
That "good ol days" is a myth. Those people that were successful yesterday worked hard. Some were successful but most failed even then. Even the successful ones found out things were not easy when user behaviors changed and they were not prepared for it for any number of reasons, the drug habits they took on, the arrogance of bad investments, the unwillingness to change and adapt, whatever.
I never said it was easy. I just say it is easier nowadays to figure out how to be a success because of the abundant cheap resources that make the barrier to entry very low. However, I never said it won't be about hard work.
Good luck, maybe for you the third time will be the charm.
I wish you luck but honestly, judging from this thread and your apparent willingness to buy into the easy "logic" of the sophists that are telling you what you want to hear, unfortunately I think you are more likely going to fail. Hope you prove me wrong.
