It’s My Birthday

Just a short note today before I go run out and play (I’ve been told I’m not allowed to “work” today).

It’s my birthday! I’ve just turned 29, which apparently is the ideal age. Old enough to know better and still considered young. Go figure.

Apparently whenever someone asks your age you should say you are 29. At least for this year, I won’t be lying.

I received a present when I woke up this morning - a helicopter!

Here’s a video from my first flight.

Make A Note In Your Calendar - Tuesday A Special Video Is Released

On Tuesday, if all things go according to plan I’ll have a special video for you to watch that covers my take on what I think is currently the best formula for making money blogging, and I’d go as far to say - one of the most enjoyable Internet businesses you could ever own.

A week later, Tuesday July 29, Blog Mastermind opens to new students (fingers crossed anyway!).

Until then, stay tuned to this channel.

Happy birthday, Yaro! 29 was a great year for me - I’m sure it will be doubly so for you with the launch of BMM!!! That video CRACKED ME UP - I can’t even explain why, I was in stitches. It reminds me of the first time I tried to drive a stick shift.. if it hadn’t been so stressful, it would have been hilarious. Your “first” was much less stressful - just plain funny. It was especially great when it dropped over into the neighbor’s yard. Priceless.

Thanks for sharing!

Happy Birthday Yaro! Hope you have a good day!

That reminds me…gotta get myself one of those remote control helicopters - they look so cool (but hard to fly!)

Happy Bday!

Funny clip. I kept expecting the helo to fly away at some point.

Non sequitur- I’m pretty sure you use Aweber, but there’s a GetResponse ad above the comments here…?

Awesome… Next time, jump out of it (with a parachute of course) half way through… that would make youtube go wild :)

Hey Yaro

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Looks like you’ve had a very fun day. Glad you could finally get your helicopter ride.

I totally cracked up when it went over the fence - LOL!!!

Talk soon!

Happy birthday to you! I’m glad 29 is young, because I’m 16 so I still have years of youth ahead. :D Keep up the good work!

Happy Birthday Yaro!

My younger brother Bart (You met him at Dot Com Pho) got a helicopter this year and he flew it up in the air so high that the wind took it and carried it a few hundred feet somewhere and he lost it. :) He had to go buy another one.

Happy Birthday! The video was brilliant. So nice of you to share. And what a good hobbit to give US a present for YOUR birthday! I have downloaded your ebook and look forward to reading it as soon as I’m offline.

Happy Birthday Yaro

Was contemplating buying a similar helicopter that comes as a pair so that you and your friend can dog fight with them.

After seeing your video, you may need some practice before you start any dog fighting with your friends.

Hey Yaro, Happy Birthday
The helicopter is very cool, it’s for the boy inside and he will never grow older that nine, at least. I’ve been reading your blog for a few months, listening to your podcasts and I’m always getting value from them, good job.
cheers…ty

Cheers,

Happy birthday Yaro!

Yeah, flying those RC helicopters can be quite hard. I tried playing once. It was my nephews and ended up broking it (crash landed to a pavement just outside my sister’s house). :)

Hi Yaro!

Happy birthday to the unassuming Internet guru! At age 29 you should be thinking of getting married. Do we hear church bells ringing anytime soon?

Happy birthday! Love the blog. Lots of good information. But whoever told you that you weren’t allowed to work on this day was right. Take it easy, and enjoy the income you have at the young age of 29!

I was expecting a somewhat larger helicopter, but hey, even the Wright brothers had to start somewhere. And this time, next year, when you’ll still be 29, I expect you’ll have over 100,000 subscribers and that slightly larger helo will be yours.

Happy Birthday, Yaro. Have only known you for the past 2-3 months, but I like your whole approach to life and blogging and am proud to start affiliating for and with you!
