Own Your Own Website or Host Other People's Websites
You're going to need hosting....
Let's be honest, it's hard to discuss owning and operating a website without discussing hosting! Whether you're thinking of operating your own website, or you are looking at building and/or operating/maintaining websites for others, the topic of hosting is going to come up at some point - generally fairly early on! All websites need to be HOSTED somewhere! And, whether you're a novice or seasoned veteran, the ever-changing world of hosting can be its own daunting realm for many people. Thankfully, Digital.com has you covered!

1) What is MONEY?
Money - yeah, it's more than just coins and banknotes. Even those things are almost starting to seem like 'ancient relics' for many our modern world! While many dictionaries will indeed give at least one of the definitions of "money" as a form or denomination of coin or paper money, it's the first definition given for MONEY in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary that we will be using here as we discuss money:
1) something generally accepted as a medium of exchange, a measure of value, or a means of payment: such as
a: officially coined or stamped metal currency - e.g. newly minted money
b: money of account
c: paper money - e.g. handed the bank teller a wad of money
Just like grams and ounces are used to measure mass and weight, money is a system of measurement as well, it is one way of measuring the value of both tangible and intangible things in an agreed-upon quantifiable sense.

2) Relationships with money:
Just like your relationship with your friend, sister, car, bed, brother, significant other, exercise, or the printer at work, relationships with animate and inanimate objects - even concepts and ideas - are all a part of everyone's lives. As we've already established, the underlying premise of this website is that almost all of us spend a significant portion of our lives trying to acquire, guard, manage, and otherwise deal with money in this 21st Century world of ours, so it is probably safe to say that the vast majority of us have some kind of an ongoing relationship with money in our lives.
Just like any other relationship we have with anything or anyone in life, people's relationships with money can and do vary enormously. Robert Kiyosaki's "holy grail" 1997 book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, and several other publications that have come out over the years since, talk about people's relationships with money beautifully. No, this isn't a "plug" for his book, ha, ha!
What if I were to tell you that a lot of people out there fear money! Yes, even those very same people who say they "wish they were rich," or they "wish they had more money" - yes, them! Would you believe me?
What if I were to tell you that there are also a lot of people out there who think that money is bad! Yes, BAD, like "the root of all evil" kind of bad - it doesn't get much worse than that! Would you believe me if I told you that you can even catch people out there in this world with this kind of self-professed relationship with money who claim they desire to have more of it?!
There are also many out there who are forced to interact and engage with money in their lives (just like most of us on this planet), but don't have a clear, conscious relationship with money. I mean, clearly, they are engaged and interacting with money, by that definition in and of itself they have a relationship of sorts with it, but they cannot conceptualize it, vocalize it, organize their thoughts around it, or form a personal "game plan" when it comes to money in their lives. Most engagements these kinds of people have with money run something like the story of a first dance in high school - awkward and clueless.
How can you ever expect to be happy in your romantic relationship if you have a terrible relationship with your significant other? How can you ever expect to be productive and feel fulfilled and successful at work if you have a terrible relationship with your job? How can you ever expect to be financially wealthy if you have a terrible relationship with money? The answer to all these question is: unless you act to change your terrible relationships, your long-term success is going to be limited and very difficult to achieve, if it can be achieved at all!
Of course, there are also people in this world who have very healthy relationships with money.
A whole book could be written on relationships with money (Kiyosaki and others have written such books, and I encourage you to read these famous books!), so I won't go any further with this section. I will leave us with some thoughts and questions to ponder... What kind of a relationship do you have with money right now? Are you happy with the current relationship you have with money? If you are not, how would you change your relationship with money? What kind of a relationship do you wish you had with money?

This list is not static. I add to it from time to time when I have more content and information ready to create another section. Making money is also a frequent topic I write about on the Andreas Philip Gross Enterprises blog, which you can access right here.
