Something that I really struggled with when I first started working online is all the contradicting advice that is available online.
I spent such a long time trying to figure out how to learn everything I needed to know, bouncing from one website to the next and it seemed every time I thought I had figured something out I would be given completely contradicting information.
Being a newbie I felt completely alone and like I was just being pushed all around. It was incredibly frustrating.
There is just so much misinformation! What has your experience been with this and how did you manage to learn everything you know?
Oh and it is great to have this community discussion now, I place where I can discuss ideas and check the things I have learned or heard about.
So many different experts that can each share their knowledge and debate the answers to questions!

I wish I had something like the community discussion when I started out. I wouldn't have wasted thousands of dollars on courses, ebooks, and memberships just to learn what to do in order to make some money online. So many times I fell into the "Guru" trap and just flung money at something that was suppose to help me make a passive income online. You know, the type of income we all are chasing so that we can put in 60 hours of work and then 1 hour a week after that lol.

When I started I was making my own path since I never had a mentor or someone showing me how to do something. Or even more important, I didn't have someone telling me what NOT to do lol. I learned by trial and error and figured out everything as I went. With the Community Discussion you can just post a question, discussion, debate, theory, etc. and people are more than willing to help you out, which is rare.
I actually like helping people online because I don't want them to struggle like most of us did in the beginning. I actually have people think I'm trying to scam them because of how nice I am. I recently posted online on a newer website and I was willing to help someone get a free design, hosting, and marketing... but the thread I posted instantly became a "Razzy is scamming people!" thread lol. I did get a couple people send me emails about a niche they wanted to get started in but didn't have enough money to get a new website up. All I had them do was buy the domain and I did everything else :)
If you guys and girls like the community discussion, like I do, please pay it forward and help out a stranger :)

Also, be careful in choosing your "gurus" - I choose mine by looking how successful they really are not how successful they're telling me they are... Solution to figure out misinformation is testing stuff yourself. Don't just trust anyone point black, research and test those claims for yourself. If both the experts and you have the same conclusion, well, that's pretty much to most relevant "truth" you'll ever get right?
