Wow,
Its all about the context, - Seriously, how can you expect this for $15?
The saying you get what you pay for is true.
I started about 2 years ago here with no budget - then i built a blog spot site, did some affiliate marketing and invested any earnings. I would then rinse, outsource (to repeat) and focus on bigger projects.
Now, 2 years on I am full time IM (and a little drunk) but you should aim a little higher.
Remember - you pay peanuts, you get monkeys.
