Wanted: Will Pay Coder/Programmer Tutor/Mentor/Friend/Partner

Just adding this in there because haven't mentioned it ... Visual Basic 2010 express is freeware. It seems to be a trial, and you do have to register for a free key, and you could upgrade it by paying and have access to various plugins (which I see no value from).

But basically you can just download all visual studio express (vb, c++, etc.) and its all free. You can make programs and sell the programs or give them away, no royalties necessary.

I went with 2010 over 2012 for compatibility reasons. You can http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/products/visual-studio-2010-express.

Wait, what? You say that you are able to teach yourself and have a provable background in online self-education, then why are you looking to pay someone? Save your money, we're living in 2013 where there are so many online courses and information available for free for everyone to use. If you are really that determined, go ahead and teach yourself instead of paying someone.

There's a free course on Python starting in 4days. A good opportunity if you're not experienced in programming.

I was basically being sarcastic to rutix's post saying that "vb/c# sux for js and ajax. The browser control has limited number of functions.For ex. there is no function for checking if the page is fully loaded (js execution finished)." ... above I listed 2 functions and 3 methods to check that a page has fully loaded and that js execution has finished.

well, the thing u mention are hacks, not a proper way to handle the problem. I dont say that we should not use em, but sometimes u cant rely on them.

I been trolled. No worries I'll take it in good humor.

YouFeelMeDawg is speaking from experience and he has written a post that is more valuable than all the money in the world.
It took me years of my life to finally fully understand what YouFeelMeDawg are talking about.
It important to use the newest technologies, working with a more simple and elegant code and get the sh1t done fast, take a peek at the new ideas and look on what the people are working on.
You are you own boss, so you can choose what to learn and use in production and when to change to another more appropriate tool for your work.
Take a modular look at the problems, separate the concerns, work with something easy to work alone or in a small team.

Python is the only language you'll ever need for all types of programming needs, not only for IM specific tasks.
Go to codeacademy.com and take some free course online on python.
Go here's and read some free python ebooks: http://pythonbooks.revolunet.com .
It's open source, no licenses, no big corporation controlling it, no big coorporation sueing Google over copyright infringement, no big slow-ass IDE needed, no bolierplate code needed, no time wasted compiling and linking, cross-platform, open and big community, modular and plug and play libraries, clean and easy to read code, easy to extend in C, ....

I would just suggest go as far as you can from uBot and ZennoPoster and other shitty stuff like that (time wasters) , I myself made mistake by learning both and let me tell you if you can learn any of those and make complex bot, you surely can learn programming in some dynamic programming Language like Ruby or Python. Someone already mention codding its mostly the same in any language, specially the web programming the language of your choice specially for beginning should be something with simple sintax, after you pick up OOP concept only the sky its limit, JavaScript, Jquery, Ruby, Pythone, C# its all code.

I assume you are in early 20s so allow yourself up to 1 year in "upgrading" yourself with knowledge, and the money, the money will follow.

Consider reading this amazing articles by Derek on the subject:

Learn Basic Programming ->http://sivers.org/prog
Memorize Any Programming Language -> http://sivers.org/srs

Also Derek its the man to follow, incredibly mind!

Learn everything online! I am not saying you will become a programming god overnight but learning a bit of theory and using snippits found online together will get you really far!

I have learned most of my programming online. I only took 4 courses in my school career (3xJava 1xC++) and by the time I took them I had already learned more online so they were almost a waste of time. Online tutorials and courses are amazing! Take advantage of them!

I would say start out with C# or AutoIT. C# is relatively easy in the grand scheme of things and AutoIT is great for small projects to be created in a short amount of time. These two languages have earned me an enormous amount of money and saved countless hours by automating monotonous tasks.

Also Consider buying a programming book. I have read a few in my spare time and they really help solidify my theory. Once you know programming theory then learning new languages is a breeze for the most part! Surely you will be wanting to learn languages like javascript and PHP after creating your applications if you are making money online .

I hope this helps! Keep your $100 and ask questions on forums. People are eager to help!
