Hello
everybody,
Let
me take this opportunity to introduce myself shortly. I was born
in the Netherlands in 1948 near to the border with Belgium.
Just a few kilometers away from Antwerpen, the most prominent
town of Flanders. I was the fifth child in a family with six childern
and grew up in a village dominated by agriculture. Greens and animals
were my best friends and still I am fascinating by the periodic changes
of nature and the repeating of the seasons. I still keep
wundering.
At school
I
was a good student and I got the opportunity to visit a
secondary
school in the neighbouring town, Bergen op Zoom, about 10 kilometers
away. This was at that time a great privilege because just 5 to 10 % of
the youngsters got this opportunity. The year of
birth sometimes is of
great importance for a successful career. Again life was good to me and
I got the opportunity
even to visit a university thereafter.
At the age
of 17 years I
started my study in physics at the Technical University of
Delft;
a beautiful small town under the smoke of Rotterdam. In the beginning I
had some problems being devorced from home. Finally I mastered all
the problems and got an excellent degree and another opportunity
too.
I
got the opportunity to start a Ph D study in
infrared physics for astronomy; very exciting and complicated too. At
the same time I decided to buy a house -- a very old one - in the city
of Delft without having a penny. I was house owner for HFl 30.000 and
my parents didn't feel well after I informed them. However eight years
later it turned out I made the right decision because I sold the same
house for HFl 80.000. By the way this was not the result of a
long
calculus and expertice in real estate. No it was the result of a strong
believe in a prosperous future.
At
that time - 1981 - I was already living in Erlangen in Germany
because I joined a big company, a global player, in 1980. After
presenting excellent results of my Ph D study in Berlin in
1980 I
got three offers from Germany to join institutions and companies to
continue my career in Germany. So I made to my opinion the best choice
and joined Siemens to do R&D.
I
was really passionated by
the work I did contributing to science, new technologies and patent
applications. I was guiding very many students from the universities
during their Bachelours, Masters and Doctor studies thereby developing
my skills in teaching and education. This chapter was closed after my
retirement in 2008.
During this period of my life I learned so many valuable skills - apart
from science and technology - which are of great use to master common
life.
After
your retirement you can do what you
like............ is what many people are saying. This is true
............if you have the money to do so!
My idea was to realize some
of my patents with students and to make new products out of
it in
order to generate some employment. After doing the calculus it comes
out,
that I need about 3,000€ per month for it. My bank told me
that it
is not a good idea to pick up a credit for it at an age of 60 years.
"At
what age, my dear Daalmans, do you want to pay your credit back?".
So
I decided to earn the money myself by offering my advice to small
businesses and founded "Daalmans
Innovations Ltd" to do that. However
this offer doesn't result in a continueous money current; sometimes
there is......sometimes there is no money because I just can make one
job at a time. Therefore I was looking for another source of money and
found the internet as a possible source of income.
The
internet has changed our lifes and it will do even more in the future;
the internet is may be the greatest invention of the twentieth century.
However it is not so simple to earn money from the internet as a lot of
marketer in the "make money niche" are trying to believe you. Most of
them are selling dreams who never come true. It took me two years and
the discovery of Chris Farrell's site to understand this. From Chris I learned to develope
skills first........... before trying to make money online.
