About ManeeshSethi.com
This is my blog’s main goal: I want you to achieve your dream lifestyle.
It all started with a little seed. One comment from a friend, where he tipped me off that he had studied abroad without Stanford, and it was cheap plus he got to live with young people rather than old crotchety host mothers.
That small seed grew into a vision. I could experience the world alone, without Stanford, and save money. Just a single conversation with a single random friend changed my life.
And then I booked a ticket to Buenos Aires, and started a small business while traveling in Brazil, and it grew and grew while I continued to travel and live my dreams. And then opportunities led to more opportunities, and so on.
I want to be that spark that propels you to achieve your ideal lifestyle.
Great fires start from small sparks. You can’t achieve your ideal lifestyle without starting small.
So I ask you today to think: What, in your wildest impossible dreams, do you think would the most AWESOME, AMAZING, ideal lifestyle that could possibly exist?
I’m going to get you there.
Let me help you. Get in contact with me via email.

Hey Maneesh,
I LOVE the video. Due to that, I’ve joined the Keyword Academy and have put the tools provided, into use. Unfortunately. I’m not very happy with the performance of their optimization tool, NicheFactory.
I am interested in acquiring a copy of the program you put together to efficiently do your searches.
I’m looking forward to your response.
Hello, I just purchased your book, “Game Programming for Teens, 3rd Edition”, and this is supposed to be the official website for support, however, I can’t find a single resource here. The CD which came with the book does not work at all. Is there anyway to download your book’s CD online?
Thanks.
Hey,
If you need the cd, shoot me an email, and I’ll get it to you as soon as I can. maneesh [at] maneeshsethi {dot} com

Hi. I have a problem with the Game Programming for teens Kong Demo. I got every other demo to work but the kong comes up with an error saying it is nulled for unexpected exception. it goes right to the drawimage (ballimage, ball.x,ball.y) what do i do?
I also had this same error and compared the line to the book and could not find the problem – did you figure it out Paul?
You should copy all the files to your computer before running the software, not from the CD

Hi Maneesh. Just signed up for your newsletter. I saw your video on youtube. Just wanted to know some more about your ways of internet marketing. How did you find people to write your articles and edit them? Are they expensive?
Hey!
I use http://www.thecontentauthority.com to write. About 1.5 cents per word for decent quality.
where can i find the link(s) to the blog site that you are generating the majority of your income from?
thanx!

Hi, Maneesh. I bought your book Web Design for Teens but I cannot download the sources for Chapter 7 at http://www.delmarlearning.com/companions/content/1592006078/s_resource/index.asp?isbn=1592006078 neither in Ubuntu nor in Windows.
When I tried (in Ubuntu) I got the following message:

In India I used Reliance, and in the US you can use Virgin Mobile broadband. I usually get a new provider or find a good wifi spot in every new country.
Hi Maneesh,
I bought your book, Game Programming for Teens, for my twelve year old son who is very excited to learn how to make video games. However, the CD BlitzMax program say “This Demo is expired” when I try to run it. I believe this is supposed to be the 30 day trial version. Suggestions?
Thanks,
Bill
Got the same problem here. Nothing would compile, even a simple hello World program. The compiler returned “no source code found” and also “This demo has expired”. After closing MAX IDE, and restarting it, now I get a popup stating that BlitzMaz has expired. Just installed it today. What’s up with this? Please reply asap.
you should email blitz support from http://www.blitzbasic.com
Hey, this is a problem with the Blitz software, you should contact them from their Web site at blitzbasic.com
Thank you for contacting me re: my September 6th request.

Hi,
I’m a 10 year old kid who read “Game Programming For Teens 3rd Edition,” I really, liked it, but I always got a null object error when I compiled any code that had a movable main character.

AutoMidHandle True
‘TYPES
Type TPlayer
Field x,y
End Type
Global Player:TPlayer = New TPlayer
player.x = 400
player.y = 500
playerimage = LoadImage(“ship.bmp”)
‘MAIN LOOP
While Not KeyDown(KEY_ESCAPE)
Cls
DrawImage playerimage, player.x, player.y
If KeyDown(KEY_UP)
player.y = player.y – 5
EndIf
If KeyDown(KEY_DOWN)
player.y = player.y + 5
EndIf
If KeyDown(KEY_RIGHT)
player.x = player.x + 5
EndIf
If KeyDown(KEY_LEFT)
player.x = player.x – 5
EndIf
Wend ‘END OF MAIN LOOP

Mr. Sethi:
I purchased your set entitled “Game Programming for Teens” and I was looking for prices on the full versions of the demos on the “Game Programming for Teens 3rd Edition” and I found that Corel Paint Shop Pro is now called Corel Paint Shop Photo Pro X3. I am assuming that this is the same program, but I could be wrong. To your knowledge, am I correct in my assumption? Thanks for clarifying my dilema.
Hi! You can get the demo from here. It’s part of Corel X5
http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite/us/en/Product/1208530085783#tabview=tab0
And click ‘download trial’
The options may be different in the menu since it’s an updated version, but it should do what you need it to.

Kewel website

Just one question- where is the “Books” section of the site?
there isn’t any…email me if you have any questions about the book, maneesh@maneeshsethi.com
Hey Maneesh!
I was wondering if you’ve been outsourcing your article writing from the beggining or did you write your first hubs by yourself? What is your advice? How many hubs do you post online/month?
Thanks
I worked on my own for the first month, and started outsourcing a month or so later. I have like 3-400 hubs per account, not sure how many I have, but I expand past hubs as well.
Hi Maneesh,
FYI – Your email you sent out to launch your new online marketing program -
Your links are broken and go to a yahoo page unknown results page.
Since I found this bug for you – how about a free copy of the program – LOL
Best Wishes!
Holly
Hey do you have a contact form or just this? There are some problems with your website (technical) which I wanted to let you know about…seems weird to leave them as a comment but here goes.
I am on Chrome with the bit.ly extension installed. I don’t know if this is relevant or not but it may be…? When I visit http://www.manee.sh I am sent to bit.ly instead. I thought your site was shut down until I googled your name and found the longer url.
Cheers
yea, bit.ly makes the root go to their domain when using the service….i’ll need to change soon
Hey mate just wanted to say I love your work, you’ve inspired me to really push my capabilities using the 4hww principles, I was able to liberate myself in August last year (working 30 minutes a month now if I choose) and I have since built a ‘passion project’ around the 4hww philosophies called ‘The Time Rich System’… but follow your movements has made me want to push my life to new levels, I’ll be following closely!!
Cheers Aaron
Thanks man, that means a lot, ping me at maneesh@maneeshsethi.com, I’d love to hear more about your passion project!
