Hi everyone!

So this time I'm not gonna ask or 'solve' any issue concerning to NBE. I didn't know where to post this (excuse me Lotus if I am wrong!) but since this is the only forum that I visit (I wasn't a forum person until I found breastnexus!) & I need your point of view because hell, we all are different and we come from different cultures so...!

A little bit of background , I studied Law , I went to Law School for so many years (in fact I got accepted to PhD program last year) but a depression changed everything, and by everything I mean my whole vision of the things. So yes, I love being a lawyer , but it's exhausting and I got...not tired, but I got unmotivated last year I could not stand the pressure anymore so by the moment I am not taking any course and I am not doing anything related to the PhD. Maybe some day I'll decided to get back on it but for now I have other interests. And one of these interests is the marketing career, though I am a newbie on this too I've learnt a lot this last months. Currently I am in master which involves marketing&law at the same time, and we've been discussing on e-commerce and sales, plus affiliate marketing.

If you don't know what I mean, e-commerce is the way that websites have to sell their products through internet according to their consume, digital, civil and commercial law (i.e , money back guarantee, rights as a consumer, contracts, moral rights, author rights etc) . Affiliate marketing , on the other hand , means you get a commission through selling/sponsoring a product or a company's whole retail. As you can imagine, I know what to expect from the legal side, but I have no idea just the theory on the consumers' behavior(s) . So I would be very thankful if you could answer to these questions, there are like 15 but I guess all of them are easy. My goal is to see if we think and consume in the same way .
