(Money )What is this really all about

I see that you have only been here a very short time. When you have been searching for ways to make money on line for several months, and after you have been scammed again and again, then you come back and tell us how easy it is to make money if only we wanted to work. While I agree that there are some people who could do better if they applied themselves I also know that there are a lot of people who are doing the best they can and still are forced to live below the poverty line. It is not fair to label everyone who is not working as lazy.

I used to think the way you do. However I learned it is no different in making money on the internet as in any other way. The first thing you need is to be willing to work. Then you need a good solid battle plan. Then you need a bunch of money to pull it off. Only invest your own money in your own ability. Never bet your money on the ability of anyone else. If you do the odds are real good they will let you down and in most cases you will loose your money. Learn how to sell on eBay or from a web site and then at least you can be in control of what you sell and how you sell it. About 6 months ago I proved this theory. I was involved with a company on the internet. I was making a nice profit. My mistake was I had about $1,400 of my money invested. Everything went fine for a little while but the first thing I knew the company closed their doors and I lost every cent of my money. I was betting my money on the ability of someone else.

All right, let us say that you bought a house, you are paying $600 a month mortgage, plus $100 for utilities, and $400 a month for food, not counting clothes, transportation, and other expenses. You are still paying $100 a month for your car, not including insurance and transportation. Now you make $40,000 a year and your wive makes $20,000, and you have five children, one who goes to college, and works part time as does another who works as a hostess in a restaurant. You have put a down payment down of $20,000. So let us say that you lost that job and the only job that is available will pay you $25,00 a year, your wife's job is not defunct and she can just get babysitting, and your University child and the child who works at the restaurant have already had their hours cut. So let us suppose you are the only one working and you only make $25,000 a year. So now you have to sell your car, and there is no bus to your job, so you may have to quit that job well. So in essence you are still working, but situations have changed. So you may have to work sixteen hours every day including Sundays. The recession means that jobs are harder to come by, they will get paid less, people will no longer afford to get a mortgage, they will have to rent, they may not be able to afford a car, they may not be able to afford a bus ticket. What this means that people will still be making, it is just that you may have to give up a lot of what you worked for, and live on your savings, and since you will be doing that, you will be no longer going to the restaurant or buying new shoes. You will either go without or shop at the Goodwill. It may sound idealistic to think well we will all be fine, but remember I lived through the 90s recession, and now I am saving like crazy because when I was a telemarketer then, there were hardly any customers.

You ought to come to India, where I am currently living. In Delhi, 45% of the population lives in a slum. Many are so poor they sleep in a small hut made from cardboard, sticks, plastic bags, or whatever else they can find. They have no opportunity to get a good education. They could never dream about having enough money to buy a computer...they probably have no idea what they internet is. Most were likely born in the slum. Can they make a lot of money just by trying? A very few might be able to, with a lot of luck, but the average could work hard every day, and still only make enough to survive. They are lucky to make one US dollar a day. Meanwhile, inflation is 7% a year.

Yes, there are plenty opportunities out there. But there are also plenty of scums, that will steal your money and your work. It makes people numb, they just afraid to become victims. And most horrible thing is, that some**censored** steal from desperate people, promising them huge ernings, if they first pay small sum. Poor idiots never see their saving again.
