Why Do People Ask Questions Only To Doubt The Answers?

OK, I don't understand why this happens. We all know that many of the questions on here are 'How can I make money', 'How do you make money', etc., basically asking for advice on making money online.
But then when an answer is given on how you make money, or give them information on a money making opportunity, they want you to somehow Prove that you're doing it, or come back at you with...'If this is true, then...?' and then ask a ton of questions that would easily be answered in less than a minute by just visiting the site that was recommended.
I just don't get it!
It would be one thing if those answering questions or recommending a site were obviously promoting an affiliate site, but when there is no 'See my profile' or 'I'll send a link', etc.......What is there to question?

I think it is people's nature to question and disbelieve. They may think someone is trying to scam them or maybe they've trusted before and been scammed. What they don't seem to consider is why would anyone want to refer them to a site that does not pay? If they're not going to be paid obviously neither is the refferrer. I do always try to help my downline out if they have further questions or any problems with a site. And it doesn't really bother me too much when they keep replying back with more and more questions. If I truly believe in the site I'm referring them too and really want them in my downline I'll answer any questions they have that I can answer.

Sure, if dealing with that type of situation, a downline I mean, then answering all the questions is part of it...But here's the thing, I have seen recommendations that are not part of a downline or referral program, just a site that provides a real opportunity to make good money online.
The person recommending the site is not going to benefit one way or the other, so why in the world would they provide false info?
I guess it's just as you said, human nature.
That, or they've just never made good money online, or known anyone who has, so it's hard for them to believe that it really is possible.

Exactly! And that's why they're still asking 'How can I make money online'. They have so much doubt, it makes them unwilling to even try the real opportunities being recommended by others trying to help them out.

Ahhh...that does make sense! I guess if you're asking questions just to make a penny, you would doubt real opportunities!!
