Hey... most of you know that on the internet are a lot of comapnies telling you can make 100$/ day... 500$... 1000$ one even promises you 7000$ a day... but not all of them are businesses and good one`s... If you were to find one that will surelly pay you... how much would you invest to start that business: Is it 1000$, 300$, 50$, 30$, 10$ or nothing like myLot??? How much would you pay???

The amount you pay isn't a good indication of how good a business opportunity is. You can pay over a million dollars for a McDonalds franchise and still fail. Is McDonalds a scam? Don't pay more than you can afford. Investigate, investigate, investigate. Don't let your greed make you fall for hype. There are many legitimate opportunities online. Some free, some cheap, some expensive.

Absolutely nothing. There are many individual skills that many process that can be used as a way of making your own income online. Never pay anything.

I have 8 businesses that bring me money... my rule is to work at first then make very business generate all by itself money... my effort being less as the business brings more... and after a while i just monitor the business to see if it`s ok... if things complicate depends on the business I either sell it, give it up or resolve the porblem.. depends which situation keeps the most profit to me...

I would pay nothing, because there is alwaysa a catch somewhere, the wording is so cleverly done that it attracts you by promising a lot, but committing nothing, and then you are left with a credit card bill to face with nothing to show.

For an online business, which is honest and based on real life selling, I mustn't pay more investment then 150$ .... and after that comes the hard work, meaning reliability to myself in following my own schedule day by day

Hey, if I could be sure it'd pay me, I'd invest everything I got. But there's enough people tricking you in the real world, over the INTERNET it's 99.999% scams.

I think that what you should invest on is time. And a lot of thought before going into online business. If it's really feasible and there is a market for your product, then go all out and invest your money to start your own business. Spend what it takes to make it out there because there's lots of competition

I guess if your going to do the online business type most business opportunties start off with good intentions but then when you have to many people onboard the business opportunity model it becomes more of a price war. Meaning you wont win because your competition is selling the same product. For example if your from the US there is a program called SMC. Not to bash the program but there are a lot of people trying to sell SMC products on ebay which results in price wars. By the way I tried this program. It does ok but you really have to promote like crazy to see any return. keep your money by the way. If you plan to sell items retail sell items that are unique. For example Scubers(sorry if i spelled it wrong) since your from Romania you can look for items that are normally made there but are not avaiable in other parts of the country. People are normally big on unique decor or unique foods(assuming they dont spoil when shipping) If you create your own website it would cost you to host the site minimum 5.00 for example on godaddy If your not computer savy or have ever created a website you can go the cheap way and make one using mozilla which has a basic web page developer. High end programs such as Dreamweaver will cost you money but then you still need to train yourself. Another route is threw sites where you dont have to know any programing and there are some sites that offer that which is a little more like 10 dollars. Then have a pay pal account set up so that you can have your transactions come that way. I would say all together with items, webspace, about 300 to 500 dollars. Then you got to remember you cant forget the marketing. maybe another 100 dollars. You cant sell products if people dont know you exist.
