Are We All Just Chasing Fools Gold?

Its an historical fact ,that during many great gold rushes,more money was made selling miners their tools and supplies,than was ever made from gold-anyone see a connection with internet?

 

ok staying in context-how much have you spent on supplies,and how much gold have you found?

 

Gold is real, gold is good

 

I've spent very little on supplies...and through hard work have found quite a bit of gold.

I get your point though OP...great thread idea

 

And where did you find that seam of gold DucattiI1198 ?

 

Don't go chasing a rainbow now. People might share you how to dig and use the tools. But asking where his gold mine is located is a different story.

 

OP : what are you trying to type and achieve out of this thread ?

 

Yes I see this happening. Hosting makes way more money than you do running your sites for a profit. Hosting is instant, ads take a while to earn money off of.

 

Interesting comment op - never thought that way but there is a irony and connection there

I always likened it to the chasing my "holy grail" when looking for that idea that was going to me make stacks of money online

But then i came to realise its like winning the lottery with the amount of people who are also seeking the same thing - so you just find ways to earn a bit of money here and there. It may be boring but at least it helps and that you may secretly never give up on finding the real gold mind

 

There is definitely a similarity between the gold rush and "internet rush". Anyone browsing the buy section can see that.

 

I witnessed gold fever in the Amazon rainforest a good few years back,and the miners were from all walks of society -surgeons down to street cleaners.I can recognize the same levels of hope in myself on the internet sometimes.
