Same old IM guru cliches .. Screw them all!

    You all heard the words "you don't need a list of your own, a product of your own, not a penny out of your own pocket ..." bla bla blaaa ... But there IS actually a way of making a serious income just like all the self proclaimed "gurus" are claiming that they have an answer to (which in 99.9% of the cases they DO NOT). Something that we should have seen a long time ago.

    No messing around with the arrogant bastards at institutions like Google, Clickbank or the CPA networks .. screw them, we don't need them anymore (did we ever?). But there are millions of people that needs US!!! All over the world, people need YOU and your expertise (or the expertise you OWN .. I'll come to that later) every day, and that's the way it's going to be forever, unless this world comes to an end any time soon (or at least more info about my product when/ if I will release it).

    The initials of this method that have worked for thousands of years is OA. And I'm thinking of producing a video series about it. If you have the slightest clue of what I'm talking about, give me your best guess, and you'll win a round trip to Mars.

    What a clever (and typical) rag-on-the-gurus marketing approach.

    To you give a very short answer to a very short post (appreciate your effort);

    First: My post is NOT a pitch, it is more of a market research.

    Third (guess where #2 went): You don't know what I'm talking about PM me and I will let you know (I don't have a product out, and I don't even know if I'm going to create one ... ).

    Pat

    Quoting and replying your own posts may be considered sick, but when it comes to the written word I am kind of a perfectionist... this line "(or at least more info about my product when/ if I will release it)" were supposed to be at the very end of the post.

    every newbie buys into the guru's stuff... but eventually they realize most of it is crap.

    I agree with you most of the gurus suck but that doesn't mean everyone sucks. I am making money and I do buy a lot of stuff. Ofcourse 99% of stuff is crap but 1% is still pure gold.
    In offline world people aren't there to handout money to you, you do have to take courses , get a job and then make money. rules are quite similar Brother.

    You don't know if and when you 'd have a product. So what point are you trying to make or are you exercising your fingers out of boredom?

    Don't know what OA is, but to me it's all about getting off your butt and doing something that you are good at
