This is what happens when I get bored.

    You can get a lot of great info here at DP, but you also run across a lot of people trying to sell you ebooks and other programs promising you a lot of money. In all of these get rich quick schemes I've seen, the author claims to be some filthy rich entrepreneur who's sharing his secrets.

    I don't know about you guys, but I'm starting to get tired of seeing the same tired formula being repeated over and over again. So I've decided to create my own scheme that's just a little bit more honest about how rich the author really is. Check it out.

    I have other projects I should have been working when I did this, but this was just too much fun.

    Well just like body art making a web site is no fun unless you can share it with people.

    Hey Raisin - your landing page is damn funny. Best of luck! Hope a lot of people buy your guide!

    Would give you one suggestion though - make the landing page longer, add more content... I was almost convinced to go for it... would even pay more for the guide if you had some rock solid content.

    Yeah I had a wee read, it is pretty funny :)

    I agree, a website with no visitors is pointless.

    Yeah that is something to consider. I started writing the thing as a joke, so the content isn't as long as it could be since I didn't want to sink too much time into something which isn't serious. If I hear more positive feedback on this, I'll probably be motivated to write more content.

    I count at *least* 8 spelling errors, numerous grammar errors, and a few typos.

    If you seriously want people to buy your eBook, you might want to look into fixing at least *some* of these issues.

    All the great money making ideas are filled with spelling and grammar mistakes. That's how people know it's legit. If you don't believe me you can ask some of my Nigerian buddies.

    When I am really bored, I will simply shut down my system and go for a brisk walk. Just to pump in that extra oxygen to the brain:)
