    Hi there everyone...

    I am new to all this. Have tried some of the get rich quick scams on the web and they suck.

    Can anyone tell me of any genuine opportunity that actually works.

    Passport2Wealth, My Internet Business, The Rich Jerk etc etc... They all seem far too good to be true, depsite the Paypal screen prints???

    Thanks...

    You nailed it ;)
    Pigs don't fly and they never will so don't fall for it. Dedication and hard work is about the only way to reach any goal.

    don't pay before you get the product and makes sure you check the background of anyone you do business with.

    If any of those programs ever ask you to pay first before they will pay you, then by all means, it's just a scam.

    if it's true that earning your first million online is a duck soup, I'm pretty sure that DP forum would be a deserted place. Why? It's because all of us here are in our fave getaway (Maldives) right now chugging an expensive booze.

    Wel, what is it that YOU want to do?

    And no mater what it is, if you want to make a lot of money, you have to advertise.

    I'm sorry, but that is the bottom line.

    You actually have people send you their product without you paying for it?

    What he is saying is that if the plan is too make you money yet you have to pay the planner before you make a buck, its a scam.

    Think of it as a referral program, do they pay you before you give them the referral? No, you get paid when they get some cash or useful information.

    Here's a good rule of thumb: If any program asks you to pay to participate, it's a SCAM.

    Actually, what he really said was:
    "don't pay before you get the product and makes sure you check the background of anyone you do business with."

    Ya I am familiar with the sites you mentioned. I have read hundreds of IM ebooks and over the last few months I heve not learned anything new. The internet is still a small world believe it or not. I am a market expert who has tested over 100 different niche/markets. I would suggest you start promoting clickbank products using free SEO keyword optimization. Use squidoo if you don't have a blog yet.

    Yes, it's true IM books don't have anything new to offer because it's just a piece of old recycled sheet of electronic paper.

    Maybe because EVERY "money" making idea is just that, a scam.

    Stop buying into marketer's propaganda!

    There no quick way to make a lots of money
    You must earn it by hard work.
    What you can do is offering some service to other people such as link building/seo/sem/dir submission
