    Been looking through this forum and also searched on the net. but can't really find anyone who is really interested to help someone unkwn and a newbie to make some $$$ online. Whoever is interested to help ..wants some $$ first or just asks to buy something from them.
    Ppl give ad buy this ebook and u'll make thoushands. well isn't there anyone who can really offer something as a loan.....u first make ur money then just give me 50% .
    Looking for ppl like that.
    cudn't even find any video tutorial on google or youtube that'll help me to learn coding or etc.
    i am thinking to leave this scenario and just enjoy net for music and movies and news.
    i was just trying to make some $$ to pay the net bills.i think there r many new ppl (may be not in DP but on the net) who r in the same situation as i am.
    AM i jsut wasting my time or wat?!!!!!

    mak4bd , people will only help you as much , and this isnt just for the internet , its about doing anything in life. If you really want that $$$ or anything in life , you just have to work hard yourself, to discover yourself , yes books, people will guide you every now and then , but the main application is yours, i can bet that atleast 50% of the people on this site have started making some $$$ only after they have been on the forums, got some ideas , made improvements , etc, they learnt quite a lot of the trade on this forum itself, by observing , by learning , im pretty sure no one spoon fed them too , they why should you be different.

    You sound like you expect people to do it for you!

    Search this site...there is TONS of information on how to make money on the web. But just like in any career field, you have to WORK to make the money...you can't just start off by sitting on your but and refreshing your paypal (or insert other generic term here) page every 5 seconds....it doesn't work like that...

    And about a loan...do you really expect someone who doesn't know you to just up and give you a loan in hopes you MIGHT be able to pay them back?

    There are plenty of people here, and elsewhere on the web that are willing to help, but you have to put forth the effort to merit getting that help...

    well i am jsut talking about internet...not about life. its confusing when ppl tell me to invest u here and there. my suggestoin is "if someone is interested to take someone else as an apprentice" then they can post those big topics: make $$$$$$ a dollar. they create another website to share their thouhts. it seems like cheap marketing.i am not here to debate. but wat i want to knw is some one really there who is interested to share their true success stories one on one....not in websites to brag!

    If people walked around with a guaranteed idea on how to make money, why the hell would they give the idea away to you, instead of making money from it theirself ? Think about that.

    You got to find something that interests you, that you can work with, a niche that is perfect for you. Remember, you don't have to go international. Let's say paintball is your thing. Make a paintballsite for your state or city, with board, directory and magazine.

    Find your own niche, and don't expect anything for free!

    That's the way this business is...it's about making money...and it's more profitable to make a website about your experiences then talking with people one on one...though those people DO exist...you just have to get out a magnifying glass and look really hard :D

    Yeah, things like that are a little annoying...though we'll just have to live with them (i usually ignore them...specially if it's a newer member with low posts...)

    Your right above though...trying is the best thing to do...eventually you'll find someone to guide you personally...though in todays world it might take a while (sad but true)

    You have to do your own thing and make your own money. Be careful to only believe a small percentage of what you read. If people who claim to be making thousands a month were really making that would they be on here bragging? Some do make it big but I tend not to believe the ones who brag the most. Find a good niche, take the time to build it and look for a long term goal, not the quick buck.

    Well, technically speaking no one would give valuable tips away for free especially if it means losing some market share in that field.

    Then again, people who sells ebooks about making money could actually be making money selling the hope then actually selling some earth-shattering method. When it comes to secrets of making money, people would really get selfish over it because like we say in the east, it is their rice bowl.

    I mean like if you happen to go to the lake and found gold lying in the lake, will you go dig all you can and keep it to yourself or would you tell everyone in the neighborhood about the gold and share what could have been yours ?

    I remember not too long ago someone was selling an ebook about making money but when someone bought it, it was a PDF file with only one liner and that is to create crappy ebooks to sell.

    Then again last year, I met someone online which I tried to help and then he took advantage of me, he first wanted a copy of my Paypal statement and also my ePassporte statement then I kindda found it suspicious. I later found out that he was trying to sell an ebook about making money in online and he tried to lie about making millions of dollars through it and in his sales page was a doctored Paypal Statement, pictures of Lotus cars which he claims he has three and several hours all from using the tricks in his ebook. It was like all scam.

    Then again, I guess it is part of the human greed or wanting to make it big and rich which drives these people to be able to sell a dream and a hope. A lot of people especially those who are struggling would inevitably buy into the scams.

    Money is a very powerful carrot and if you dangling it, you be sure that people would come knocking at your door. It is a sad sad world that there are people who exploit that human weakness.

    Let me be honest here and say that I worked very hard during the last 15 years of my life and I've been through a number of failures and hardships and I am definitely not going to give anyone a step-by-step of what to do on a silver platter. Why should I ?

    However I could and would drop some tips along the way but anyone who wants to succeed would have to take their own journey and learn from that.

    Well, the general concept of "Those who know do. Those who don't, share with others." always applies.

    Also - internet marketing newbies don't really have a PR comparable to starving kids in Africa. People are simply less likely to help because they don't feel sympathy.

    earning money isn't that easy as people advertise"earn $100/day easily....sossoso".you have to have patience ,determination and destination.Its a hard work though.
    people won't come to you ,you must go for a search.
    you said someone could help you getting money,why don't to go to buy and sell forum and do some good services for people,you'll earn money.

    i was on same conditions before i came to DP ,i was just dying for some paid to click programs and autosurf where i used to get $1-2,now i came to Dp i started to Learn i don't care about earning because when you have patience and determination in mind money will Definitely Follow you.

    So just Try to Do what You Enjoy Money will Come Knocking You.

    Don't give up so easily.. at first we all don't start earning money right away: eventually you'll find the best way for you to earn money online.. Have you been reading the posts around the forums? You can always ask specific questions..

    Nah nothing is impossible. I've made about $90 in about 2 months without so much work. Just keep looking and stick to one idea and give it all you got. Good luck!

    The problem is your looking for the golden key.....

    You know how to make money online already, build a website, sell something (your product, affiliate, or advertising) and send traffic to it!

    Its as easy as that.

    Get to work and start building your websites, that fact you keep wasting time looking for a solution on how to make money online without doing any work is what is stopping you from earning... (there are no free rides, It all takes work)

    Get cracking! Good Luck!
