    Don’t expect to make friends here; they are associates at best and nothing more. It’s incredible rare that any true friendships will be developed. Money makes the world go around and while one may hope “to be different” but you would be setting yourself up for a disappointment. While I admit sometimes people find value in general discussions, they are often in an effort to relax so that people can be more effective at the money side of their life, they do it to create connections which ultimately leads to making money or they look to learn something about what may lead to making more money. I would say, don’t consider the concept of making money a bad thing but try to find a balance between the reality that everything ultimately leads to that or try to find a way to make it work for you.

    Not everyone is obsessed by making money. It's just an illusion.

    Because the majority of webmasters create sites as a business venture as opposed to a hobby/passion.

    Simple, really.

    Most webmasters create websites to make money not to say all of them...Lets face it you can't do anything in this world without money, I hate to say that but its the truth.
    Take me for example I started in this internet business to make money, why did i choose internet business and not another type? Well its simple, I have a very little ammount of money so its very difficult to start a business, but with the internet you can .
    Thats what's cool about an internet business, it's the business that requires the less ammount of money to start....

    Well, because money is something which comes with websites...
    If you have a website, and you earn nothing with it... but some people found ways to get 500$ a month out of it.. and it won't annoy your users too much, why wouldn't you do it? :)

    aha this forum is to show people how to make money among other things and your probably just sore becuase no one will give you a free ride then you call there offer a scam without any idea what it's about you would rather do what you love well I love to make money and show others how to make money and get traffic etc most people are here for business not to play in lala land just becuase you love it does not mean the majortiy will so you'll be stuck with what you love that doesn't pay the bills and for someone who doesn't care about making money you seem to look at several offers in the bst section and ridicule the offer as a scam if someone does not accpet your offer of 5% earning which is ridculous as why would anyone do this when they make 10% with you as there refferall I think your full of it lol

    hello and a duh?? it's like going to a porn site and wondering why there are naked people everywhere..

    Dp is not only about making money, it is strategizing and piecing and answering questions. sometimes I lurk just to see what's up..Making money is great but for me I get a rush when my efforts go rewarded... like when you have the last piece to ad to a 15000 piece puzzle....
