ok... everyone has seen those get rich with an online business, work from home, be your own boss type things...

i took to time to look into a few of these are they ARE registered with the BBB (Better Business Bureau) but that still is not 100% evidence that they are legit...

has anyone tried one of these programs that supposedly teaches you step by step how to achieve finacial freedom? if so what were your results... is it really possible to make a living off something like this if you put in the required time and effort?

and then my next question... if it is possible... why arent more people doing this and paying 9.99 to get started on their way financial freedom instead dishing out rediculous amts of money to go to college???

someone fill me in on this please...

i'm assuming you need a damn good idea to be financially independent by it. you need to advertise to the right people in the right way. i'm sure its a lot harder than "ZOMG!!!11oen1 i mad3 100 dollars a dayy donig  nuffin on ma kumpewter!!!1111."

because on those infomercials where people sell stuff online and make money don't tell you how many people don't make any money. The people that are claiming to make money might just be actors too.

If you want to make money with the internet you need a website thats going to generate a lot of traffic and therefore a lot of ad revenue. Thats how google makes money.
