Sir, Teach Me How To Make Money

Sir, Teach Me How To Make Money
Free Download - Internet Businesses - The First Advice You Must Listen To Before Any Other By David Lim
Name: Email:

I started a site about online home businesses a few years ago. The site serves as a guide to somebody looking to start a home business and I do not really sell anything on the site. On occasion, my inbox will have an email with a single sentence that reads something like the one below:

"Sir, tell me how to make money on the Internet."

In the beginning, I would send him a proper reply. I would tell him that making money on the web is not something that you can do on a whim, and that hard work and skills are needed. I would enquire about his background and skill sets.

I don't think I ever got a second email. The sender was probably looking for a simple turnkey solution and I didn't offer him one.

Come to think of it, there was an instance when somebody emailed me and told me he liked my site very much. And that he would very much like to join my site. It took me a moment before I realized that he was thinking that my site was some sort of business opportunity that he could join and make money.

I studied electronics engineering at a local college for 3 years. I did electronics design for a further 10 years. It is only after this period of time that the industry considered me good and experienced enough to be earning a few thousand dollars a month.

Many sites will tell you that you can potentially make a few thousand dollars a month if you work their program. Every single time, they will also tell you that anybody can do it and no experience is needed. In fact, they will tell you that an unemployed odd job laborer made $1200 after his first month on their program, or something similar.

The only thing I can say is, "Use your common sense."

I mean, if a man were to offer you a lot of money to do something really easy, would you do it? Say you were offered $100 to deliver a parcel to a nearby address. Would you do it?

You will not run the errand right? You will say that you need to wash your hair, walk briskly away and never look back right?

You know that the $100 is not just for delivering the parcel and that there is definitely a catch involved. He is probably hoping that you will stick around to find out and he will charm you into doing it.

The Internet has been called the most revolutionary development in the history of human communication, or the great equalizer, or the information superhighway. Whichever superlatives you use, the same rules regarding money still apply to the Internet. Money still has to be earned and competition for it is extremely keen. So, the sooner you get off "the roads are paved with gold" mentality, the sooner you will start putting in the time and work needed for a successful home business.
