Any idea why most people don,t want to invest in a business but want to make lots of money.?

Honestly for me it is exactly what somashekhar said...being scammed makes it hard to want to put forth the money! I do have to say I finally put my faith in someone again and it has paid off for me. I have made $340 since December 17th..now thats not a lot BUT IN THE TWO YEARS I HAVE BEEN TRYING to work online that is more than I had made to date and the amount is only going to grow. As a matter of fact by the end of today I should make a minimum of another $130 possibly more:) I am so excited f

I just read through this thread again and even though it's years old, the comments would still stand today in most people's minds. The difference is now I found a simple advertising plan that anyone with a couple of bucks in a PayPal account can use to start leveraging that into serious money. Most people have had no luck getting referrals for anything like this, but I found a way ANYONE can do it. Of course most people dreaming about making money online will let their skepticism block them from

For it is too much risk to invest in business before getting money back

Probably these people are scammed many times.

@Elizabeth the thing you don't understand is that in the United States that is simply not true. We are courted so heavily by advertisers, that starting with nothing is simple.

if you want earn money,you have to give some money.nothing is for free.but the most people dont wanna give enything.that is the problem

Well, Lots of person don't want to do anything and get more. But how can possible it. So according my opinion this rubs talking.

yes.nothing is for free.but a lot of people think so.you have to give something,to get a lot.

@Arun... The FTC ... and other governmental proposed Acts such as SOPA and many others are really recognising this and there will be ramifications to those who are misleading the general public

Most People who wish to earn a living by online marketing methods think they can do it for free...and in the end they will find it just doesn't work that way...no-one gets rich for free!!!

Spent 6 months floundering around with Free to Join Programs (and truly you get peanuts for your efforts..if you ever get paid at all) One does need to make an Investment to a successful proven marketing program and treat it as a business...think like you just took your life savings and made a huge franchise commitment. Imagine you opted in for some MLM marketing structure that takes money and countless people to still earn that lifestyle income and freedom you desperately seek.
There is an old

Who can we trust on the internet? There is no law to control these Internet Swindlers, something must be done to curb such malpractices.

My reasons. 1.)I have have been cheated &swindled 2)Internet gurus get very rich taking money out of your pocket 3) most programs are pure bullshit.

coz too many scam site offering easy money but suddenly comes scam, hmm hope GOD give them a mercy :)

Very good Topic, and responses! For me the bottom line is contact, and follow up! Most people come online, and are afraid to contact people! If you are afraid to talk to people you have to have a very good marketing system, which in turn will cost you money, and time. You will have to educate yourself, and the layman does not realize this! People come online thinking they can just throw a ad out there, and get sign ups! (lol)! For me I want to know who I am doing business with, and that th

@Greg, that's why I like 5 Dollar Money Bomb so much. They teach you how to market, in simple terms anyone can follow. They don't just say, "advertise on You Tube," they show you how to make a You Tube video step by step, and how to get it out there. They show you how to build a network and use the power of leverage. Then you can practice with their referral program!

There is another aspect in investing in an online business to make it a success, and that is perseverance and dedication. If you don't keep up with your ethical promotional behaviors and have patience in the business, then your business will surely fail. Many people are now afraid of venturing to spending money in new opportunities because they lack the patience of doing some research about business opportunities and that is why they are being scam most of the time.

Hey everyone, thought I would chime in here with my .02 worth on this topic. I think most people start off with a good intention of building an online business. Few however are willing to actually do what it takes to be successful because they find out it actually requires WORK. The internet has given people the impression (and lots of scammers too) that you can just jump online, join an opportunity and the cash will start flowing in.

Unfortunately that's a fantasy. Making money online require

@Paul everyone needs to do their own testing, but my experience is that Internet Advertising is way overrated today. The returns are dismal for the amount of exposure you buy and seldom worth it. Maybe for the big gurus,but for common little people like us, I would bet this single comment on APSense produces more return that a $20 ad somewhere and it was free. Now just think of what could happen if you have many other people making comments that benefit both of you! Interesting concept, don't yo

Because its the latest hot topic online. And its highly rated and available online. But you still have to invest time or money in advertising.Im sure some have done it. I would try and because that is a challenge.. :)
