Can You Make Money From a Web Business

Can you make money on the internet? Is the internet really making people rich? Well, like most stories, it isn’t all true but there is a basis of truth to it. You probably aren’t going to be a millionaire tomorrow, but I can show you how to start a web business with virtually no money, that will provide you with a nice stream of extra income. How much money can you make? With very little effort you won’t have to worry about your car payment or rent/mortgage anymore. With a little creativity and effort you will be able to quit your job.

How is this possible? The internet has opened the door for individuals to compete in the advertising industry. I know, I was a skeptic too. I tried the scams in the past, “Stuff envelopes for $1000 a week guaranteed”, the chain letters, the email beta tests, and the list goes on. None of them ever worked. But hey, it didn’t cost anything but a little time and pride, right? After losing enough pride and suffering enough disappointment, I gave up on my pipe dream. I accepted the fact that I was going to have to go to work every day, to a job I hated, until I was too old to care. That all changed when I started working in the customer service department for an internet retailer.

I Watched A Man Make $200,000 From Home

Did you read that headline? Let me repeat, I watched a man make $200,000 with nothing more than a computer in his living room. My employer was paying this guy $200,000 to sit at home and play on his computer! I couldn’t even get them to give me a raise and they were paying this guy $200,000 and he didn’t even have to come to work! In fact he was making them so much money that they built him his own internet store. What was his big secret? How could he get paid not to come to work? No, he was not blackmailing them.

With a little research I found out that he had joined our affiliate program. He was getting a commission on every sale from people that he referred to our stores. He had a website, not even a very nice website, that referred people to our stores and my employer was giving him money for every sale that he generated. He had discovered the secret that the internet had opened the door for individual people to compete with the big guys in the advertising industry. He was making money doing what we all do everyday. You don’t believe me? How many times have you eaten at a restaurant and liked it so much that you told a couple of you friends they had to go eat there. Has someone ever complimented you on a shirt you were wearing so you told them where you bought it? Ever get ripped off at a store and told everyone that they shouldn’t shop there? His big secret was that he was getting paid to tell people where he shops online. It turns out that it isn’t hard to get companies to pay you for this.

Do You Want to Just Survive or Thrive (Part 2)

“Fighting to pay the bills is hardly worth it fight for a better life!”

What do we really want?

This question is one that has pretty much founded the self help industry and will sustain it for eternity. The problem is that it is often asked without the commitment of action with accountability FIRST!!!

It’s the reason why people go to seminars and read books; coming away to say that it was all “very interesting”. Well I’m sorry but “interesting” won’t bring you the lifestyle you aspire to. You need capacity!

I knew that with all the fighting that myself and my family had done of trying to save money was an experience that formed the basis of my new and exciting fight for my freedom!

What I discovered was that there wasn’t any difference at all between the people who were making money and the people who were saving money. They are all just people when it comes to the crunch.

By exploring even further, I also found out that the people making the money are always the ones that win the fight. They are the ones that win the game every time. This realization brought home the reality that there was never going to be a chance to win against the “money makers”.

Why?

Because they set the rules and they have a cause worth fighting for. As a result of them winning the game, they get what they want for their family and friends.

And they don’t give in - ever!

Being that we had achieved great success on the “saving money train”, my wife and I had shown that if times ever got tough in a financial sense, we would be OK, as we had the capacity to do whatever it takes to protect our special family time together.

For me, saving money became boring.

So my new fight that was about what I wanted for my family would be geared towards making money, not saving it! This fight was clearly a battle that was worth the effort because the big outcome would be an abundance of family living.

And that’s what is important to me. All the material nonsense that comes with having too much money would no doubt invade our space but at least there would be some concrete real life perspective that would ensure we never got carried away.

To me this is a sustainable way to live as material stuff can always be taken away, but the stuff in your heart can’t be stolen.
