Can you really get rich quick or do most people who say you can want to scam you? Read on for my answer to that question...
To see an example of a get rich quick scheme, go to www.12monthinternetmillionaire.com and read the headline. This is not someone's affiliate link, it's the natural site. I don't want any affiliates making money should someone be gullible enough to buy into that get rich quick scheme by clicking this link.
It says "The Amazing Money-Making Secret of a 28-year-old Convicted Felon Who Earns More Money per Year than the CEOs of FedEx... eBay... Amazon.com... Time Warner... Apple Computer... McDonalds... Microsoft... Nike... Yahoo... Ford Motor Company... General Motors... and Goodyear COMBINED!"
Now what questions does this headline leave you? Does "28-year-old Convicted Felon" scare you? Does it make you think twice about this guy's honesty? If this guy is really a felon, than you have every right to be skeptical because you don't know what crime(s) he may have committed. Chances are, he could have written a $100,000+ check that bounced with only $10,000 in his bank account. Does that sound like an honest person to you? Will he really deliver on his promises?
Look, if you want to get rich, and I know you do, otherwise you wouldn't be reading this article. you just can't trust anybody and everybody to give you money, it just doesn't work that way. Some people promise to give you $1,000/day for a lifetime if you give them $1000 now and you don't have to do any work for it.
Well, I've got news for you, it takes time and energy to be able to make that much money, and compared to what the big name internet marketers (like Joel Comm) make with each product launch, $1000 a day is chump change to them. But there is a catch, and that is that they don't do a product launch every day and that the big million dollar payoffs you hear about are only possible with a product launch that has taken a lot of planning and a lot of buzz being built at least a month prior to the product launch, longer would be better, but any longer than 2-3 months would be too long because the buzz will die down by then.
The long and the short of it is that you have to do some work in order to make any money and if anyone tells you otherwise, they're wrong. They are just out for your money, and when someone tells you that they are a convicted felon and they tell you they've done it, how can you tell they're being honest? You can't, there is no way to tell if someone claims to be a convicted felon has gotten the money they claim to have gotten legally or ethically for that matter. There isn't even a way to tell if they even have the money to claim to have gotten using the system they want you to buy into.
One last word of advice I want to leave you with is that if you come across any get rich quick scheme, do not send the get rich quick schemer any money, doesn't matter how much they promise, if there is no tangible product, not even quality information that actually tells you how to get rich doing _______, and the blank is filled with something unrealistic, just pass over the opportunity because you'll never get rich trying to implement something that just won't work. However, if the opportunity is something you understand, your passionate about, and most importantly, is realistic (i.e. no hype, especially in the earnings potential).
To your success,
Ben
PS
Do you really want to fight against the biggest companies on the internet trying to make more money than them, or would you rather make money by helping your current competitors succeed with an agreement that they help you succeed in promoting them and being paid for it as agreed (usually a percentage of the products you sell, emphasis on products you sell, not just a system with no product attached to it other than the business opportunity).
