I am self employed from my own home. I work at home, and I love it. One thing that I see more of these days are the scams that promise you riches for very little effort. I am begging you not to fall for it. These scams are appealing to your desperation and greed, but they are not going to deliver on what they promise. They are there to steal your money, and that is how they 'got rich quick'.
I work from home, yes. This means I actually WORK. I work very hard, and sometimes well over fourty hours a week. I make decent money no that I have gotten the swing of it, but it took me a while to build the income. There are VERY legitimate means to generate income at home using the web as a tool, but there are just as many unscrupulous scammers out there with only the goal of lining their own pockets.
Educate yourselves. If you are wanting to work from home that is your best plan. Educate yourself so that you can spot the scams. My rule of thumb is that if it sounds too good to be true it almost always is. "I got rich working one hour a day!" MMmhmmm...that is why your site says 'results not typical, and not an indication of realistic revenues'
I have a very, very dear friend who fell for one of these scams. She spent nearly her last $100 dollars, and all she got for it was far more stress than she had. She is now facing eviction because she put all her effort into working the 'plan' that they gave her. She believed in them, and she is paying for it. I have done my best to help her. I have paid to keep her utilities on, and I have subcontracted work out to her. I can't bail her all the way out, though. God knows I wish I could. I do not want anyone on this site to end up in her shoes. PLEASE. Educate yourselves before you buy in to anything that promises you things that seem too good to be true. Don't let the next scammed party be you.
Heck, I thought about begging here for donations to help her come up with the rest of the money she needs for rent. Its not much. I've helped her raise all but $500 of it. I just don't have the means to support my children and bail her out. I feel horrible for this. I am even angrier at those who scammed her, but there is no legal recourse. It was right there in the fine print that 'these results are atypical and not a realistic presentation of what you can expect to make'. Of course, the site was written to make those results seem quite typical, but alas - always read the fine print.
