Get Rich Scam Tips

If you are looking for a get rich quick, able to quit my job tomorrow, or earn my rent today, it's not going to happen.  I'll start by saying, working online takes as much, if not more, time than a normal in office or out of home position.  But, the convenience and the knowledge that you are basically your own boss is the luxury that you trade for it.  All of these endeavors that I am posting about are ones that I have tried.  I have been scammed by too many people to not want to warn the world about them.  And I will post warnings about any that i have tried that turned out to be fraudulent.

Big key is to not trust anyone asking you for money.  Now don't mistake this for upfront costs to set up a home office.  Think of these costs as no different than having to buy black pants for a new job uniform.  But here is the main point, anyone asking you for money could just take it out of your first check if they are a legitimate company.  If they just want money upfront?  RUN!  Second, if you have to spend money for an at home office and the opportunity turns out to be fraudulent, you didn't lose any money, you invested in home office equipment that you will already have prepared when you find a legitimate at home position.  I know that's not much of a consolation, but I will assure you, I've yet to find an at home position that just wants you to buy home office equipment just to make you suffer.  If there's nothing in it for them with you losing, than it's probably not a scam....

I just received a phone call today stating that I had signed up for this new venture that their employees are making 6 figures a year working 2-3 hours from home.  All I had to do was send them $300 to buy my franchise rights.  Yeah, right.

This is what I am talking about.  Truly successful homeworkers are literally that.  They work at home.  This is called telecommuting.  The basic perks of legitimate work at home jobs are:schedule flexibility (You can  make your own schedule in some cases, in home office positions you can at least take breaks when you like), your uniform is your pajamas (you don't have to get dressed at all if you don't want.  Casual Friday is everyday!), you are saving hundreds of dollars per month in gas (just don't forget to pay your insurance with your lessened driving time) and you don't have to answer directly in person to a boss (in some cases your boss is YOU)

If you keep this in mind, even if you are working completely for yourself; whether it be blogging, or a home business venture, or an online store, no matter what it is, the truly successful (who can completely replace their income) are those that treat their telecommuting as a full-time job, not an opportunity to slack off.  Telecommuting takes integrity and self-motivation.  You have to be able to hold yourself accountable when no one else is around to.  And expect that no matter what the position, if it doesn't involve a structured company (such as telemarketing) where you are answering to a supervisor and have to make quotas, then make sure that you have what it takes to dedicate the time you would as if you were leaving your home everyday to work a normal 9-5, even if your 9-5 is noon-8pm, take a break and go party for a few hours.  Make sure you hold yourself to it if you intend to be successful.

Welcome to the Part Time Enigma

I've spent an exorbitant amount of time online searching and searching for part time work I could do from home or with minimal time away from home.  If you have spent any time, and hopefully not any money, than you know there are a lot of scams out there, a lot of people who prey on the needy, and a lot of people who are just full of it.

Finding legitimate work online is like that movie "He's Just Not That Into You."  If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.  Can someone become an instant millionaire in no time online?  Sure.  Is it likely to happen to you?  No.  It's a one in a million chance.  If you want false hope, then you came to the wrong place.  If you want honesty, then here it is.

We've all heard stories of people who started a multimillion dollar company out of their mother's basement.  But the fact is they usually had either a great irreplaceable idea, invention, or talent that there is a need for in the world.  Not all of us have that.  So here's where to start.  Can you make a decent living working from home online?  Yes.  Will it be enough to support your family?  Eh, it could be.  Are you going to become rich from it.  No.

Weekly I'll post an article on a part time opportunity that I've found and researched and let you know my opinion and experience with them. My purpose?  To help people avoid getting conned out of their already tight budgeted money, and maybe help some people save some precious time that should be being spent with their loved ones or whatever your situation is that keeps you home.

Please feel free to email me, leave comments, ask questions.  If there is ever a venture on here that you don't see, please feel free to write to me.  I've tried many many many ventures, and am happy to put it on my to-write list.

Do I think anyone will read this?  I don't know.  But I have a voice, and I'm here to help.
