Get Rich Quick Commercials in Overdrive on TV Lately

Has anyone noticed that with un-employment going up and people getting more desperate for a paycheck, the late night infomercial “get rich quick” selling is in overdrive?

You know the ones ….. The commercials where they tell you they made $5000 in one day ….. Please! What they don’t tell you is they grossed $5000 in one day. They never give you net numbers. In other words, they don’t tell you that the thing they sold for $5000 cost them $4900 a month ago, and they had to work their butts off to offload the piece of junk. Mainly because there are 1000 other people online trying to sell the exact same widget.

You may be, by nature, a risk taker and may fall prey to these late night pirates. Please don’t fall victim to this nonsense. You should run, not walk, RUN away from ANYONE who offers you get rich quick schemes. None of them work. They are just vehicles for the product peddlers to get rich, $49.99 at a time. 10 minutes of research on any of them will prove my theory. Just Google the product they are selling and do 10 minutes of research.

There are better ways to make money online. The best way is to offer a unique product or service. Fill a niche in the marketplace that is not being filled. Figure out what you are good at. Better yet, combine two trades that most people can’t replicate and master them both as one.

Five years ago, I took my 12 years of technology experience and learned how to sell real estate. Now people pay me to help them use technology to sell their real estate. This is just an example. You can combine many trades and parlay them into a weekly paycheck.

Good luck, have fun, …. And don’t be a victim!
