Making money schemes or scams?

I have seen so many adds...you can be the next millionaire just buy my product and start making money immediately....are any of these actually for real or are they all just scams?

I have always dreamed of staying at home and making money...not on a printing press but legitimately. I want to be the next millionaire but I don't want to be taken advantage of. Call me a skeptic if you will but I just don't think that all of these are for real. I have seen play video games from home and make real money selling your online accounts, or surveys to make money and get free items....well one of the other guys on this site posted that that is one of the ways to get people to take the surveys...well no thanks to the item is what this gent says I would rather have the money.

Anyhow my rant about this is almost over I just wish that there was a way to try out a program and if I make money great then you can take it out of my first paycheck from your site...I mean if your system is soooo great then why not let me take it for a test run and see if it works then if I do indeed get paid like you say then you can take a percentage out of my check...wouldn't that net a person more money in the long run...heck get a whole bunch of people earning money while you get a minimal percentage which they must agree upon before getting started.

Contracts are contracts these days I suppose and if someone agrees to it they should be contractually obligated to pay and if your system works so well then you better believe that you will make money they will make money and everyone will be happy

if anyone has a system like this I will gladly test it out

rant over

Lol, that's a good one!

Personally, I think, the internet is definitely a gold mine, there's money to be made online, that I'm sure, but how much, how soon, now that is a different question...

I guess, those who claim that you're gonna be the next millionaire, well, not all are fakes, but you gotta know where to find the real ones, and that, could only be done after tonnes of research, reading and spotting fake and false reviews of a certain person or his product,

normally, what i would do is the moment i see someone offering his so called turnkey product, i'd google it up, i'd look for reviews, i'd read one after another and another and another, you'd be surprised to read the same thing sometimes lol, coz these masters also provide true reviews and supply them to his or her affiliates to use

well, the keyword is still research, i could spend hours or even days googling up that someone or his product before i actually decide to buy, and i think this should be a standard procedure for others as well, before they buy something in this nature,

they ARE true gurus out there my friend, you just gotta find it, usually the hard way as in after much failures and such lol

Ok so maybe I ranted too much and I too know the value of research which is why I have done loads of it but it all comes down to clicking that I WILL PAY button on the website and then it is still honestly a crap shoot in my opinion.

You may find gold you may not but I must agree with you whole heartedly with the researching I am a firm believer in it and thank your for your reply Natasha85 it was really helpful.

I was wondering if you had come across any good data entry sites...I thought I found one but I feel that is going to be more my speed anyway because I know I can type and I know that I fast and efficient at it.

anyhow thanks for your help if you have found anything out there that you would be willing to share that would be grand. if I find anything I will definitely share it with you.

thanks again

Forums where you bid for work - pretty good start.One thing I have learnt,and thankfully not the hard way,is that I will never pay someone to make ME work.They can keep their millions but my 10$ will not add to it.

most (should i say almost all) get rich sceam on the net are scam, though making money on the net its a reality, but it not easy, u have to spend hours researching on the way u can do that. best way i found is doing freelance work, and running webistes with affiliates ads.

It is true that you can earn money online. But it won't be easy, you have to earn it in a hard way. There are a lot of home based jobs you may want to try. Try going to www.getafreelancer.com.

These sites like getafreelancer.com and guru.com and elance.com and freelance.com

there are lots of lance jobs or free lance jobs out there but are there any of worth that don't have you pay something for their service so once again someone is getting my money.

Which is great and all if I can make money but yeah there has to be a way to get money online where you don't have to feel like your ripping off your customer and still providing them with a great and wonderful product or products!!

That is just my 2 cents on the subject though.

Thanks for your replies guys and gals I appreciate it.

Well have you heard about the make money fast email , i just recently got it and later found out that isone of the biggest scams to hit the emails ."Make money fast" is a title of an electronically forwarded chain letter which became so infamous that the term is now used to describe all sorts of chain letters forwarded over the Internet, by e-mail spam or Usenet newsgroups. In anti-spammer slang, the name is often abbreviated "MMF".
