Make Money Online

The Pyramid Scheme

Have you ever wondered about how you could make money online just by sitting in front of your computer? You've probably seen many ads online and in the real world where how you can earn heaps of money with very little effort and time.
Sounds too good to be true don’t it? Yes most of them are, and most of them are JUST SCAMS. Before we go further, I remember when I was younger I saw a laugh in sketch where one guy comes up to another and says give me ten bucks and I’ll show you how to make a lot of money, the guy gives him the ten buck and waits for his lesson. To his surprise the first guy then says go up to that guy over there (pointing him to a third person) tell him the same thing that I’ve told you and double the price, hence you can repeat the same technique over and over again earning a lot of money. But the catch is if you were the second person in this sketch would you have given your ten dollars? Probably not, and that’s basically what most of these scams will get you to do, but only after you have paid them the up front fee. Another name for this plan is the pyramid scheme. Where the first person who is on top keeps earning the most, all that needs to be done is the countless number of suckers on the bottom each have to find multiple sponsors for them to get paid, and eventually it will get to a stage where you cannot find any more suckers to join so the whole pyramid then collapses, but the winner is the person at the top who earns the most, and the losers are on the bottom of the pyramid who cannot find any more suckers to join up.

I have come across many of these offers some very cheap ones where I was promised to be able to recover my money immediately as soon as I join, the offer sounds familiar doesn’t it? I even made email enquiries to the offerer if I could get a credit, I promised to pay them double their asking fee as soon as I earned double the amount of what I paid them. The reply was a no. Although the fee was a meager amount (it does not need to be expensive because even if they charge you ten dollars to join they could soon become a millionaire because there are about six billion people in the world and if ten percent of them use the net and even if they can get point zero one percent of those ten percents think how much money they could make, and its all easy money).
Now ten dollars is not a lot of money and I would not grieve if it fell out of my pocket, but the thought of being scammed for even a dollar would make me upset, so no matter how cheap or how attractive the offer or no matter how much assurance of earnings I’m given with money back guarantees etc. I usually scroll down through the offer until I see the credit card logos, and at the first sign of the credit card logos I don’t hesitate for even a second before clicking on that red X on the top left of the active window. I strongly suggest you do the same.

So if you want to make money online you will have to come up with your own system, the same as those offers available now and see if you can convince some suckers to buy your idea (note there is no product to sell just an idea).

The Real Online Money Making

Yes you can make money online, but only as much as I do.
It will not cost you a cent to start, absolutely. How you say? It does not come with a single effort but a constant one and it will not replace your regular jobs wages, so don’t go putting in your resignation until your retirement.

The Method>

Is companies require research before production of a product to see if it will be popular and if it will profit them, so they hire research sites to survey people and get their thoughts on the product before manufacturing. That’s where you come in. The survey sites will pay you to do surveys for their clients (mind you they are meager amounts but some of them also run prize monthly draws to attract members). Sometimes they even mail you samples to try out to get your thoughts.
There are many such survey sites that pay you cash (cash as in any amount of money), some send you gift certificates by mail, some send out a checks, and some will pay into your pay pal account.
I have tested to see if there is anything for free or if any free money is to be made on the net, but so far after about three years I did manage to earn some money without spending anything, (remember my aim is to earn money without giving a single cent) and I did earn some but with the amount of time I put in it’s a negligible amount of a negligible amount. To put it this way, it no way gets any near to replacing my laboring job.

The Verdict

Is yes you can get a few pennies for your online efforts but its purely for fun, and don’t expect to get rich from it if you do come across some method please let me in on it, if you would like to participate and try it out for yourself there are a couple of links on the right side of this page, e.g. Emailcash and pure profile just to name a few.

Remote Controls

Because of the diversity of so many brands and models of devices, most universal remotes usually and always work your tv set in the basic way, that is change channels volume levels and power button. usually thats all you need. but with a dvd player vcr or a sat receiver and ESPECIALLY A HDD RECORDER where you need access to so many menu items, they are useless, and the price for a replacement from the manufacturer (which i have experienced before) may cost you about a third of the price of a brand new product. so the bottom line is other than your basic tv set remote, always back up your remotes for the other devices with a learning remote (the originals can break down within a year), they can cost from $20 - $200 and they all do the same job, and always go for the one with the most buttons.
