I am a stay at home dad who desperately needs an income. I've been looking on the internet for something I can do from home but they always end up being scams. I've been looking into affiliate,blogging,advertising & even payper click programs. I just want to provide for my FAMILY & not get ripped off. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

Answer
There is no quick fix I am afraid. I have 2 website and very slow earning, and a lot of boring and tedious site optimizing. (good for a trickle income though) Don't get hooked on forex. You need a lot of money to put in the pot in the first place. You are probably best thinking about selling really. I.e. look into finding a good wholesale company. It would take good research though to make sure that you are selling something that people are raving about or want. Last Christmas - I was short of cash and bought wholesale boxer shorts from china. I sold them on ebay and made a quick and substantial profit.

Hope you find something suitable soon. I am searching again. I will let you know if I come across a winner.

Regards,

Ann.

Is there a program out there for making legit money online?

I really need to supplement my income to make my life better and or not have to worry about the next meal or where, or when it's coming. I want something completely legitimate, No BS! I just want to know if anyone is making legit money online, or is all of it a giant hoax. I don't want to have to go on social services if I don't have to.

Answer
Yes there are people making money online. It depends on how much you have to start with. The easiest way is getting paid for doing surveys. You pretty much get paid within 2 weeks of starting and it doesn't cost you a cent to get started. A friend of mine does this and earns around $50 - $100 a week.
To find out more do a google search for Paid surveys

The next thing is affiliate marketing. If there is something you are passionate about or don't the time or money to spend on your own website then this is the next best thing. You basically resell already made products or services on the web. The downside is that it can take a while until you start seeing the money come in and it can cost a little bit to get started.
A good place to start is www.clickbank.com

Another idea is buying and reselling goods on eBay. First find a product that is in relative demand and purchase it in bulk. Then, resell it online. I have a few friends that do this and make quite a nice dollar from it. The downside is you need some capital to get started.

Another idea is creating your own website and put ads on it. Allot of people do make money this way. Find out what you are passionate about and design a site around it. The downside is you will need to either develop it on your own or pay some one to do it for you.

The last idea I know is Stock and Forex trading. I know of people that make a living doing this online. With Forex you don't need much money to start, possibly around $1000 and can make some nice returns. The downside is that it is very risky if you don't know what you are doing. You will need to study and practice online for at least 6 months or until you are confident before risking any money. You can also lose it all if you make the wrong choices. Its all about the education.
