Too Good To Be True
Listen to your instincts. If a business opportunity sounds to good to be true, it probably is. Phrases like "Make thousands of dollars a week." or "Earn money while you sleep." are good indications that the opportunity is actually a scam or a pyramid scheme.
What about Online Homebased Business
The economic downturn has left many of us scrambling for ideas to pad our pockets. However, the real challenge is finding legitimate work at home. Here are two tips you can use to help you weed through the junk and protect yourself as much as possible should you choose to find an online homebased business.
Never "invest" more than you can. Whether it is the $20 a month savings club business or the $999 one-time software resale business, if you cannot afford to lose it, you cannot afford to take the risk.
Always go for an "opportunity" that will give you something in return right away. Often this may simply be a ready-made website or free hosting. It is usually not free web traffic, which is what you will need to have a chance at profitting from any online business.
