I’m sure you’ve seen as many work at home ads as I have. There are tons of them. Some are interesting, while others are blatantly false. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it most likely is.
Anyone who has spent time looking through ads for a work at job or home business has probably been taken at least once. It usually happens because we respond emotionally instead of logically. We need money, so we take desperate action.
Even after we learn to sort through the ads and ignore the most obvious scams, we can still get duped. The problem is that some ads don’t use such hype, so they sound legitimate. They can be difficult to distinguish.
I’m usually drawn to those that don’t make outrageous claims of great wealth, but I’ve found that in some cases, it’s just a new tactic. Apparently, the get rich quick ads don’t work as well as they once did and they need a new method to lure people.
And, why should those ads work? Does anybody really believe that he or she is going to instantly start making $10,000 per month while sleeping? Please. I find those kinds of ads the most offensive, for a few reasons.
First, they insult our intelligence. Second, they prey on the desperation of people who need money. Third, those “become wealthy without lifting a finger” ads are completely insulting to most people, because most of us want to work. We don’t expect to get rich while lying on the sofa. We just want a legitimate opportunity and fair pay.
If you are still looking for ways to make money from home, take heart. There are legitimate work at home opportunities out there. Just remember, legitimate work at home opportunities don’t generally have words like “get rich” or “earn while you sleep” in them, and they certainly don’t ask you to pay them for the privilege of working of for them.
