Can you really get rich quick on the Internet without doing a lick of work?<\/p>\n
That?s what SB, a subscriber, recently asked me.<\/p>\n
He writes:<\/p>\n
?Bob, what?s your take on the standard Internet guru shtick of the 4-hour work week??<\/p>\n
He?s referring, of course, to all those hyped up, high-price ?how to get rich quick on the Internet? programs promising you can make millions working an hour a week.<\/p>\n
What I told SB is this: it?s actually sort of true ? but with a big ?but.?<\/p>\n
You in fact CAN make a lot of money selling information products online with very little work from week to week.<\/p>\n
But that?s only after you?ve created all your products ? your Web sites ? and built your e-list. <\/p>\n
And to produce all that is a ton of work up front.<\/p>\n
Once it?s finished, you can indeed generate a steady stream of ?passive income? ? with a minimum of additional labor on your part — literally for life.<\/p>\n
Passive income is money you make without actually having to work for it.<\/p>\n
Listen: all my life I have made money with ?active income.?<\/p>\n
As a freelance copywriter, I made (and still make) a handsome living.<\/p>\n
But, I have to work for that money ? all the time.<\/p>\n
Dentists have a saying: ?If you?re not filling and drilling, you?re not billing.?<\/p>\n
Even in a highly paid profession like dentistry, there?s no passive income: you only make money when you work.<\/p>\n
So you are always trading time for money.<\/p>\n
With an Internet marketing business, once you have an e-list, products, and Web sites, you can begin earning a steady stream of passive income.<\/p>\n
It?s thrilling to watch orders coming in via e-mail as you sit at your computer ? doing not a lick of work!<\/p>\n
A few weeks ago, for example, I took my family to the beach for 5 days.<\/p>\n
Since I didn?t work at all during vacation, my copywriting income for the week was zero.<\/p>\n
But my online income was $6,103 ? because a good Internet marketing business runs almost automatically, whether you?re there or not.<\/p>\n
You can make more money ? and have an easier life ? when you generate passive income.<\/p>\n
And selling information products online is just about the best way I know ? aside from owning income-producing real estate ? of producing more than enough passive income to live on.<\/p>\n
When your passive income exceeds your spending, you have essentially escaped the rat race.<\/p>\n
By that I mean you no longer have to work, and you are free to spend your time as you wish.<\/p>\n
Can this really be done?<\/p>\n
I know I have done it, but I don’t expect readers of this blog to take MY word for it.<\/p>\n
So … what’s YOUR experience with Internet marketing and “get rich selling information on the Internet” courses and programs?<\/p>\n
Do these systems work? Can you actually make money with them? Have you in fact done so? Would you recommend them to others?<\/p>\n
Or have you spent a lot of money on “get rich on the Internet” products only to be disappointed? Did these program promoters sell you a load of BS? Do you think everyone selling “make money online” are all hypsters?<\/p>\n
Can you REALLY make a lot of money WITHOUT a lot of work? Or is it all a load of manure?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
