I am angry.

I am sick and tired of people promising you that if you will just download a book or buy into a program that you can work for just 15 minutes a day and get rich and quit your job.

That is just stupid!

I mean really stupid!

Look, you cannot just buy anything and start making a fulltime income in 15 minutes.

Sure, you might make your first sale in a day or two, or get your first traffic in a day or two, or get your first subscriber in your first day or two. I did all three, and you can too (maybe you already have).

But you cannot get rich online in 15 minutes a day.

I work 50-60 hours a week online. Most of the experts and gurus probably do too.

Now that is not to say that I don't have the freedom to work at the beach (I have) or work at the airport (I have) or work on vacation (I have) - but internet marketing is work.

Do not let anyone fool you.

There is no program out there that will make you rich fast. None. You have to work. And sure, if you learn how to do it, you can get to a fulltime income fast.

It has taken me 3 months, fulltime, to get to a fulltime income.

You may not have the freedom to work fulltime. You have a job. So work part time. But WORK. Treat this internet thing like a job and not like a hobby.

I am still angry, but at least now I have vented!
