| Thinking about starting a home based business?
If so, you might want to look up with the site we just partnered with. I know a lot of people on RS are making a lot of money with network marketing and stuff like that, so they might want to have a look.
Basically, if you are a student or working a crappy job, and are interested in earning some extra money from home (depending on how much time you put in, this could be between $100 and $5000 a month) there are many companies out there looking for people to promote their stuff. The problem is finding the right match.
By going to this site and filling out a survey, you will receive info on home businesses in your area that are appropriate for you (they have plenty of different areas of interest). This costs you NOTHING and you will not be put on a spam list or anything like that. Only participate if you're interested in doing something like this, and have a business-oriented mind.

If you go through the "startup" process where you fill in the questionnaire, it specifically asks you if you are willing to "put down money because every new business needs startup money". And then it asks you how much you are willing to put down...

They basically start up a website for you. You sell amazon stuff and vacations thru this website. You get like 10% of the sale I think. It has to be from traffic from your website though that they set up for you. You also get like $35 if you can find a soul who has not yet signed up to eBay.
You also get paid if you refer someone to this "amazing opportunity".
I didn't want to listen to this whole thing but there is a fee to start and I didn't bother listening to this whole thing.
I'm bored as hell.

If you are a poor student, unemployed, and/or desperate on the other hand, you might start believing...

this reminds me of google cash back a few years ago when Chris Carpenter found a new way of making money with google Ads. I looked into it for a while.... but seems kind of BS about making fast cash and stuff. Too competitive nowadays with internet marketing

It is what it says it is. For people who are interested in setting up a network marketing business. Don't do it if you're not comfortable with it (just don't flame this thread if you're not interested).
The best way to find out would be to just fill out the form and see if you like what they have to say. If not, tell them to never contact you again, and they won't.

Thanks adbot. These motherfuckers have been calling me for weeks and I keep telling them to fuck off and stop calling.
They called 3 times today. It's been 3 weeks. They still call. Please Adbot, tell them to fuck off for me because they don't seem to listen to me.

I filled out the form, and I listened to the 9 minute spiel. I told the guy that I wanted to think about it and he starts in with the hard sell.
"What is there to think about? What's going to change tomorrow that you don't know today..."
I said to him that whether its something on the internet or new equipment for my main business, I do research. What good is it to buy it if I'm not going to put the effort in.
We ended up getting into a fight on the phone.
Then there were the 10 other calls from every other pyramid scheme operating in the lower mainland.
Their home based business opportunities actually impeded on my home based business.

I am all for ADBOT trying to help rs get revenue, and the banners are not bothersome. But when the ADs are scams and lies, then it should be an issue that RS should address. Advertise shit that people want or might be interested. Not fucking time shares and pyramid scams.
