Making a living from home has been something I've wanted to do for a very long time. The thing about the internet, is that everything seems like a scam. Everything seems to good to be true. To make real money on the internet, one must start his own online business. Do you have any suggestions for me?

Welcome to MyLot eric_v_b! If you're wanting to start your own online business from scratch, there's a bunch of things that you'll want to do first. First off, write down all your skills and hobbies. Then, try to think of a business that you can do from that skillset. Then, figure out how you can make that business work online. You'll also have to figure out how much money you have to invest in your business. You need to realize that it generally takes a few years for any business to be really profitable, so see if that would be ok with how things are in your life right now. If you're looking for other things that you can do online to earn money that you don't have to think of from scratch and that's free to do, check out the site in my profile.

I know, you really have to watch out for those scams! Whenever I see that something seems to good to be true, I usually just back off and forget about it. Thanks for the heads up!
