I am actually running a successful home business right now. I do it part time, so I bring in about $1000 a month, but I am lanning on moving full time within 6 months. I feel I am successful at it and it is simple because there is already a system.

I'm a freelance writer for Associated Content and I make pretty good cash there by spending only a few hours a week writing. It certainly helps. The more you write, the more money you can make. If you can hammer out a good 5 articles a day or more, than it's likely you can make a few hundred a week or maybe even more. It just depends on how well you can write and how fast you can work.

I have been working with SFI for about 3 weeks now. I am doing a great job of recruiting new affiliates, about 3 a day. I thought I was doing a great job until I mentioned it to someone who has been doing it for a while. They said getting that many affiliates a day is great and that is one of the hardest obsticals to overcome but it will still be about 2 years before my business becomes profitable. That is the company average. Its no wonder so many people start these businesses and then drop out so quickly. I spend about 6-8 hours a day working on SFI.
