Have you ever wasted your time on a project that you thought would make money?

i have made cards and gift tags and tried to sell them, i have sold some, but not that many, but no, i wont scrap doing them because this is something i enjoy doing. (that is half the battle, right?)

Well, I would not say that I ever really expected a pay out, but I would sure love to be able to make a living doing my pottery. I have put a great deal of time, effort and money into improving my skills. But it is something I do for the love of it and the art expression. I don't believe you can really put a value on that.

I tried to sell Home and Garden Party for over 2 years and put a lot of time and money into it and I rarely made anything off of it. I had a couple of good shows but not enough. Finally, I gave up on it although I enjoyed it a great deal. I am trying to open a tanning salon now and I hope that it works.

Well, you know I have a website and blog and such. At first, they didn't turn out to be well visited. But we keep fine-tuning until it's getting there and at least it could generate enough income to sustain itself. I don't remember a lot other stuff I tried, but I remember building other things which I lost interest after awhile and gave up. Of course those didn't really generate nice money.

About a year ago I tried to start a business selling health discounts which were similar to insurance but not actual insurance. Anyway I paid about fifty dollars to start this and did not make a dime. The only good thing about it was that I bought this service for myself and have used it. I was preturbed that I did so bad at this business,but live and learn. Never again will I pay a dime to start a business.

no i dint experience any such....

I have spent the last 9 months trying to make my website profitable. I wanted to make some cash on the internet about that time ago and started searching online. Came across a package called the ultimate wealth package (strangely not available anymore,lol) and unfortunately i was sucked in. It was cheap, around $50 and had so many ebooks and multiple income streams so I thought it sounded great. Well a week after buying this product i asked for my money back, started to search internet and felt that i had been scammed. I got the money back but had already paid out for a year with a webhost ($120). And of course once you have convinced yourself that you can earn with this type of thing i decided to keep it just 4 a year and see whether i could earn a decent amount of money. Now i really wish i hadn't bothered. Or at least started looking for free earning Opps. in the first place. It's not the money i have spent that bothers me. It's the time i spent on it. I'd hate to have a guess at how many hours i have wasted trying to boost it's popularity. I tell myself now that i have found ways to earn, and i have (free ways) and that i wouldn't be earning anything if i hadn't started this thing but it's still pretty embarrassing just to be sucked in by one of these get rich schemes and then ultimately give up, which i have done. So my advice for any1 looking to earn online is to stick with the free methods as there are many good legitimate ways out there. And although i wouldn't say this Ultimate Wealth Package was a scam (see still dumb), I would love to hear the percentage of people who have turned it into a worth while income. I'm guessing it's less than 1%. Any1 out there who bought this particular product and did well with it?
