Have you thought of starting your own business but you don't know where to begin because you are busy with your work? I was browsing online and saw this link: http://www.myplick.com/view/2WEmIQCsFf7/How-to-Start-A-Business-In-Your-Spare-Time What do you think of his advice? Interesting isn't it? I would like to quote this "Many online businesses only require 5 to 10 hours a week. Additionally, internet businesses require very little start-up capital." I would like to start my own online business soon. I am just glad to find this link and the rest of his entries, I can use his advice to start my own business.

Based on my readings at a start, it requires time but after that you can work less and just expect money coming in. Internet business needs marketing and appropriate strategies also. He is probably earning and doesn't want to declare it.

I think the site is good to learn & browse it more for additional knowledge. If I have spare time I would try it to go beyond business.There is to much to learn but have little time.

Very interesting indeed. I do believe that one of the great things to do today is doing business online. We know that more and more people search the internet for products, ideas and many more. It is such a trend that even the old folks are already doing. Well, if you do have the knowledge to do so as well as the time to do it, then for sure there is a great chance of success. Good luck to you!

I have been considering an online business for a while but my concern is with scams which are all over the net. I don’t have a great deal of money and to risk losing it to a scam is more than I could cope with! I will read the article that you kindly pointed out to us and see if I can learn more. I do need to make some money to assist our family’s income so this may be one way to do it.

thank you for adding this link. even though i have been running my online business for a while now, i can always learn more ways to improve the one i already have. what kind of business are you thinking about running? what ever it is, i hope it brings you success and financial freedom. don't let work tire you out from having your own dreams. that is one of the very many plots of the work force. i actually heard from an employer once that you don't keep people down, they will leave you. you have to own at least 90% of their time in order to keep what he called, "forced loyalty". he said you HAVE to do it as an employer under. I will never forget it. the sad thing is that his employees did not hear it. i wonder if it would make a difference? i am not saying not to secure your job until you business gets off, just don't let anyone else that you are making rich while you are slaving kill your dreams.

I have time problem. I don't have enough money to learn more about how to build online business. And I don't have enough time to build my own business. I have main job (offline job). I make extra money online by investing some of my money in some investment program online. So, I do not need to learn and do extra work for my extra income and I have extra time for my family. The money works for me.
