They only work for people who have money and time to burn and the skills to make things happen. I don't believe in luck, and I don't believe that you can get by with just a great idea. It takes a lot more work than anyone thinks, and for things to be successful they must start with great ideas, great planning, and lots of money. You can make do without money, but it will make your journey to Bill Gates-dom even harder than it had to be.
Many get rich quick schemes are so difficult to avoid because they're often scams built to sucker you in with a promise of some crazy monthly income! Well, some people are good at things like this, and unintentionally being a con artist is something we really don't tend to think of ourselves. We're not all graceful actresses that can put on a show with everything we do, and often times while we have some strengths we may not be able to beat the all-around acceptably performing competitor.
Another way that these schemes reel us in is by stating that we can work from the convenience of our own home and make our own hours. That's execu-speak for "We only pay you commission" and what they aren't telling you is that in order to make the crazy amount of income that they promise you, you need to work 24 hours a day, every day, without fail.
It's one thing entirely if you see things like Avon or whatever as something fun to do here and there to maybe add fifteen dollars to your wallet. It is a whole 'nother thing to expect your entire paycheck to come from these things.
Be smart, and get a real job. Don't get your hopes up with stupid pyramid schemes and scams that never pan out. That's how you get job security, not by trying these things at home with no resources except hope.
