There are several well known and well used phrases regarding money. Most of these have been around since the first bank notes were printed and we stopped using the barter system. While many still hold water today, our generation and those that follow may find that the tide is turning on this particular issue.
For example, "money doesn't grow on tree's". If I had a pound for every time I've heard that, I would be much richer than I am now. However the truth is that in some money making systems money can grow on tree's. The problem for average Joe is in deciding which is honest and profitable and which won't give you a dime. Many referral systems will use some sort of tree structure with different payouts depending on which branch of your tree a new user finds. While these can be ongoing, the chances are in my opinion that anyone who attempts to profit using referral systems will be in for a rough ride. Of course if you are the owner of a popular web page with thousands of visitors you are likely to refer many, but often your proceeds will come from your referrals referrals. Can you guarantee the actions of people you don't know? No certainly not, you can't even second guess people you do know half the time, its human nature. http://automatedstocktrading.blogspot.com/2007/10/can-you-really-make-money-doing-nothing.html ____________________________________________________________________________________ Fussy?
