Beware of Outlandish Promises


Have you seen flash web pages that promise you that you can make something like $12,000 your first week?


Or make $30,000 a month every month?


Or even . . . Unlimited Monthly Income!


Pick whatever dollar value and time frame you want here. It may be theoretically possible, it may be mathematically possible, (that’s how the ads avoid getting into trouble with truth-in-advertising laws) but not at all realistic.


It is also theoretically possible for every child born in the United States to grow up to be President, but the likely-hood of that happening for any given kid is minuscule.


The same line of logic applies to these wild promises of vast income. They attempt to sucker in those most vulnerable of desperate people who need to work from home for health or family reasons - or have just lost their job and have no idea where to turn next.


Lotteries use that t00 - "What if . . . . . . "


Gotcha.


Don't be a victim. Find something solid, that you are interested in and capable of doing. Find something that fits your personality type, temperament, abilities and desires.


If you are not in the habit of praying, now would be a good time to start. Ask the one living God to help you choose, and then listen for that still quiet voice as he answers your prayer.


Working from home is a great idea. Find a legitimate way to make it work for you.
