Would you do this

[countrygirl12]

Yes I'd try. I'd love to have my own business I just don't have a clue what I'd do.

That's me.  I have been told that before.  Just start your own business.  What the FFFFFF and I suppose to do?

I would want to do something I could do totally on my own. I do NOT want employees.  And something else just pointed out to me is you have to pay the self employment taxes and all that so the deposits to SS you pay double.  Your part and the part your employer usually pays. ;(

They always say find something you are passionate about and turn it into a business.  Something you are good at.  Or, find a need and fill it.  For example, the my pillow guy.   Now there are all these people selling expensive sheets, etc.  You can also find stuff at garage sales, thrift stores and the like and sell it on ebay.  People do make a business out of that.  Or you can sell stuff you make on ebay.  I've seen ads for learning to dropship online.  People do make money working online.  You can tutor online, transcribe, be an editor.  I knew someone who took the call for all the ads you see online when it says call a 1 800 number they are getting paid to take the calls from home.

If I was unhappy with my work situation, I would definitely try to start more own business if it was realistic. I would do it part time first and get it going before I quit. Life is too short to stay in a job you hate.

Honestly, I do not think I have the patience to start my own business. I would just trudge through the job that I currently have until something better came along.

Originally I posted this in the wrong section.

If you were unhappy with your current working situation would you try to start your own business?

There is something that tons of people are doing online and claim to make a lot of money.  A family member by marriage claims to have made $20,000 last year doing this part time.  (Not surveys)  I have talked to someone who knows him a lot better than me and they said he is lying about how much he made.

I am being encouraged to try myself but I cannot see making almost $400 a week working part time online.

What do you think?  Would you try something that seems totally crazy to make money from home?

In most cases, you would join his downline and he would receive a commission. It becomes more about trying to recruit others than selling the product itself.

Nope.  I think it is too good to be true.

If you have to put some kind of down payment That's a big red light sign! Once I paid alot of money to get an online business selling, for sure popular products. They set everything up on my computer. I got nothing just fake demographics, statistics, market profile! I lost everything in that scam. In another scam I applied for selling my inventor Idea(s) to get a license as an inventor, i fork out a thousand bucks for this! Then there was a kit I bought for fast easy health product With sample packs. People liked the taking the samples but no one bought anything. My advice beware of the seller trying to sell you a tale. If it seems to good to be true, it probably is! I don't want to discourage you but just be careful & let us know the results.
