There’s Gold In Them Thar Hills!!!!

So the whole “make a fortune on the Internet” thing is reminiscent of the California Gold Rush where ordinary normal folk became deluded enough to think that they could make their fortune if they simply showed up with a pan and with a claim. As with most get rich schemes neither the Gold Rush, nor the Internet’s riches are easily collected.

This article outlines where the biggest money making folks are on the Internet (you’ll note I am not there, and none of my link buddies either, I guess we are just poor replicas). The thing to note is that all of these sites seem to offer more than the blatherings of a bored, lazy person who thinks they are an expert in a specific field (present company included). Interesting to see that some folks really do make money, but to me it’s like winning the Lottery or getting bitten by a Shark: everyone knows a “friend of a friend” who somehow had it happen to them ;-) .

Yeh, I’m green with envy, you caught me, allow me to admit my sins. I still keep thinking Big Cajun Porno on Demand may one day pick up, but the people I’d have to deal with, would just make me sick! Keep smiling, it’s a long weekend, after all. –C8j
