Do scams target unemployed?
The major concern about business opportunities is YOU!
The OFT advised anyone approached by a home working scheme to walk away if asked for any money in advance.
Before signing up, you should also do a web search on the company, speak to current workers and find out as much information on the scheme as possible.
Is the fact you are unemployed just by chance or did your company only kick out the goons?
If you are silly then you will need to know a quarter of all adults have been approached at some point by home working scammers, the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) and that is only the start of the problem.
A major concern is that as all companies shed goons they can no longer subsidise, the franchise or business opportunity market becomes saturated with idiots looking to buy a job.
They convince someone to take thier money in exchange for some kind of licence and act as though they still had a job (doing nothing).
You might say so what?
The answer is they will blame the franchisee next door, franchisor, industry, market-place, government, support and 101 other things.... Then ask for all monies to be returned and the only thing that did not work was them!
The franchisee or independent distributors inactivity can even land a bonafide business with a bad name.
Personally I really enjoy taking on things that people say won't work and making money at them.
This blog will point you in the direction of various business ideas that will work and some that might be crticised for being tough markets.
What I will not do is post daft ideas to make an extra few hundred a month as they are not worth leaving the house for.
Look out for the GET RICH image on this blog and then read how to make some REAL money now and I will feature some people expanding through these unusual times
GET RICH is very little to do with a load of cash and more to do with good income and great lifestyle.
