Fools Rush In


People who work from home are an easy prey to scams and frauds. When looking for opportunities, always be careful. Here are few notes to help you decipher whether the opportunity is legitimate or not:

- If it’s too good to be true, it probably is. Earn so much for so little effort? That’s not possible, even in cyber space.
- If there is a promise of instant cash, be especially wary.
- If the word “legitimate” is being used in the ad, it’s probably not.
- If it’s asking for initial cash-out, especially if it’s a huge amount, beware. Don’t just shell out money just because you have it.
- If you cannot make sense of the product being offered for an online or home-based business after reading an entire article or website, it’s most probably just bogus.

Better be extra careful when dealing online. Read up and investigate. Don’t rush through your venture. Any endeavor requires time and effort to be successful.

  3. I never expected this blog to be this informative and entertaining at the same time. :)

    It's like reading an online magazine for Work from home Moms but entries doesn't limit it in that niche.

    From the color, lay-out, images down to the length of the entries are so lite and balance. Even an "OfficeHusband" like me would want to be a "WorkingMom" after reading a couple of entries... :)
