Hello! Friends I have just retired three months back and do not receive any pension because I was working in a private firm. Now days I am facing certain financial crisis which are really harassing me mentally. Is there any online business which I can do by sitting at home? Please help me.

Hi Derek,

Yes.

That's what this entire forum is about. It would be best if you spent a few days reading through the threads. That will more than answer your question.

When you're done, feel free to ask questions.

Welcome Derek and I second what Newbie Shield advised you to do. There is such a variety of ways represented throughout this forum, that people are using to create income from home and I consider this one of the most informative forums online - happy researching...

Welcome to the forum Derek! This is a great place to get information on home based businesses. I work solely from home and do very well. Check out everyone's signatures until you find something that interests you. We're here to help each other, if you have any questions, just ask.

Hi Derek,
There are many good online businesses out there. The key is to find one with a proven track record and be prepared to work your tail off, dont expect instant success, and most of all, dont quit what you started to go join the "flavor of the day."

Good providence

Hi Derek and welcome. You're definately in the right place to start. This is a great forum and the people here are both bright AND helpful. My first bit of advice would be to do your homework before starting anything new on the internet. It can take dozens, if not hundreds of hours of research to find something that's right for you. Being new, I would also advise you find something that offers training and support. This NEVER hurts. Other than that you'll find loads of advice and commentary here that should get you well on your way. Good luck!

Welcome!!!

This is a great place to start!!!!

The above advice is all good, and I would like to add that you do something you are passionate about. If you find an online business that makes you excited, do that, because it won't feel like a chore, it will feel like a hobby! But do your research!

Go with a company with a proven track record and history. If they have a lonnnng history, they won't take your cash (and your hard work) and run.

Good luck with your search! Cheers!

Hi Derek...

I am fairly new to this forum...It is a sound forum to be a part of if you are looking for quaility posts and information from its members .

I enjoy doing business from home despite having a full-time career going at this time. However, I do look forward though to the day where my home-based business keeps me home...

All the best,

Tommy

Just query Google for the phrase above and you'll smell something fishy. Exact word to word post has been made on several forums with different usernames.

I think it is definitely possible to make a Living from Internet Marketing. It just takes Time, Patience and Hard Work. And a thrist to learn more and more from those who are already making it !!

A good start is right here

This is quite possibly the strangest thing i've seen in sometime. I would sayhe's fishing or link spamming for ranking, but as he's not responded to any of the post and does not have any links on a single one of them.
On one hand you want to believe the sincerity, but on the other hand...why the multiple name changes, if you were teh same person why not just make one fake name and stick to it?

The most troubling thing is how we didn't make the list

Yes, probably could be some sort of Link Spamming. They have software out there that does this. You can blast a Post to over something like a 1,000 or more Forums in just seconds.

I think this has really pissed alot of Forum Admin. off and hurts the reputaion of Internet Marketing !!

OK, either I am really naive, or I still have a lot to learn. I thought this guy was sincere (and actually could identify) and would have never suspected something fishy with this post.
