Any of you seen this infomercial lately? It seems promising. They give you a web site with and things to sell and you make money off of it. Is this stupid to get into? Would this be like a Amway type thing, pyramid scheme? Let me know, I need to make money, and fast. Thanks!

So go out and get a real job. And stop staying up late watching tv! It rots the brain you know.


>edit As far as I know, it is like a pyramid/amway type thing. You have to sell their products in order to do it. edit<

you'll get something along these lines:

Dear Stupid Sucker,

Thank you for sending us money. If you want to make money too, market an equally worthless product to even stupider suckers. They will send you money, much like you sent us money. However you are probably the bottom rung on the stupid chain, so no money for you.

Thanks,

wejustrippedyour@ssoff.com

I have problems with getting a job.

1) I live in Honolulu, Hawaii. Our economic state is not that well off right now. It isn't that easy to get a job as it would be in the mainland.

2) I watch my son from 9AM-1PM everyday Mon-Fri. Saturday, and Sundays, I have off.

3) I drop off my girlfriend to school @ around 4:30PM everyday. I wait for her here at my fathers house from 4:30 - 9:45ish. Mon-Fri.

Ok guys, how do I get a job in between those three things? People here are picky, If I were to put a picky schedule like that, I wouldn't get hired. I would have to put down like 9am-12am everyday availablity. Then I would get the job.

Then comes next September when I go back to school (I dropped out this semester). My grandfather pays for my college, but doesnt know I dropped out. He said he wants to see my &quot;report card&quot; after this semester is over. What the hell am I gonna show him? He said If I don't got good grades, I'm paying for college on my own. It isn't that much, its like 560.00 a semester here (community college)

Those of you with good advice, hook me up. How about letting me work for your via online or something? Anyone? I really need a job.

that's really tough man... how about finding something near your g/f's school, or even at the school from 4:30 - 9:45ish. Mon-Fri.? Schools usually have extra stuff that needs being done and they have flexible budgets...

Remember, I'm not in school right now. I dropped out, plus, I think today was the last day of school for colleges here. Not quite sure. Think it was today, either today or next week. I guess something near her school would cut it. I really need the cash, I'm strapped for cash right now. Damn, thanks!

If it was that easy to make a lot of money off of it, don't you think everyone would be doing it?

Yeah, I guess. Well, good thing I came here and asked first, huh? Or I would be $69.00 more in debt.

Between this thread and this one I think you should try to start acting more repsonsibly, you have a son after all.

Anyway, the military might be a good idea. They can put you through school and you can get housing for your family.
