Life of a Typical Making Money Infomercial Junkie

It all starts late at night. Whether it's due to insomnia or just plain old boredom, you find yourself flipping the channel and the figure $12,000 flashes across the screen in big numbers. You stop and listen as the person on screen describes how he was able to make that much money a month selling real estate notes... or selling on eBay... or taking part in some secret scheme that you have to call the phone number on the television screen to even find out what it is.

Just seeing those numbers gets you excited and you watch the rest of the program (and the one that comes afterwards). You start dreaming of the kinds of dollar amounts -- $5,000, $10,000, $20,000 - in your hands or bank account. And you're anxious to do something and practically itching to reach over to the phone and call that number.

Congratulations (or not)... you've now become hooked and are a making money infomercial junkie. You spend the next several weeks staying up in anticipation of catching every making money infomercial you can, and use them for inspiration and motivation. Sometimes you'll have so many ideas swimming in your head from seeing all the business opportunity programs - Dave Espino's eBay program, Carlton Sheet's No Money Down, Russ Dalbey's Winning In the Cash Flow Business, SMC - you don't know where to start!

Maybe you even go ahead and ordered a program or two to try it out... and then failed to make money due to a dishonest program or a lack of action on your part. In the meantime, you run out of new making money infomercials to watch, get bored, get disenchanted, maybe even research the programs online (which you should have done before you bought the program anyway) and found the possible real truth behind the matter on sites like Ripoff Report, and swear off your late night infomercial watching habits.
