...there are some things about this whole IM thing that strike me as strange.

For instance, I am sure that a lot of people are making good money selling Wealthy Affiliate memberships. And, to tell the truth, I hope to do that some day too. But for now I am relatively new, and I have this thought that keeps going around in my head that goes something like this--

If the way to make money on the internet is to sell stuff that tells people how to make money on the internet, than is there really a business here?

Now before you brand me a subversive, be aware that I do believe there is a business here, and I do believe that selling products that  teach how to make money on line is a legitimate way to earn a living. 

It's just that before I go on to sell things like WA, or OWM, or 4DMMB or even my own product for making $ on the web, I need to know that I can sell stuff that has nothing to do with that. I need some sales from "Magic of Making Up," or "Rocket Spanish," or "Woodworkin4Home" and the like to prove that for me, there is a real business here.

Somehow telling people how to make dough on the web just doesn't work for me, if I can't make it by selling these other type of products. So for the moment, I am in the world of selling CB products that have nothing to do with making money on line, because until I prove that that works for me, I can't bring myself to tell other people they should join WA as great as I believe it to be, or to buy OWM and whatnot.

Maybe I'm stupid, but that's the way it is.
