Lose Money Today

So I was chatting online the other day with a guy who billed himself as someone who knows how to make money online. And after some back and forth, I told him to send me an article about making money online and that I would post it (with my comments of course). So, here it is:

HOW I DIDN’T MAKE MONEY ONLINE…

Not making money online is the ultimate in self-fulfilment. I know it
to be so because I’ve lived it. And I continue to live it. Every
blessed damn day.

Here’s how I did it.

1) I copied other websites, word-for-word, template-for-template;
particularly John Chow, Problogger and ShoeMoney. If they made it, so
could I.

2) Once my site was up, I dabbed on my best perfume and waited for the
traffic to come. “You’ll see”, I told my imaginary friend.

I didn’t lift a finger. Not even a pinkie. I left no comments on other
people’s sites, didn’t link to them and I sure as hell didn’t submit my
site to search engines.

Nope. I just sat there. And meditated. Meditation is the key, you see. It’s the future.

3) My therapist told me, “Believe you’ll have overnight success and
it’ll happen. There’s an over-worked under-paid genie in a bottle, just
waiting to make your dreams come true.”

4) I updated my site as infrequently as possible. “That should get my visitors talking”, I chuckled. “All 5 million of them.”

5) I’ve spent the past 6 centuries reading about how other people make
money online. Reading how other people make money online is more
important than maintaining my site. But I’m not worried though. My site
is self-sufficient. It’s read a lot of self-help books and knows how to
take care of itself.

And that’s it. Easy. Follow the above, and I guarantee you’ll find
yourself in the same wonderfully exquisite position in the money-making
world.

Good luck, be brave and may the Google be with you.
