How do you know if an online business opportunity is legit?

Answer by  patti (29325)

If a "business opportunity" sounds "too good to be true," it probably isn't true. The primary benefit of these "secrets to riches" is to the principal of the enterprise that is collecting $39.99 to explain an online marketing network, which ultimately ALSO benefits the principal. If making millions online were that easy, we'd all be doing it.
