My Friends And Their Internet Business Ideas

I have two friends who are always looking for ways to make extra money.  Their wives love to tell me that they are doing another "get rich quick" scheme again, and how I need to talk to my friends.  Well the other day one of them dropped by and mentions that he had some internet business ideas and wanted to share them with me. 

Now me being the good friend that I am, I don’t discourage him at all.  I listen, because, hey, I’m a good friend.  So I’m listening to him talk about the various ways that he could make additional income with these different internet business ideas.  He’s giving me option after option and idea after idea, and to be honest, most of them were pretty good.  Oh sure he had some far fetched ones and even what might be considered a pyramid scam.  Yeah, I had to do some reining him in a little.  But for the most part he had come up with some pretty solid ideas.

And the thing was he wasn’t looking to make an absorbent amount of money.  Well, let me rephrase that, he wasn’t looking to make a ridiculous amount of money with most of his ideas.  With the pyramid thing that we trashed, he was looking to "get rich quick", just like his wife said he always did.  That was a mess.  But the other business ideas were simple and effective.  He thought up ways to make sure that his businesses would be well advertized.  He’d done some homework on the best internet businesses to utilize that wouldn’t require a lot of maintenance on his part.  He even found a couple that only required him to do an initial set up and then it basically would run itself.  It would run 24 hours a day, seven days a week and all he had to do was periodically check it.

I was truly amazed at all the ideas that he had come up with.  And that the majority of them were sound, solid business ideas that could be done on the internet.  I even told him, I’d be interested in doing one or two of them with him.  You should’ve seen his face.  He was so excited and I have to admit so was I.  He told me he couldn’t wait to get home and tell his wife how impressed I was about his internet business ideas and that I was even going to join up with him.  I laughed and told him to go with my blessing.  His wife called me a few weeks later to thank me for listening to him and to let me know that she had just gone shopping with his first check from his business.  She’s pretty pleased with him too.  Check out our recommended internet business ideas here.
