Why am I so mad I could throw my computer right out of my upstairs window?
Well, I'll tell you. But first I want to tell you who I am.
My name is Cathy Smith and I work at Lake Superior State University in Sault Ste. Marie Michigan. In the past two years the Governer of our state has cut the state funding for higher education by a whopping 20%. This has resulted in layoffs and job eliminations at our university.
We used to have a four person office but now thanks to university DOWNSIZING we only have a two person office.
I am one of the "lucky" ones who survived the cuts and still have a job. I not only have my own job but the jobs of the two people in our office who were eliminated. So now I have three FULL-TIME jobs. See how lucky I am?
I am so lucky to come home very night too exhausted to spend quality time with family and friends, too exhausted to devote any time to my hobbies Wholesale Jerseys , too exhausted to do any of the things I love to do. My health is suffering from stress and overwork. I have developed migraines and IBS. I can't sleep at night.
Are you a victim of "downsizing"? Do you hate your job? Are you sick of coming home too tired to enjoy your life?
Then listen up!
I decided to do something about it. I got on the internet and started looking for ways to start my own home business. I figured if I'm going to kill myself working, it might as well be for myself!
I typed in home business and a whopping 40,000 Cheap Football Jerseys ,000+ webpages popped up. Wow! I thought I must really be on to something.
"Make $10,000 While You Sleep"! (or some other jazzy title)

I figured that I'm at least as smart as a baboon, so I ordered! And I ordered, and I ordered Cheap Jerseys , and I ordered.
Now I have an entire collection of "Golden Carrots" taking up hard drive space on my computer!!
Am I rich? NO! Am I still stuck in my exhausting job? YES! Am I $4000 poorer? YES!!
Now do you know WHY I want to throw my computer out the window??
So what is the "Myth of Internet Marketing"??
The Internet is NOT a Magic Carpet that can help you market some program, product, ebook or widget and guarantee overnight riches.
Internet Marketing is still "MARKETING". HELLO!!

Have I given up on my dream to have my own home business?
Absolutely Not! I'm working at it everyday but I'm doing it the right way. The way I should have done it in the first place.
