I got another one of those pesky e-mail newsletters telling me about a free blog post so amazing that it should cost money to access. I thought, “Oh really? I’ve got to read that.”

So I read it. What was it? A covert ad for another site that will teach you how to get rich on the Internet in 10 easy steps. Just download the same rehashed garbage, watch some teleseminars, and then you too can get rich on the Internet.

What a load of garbage! Here is some simple advice on how to get rich on the Internet. Every time you get to a page with a really great sales letter that wants you to spend 10 to 1000 dollars on a product and you just have to have it, please take that money and put it into your Internet only Orange Savings Account from IngDirect.

I just taught you the only real way you can get rich on the Internet.

Change your habits, change your life, and that will make you successful.

You don’t need another product to teach you to be rich. I am sure you have others that you have already tried. Are they making you rich? Why will this one be any different? I hope it is not because the sales letter is better. To get rich you need to think like someone that is rich. Is someone with lots of money going to waste their money? No. The truly rich save, invest, and build businesses that provide people true value in their lives. Think of the most successful people in the world. Do they sell products with cheesy sales letters and promises of getting rich quick? No! They produce products and services used by people and corporations around the world. They used their minds to create something, save, invest, and build a business of value. They didn’t make it big by selling false hopes.

Please, stop falling for the gimmicks. If you want to make money on the Internet, then open a savings account. If you want to get rich on the Internet, then provide true value to your customers. Don’t sell them information they already have.
