<BR><BR>Firstly, you need to understand that not everybody is right and when they are all telling you different things, how can they all be right..

<BR><BR> Are you making enough online to quit your day job?
<BR><BR>Now this is just a short list of questions, there are a lot more, but this should have your wheels turning.
