  Hi Dave,
  I did reply because I was interested.  I saw a message that said "earn 
money fast," $50 an hour up to $65,000 per year.  I was interested in how 
someone could earn this kind of money with little or no effort as you said in 
your message.
  I didn't mean to pick on your math, sorry!
  But in the home based word processing and resume writing business my wife 
and I operate, we use numbers to judge how the business is going, how well is 
the marketing is pulling for us, etc.  By the way, my day job involves sales 
and marketing for an industrial distribution company.  I sell pumps, motors, 
power take offs and a whole bunch of stuff where gear ratios, horsepower, 
cubic inches, and a lot of other numbers determine the success or failure of 
a system.  
  So if I zeroed in on your math being out of line with your statement of 
little or no effort required, it was because I have to resolve numbers that 
do not add up.  It's my technical training, my sales training, and my 
experience as a home business operator that causes me to do so.
  Since you posted your message in the Home Office discussion area of 
Fidonet, I thought you had time to discuss your home based business.  I've 
been hanging around this echo for about 18 months now.  Kind of a hobby.  
Maybe if you dropped the recruiting pitch, we could talk about logistics of 
moving product, price points, service philosophy, long term goals, marketing 
plans, etc.
  But if you have a business to maintain, I understand.
  Have a good day.

  P.S. - When you post a message with a subject line of "HOME BUSINES$$$$$," 
many people will not stop to read it because the dollar signs ($$$$$) just 
scream "Sales Pitch!"  I thought you might be interested in that. 
  Be seeing ya!  - FR
