Scams to watch out for

Some very frightening facts face those who are retired or will retire shortly.

According to financial experts like the Stanford Center on Longevity (SCL).

Workers approaching retirement must either work beyond age 65, reduce their standard of living, or do some combination of the two.

And as these unfortunate facts face us, the older generation and not only us but also people among us who faces financial woes.

We tend to reach out for anything to help alleviate this problem. And this is the time when heartless and ruthless individuals easily scam us.

I want to look at some of these scams and, hopefully, give you a heads-up in spotting the red flag in these offers.

Common Myths about Affiliate Marketing

Common Myths about Affiliate Marketing
Common Myths about Affiliate Marketing

Is Affiliating Marketing a myth?

A myth is an exaggerated or idealized conception of a person or thing. Some have asked about affiliate marketing whether the concept of making money through Affiliate marketing is a myth.

No, it is not a myth because there is so much proof of people making money, and these amounts are not exaggerated because the evidence is shown.

I have not made much money yet, but it takes time right now, my income is low, and I have not been in affiliating marketing for a year yet.

But I understand why some people may go away with the idea that making a sustainable monthly income from affiliate marketing is a myth.

People come into affiliate marketing after hearing that people are making a vast amount of money, so they try and have not achieved what they thought they should; they give up and say affiliating marketing is a myth.

And some others may buy a program or a course in affiliate marketing, and they may get the information but no instruction or support on how to apply the knowledge.

Wealthy Affiliate

Wealthy Affiliate is a platform that not only supplies the tools and information, but you are given step-by-step instruction, and there is assistance available 24/7; you can become a member of this platform for FREE.

Online business is like any other business; it takes time, work, and much effort; it is not a cakewalk, but some people are used to the 9-5 work mentality in that when you are finished with your allotted time, you get paid.

But as online business owners, we have to free our minds from that way of thinking and not give up when success at meeting your set goals may be taking longer than you thought it should, or you made mistakes in something on your website, frustrated. It was Thomas A. Edison who said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

There are other myths associated with affiliate marketing, and we will be looking at a few of them to dispel them.

Myth #1 STARTING AN AFFILIATE MARKETING COST TOO MUCH

Quite a few companies offer free membership, but as far as I know, there is only one whose free membership never expires. And that is Wealthy Affiliate.

Wealthy Affiliate is the platform that I am a part of, and it is a platform designed for all affiliate marketers.

Whether you are a beginner, have little experience, or are an expert with years of experience.

As a free member at Wealthy Affiliate, you get to start your business, and you will be able to put everything in place for your business to have a stable footing.

Here is a  screen shot of the first 5. free lessons, a free membership never expires.

  • First five free lessns

On becoming a member of Wealthy Affiliate, you will not be asked for any information but your name and email address, and no commitments.

Myth #2 The affiliate marketing business is oversaturated

Not so at all, there are close to 600 MILLION products/services to choose from, and you can easily promote them on your website. No inventory. No shipping. No support is required. This will be taught to you at Wealthy Affiliates, so have no fear; there will always be room for you.

Myth#3 You need relevant customers before you get started.

People are your business; without them, you will have no one to advertise to. At Wealthy Affiliate, you will be taught how to utilize social media and other current techniques to bring relevant customers to your site.

We currently have a membership of over 1.4 million, and they are from 193 countries. Wealthy Affiliate has an A+ rating with BBB.

There are two membership options: the free membership and the premium membership; with the premium membership, there are a lot more tools and information available I have listed them below.

Can you build a successful business with a free membership? I have heard of some doing so, but I would recommend the premium membership for someone with little or no experience,.

Having been caught in so many scams, I joined the free membership, and after a couple of months, I upgraded to premium.

Conclusion

Affiliating marketing is not a myth. The only myth is you can get rich quickly; to be successful in Affiliate, you will have to work to establish your business. After it is established, then you will not have to work so hard.

We all must remember that success takes time, effort, hard work, and persistence.

How to Earn Extra Income After Retirement —-Financial Independence

Retirement Concerns

Preparing for this post, I saw  Prudential’s 2016 retirement study stating that 54% of Americans nearing retirement age have no idea how much money they will need for those 20  or 30 years after retirement.

The study also states that 54% of them nearing retirement age have only $150.000 retirement saved; this is nowhere near enough cash to live on for 20 or even 30 years.
