So, here are a couple of ways for you to start in business, generating passive income, and some of them can generate a profitable business.

It's all mater of desire. If you desire to generate money on internet, you will find more ways to do it.

NeoBux: The Innovation in PTC

Last time i just summarized the operation of PPC's; the company (reflected on the site) pays you some cents for clicking links and taking a look of the advertisement. The more advertisements you click, more money you earn, so simple.

Neobux is one of all the PPC (also known as PTC, that stands for Pay to Click) existing on the Internet. But be careful, most of the sites scam you, they don't pay you when they have to.

Neobux has good payment proofs, you can find some in NeoBux Forum.
Also:
Payment proof 1.
Payment proof 2.

As you see, NeoBux figures in the most trustworthy PTC sites, it means they really PAY when you reach the payment deadline, and if you have earned the minimum payment quantity, $2.

In NeoBux you earn money for clicking advertisements and taking a look of the web page for 30 seconds. After the time runs out, $0.01 will be credited to your account.

Then you can have referrals. What are those? A referral is an user who generates money for you, each of its advertisement click generates $0.01 to him and $0.005 to you. It's a kind of employee.

You can have three kinds of referrals:

• Direct Referral: when you persuade a friend of yours to participate in NeoBux (speaking directly to him) and he signs up in the system, he will do that thanks to you, so you earn 50% of the credit he generates.
• Rented Referral: you can rent a random NeoBux user for 30 days which will work as a direct referral.
• Bought Referral: paying a little bit more, you can have a random user to generate money for you forever. As if it was a Direct Referral, but buying it (like an employee)

Obviously the first week you won't generate much money, because you have a limited number of advertises per day, but when you collect enough money you can rent some referrals and the earnings will be multiplicated.

It's just a matter of time, like every investment, you have to 'sacrifice' something to have profit from it.

Will you try?

Think And Grow Rich - Chapter Two

Think and Grow Rich - Chapter Two (pdf). On this chapter, N. Hill explains deeply the power of desire in the achievement of our goals. "Desire, The Starting Point Of All Achievement" means that you have to mix the will for gaining something with the possibility of getting it. All the great inventors had a big desire to materialize their ideas, that's why they succeeded in their tasks. Edison, Marconi, Volta, the Wright brothers... All of them wanted so much to reach their dreams.

That is the second key point in business, dream. Don't be afraid to be a big dreamer, because the more you dream, the more you want to reach success. You need to meddle with your dreams, ideas, beliefs so they become part of you. "There is a difference between wishing for a thing and being ready to receive it. No one is ready for a thing until he or she believes it can be acquired." as the book says.

Also it insists on the fact that each crisis carries an opportunity after it. Bad things have to be balanced with good things, so no bad circumstance comes without a posterior reward. It's the basis of equilibrium, every system has its own methods to counteract the variations by setting up something of equal magnitude and opposite sense.

"Our only limitations are those we set up in our own minds.” That means we can make things happen if and only if we wish them to be done, if we act with passion and perseverance to achieve them.

The example given in the book of the last statement is the author's own son. He was born with no ears - he should be deaf mute - but with his parents' desire of teaching him how to hear and speak, adding hard effort and perseverance, the boy could hear and speak. At the end, the hearing skill was improved with a technological aid, so he supported the manufacturing company to create best ways to help deaf mutes. His parents' effort was worth.

The Big Idea Book

Do you think that there aren't new things to be developed in the world? If you do, you are wrong. The Big Idea Book was published after the initiative of the web site Idea a Day, which each day received an idea which could be developed and transformed into a profitable business, or just would help to change the world in a certain way.

500 of the best ideas in the web page were taken and compiled into this book, ranging from intelligent gadgets to absurde inventions.

It's a good way to motivate your creativity, thanks to people who shared their ideas with the rest of the world.

Pay To Click

Making money always seems hard. The idea of setting up a business from scratch does not gives a good inspiration to start in the money making world. But business involves not only physical trading, doing something and getting paid for it; you can earn some pounds by using Pay-to-Click systems.

And what are the PTC's?
It's simple: earn money by visiting web pages. Does it sounds hard? You just have to sign in, configure your payment account and start browsing! Monthly, your account balance will be credited to your payment location. Most of the PPC sites request the user to specify a PayPal account to credit the earnings. Then you can transfer the money from PayPal to your bank account, just paying a little fee for the transaction.

If you focus on working with PTC, first you need to check if the site has payment proof because the internet is full of fake sites, scamming users. Is better to start with well known sites as Neobux, You-Cubez.

Each service has different payment rates and dates. You can read more information on their own sites. And some of them offer a referral service: you can buy (forever), rent (30 days) or refer the page to a friend so he creates his account thanks to you. Each of those will generate money for each page they visit, 50% of the income that each click will generate to them. So the point is have more referrals and click daily so the activity becomes profitable.

Think And Grow Rich - Introduction

Think & Grow Rich - Introduction (pdf) Such an amazing book if you feel that you were not born for business, when everything goes bad or when you just don't achieve what you want... Through diverse anecdotes, the author gives you tips to get trough those eventualities, and how to find the answers in your own life, even in a single decision you have to make you can earn a valuable knowledge, applicable to life, to future decisions you will make, and to improve your business or start a new one.

In the introduction chapter, N. Hill explains that a defeat can not be the boundary of your will to achieve a goal. The will has to be the power to keep working for getting what you want.

Most of the times, a 'no' answer does not means a real 'NO', and we have to learn how to know that and how to overcome that apparent defeat. The author explains with a passage of a child asking for money, who faces an intelligent old man who first doesn't want to give 0.50$ to the child - under the sentence '50 cents for my mom' - but after the child insistence and innocence, the old man gave the girl what she was asking for. Also says that the old man sat in front of the window for 10 minutes, thinking...

The key point is the power of the will to achieve our goals, we own our destiny and we can make things happen.
