You can simply believe or not believe whatever you want, it's really not any concern of mine.
Until you see it from the inside, it's beyond belief the amount of money that some information publishers are making right now. I'd guess the 'net is producing a lot more millionares then the stock market is right now.
I have a friend who sells a system teaching AUTO MECHANICS how to market themselves to their local communities. He sells his kit for $797 and then has a monthly membership site for $67. He brings in about $4million.
Another guy makes nearly $10million selling marketing systems to dentists. Yet another just did over $23milliion in 5 days with an "Internet Marketing" product.
Another lady I know of (thought I don't know her personally) makes over $8million a year selling a $17, 73 page long ebook on how to overcome anxiety.
Doubleyourdating.com gets you in the door with a very simple $19 ebook, the company makes about $30million per year.
All of these numbers are pretty spectacular...and they are NOTHING compared to what a well managed site in the financial markets can make. The guys in the top of the field make amounts that are just crazy.
This is my favorite subject to talk about simply because it just drives TraderZones nuts really

. Aside from that though, people who make the claim "if you could trade - you wouldn't sell information to traders" are just nuts. If you make $10million trading, I can pretty much gaurantee your working 70+ hours per week and very rarely get a vacation. The lifestyle people hope may come with it rarely does. On the other hand, I know of many people making seven figures selling products to traders and they work under 40 hours per week.
I can speak of my own situation. If you go back in the logs you can see where I was at just in Feb. of this year. I was in the hospital, very sick and nearly died. My insurance coverage had maxed out when I had cancer - and so I was up the creek without a paddle so to speak.
At first I was going to just start my trading site back up again - sell a newsletter, course etc. I figured it would make me a good high six to low seven figures, and I'd have been happy with that for sure, and it would have allowed me to build back a trading account. However I kind of felt like a douche bag telling people what to do financially when I was myself broke. From the last 90's till 05 I ran one of the more successful daytrading chatrooms, and so I know something about marketing..and so I basically just decided to focus on that. I built some sites for myself selling some cheap little products and made a nice chunk, and got a lot of bills paid off. Then I started to focus on launching products, selling high end $1000 + products, and turning the release of those products into an event, generating huge sales for the product owner.
I structure my fee's pretty much like a hedge fund...ie I get paid by performance...and it's been a very good year for me. I've gotten all of my debt's paid off, getting ready to buy a house again, have a great girlfriend and I'll make close to $1million this year.
I just reopened a trading account again about a month ago and am having more fun trading then I did in a long time.
Anyway, you can think what you like about selling shovels and axes and tents...but the only family from the California Gold Rush who's still around with a lot of money is that of the guy who made the blue jeans
Quote from chipmunk:
I simply do not beleive this!
How can that be possible? Even at $1,000 per month he woyld need: 200,000 subscribers.........LOL I think you have a few 00's extra

I know one guy with a trading service who made nearly $200million last year with it, not very many big time hedge fund managers even come close to making that.
