It was an A-list thing that I got caught up in when I first started out because that's what everyone was teaching. I heard it everywhere I went... "The money is in the list" "The money is in the list" "The money is in the list" like a bloody brainwashing online session that everyone seemed to believe was the only way to make money online. Well, it was and still is a pile of horseshit... except horseshit is a lot cleaner. For the few who started their lists from day one, they're making a small fortune off the backs of noobs who haven't seen what is staring them in the face. Then the noobs start their own lists and wonder why they can't sell anything. By the time they get it, they've been scammed by these leeches and go away with a bad taste in their mouth about the whole IM thing. Shame there weren't more like Griz around back then, but I have a feeling that his popularity is on its way through the roof right now and people are starting to catch on that you don't need a bloody list of cash cows to earn some cash online. The days of the A-lister are numbered as more and more of us are standing against them and their scamming ways and spreading the word that 99% of ebooks about how to make money online are total crap! The info is freely available to anyone who looks hard enough. Ok, I'll get down off my soap box now... Yeah, me too, Lis. It was an A-list thing that I got caught up in when I first started out because that’s what everyone was teaching. I heard it everywhere I went…

“The money is in the list”
“The money is in the list”
“The money is in the list”

Seriously though the whole list building crap really turned me off internet marketing a year ago - it was like so yuck - trust me with your email address and then I will send all this crap to you yuck! It was one of thing that sent me back to the a "real world" job. Well I'm back, real world was over-rated and I definitely won't be buying a list this time either!
