Money makes money. If you know how to make money out of money. But often you just lose what you have.

You're absolutely right! It often seems like making money online is harder than we're led to believe, and those who succeed often already have some financial backing, which helps them scale faster.
 
You just need sweat equity. Everything starts that way. Starting with money is a bad idea, you just burn it. First you need an MVP, which you can make by putting in the hours.

You only need money when you know it's working, so you can scale.
 
Everything in life is hard, making money online really is no different

Nahhhh
I think my problem with what you are saying is the word “hard”, making money online is not hard, it requires patience and grind. My pov is that everything at first requires you to put in the work to learn, people are making money from different sources, Reddit, Facebook YouTube which are all free, unless you have no internet which I doubt since you posted this

You can make an only fan account it’s free, and make money from it. Now will you have the persistence to keep working on your project when you’ll not see results in the next 2 weeks?

You can’t be working on something consistently for like 6 months and you tell me you gained nothing from it, it’s either you gain the skill or gain money there’s no way else I’m seeing this.

What I like about internet is the fact that it kind of put all of us to the same ground, of course someone with cash can buy courses or a mentor, but all the resources are online there are hacked courses everywhere YouTube is there, communities like this one are present all sharing knowledge

So, yes making money online is “hard” but it’s only the energy and time you need to start seeing some progress that is actually “hard”

That's just something you tell yourself so you can give up.

Most people just have beliefs with no real substance.

What "observation"?

Go deep with that, and really ask, what's the evidence that *most* people who make money online have had money already, and define "money already". Does it mean they were millionaires? Trust fund kids?

Alex Becker was cleaning toilets 12 years ago.

Hormozi had no money.

Everyone I know personally on blackhatworld was just a regular person who found the forum and persisted with making money.

I had no money. I was dirt poor. At my lowest I was on weekly unemployment benefits trying to find a job. Today I have multiple full time staff. I remember when one of my staff members got himself a brand new superbike. You know you've really made it, not when you get yourself your dream car, but when your staff can get their dream car by working for you. :-)

I personally can't think of anyone I know that started with money. Not in digital marketing. In real estate there's probably more. In finance there's probably more. In general entrepreneurship? Most tech startup founders don't come from money.

But really, what did you expect? Everything is hard from 0-1. Playing the guitar is hard, until you know how to play the guitar.

You're very likely putting in about 1% of the energy required to succeed in your own business. Most people massively underestimate the time and energy required to reach a place where it becomes effortless.

What skills have you got? Can you build funnels? Do email marketing? Cold email? Media buying? Cold calls?

Hello. I am a quite newbie here. Unemployed student, obviously had jobs irl from 9 to 5 but now I decided to give a shot to learn something new.
Obviously, I am not without experience at all, I did make some money online, with investments and without investments. I want to work for you for free if it is acceptable, I have time since I am graduating already.

I made money in cryptocurrency. Back in a day when I was a teen I got to Emirex Airdrop. They had amazing referral system, took advantage of it and earned some good money for a teen with a little to no investments.

The same thing about TrustWallet. I remember they were giving 20 TWT for a new client, the only requirments was to verify phone number. Good times.

Also tried myself at affiliate marketing. 18+ content, made ads. Was selling a cream. Managed to get one sell but invested into ads like x3. Dropped it

If you don't know what you want, don't have a dream , target , passion , patience AND !!!!! consistency .. even with 1 million $ in your bank account you will not make a single penny.

Yes, is true that money.. make more money (most of the times)

But think of it just like AI (ChatGPT for example).

ChatGPT currently have like billions of proffesional data.. yet if you don't know what you are looking for, what question to ask, how to ask it. It will give you the answer you most likely will get from 5 y/o.


Success or rollercoaster

Ok, try making money offline then . Offline it will be more hard for you. When you work online, you can work from the comfort of work. Daily you will save two hours of life which would have been spent in traffic.

It’s not that it’s necessarily “harder” it’s about as difficult or easy as it ever was. I think what you mean is that it’s more competitive and saturated than ever before. I recall a time when just having a pulse was enough to make money online. Whether it was e-commerce, selling courses, importing from China/dropshipping, blogs, domains you name it. YouTube and AI has given every 40 IQ NPC the ability to think they’re capable of doing “x” well.
 
I started by learning Haskell for over 12 months, but it was very challenging. Eventually, I switched to Python. Later, I delved into SEO by spending a lot of time on tools like Semrush, exploring Google resources, and reading several eBooks about online marketplaces and making money online.

It’s true—making money online is possible!
 
it all comes down to connections to be honest, if you have a good offer, just build a relationship with people first and only then sell
 
It's always hard to make money!
But I think it's better to try and develop your skills to get more for less work in the future
 
Difficult or easy then it depend on many factors , such as : skills , experience , v.v.v.v

True. On the other hand, everybody is online now - more buyers than ever.
 
Takes time to master a skill, but it is possible to earn money online
