Welcome to the Total Idiot's Guide to Internet Success!
Let's begin:
Q: How long will it take me to get insanely rich?
A: Depends on you. Probably two weeks. Some people take as long as a month.
Q: Does it take hard work or long hours to get insanely rich?
A: No. This is the internet.
Q: Can just anybody get insanely rich?
A: Yes. This is the internet.
Q: How do I proceed?
A: As you're surfing around the net you'll see banners and links that say
things like "Make Four*** Million Dollars in Ninety Days, Click Here to See
How!" Simply click the link to get started.
Q: It won't really take ninety days though, will it?
A: Don't be silly. They just say that so you'll be pleasantly surprised and
so it doesn't sound like hype.
Q: Okay, I've found one that says "Retire to Your Own Caribbean Isle in One
Month!" Is that good?
A: Perfect.
Q: What does MLM mean?
A: Nobody really knows. Morons Lose Money has been snidely suggested by the
little-brains.
Q: I signed up and now I sell low phone rates. They say it's the easiest
thing to sell because everyone uses a phone. And since it's MLM, by the time
my third level is operating I'll be making $345,915.45 per week.
A: Conservatively.
Q: They say the first step is to get my mother into the program. Why is my
sponsor happy that Mom has Alzheimers?
A: Your sponsor is a shrewd business person. People with any sort of memory
disorder make the best targ . . . uh, clients. You can switch your mother's
long distance carrier for her, and then start calling the other members of
her support group.
Q: That sounds a little fishy.
A: The ends justify the means. You are offering people substantial savings
on long distance. It's for their own good.
Q: How else can I get new business?
A: Spam. Spam. Spam.
Q: I thought spam was bad.
A: No, spam is good. Anyone who says it's bad is just jealous because his
brain is too small.
Q: But won't I lose my web host and ISP?
A: In the get-rich-quick business, it's important to cultivate a zen-like
non-attachment to service providers.
Q: What else can I do to promote my new business?
A: Here's a list of suggestions:
--Sign up with a free website provider and fill your site with zany colors
and flashy banners.
--Join every free banner exchange.
--Get your own free-for-all links page.
--Join every opt-in email list with the word Money, Rich or Lackwit in the
title.
--Buy software that submits your site URL to the 15,000 most important
search engines.
--Buy software that submits your ad to the 50,000 most-read free classified
sites.
--Buy software that submits your link to the 100,000 most popular
free-for-all link pages.
--Hire a bulk emailer.
--Sponsor a golf tournament.
Q: Okay, I've done all that and I'm still not rich. I haven't even driven my
hitcounter to its knees yet. What am I doing wrong?
A: It's possible that you're not very bright. Consult one of your friends
who has retired on her internet earnings.
Q: What if I don't have any friends who have retired on their internet
earnings?
A: Then contact someone on the internet who has retired on his internet
earnings.
Q: What if I've never heard of anyone retiring from his internet earnings?
A: Well, then maybe you can be the first.
Q: You're pulling my leg, right?
A: Oops! Sorry, I thought FAQ stood for Facetiously Answered Questions!
Never mind.
