There are some huge scams going on for the unemployed right now. I got about 6 "interviews". They promise you about $30 to $40 for a data-entry job or clerk job or payroll, something that is a "dream come true job", but

The VA was good to him, but I applied for food stamps and some cash assistance a few months before my grandfather passed away. He took social security at 62 so he wasn't bringing in much more than $1,000 a month. They denied everything

It's selling it at the one-time price that may have long-term consequences. So it sounds great in theory and gives investors a chance to feel like they own it, but subscriptions are better in the fact that they are continued support fo

While I love the idea for simple software services, it doesn't work to support the actual lifetime of the software, though it can work to an extent. Adobe would be a good example of offering a one-time payment. You get a lifetime for t
