It looks like President Obama is going to get his stimulus package through the House of Representatives and the Senate. His main point is he wants to get money fast and help us save or create over 4 million jobs in the next two years.
If you have recently lost your job I'm sure you're in favor of anything that will create a new one for you. It is never a good idea to count on government to bail you out if you are in a financial pinch however. A better plan is to be proactive and work at getting money fast on your own. Thankfully the Internet is a good place to do that.
You may live in an area where there is a depressed economy going on around you. Certainly there are parts of the United States that are worse off than others. This is true in the worldwide economy as well.
One thing having an Internet business allows you to do however is capitalize on sales to people that does have money regardless of where they live. Creating an online income that is not dependent on your own local economy is smart. It is also not as hard as it sounds. There are literally thousands of people making money all over the world who have nothing more than average intelligence and above average drive and ambition.
If you would describe yourself this way, you may be able to get money fast by starting an Internet business of your own. This makes more sense than waiting on President Obama to stimulate the economy.
