I just "created" $50,000 without touching a thing or doing anything except picking up the telephone. 
In our business, I've also sold many text links for $6000 a pop cash only. Nothing was "produced, made, created or worked for". I just put up a text link on the main page of a tgp and walked away.
Not saying that everybody can do either of those two things. I was just answering woj with some examples of how it can be done under the right circumstances. |
In that example, useful "work/service" is performed, you found a buyer willing to pay $1500... it's not like the guy selling oranges just "moved" $50k to you, you performed a service of selling his oranges, you got compensated $50k for doing the work, taking on the risk, etc...
