Agreed. However, it takes a lot more than a computer and internet connection.
If it were that easy, everyone would be doing it
and successful. All you have to do is cruise GFY for a day or three and you'll realize just how 'easy' it really is (insert sarcasm) as an affiliate. See endless whining threads on a daily basis.
That being said, add in that most people do not have the dedication and discipline to be their own boss first of all. Followed by the fact that many do not know how to "sell" or convert a sale. Lastly, many have unrealistic expectations of working online. Starting with the word "work". For whatever reason, there are plenty who believe you just sit in your underwear and watch money roll in all day. Throw up some pictures of nude skeezers, or a free this or that, and the money just rolls in. You spend 99% of your time doing nothing more than counting your money.
As we've seen over the years, many last 1-6 months before getting shocked into reality.
