10 Good Ways to Make Money Online without Spending a Dollar

Everyone wants to build wealth and a substantial monthly cash flow. However, in real life it is much more a difficult task as there is a considerable initial investment required. This is why we work for others and try to make the ends meet for a whole lifetime.

Thanks to the Internet era, now anyone can start an online business and make money, create cash flow and build wealth in enough time, if they have a right idea and execute it very well.

Like any other business, an online business also tests your patience and teaches you lessons and puts you in a tough position. If you swim past the hurdles and initial tough phase, you would be laughing at ease. Here's few good ideas to make money that will help you if you are still wondering how you can make money on the internet.

You read the title right - to try out all these money making methods, you need not spend a dime.

Let me tell you how I came to understand the secret of making money online. On one fine day, I was travelling by the country-side and saw a group of big fat cows. I decided to stop and ask the farmer about his experiences on farming and particularly raising and managing those fat cows. I was hoping that I could draw few lessons from his farming business. I started asking few questions about the farmer and started listening to his stories. I am glad that I did.

The farmer said, he bought 10 calves of cow species named 'Holstein' (Holsteins are the world's highest milk producing cow species) on a bank loan. He raised the calves by feeding them like his babies. Days flew, months gone and just after few years - the calves matured as cows. They are no longer skinny, young calves, they had become big fat cows. Each healthy cow weighed on an average 1500 pounds and produced between 6,000 to 8,000 litres every year (that is 20-30 litres every single day for whole year). Now, after all those initial hard-working years, the farmer doesn't spend much time or money on taking care of the cows. The cows graze over the farm, drink water and roam around whole day and produces milk. The farmer has a herd of 30 cows as of now and enjoys his days spending most of his time with children. Cows eat whatever they like, drink when they are thirsty and produce milk for the farmer.

Raise cash cows and benefit from them later

It struck me like a bullet - this is a perfect analogy for us, the people who are trying to make money online. Yes, the big fat cash cow is the answer to our cash quest. When you start a money making venture online, it is just like a small, young calf. It needs all your attention, efforts and time for the initial growth period. Mind you, as the calf grows (your venture rises from the ground) you won't get even a penny for the first few months. But, we should not give up at this stage. We need to put all our hard work at it. As your calf grows into a healthy, big fat cow, then the money will start flowing in. In few weeks later, you need not work on nurturing the cow. The big fat cash cow will manage itself and you will continuously milk it for it's lifetime. How cool is that? Then what do you do? Either enjoy the fruits of your hard work, go and create another big, fat cash cow.
