OK, readers, it’s time for another review. This time, I’ll review Justin Blake’s “Caveman to Millionaire” program.

The headline on his sales copy is designed to suck in anyone wanting to make quick cash. It reads (in big, bold, red lettering):

… Become a Multi-Millionaire in 12 weeks on the Internet!

Now, who wouldn’t be interested in doing that?  But, is it possible? Did Justin Blake really become a multi-millionaire in 12 weeks?

Of course, there are the seemingly mandatory photocopies of his bank account showing “miscellaneous credits” or deposits of $610,848.27 in one month. Pretty impressive, isn’t it?  Or is it…???

Let’s dissect his sales copy, shall we?

First, there’s the claim that he became a multi-millionaire in just 12 weeks on the internet with no previous experience. One of the first things you’ll do if you sign up for Justin’s “Caveman” blueprint is download his .pdf “Caveman to Millionaire“.

In this 60+ page report (that normally sells for $97.95 but for a limited time, just because he’s such a nice guy and really wants you to succeed, you can buy it for only $49.95 – in fact, if you try to click away, you’ll get it for an amazing bargain of $1.00 for  2 weeks, after which time you’ll be billed the full amount) he states “After three years of trying and losing money, and having all of my friends and family tell me it would never work, I gave up.”

So, it sounds like Justin spent at least 156 weeks going into debt on the internet before becoming a multi-millionaire.

Now, I’m not saying the guy isn’t making money now. I’m sure he is. But, apparently it didn’t happen in just 12 weeks. Here’s an  important thing to keep in mind: Most overnight successes spend years becoming successful.

Anyway, let’s get back to his sales copy. What about that bank statement? We don’t know what his beginning balance or his ending balance is on this statement. But, let’s take a calculator to those current transactions.

Deposits          +$10,643.88

Credits          +$610,848.27

Checks           -$254,633.63

Payments          -$87,728.10

CheckCard         -$89,418.79

Debits           -$180,318.50

Investment Fund      +$123.75

In other words, $621,615.82 – 612,099.07 = $9,516.75.

Now, I will readily admit, I don’t know what the Check, Payments, CheckCard and Debits consist of. Maybe this is just spending money for Justin. But, the problem I see over and over again with these statement copies is this: OK, you made $610,84.27, but what did it cost you to make that?

Are some of those payments the advertising and commission fees in order to generate that amount? Now, $9,516.75 is still a nice profit. But, if it took you four weeks to make that, I don’t think you’ll be a millionaire in 12 weeks. Get my drift?

Next we see pictures of Justin’s car, his house, his lear jet…  Well, I could show you some awesome photos of me standing next to a classic car and a mansion and a jet, but it wouldn’t mean I owned them or paid cash for them.

In fact, it’s very common in positive thought circles to take a picture of yourself next to luxury items that you want in order to build the image of you having these things in your mind. Maybe Justin really owns this stuff. But, he’s already told is in his .pdf that it took him far longer than 12 weeks to “make his multi-millions” so at this point, I’m just a bit skeptical.

His sales copy is peppered with those time-sensitive trigger words: “I might take this website down at any minute!” “Get instant access now!” etc. All designed to drive you to action. And, of course, there’s his iron-clad, money-back guarantee in case you aren’t satisfied.

He boasts that in less than 15 minutes he can make $5,000 to $20,000 every day. Need a new couch? No problem! Heck, you could buy a new car for 15 – 30 minutes work at that rate!

Justin promises he’ll be your personal guide, and says that you can’t find this information anywhere else in the world. Sounds like a bargain for less than $50 bucks. So, I had to check this out.

Over the next few days, I’ll let you know what I found out about Justin Blake’s “Caveman to Millionaire” method.  So…

Stay tuned and listen up!

Don’t know why it took me so long to notice… there is a fatal flaw in my attempt to perform an unbiased review of the “free” version of this product.

When you choose the free options for MOIS, you are given one option only for your free website to promote:  home-based businesses. Kimberly Hoffman’s system is one of the three products promoted on your free website. In order to really do the MOIS system–at the least free version–you are basically FORCED to promote and sell her product whether or not you believe in it, whether or not you know if it will work. (more…)

Moving right along, and feeling MUCH better about MOIS now that I’m doing a lot of hands on work. (Have I said how bored I get just reading and learning and not doing???)

Here’s what I’ve accomplished today…

(more…)

Have I told you I’m a very action-oriented person? While I enjoy learning, I really like to have tasks to do while I’m learning. It helps to reinforce what I’ve learned, and I’ve always felt that I learn better in a hands-on type of environment.  So, Days 1-18 were tough.

Day 19 is organization day. This is fine. I like organization. (more…)

My Online Income System update:  More reading and studying, with no actual hands-on work. Probably more interesting for someone with no internet experience than it is for me. Still, there is a lot of good information being provided in the course and e-books presented for reading.

This is really difficult for me, as I’m a very action-oriented person. I understand the importance of looking before you leap, and knowing what you’re doing instead of rushing ahead.  ”Fools rush in where angels fear to tread.” Trust me, I’ve been a fool my fair share of the time…

(more…)

OK, I blew through the reading… as I said, it’s pretty basic so that even someone with NO experience can understand it. Since I was doing the tasks as I came to them (some I had already done long ago — like set up a ClickBank account), there wasn’t anything left to do for Days 6 and 7.

Since I want to see if money can be made with little to no money investment on my part (other than the initial fee for joining Kimberley’s program), I have chosen to not choose any of the upgrades that are being offered.

CAUTION: Again, I have to caution you, while Kimberley may have nothing but the best intentions for you, you have to be careful when following any on-line money-making system. You can easily be convinced to plunk down your credit card number for purchase after purchase because they all sound good.

Do a quick search at Google for “home based business” and you’ll get 136,000,000 results!  That’s pretty incredible.

More and more people every day are looking for a way to earn money outside of their regular paid job. No, I’m not going to use the tired old acronym Just Over Broke. Pretty much everybody out there who is generating an income through a home-based business got their start in their spare time while their J.O.B. paid their expenses. Many continued to work their J.O.B. while they also ran their home-based business until they got out of debt and had a little cushion in the bank before “firing their boss” (yet another cliche).

OK, here we go with the first experiment. I received an email offering me an opportunity to get into Kimberley Hoffman’s My Online Income System (MOIS).

This is basically a 60-day step-by-step program to generating an income on-line. The creator, Kimberley Hoffman, states that she was a single-mom, waitressing and in 1 1/2 years was able to quit her job and live off of her internet earnings.
