What is the gimmick behind On Line Business Systems (OBS)?

They advertise that you can earn all this money just working on your computer from home, but they don't give you any idea where you are spending money and what for.

    If a company wants you to pay them for a "system" and won't give you the details, it is because the details would make you not want to buy their "system." Basically these are all a waste of money.

    They get you to buy into their system. Their system is essentially getting others to buy into your system. There is no product other than a book that tells you how to make money by selling systems that tell others to buy a book that tells others how to make money by selling systems that tell others to buy a book that tells others how to make money by selling systems that tells others ....

    You get the idea.

    You can probably go to a national book store chain and find a similar book for a cheaper price that has better ideas on how to make money on-line. You can view the book before you commit to buying it.
