Is there a REAL way to make money on the Internet?

Yup.
But you will have to click ALL day long,
and you will be paid one cent.

Actually, better than that. A few of the live poker websites
will add $12 to your stake every hour that you continue to play.
If you can play poker well enough to just stay even,
that's $12 an hour for you.

Or you do data entry for people, at home.

Or you could play Second Life all day. Many people have made
good money by creating virtual stuff in Second Life and then selling it
for real US dollars. Some lady named Anshe Chung made a million
dollars, in two and half years of playing.

A friend of mine makes his living re-selling eBay auctions. He makes
about $50,000/year by bidding on auctions that are poorly written.
He buys something that nobody was impressed with, re-writes the
description, puts the item back up for auction and sells it at a higher
price. He doesn't even handle the item itself - merely tells his seller
to ship it straight to his buyer, a couple days later.

Or you could create your own website. Collect a bunch of
information and articles into a few webpages.
Sign up for Google Ads, DoubleClick, or Yahoo ads, putting their
ads onto your website. Everytime somebody new clicks on the ad,
the advertiser pays the ad company, which in turn pays you.
Persuade 10,000 of your friends to click on the ad and you'll get
a few bucks.

Do you really want to sit all day though?

Wow AziMythe, I feel like you could have gone all day with examples.

I could never just sit at home and be on the computer all day. It may seem like a good idea for a week or something, but you need to get out eventually.
