    future by typing CATALOG instead of GO. Due to the numerous menu 
    selections available, this catalog also has a bookmark feature to return 
    you to your last location each time you use it, if you wish. This feature
    will cause a DOS error on write protected disks.

     Even if you are happy in your present job, can you look into the future 
     to see what tomorrow will bring? An injury or illness can make certain 
     types of work impossible. A corporate downsizing can leave you down and 
     OUT!

     If you were to, for whatever reason, find yourself out of a job
     tomorrow, would you be one of those who would say "I wish I had
     prepared myself sooner with some type of home-based business"?
 
     The day the ax falls is not the time to try to start a home-based
     business. This is especially true if you have been living from paycheck 
     to paycheck. The terror, confusion and depression that may follow the 
     loss of a job makes it almost impossible to successfully learn, plan, 
     and execute a home business venture in as short a time as you will 
     probably need to.

     Any business takes time to grow into an efficient, profitable operation. 
     It's true that a home-based mail-order operation takes far less start-
     up capital than other, more conventional, businesses, but that doesn't 
     mean it takes less attention to the other details of running a business.

     Start today to prepare for that "rainy day" that can happen at any time 
     to anyone. Take the time to slowly and correctly start and grow your 
     home-based venture into a real, genuine, profitable home-based career. 
     I hope you find something in this catalog disk that will help you 
     accomplish this task. If you don't find it here, find it somewhere. 
     But do something! 
     
     Oh, and if you're around 45 or younger, those "in the know" say don't 
     bet the farm on social security being what it is today when you need it!

     Plan for your future now!

     OPPORTUNITIES ONLINE is dedicated to the home-based entrepreneur and the 
     disk-based author/publisher. This electronic newsletter is directed to 
     those who may be interested in beginning a home-based mail order 
     business, writing/publishing disk-based books and information products, 
     or just looking for a good place to advertise their products and 
     services and to network with other PC entrepreneurs.
     
     Many computer owners are not programmers and do not otherwise directly 
     earn a living in a computer related field (count me in). If it's more 
     complicated than a batch file, I'm lost! But I don't mind being lost. I 
     drive, but I'm not much of a mechanic. I watch TV, but just spent over 
     $100 to have the big console fixed! You don't have to be able to fix 
     cars or TVs to use them or to make a lot of money selling them!
     
     Those of us in this non-programmer category sometimes wonder if there 
     is life beyond the local Computer Bulletin Board System (BBS). Or we 
     ask ourselves if there is a more meaningful use for our expensive 
     digital toys other than flight simulators or home budget programs.
   
     Many have probably wondered about the possiblility of using a computer 
     to somehow generate additional income.  Maybe you would like to start a 
     part-time occupation involving desk-top publishing, information 
     publishing, software development and/or sales, PC disk or BBS adverti-
     sing or any number of possible computer related ventures/adventures.
   
     Many of us dream of being able to tell the boss goodbye.  To work
     from our home.  To set our own hours.  To live our dream.

     Is it possible? Of course it is! Anytime you can assemble useful, 
     "IN DEMAND", information on a PC disk, copy it for a quarter, and sell 
     it for $25.00 the answer is a BIG YES! (Plug that into your calculator
     and you'll come up with a profit margin of around 8000%!!!)

       
     Did you know that to gross $40,000 per year takes only about $128.00 
     in orders per day, six days a week? It takes less than two hours per 
     day to process Opportunities Online product orders for that amount!
   
     
     Can you do it?  Probably!  But only you know what you are capable
     of doing and the amount of motivation or reward necessary to get
     you going.  I do know this: If you have enough skill to read this
     text file, you're headed in the right direction!
   
     Recent news  articles  report  that  disk-based  publications are
     becoming hot sellers,  especially among the college crowd. One
     article said some bookstores are dropping prices on some of their
     printed  titles in an effort to compete with this new technology.
     And now an electronic bookstore wants to distribute your disk-based 
     works to millions of people!

     Publishing disk-based information products can certainly be one of the 
     better money-making  opportunities  of the decade. The ability to pack 
     a huge amount of useful information on a cheap-to-buy, cheap-to-copy, &
     cheap-to-mail disk is not going unnoticed.

     If you truly want to put your computer to work for you, proven methods 
     exist to make it happen.  Many people are earning a good income through 
     home-based mail order operations using their PC as the nerve center.

     Disk-based advertising is more economical than many forms of print media 
     for several reasons.  First, you get to say a lot more here than you can 
     in a 1, 2, or 3" display ad, and you can do it for less. Second, this 
     disk is considered shareware, and readers, like you, are encouraged sell
     /distribute/upload copies of this disk! Because of this distribution 
     method, and because of the nature of electronic publications, your ads 
     will hang around for a long time and can end up in exotic, far away 
     places.

     Your 200 word ad can be placed on this disk AND on our BBS in Dallas
     for 60 days for just $15.00!  And once you place an ad you become an
     instant ad broker and can sell adspace for Opportunities Online and 
     keep 50% of everything you collect. Plus your future ads are 50% off! 
     See the ADS.EXE ad for an even better deal! At this price we must ask 
     that your ad be submiited on an IBM compatible disk as an ASCII text 
     file. Or include an extra $2.00 for paper-based ads.


     Don't have a 200 ad? Or maybe you just want to test the waters? Send 
     just $4.00 and your 50 word (or less) ad and I'll post it here on the
     Gazette for a minimum of 60 days! (Paper-based submissions okay for
     50 word ads.)
