How to detect a scam

So you're interested in a new, developing field of nursing practice, or a business opportunity. Like any prudent person, you go to google.com and type in whatever the field or opportunity is, and check out the results.

And most of the time, the results returned will be almost all sites wanting to sell you information about whatever the subject is.

Which is not necessarily bad. There's a lot of really good information out there, which can save you a great deal of time.

But if you want to find out the drawbacks of a certain area, how do you get them?

Easy.

When you type in your search, add the word "problem" to your search.

For example, you're wanting to find out if opening a home health agency is for you. In this instance, type in "home health agency problem." What this will do is bring up sites that discuss difficulties in a particular field.

It's important to know of any issues you might encounter in an area. Some of the sites that will come up will be from whiners who just enjoy complaining about something they failed at. But you will find those who are honestly discussing the pros and cons of the field.
