If you wanted to start a small internet business selling a product, what do you think would be the easiest to get (product) and most likely to sell in 2010?

Either weight loss stuff, or porn. And no, I'm not joking.

Ha ha, thats exactly what my teenagers said! ha ha, well, anything else? I would love to do the cookie or candy thing but it's so done I'm not sure if it makes a profit anymore. Looking for a new nitch, I don't want to be on Jerry Springer just yet, and vitamins? Weight loss? Really? Thats a thought.

There are certain things that always sell, even in a poor economy. One of them is sex. Then since the average American is a fat, unhealthy couch potato, in order to get sex they have to occasionally try to make themselves look better by losing some weight. So there you have it, weight-loss porn. Make some workout videos with naked men and women demonstrating the exercises.

Brilliant!

So, your worth a mil? Did you get rich yet from this yourself? I can't imagine these things to ever be true, would be interested in knowing if they work.

The porn and weight-loss industries are cut throat....and they are not recession proof.

Regardless, questions like this always make me laugh a bit. If someone had a good answer, why state it instead of doing it?
