Many years ago my late father told me this story once when we were talking about some potential outcomes of a project.

An old man, who was known as a non-believer, one day was caught praying.
“How comes you are praying?”, they asked.
“Well, if there is no God, it’s no harm…,” he said. “But what if there is?”

When I first read about AGLOCO that was exactly my reaction. What if?

The idea of sharing all the revenue with those that create the (warning: buzzword!) social networks seems to be something worth to think about. It even worked during the dotcom boom era. This new re-incarnation might be a better approach: they don’t promise a fixed amount, just a share of what they might make.

I figured: there is nothing to lose. I can join, try to build my network, and in the worst case scenario - that’s all. We clicked several times here and there, signed up on the site, sent out a few emails. But what if? What if I missed it and everybody else would be making money from it, except me because I was reluctant to join? Can I afford such a luxury?

You know what? I joined. You can do it, too.

Think about the wise old man…
