These investors, many of them ordinary Japanese housewives, have managed this through what is known as the "yen-carry trade".

According to Randall Forsyth of Barron’s Online, the answer is no:

In today’s markets, the ultimate contrarian bet would [be] to buy yen. Were these yen-carry trades… to be reversed, these effective yen short sales would have to be covered, meaning yen would have to be bought."

The trouble is that dream-seekers like this often jump into a “make money from home” program without thinking about all the risks involved. For example, do you have a good enough skill base for the business you are considering?

Are you getting into a home business just for some quick money without enjoying the work that’s involved in that business?

There are risks involved when starting a home money making business, and if you are aware of these risks, then with careful planning, you can avoid some problems you may encounter along the way.
