eBay as an occupation

eBay announced today that the number of people using eBay as a primary or secondary source of income has risen to more than 724,000, a 68 percent jump from the previously recorded figure, 430,000 in 2004. In addition to these professional eBay sellers, another 1.5 million individuals say they supplement their income by selling on eBay. The survey was conducted by ACNielsen International Research.
?eBay?s impact on job creation in the U.S. has been tremendous, and the health of our nation?s economy depends on employment,? said James K. Glassman, resident fellow, American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research, who has analyzed the survey results. ?A considerable amount of jobs have been created and enabled through eBay in the last few years, making it an important employment creation engine that many never considered just five years ago.”

    Ok I had enough of this. I have been hearing enough about this e-bay thing, i hear people create money out of it and its a fantastic thing.

    I live in a place called Bahrain, I cant have paypal account because its not supported in my country, even if i had mail address in America it wont work.

    Can I still make money out of this thing safely?
    Can I join the community?
