Learn Affiliate Marketing

Is it necessary to sign up with a group such as Online Data Entry Institute, or Global Cash Flow Network, just companies that show you the ropes on how to become an affiliate. The way the advertising is written for these companys actually make it sound as if you will receive info online and fill in a form and submit it in order to get paid. Actually its not like that and it can be very costly to join the company to learn marketing affiliating. I have tried several times to do this type of at home work but it becomes frustrating and I have to spend quite some time chatting online or calling in for help. I understand that you can make quite a bit of cash with marketing but when you dont have the cash to put into it to start and then have to put more cash into it for additional learning materials and so forth even into advertising or mailing lists, you end up more broke before you make money. Is all this necessary, is there something less stressful on the pocket and brain. Maybe affiliate marketing is not what I need. I am looking for something online to make money through without the heavy cash give out and headache to learn. I just know the basic stuff of computer usage not what I am reading and I feel really lost.

I am also a affiliate marketer seasoned and i make a few dollars with only free tools no paid products in my marketing.
