Need advice - what you will do?

Hello guys, i need your advice because i find myself in a big dilemma.
I have a lot of business ideas that im 100% sure that will work, but the main problem is that i don't have the financial power to start them. And i don't talk about big $$$...i mean small investments (but for me in this point seems impossible to make).
Now is the big dilemma, should i start looking for some partners?
How do i chose them or how i make sure they don't just steal my ideas?

Just to give you a little example:
I can make a team of 1-50-100 persons to make articles, press release, anything is about content...
I have a idea about dating niche, something about making connection with real girls for chat and discussion.(not porn video-chat)
I have ideas about a WSO creation.

and many more....

PS: i have start a website that will bring me around 500$ per month as soon it gets nr 1 on google, but now is just on position 10 on first page. I will have to wait at least another month until i hit position 1, to get that money. but then i will have to live as well...so will be hard to start a bigger project.

So, what you suggest me to do to get myself start? how can i chose or find a trusted partner?
Or should i wait until i have the capital to start this on my own?

Please understand i know that many guys think they have the best ideas ever, and etc...but im not one of them. I have my ideas and i can prove them that will work, my main problems is money to start them. So please avoid to answer in joke or smart answers. I'm looking for some honest opinions, not to see who is smarter...
Thanks and i really appreciate this forum.

    Forget about "lot of ideas" and focus on one. Get a job and save up enough money to fund the idea. Everyone says they have great ideas and many of them do. But unless you have had success in the past it's hard to get partners to come along with you.

    Best thing to do is make one of them work and then you can actually show people you've been successful. Good luck.

      Thanks for the answer. It really helps. I mean, i know my main problem is that i chose more things at one time and don;t just focus on one thing. The problem is that i don;t find a job, and even if i find a job will be on less money, not even to live...I don;t stay in US...so is a little harder, but not complain at all.
      I know that in this world if you want to be successful you need to work hard, and this is what i try to do. But all my possibility and money to spare are in my website project..for the moment.

      Is not so hard to get partners, but im afraid to expose my ideas with others, this is my main concern...

      Anyway, thanks again for replay, i really appreciate any advice!

    You could use postings in forums, or news groups to help drive targeted traffic to your website. You could also do some guest blogging as well.

      That site is made to be rent(something like a recomandation site), and i already have clients for it.The site will get traffic from google, i don't care how much. I just need to get it on top 3 on first page, ideal will be on position 1...but need time for that. I have invested in a link building software, and i have jump from page 8 on page 1. I can rent the site now, but will be for few $$$..and will not worth it.

      Thanks for replay and help.

    Like previously said, find one method and stick to it. Starting out on a shoestring budget can be difficult and can take a lot of work to produce any results. It's best for you to stick to one method and work it will and move forward one step each and everyday. If not you might be better off getting a job part time that way you can pay your bills and so that you can fast track your results with paid advertising.

    If you are worried about someone stealing your ideas then sign a non disclosure agreement with them. There are other things you can do e.g. non compete agreement.

    As for many idea then I got to say FORGET every idea until ONE really works well.

    You'll come here asking the same things if you invest time and money in multiple ideas.

    Select ONE, work on it, do it consistently over a period of time and you're golden. Then you can expand to other areas.
