Are You Ready to Make Some $$$ in 2008?

I hope you had a wonderful, restful holiday season. I just returned from a great vacation in southern California. I'm well-rested and ready to get back to business!

On the airplane ride out to California over the holidays, I began reading Robert Kiyosaki's #1 Bestseller Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids about Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!

Over the next few months I'll be sharing some pearls of wisdom I learned from this book. To start off 2008, think about this...

So many people are fixated on working their way up the corporate ladder. Why in the world is this so appealing? Why not own the ladder? Robert's "Rich Dad" encouraged him to always remember who you are working for...who are you making rich?

In my legal world, I am a fifth-year associate. I work for the partners in the law firm. I get a small portion of that $190 I bill per hour. I am making the partners rich. If I stick with it, I can become a partner and get to keep a larger chunk of that money. Doesn't sound that exciting does it? Sure, I can make a good living...but I know for a fact that I won't become wealthy. I want to make money even when I'm not working on my business. But, if I continue on my course, I will seal my fate as being stuck in the rat race.

Robert talks a lot about the rat race in his book, and basically that is working for a pay check, giving a hefty portion of your money to the government in taxes (sales tax, property tax, fuel tax, income tax, capital gains tax...), then what you have left you spend most and save a little (and of course you'll be taxed on what you save). Even when you start making a little more money, you find yourself spending more money, giving more money to the government, perhaps racking up some credit card debt to pay for the high price of tuition, gas, living expenses...It's a never ending cycle. As a Probate lawyer, I see what happens to the average person who works their whole life, and saves a little money. They leave a bunch of bills, funeral expenses, etc. and they have little to no money to give to their family.

I am fortunate to have realized over a year ago that I could easily end up in this situation if I didn't make a change in my life. I am willing to bet that this may be the situation many of you could be facing as well.

The good news is there is another option. You CAN get out of the rat race. Robert says "every day, with every dollar, you decide to be rich, poor, or middle class". I think this is true with every decision you make regarding how you spend your time as well. Time away from building your business moves you closer to a future in the rat race.

With a fresh new year laid out before you, you can re-commit yourself to building your business. If you pushed the business to the side during the holidays, put that behind you. Now is when people are really looking for a change. The credit card bills will be arriving shortly showing us how much we really spent over the holidays. People will be looking to bring in some extra money each month, and that's where you come in!

Don't let this high-season of network marketing pass you by. Attraction Marketing can help you get there! Just last week, while Richard and I were on vacation, a lady joined our business...I had never even spoken with her! Guess how she found me? Attraction Marketing!

If you want to get out of the rat race, and start building your business like we have, without cold-calling leads and chasing around family members and friends-you can if you go here now!
