« 5 tips to get out of foreclosure You have to build a system for true success in Real Estate »
Are you sick and tired of working the 8-6 hours, never seeing the family and restricted holiday time? Life is meant to be fun – surely making our companies rich while we struggle financially and with family relations. Well here are 5 ways to step you out of the rat race you are in, and get you on your way to living the lifestyle you choose!
5 options to mull over and weigh up which will be your vehicle out of the rat race:
PROPERTY – Yes, I can hear you say – property NOW? In this economy! To be honest, yes property is a great one. Do the research, look in the papers, talk to real estate agents, and your bank. There are many ways of making money in property – a fantastic book to read is “0 to 150 properties in 3.5 years” by Steve McKnight. It shows you many different ways in an easy to read format! Follow this and you will be on your way!
STOCKS – Now don’t shake your head at me and think I am completely mad. Before you jump to any conclusions read the article “Buy American, I am” by Warren Buffet. Here is a man who has survived stock crashes previously, and is one of the wealthiest men in the world, from stocks. My suggestion is do the research, if you are passionate about stocks – you will find a way to make money, especially at this time! Speak to others who are making money in stocks at this time – and learn from them.
DEVELOP YOUR OWN BUSINESS – You may be sitting on an idea that the world is craving right now! Put a comprehensive business plan together and ask people what they think. This may be hard, as it is your “baby” they are talking about – but see if there is a recurring theme in their comments, if there is, adjust it so it becomes a positive attribute. A fantastic book to read is “The E-Myth” by Michael Gerber – he writes in laymen’s terms on how to make a business work for you, not you work for the business. After all you are after freedom not working harder than you are now right?
FRANCHISES – These are proven systems that make you money. The biggest thing here is you will need to outlay a reasonable amount of money. However as these are proven, it may be easier to get a business loan for a franchise than for an unproven business of your own. Again, find a franchise that aligns with an interest of yours, which has similar values to you and yep, you guessed it, research! If you are looking for less of a risk than building your own business, then this will definitely be something to consider.
BUSINESS FROM HOME – With the internet so readily available anywhere, it is easy for certain business to run from home. If you want to be home for kids, want to be your own boss and earn what you put in, a home based business is one of the best options. There are thousands out there, so it is important to do your research, as the one that looks too good to be true may often be illegal. Find a home based business that interests you, check that it will give you the freedom you are looking for and also the income. A lot of home based businesses are quite cheap to start, so great if you don’t have much to begin with.
So, which one? Read each of the titles again. Ask yourself – which one feels right, or sounds good to me? Pick that one to start with. You may find gold the first time, but don’t be discouraged if you don’t – I definitely didn’t and I tried practically all of them before I found my vehicle to freedom. Learn from the mistakes, and reward your successes – enjoy the journey and it won’t be long until your lifestyle of choice will be a reality.
