doing it right…

Ok…
…this might sound a bit ‘off‘ from what a lot of people are saying, but I PROMISE you, that what
I’m saying here is not only true, but when you really get it – I don’t think you’ll ever struggle to have
money in your life again.
Let me define this for you…
When I say that making money is easy – I’m not saying it doesn’t involve work – what I am saying
is that there should be no struggle involved in the process, and when you understand the flow of
money and how to create income on demand, your income will ‘flow’ instead of having that feeling
that you’re beating your forehead against a wall with nails in it…
Here’s how t his post got inspired:
I was in an airport the other day, and got talking to a speech pathologist who is traveling through
Costa Rica with some friends for the next month or two. After 2 or 3 minutes, she asked me what I
do for a living, and I just decided to tell her the truth…
“I’m a drug dealer.”
Af t er she got nervous, I laughed and said ‘kidding, seriously – what I do is EVEN better – I get
paid to live like I want all day.’
We then started talking about economics, the government, the Federal Reserve System, and how
the internet and instant communication fits into the future of the world.
(well, OK – it was me talking and her being bewildered by foreign concepts that almost no one
understands…)
It became very clear to me in about 10 minutes, that this 35 year old gal had NO IDEA how the flow
of money worked in the world, and it got me thinking…
…I wasn’t really able to create income on demand until I learned how the flow of money worked –
and once I understood HOW it worked – I got rid of a bunch of silly concepts that were holding me
back from creating what I wanted to create in my life.
Since that time – I’ve consistently made around $30,000 per month, and sometimes a lot more
from my various businesses – and honestly, with very little struggle, it just ‘flows’.
So what t he HECK did I learn?
Well, I was raised in a Mormon family, went on a mission, went to public school, my Grandpa was a
University president for UAF in Fairbanks, Ak – and BOTH of my parents were exceptional
students and products of the ‘system’ of the baby boomers…
…all of this nonsense resulted in me (along with the entire baby boomer generation – WHICH by

2. the way, isn’t as true anymore, they are waking up to the real nature of what’s been happening to
them in a BIG way right now) not understanding AT ALL the truth behind creating income.
I was raised with the philosophy that if I worked hard – I would be paid a fair wage for my labor –
whether it is mental labor, as a product of my intellect and education, or whether it was physical
labor (as a product of skipping school too much… lol)
In any case – it took me A LONG TIME to figure out that what I just described has absolutely
nothing to do with how much money you’re going to have. Let me give you an example of how my
personal stupidity resulted in a lot of poverty in my life:
I got involved in Amway in 2002, right after I was done being a Mormon missionary for 2 years in
the British midlands. When I was a missionary – I had paid for all of my bills 2 years in advance, and
the finances were managed by someone who was good with numbers (a mission accountant,
essentially). My bills were paid from a central location that I didn’t manage, electricity, land-line (we
weren’t allowed to have cell phones) and then about 40 pounds was direct deposited into my bank
account every 2 weeks that was for ‘extra food’ when people didn’t feed us. (true story).
So I was completely free from financial burden, had my needs met all the time, never knew how
much anything costs – and could focus on mission work (the point of the accountant guy –
usually one of these guys manages about 300 missionaries).
I don’t know if I consciously thought this – or if it was an unconscious belief – but for some
reason, when I got in Amway – I thought if I just ‘worked hard’ that I would have money
mysteriously appear in my bank account.
NOT t he case!
It ’s f unny – but if you’re an employee and you just ‘work hard’ you’re pretty much guaranteed a
set wage as long as you have a job and perform – but employee’s rarely think about where the
money for that wage comes from, that it has to come from several things:
1. Money changing hands from one person to another
2. Profit being generated from the difference between cost of goods and the revenue created.
3. BAMB! There’s now money to pay the employees, and hopefully some left over at the end of
the month for the boss! (otherwise, you ain’t going to have that job for long)
Let me tell you the important part of that scenario though – that is the KEY indicator of a
successful business:
1. MONEY CHANGING HANDS
You see, when I was in Amway, I worked REALLY HARD – the problem was, I didn’t understand
that working hard has nothing to do with how much money you make. Let me explain the formula
in a little more detail, and I’m going to show you how most people get hung up:
The f ormula is t his: Person A has money, and gives it to Person B in exchange for something he
wants.
Here’s the thing most people don’t get (it’s not that they don’t understand it – it’s that they never
really think about it). To get the money from Person A – Person B doesn’t have to actually be
involved in that process AT ALL.

3. ?!?!?!?!?! WHAT?!!?!?!?! YOU MEAN I DON’T JUST HAVE TO WORK HARD TO GET
MONEY!@!!@!!
Nope – in fact, how hard you work has nothing at all to do with how much money you are going to
have in your life – how much money you’re going to have has literally only one key factor – how
many people give you money, how much they give you, and what your profit margins are after you
pay for everything.
When I figured that out – I started asking the next key question:
“Gosh dangit – how then do I get lots of people to give me lots of money – and what do I give
them in exchange that’s so valuable that they’ll KEEP giving me money over, and over again???”
Lol. Kind of funny in one way – but thinking along those lines let me to a fascinating discovery –
there are only actually a FEW WAYS of getting people to give you money! (legally, anyways – we’ll
throw out gun-point robbery and drug dealing for now) All you have to do is pick one of these
ways (they have different levels of pain and work depending on the method) and BAMB! Let’s
make you some easy cash now!
Met hod # 1 (The St upid Way): Trade your manual labor (either mental or physical) for money your
boss gives you, and just expect that it will keep working. The reason this way sucks, is that you’re
intimately involved in the money-getting process, meaning that you have to show up to get paid.
Met hod # 2 (The Smart er, But Not So Smart Way): Sell stuff to people that they don’t want or
need, by getting really good at selling. This method can work to make lots of cash now – but the
problem is, you’re still intimately involved in the process and are trapped – just like the employee –
and since people don’t really want your stupid product, you won’t have any recurring purchases
and selling will eventually burn you out.
Met hod # 3 (Get t ing There – But Not Quit e The Great est Money Get t ing Met hod): Find a
group of people who want something, and find a way to sell your product or service to them by
leveraging what THEY WANT, to sell them what YOU WANT. This method actually works quite
well if you know how to sell, but the problem with it is, there’s always a limited market with this
method – if you have to convince people to do something that they don’t quite want, you’ve
always got to be coming up with crazy ways to sell it to them. Although this isn’t my MAIN
METHOD of earning income – I still use it all the time to sell valuable products and services to
people who don’t know they want them… (yet)
Met hod # 4 (ALMOST t he great est money making met hod ever, but not quite): Find out a
product that a lot of people already want, and find the cheapest, best way of delivering it to them.
Man, this method just rocks – the reason? No real selling required, you can acquire customers and
keep them cheaper and longer if you give great value – PLUS, you can also upsell them products
that they didn’t know they needed yet. However, this method still, although somewhat leveraged,
is a high paying job – however, it’s a relatively easy one if you manage it properly. But
unfortunately, if you stop working, your income stops, which leads us to…
Met hod # 5: The BEST Way Of Money Get t ing In The Hist ory Of The World! Are you ready for
this? Ok, grab a pen….
“Find a people who want a product with high profit margins and repeat purchases, find the best
way of selling it to them WITHOUT you being involved in the process at all…”
I just had an orgasm.

4. (brb)
Ok, got my new shorts on – the cool thing about this method is that once you set it up – people
give you money without you doing anything! Now that’s cool!
That means, you can make a ridiculous income, live wherever you want in the world, do what you
love, and money just flows into your account on autopilot – with no hard work, effort, or energy
involved.
That’s why I like Network Marketing (when done properly)
So here’s the couple of questions I have for you:
1. Are you trying to sell something that people just don’t want, or do you just suck at selling it?
2. Is there high enough profit in what you do to eventually outsource it so you don’t have to
continue managing something for the rest of your life?
3. Is there a big enough market to sustain your dream lifestyle?
4. If you want – you’re welcome to send money my way, any time – just click on any of the images
that ‘glow’ when you hover over them.
Lol.
In any case – I hope that you take these concepts and make a boat load of cash – the world
needs more rich people to create jobs, buy nice stuff, and otherwise show us all what’s possible
when the mind of man (or woman) is focused on a singular cause.
To the top,
