Left Alone in Stupidity
I watched with envy as my best friend and her husband moved the last article of furniture out of their cramped apartment onto the moving truck. My smile was as fake as the fur jacket Pam gave me for Christmas.I could not understand how she and her husband were able to afford a $500,000 new house while I was barely paying the $950.00 rent in my 2br-2ba apartment. I mean they had mentioned investments and an adjustable rate mortgage but I wasn't paying attention. Who makes investments while living in an apartment complex.I remember when it all started. Matt, my best friend's husband purchased a book called "Missed Fortunes" by Douglas Andrews.
The book talked about using the equity in your home to become wealthy. I didn't have a mortgage. The book was big so I put it down within minutes of Matt giving me a copy. Matt, however, read the book day and night, on his breaks at work, at lunch and in the evening. Then he bought another book by Robert Kiosaki and started the reading all over again telling me I needed to get a home-based business to decrease my tax liability and make money.
Oh no, not that MLM thing, I thought. Over the next few months, I watched them smiling, planning running their business over the Internet. I hated Pam today as much as I did when she went to weight-watchers without me and lost 30 lbs (of ugly fat). Can you believe that? I was really jealous. When their business started making a little money, Pam did not want to go shopping at the mall anymore.
Pam told me she was using the money to form a LLC with some other friends they had met at a business seminar."Other friends?" I asked her in my most pitiful tone, "I thought I was your best friend". "You are, Gina, she said but these are business partners, we are going to buy property together. Yeah, right, I thought you are going to buy investment property while you live in an apartment? Yes, she said happily. Even then, I thought, these guys are wackos. Nobody can do that.But they did it all.
Matt started an online business that netted him almost $44,000 the first year. Matt used affiliate programs that were all set up for him. All Matt did was advertise. When Matt told me his new house was only costing him $1800/month with his adjustable rate mortgage. He was making $4,000/month with his affiliate business and he had three loans through his LLC for $20,000 each that was just sitting in the bank that did not impact his credit, I started listening but I was too late, my friend was already leaving me.
Yes, they formed that LLC with two of his other friends and they purchased 2 duplexes and 2 triplexes right here in Sacramento again with an adjustable rate mortgage at less than 2% interest rate. They even had the nerve to ask me if I wanted to rent one of the units. Of course I didn't want to move. I liked where I was living. I knew the landlord personally.
Well, now they are driving away from me leaving me in this apartment complex that I love so much. I wanted to run after that truck. I wanted to go with them. I want a $500,000 house too.I went to work to find myself a home-based business and I found out that affiliate programs are the best bet for making money on the Internet. I started really reading good books on real estate investing and I'm on my way to that house next door PAM.
I'm following the lead of people who actually made it happen for themselves. Affiliate programs are like that. You just plug into their knowledge center and reap the benefits..

Being Small Has Its Advantages
Those of us business owners who do it all, whether we are home based or a small business have it made. With today's technology we can look as big as we want. With the web, faxes, video conferencing and all the burgeoning technology you don't need to be a big business to succeed today. We can do a lot that our competition can't or won't do. So let's take advantage of being small.In fact, being small has its advantages.
The mom and pop or one person operation only has to worry about themselves not employees. If we have a bad month, someone else is not depending on us to pay them.

We can go with our creative ideas. We don't have anyone to answer to but ourselves. So our creative process doesn't need to go through channels or get someone else's approval. Another advantage, especially for those of us in a home...
