Here’s what I think ( Complete ) FINANCIAL
FREEDOM looks like…

* Enough assets and wealth so that the passive
income it provides can meet all your needs, so that
you never need to do a minute of work again if you
don’t want to.

* Earning income doing things that genuinely interest
you. And feeling totally comfortable saying no to offers,
jobs, etc. that do not or that no longer interest you.

* Earning income dealing ONLY with people you choose.
And saying no to those you don’t want to deal with,
without even a twinge of regret.

* Being and feeling completely free of any pressure,
other than self-imposed pressure to achieve goals
totally of your own selection.

* Not caring at all what anybody or everybody else
thinks of you, not worrying about who you please or
offend.

* Arranging your lifestyle to suit you.

* Possessing the ability to create income at will,
through marketing…. NOT through manual labor.

Guys…

I’ve had the privilege of previewing some of the articles
and letters that are soon to be released from Joe Schroeder
via his new marketing system.

They are beyond anything you’ve read to date.

Vintage Joe Schroeder.

Here’s a tiny sample…

Never forget this…

If hard work made people rich then all of the construction
workers would be living in Mansions. What makes those
who make insane amounts of Internet Income so diverse
from everyone else who struggles to make even minimum
wage — online — beyond the obvisious, is one word.

The SECRET is [ ]

OK…

You have to wait to find out what the SECRET is.

Stay tuned for more information in the days ahead.

You’re gonna love this!

We’ve all seen a cat or dog scratch themselves repeatedly.

Usually it’s a good indication that they’ve got fleas.

It’s uncomfortable for the animal because they’re constantly
having to scratch and bite to relieve themselves of the furry
of pinches and pricks.

They can’t get a moments peace.

The next attack could be just seconds away.

So it goes…

Over and over and over again.

Until the owner steps in with a bath of Advantage
( flea spray ) and waves Good-Bye to all of those
pesky fleas.

Let me ask you…

Guess who else has fleas?

Yep…

You and I.

No…

Not like that.

Worse.

We have Financial Fleas.

Think I’m joking?

I’m not.

How about those pesky creditors who call at all hours
of the day, asking if Mr Jones is available?

How about paying 18 – 22% on those pieces of plastic
you carry in your wallet or purse?

Or what about those late charges that appear on everything
from credit card statements, cell phone and cable bills, to mortgages and auto-loans?

Or the letters in the mail that come certified from the bank.

Those are the worse.

Ever experience any of the above?

Those are Financial Fleas.

Pesky little annoyances that rip apart your financial self
esteem each time you get one in the mail or on the phone.

You think to yourself…

“Damm… not again…There goes another $29.95 out the door!”

How did we attract Financial Fleas to us in the first place?

It’s simple…

Not enough cash-flow.

Your expenses exceed revenues.

( Your household is NOT a business but the finances
should still be run as if you’re in charge of a multi-million
dollar corporation. )

How do you get rid of Financial Fleas… once and for all?

Well…

Unfortunately you can’t have your master slap on some
Advantage ( flea spray ) and then be ready for a romp
in the park.

Doesn’t quite work that way for us humans.

We need a better plan.

How about if you created an extra stream of cash-flow
that totaled $3,000 a month or more?

Think that might help alleviate some of those Financial Fleas?

I think it would.

When I was 30 and broke…

An extra $300 a month would have been a blessing.

Let alone $3,000.

But here’s a gut buster for ya…

If you can make $300, you can make $3,000.

If you can make $3,000, you can make $30,000.

And so on.

The key is to get started.

Some of you are in programs right now that for whatever
reason are not working for you.

Others are looking for that right program to be a part of.

Regardless…

There is so much opportunity surrounding you that if
you took off your “Skeptical Glasses”, you’d see a whole
new world.

A world rid of Financial Fleas.

A world of paid off debts, positive balances ( not negative )
in your checking accounts, growing retirement and saving
accounts and most importantly…

Relief.

Relief from the scraping and scratching.

I’m not saying it will be easy…

Getting to this point does requires some faith.

Faith that things will be better tomorrow than they
are right now.

When you’re sitting there twiddling your thumbs and
worrying about the checkbook balance, it requires a lot
of nerve not to go back to the way things were.

I know; I’ve been there.

But if you want rid of your Financial Fleas, then you
must make a few changes today in order for things to
be better tomorrow.

The good news is that getting to the $3000 a month
mark in ANY program isn’t difficult. Admittedly, it helps
if you’re in a higher end program where you can realistically expect to make in upwards of $1000 – $4500 per referral.

With kinds of those numbers, $3000 a month is too easy.

But what if you’re in a program where you make $15 a month?

It would take 200 referrals to reach $3000.

Doesn’t mean one program is better than the other.

Just means that the journey will take a little longer.

Either way….

Get into a program that resonates with you.

When you find it, run with it.

Then you can leave those Financial Fleas in the dust!

Catch ya later,

Tim

PS: Who Am I ?

** I was going to write about Ezines… but I felt that what
I witnessed on Saturday will have a far more powerful
impact. It did for me. **

I learned a very valuable “life” lesson this weekend.

Yesterday, my Dad and I went to an Auction that was held
on the same farm where he was raised. The present owner
was auctioning off 35 acres of vacant land. The main farm
house, barns and remaining 65 acres were not sold.

As we walked around the property, my Dad shared story,
after story, after story of the good times he and his 3 sisters
had there.

A kid can get into a lot of mischief with over 100 acres to
roam and multiple barns and buildings to venture in and out
of!

Any-hoo…

He got to talking about how the property was once available
for purchase way back in 1963 or ‘64. He and my Mom had
just bought a property up the road and passed on the farm.

That was 40+ years ago.

June of 2006, the farm is still in operation.

Cows still graze the fields.

Horses still trot through the woods.

Fish are still caught in the lake.

Not a whole lot has changed expect for one tiny thing…

Real estate prices.

I don’t know what Mom and Dad would have paid for
the whole package back in the early 60’s but I know
it would have been far less than $4100 an acre.

( That’s what the 35 acres went for. )

When we got back home, my Mom inquired as to the
results of the sale. My Dad shared them with her and
they both took a long pause. Finally, my Mom spoke
and said…

“That was our biggest mistake. We had the chance to
buy that property 40 years ago. We could have had the
house, the land, everything”.

And so it goes…

Making decisions based on the present circumstances
and not the future.

The way I see it, my Mom and Dad missed out on a
$500K asset…. probably a lot more than that given
the home, barns, numerous outbuildings and free GAS!

Are there regrets?

Of course.

Both of them commented on the fact that they should
have grabbed it when they had the chance. Instead,
they stalled ( procrastinated ). Told themselves “They
can’t afford it” and guess what? A new buyer came in
and stole the farm out from underneath them.

That same person will get a check in a couple of
months for roughly $140K for the 35 acres that was
sold.

Oh well..

My parents can’t change the past.

40+ years have gone by. They’ve driven by the old
farm hundreds of times. Each time thinking to themselves…

“If only…”

For me, seeing my Dad get choked up at the sights and
sounds of his childhood memories being sold to the highest
bidder got my attention the most.

There he was, 71 years old.

And not a whole lot to show for his years of hard work.

I said you can’t change the past.

But you most certainly can predict the future by reviewing
the past.

Both my parents told me that knowing what they know
now, they’d bought the farm.

Making decisions based on where you’ll be v/s where
you are is so incredibly vital. My parents are living
testimony that by playing it safe and secure today,
you’ll only end up worried and insecure tomorrow.

I know I’ve had my share of missed opportunities in
my first 32 years on planet Earth. But after Saturday,
I will greatly reduce the number of missed opportunities
that come my way.

For you and your families future, I hope you do the same.

Take Care, Tim

As promised, I’m here to deliver the sample audio from the
ListFX Tele-Seminar Home Study Course as well as free

First Up…. ListFX.

Download the free sample audio with Stephen Pierce HERE.
It’s entitled “Massive Profits From Tiny Lists”.

Stephen is generating millions of dollars in cash-flow from
a list under 15,000. How does he do it? He gives all the
juicy details in the 48 minute interview with Keith Wellman.

It’s in a ZIP file. You’ll need WinZip to open it. Most

GO HERE to do so.

Next Up… Instant Blog Traffic

OK… this is really, really good stuff… especially considering
the fact that I paid only $7 for this information and now you’re
getting it for FREE!

It’s a collection of short videoes that outline some of the
latest ways of promoting your blog for FREE online.

Be sure to watch the video..

How to get thousands of visitors to your blog in 24 hours
Parts I & II.

What I liked most about the videos ( besides the fact
they have great content ) was that they were set up
in short, power packed segments. Most of the videoes
are under 10 minutes each which makes for quick viewing.

One warning though…

The guy who does the narrating is from the U.K. so his
accent makes him a little difficult to understand. You
can watch the videoes as many times as you need too.

In total, just under 90 minutes of ideas, tips and strategies.

When you click on the exe file below, you’ll be asked to
open or save the file. I’d save it to your desktop. A book
icon will appear on your desktop that when clicked on will
open the ebook, thus giving you access to the blog
videoes.
