Wealth Masters International Conference

Having just returned from a multiple day conference with Wealth Masters Int’l, and CCPro , my head is still swimming.  These conferences provide so much valuable information it takes a while to sort it out.  The WMI speakers at this event were true experts in their fields.  To provide a quick run down, the objective of the first 3 days was to educate the audience on what is going on nationally as well as globally from a financial perspective.  Additionally, strategies were discussed how to be successful business owners in these tumultuous times.

We heard from:
·    Wayne Allen Root – Author of “Relentless”
·    G. Edward Griffin – Author of “The Creature From Jekyll Island”
·    Jeffry Combs – Success coach for Leadership
·    Ron White – Demonstrated specific steps to increase memory
·    Kip Herriage – Discussed the greatest wealth transfer in history
·    Mike Maloney – The gold and silver advisor to Robert Kiyosaki and author of “Guide to Investing in Gold & Silver”
·    Kristen Kuchem of Everbank – Provided a review of suggested strategies for diversification

There were numerous other speakers throughout the conference, I’ll mention in future posts. You may want to look up the few mentioned already, as their track records speak volumes about them.

Those of you ladies reading this, please don’t think this type of financial conference doesn’t apply to you.  It is meant for YOU more than anyone.  Having been divorced, widowed, and a single parent for 10 years I know what it’s like to be concerned about having my money stretch far enough and last long enough.  The insights and strategies I heard were invaluable.  My only regret is that I hadn’t heard of these opportunities years ago.  For more information please don’t hesitate to contact me by using the tab above…..

Until next time,  J.

Should You Supplement Your Income or Tap Retirement Funds, Regardless of Penalties?

As more people are feeling the crunch in the economy, due to an increase cost in groceries and living expenses, (in addition to job losses), more people are either cashing in their retirement funds or borrowing against them despite penalties. There is concern that future retirees will be less prepared than now, because of drawing down savings for the short term. However, it might still be the best personal choice at the time for some. Read the linked article from www.msn.com to see some of the problems and choices being made.

Successful Home Business So You Can Laugh At The Headlines

Looking at the business section of a local newspaper can be enough to give even the stout-of-heart more than pause for worry. Economic times, worldwide, have taken a shift toward hard times ahead. "Liar loans," long the mainstay for unscrupulous mortgage lending (requiring no proof of income or assets) are but a fraction of the troubles facing many.

Other headlines indicate even more mortgage lending problems. Consumers are using credit cards to cover expenses now that their home values are declining. Yes, overall there is more financial doom and gloom at the moment then reason to celebrate.

Suggestion – Quit listening to CNN (Constantly Negative News). It will only paralyze you into "inaction." You will find yourself dwelling on the negative, which will then become your mindset. Instead, focus on the positives. This is a Global Economy with opportunities as abundant as your dreams.

Many (in spite of the U.S. economy) want to pursue home based businesses either to supplement their income or to make a change in lifestyle. The internet is a natural beginning point to search for a business that’s right for you.

But with too many options to choose from – many mere pie-in-the-sky hopes for instant riches – what constitutes a solid work at home business plan since having a plan is so critical?

A solid home business model should encompass three stages :

1. The means to get you out of your current financial situation
2. The tools to provide you with access to solid investments
3. The ability for you to also help others do the same.

Applying Stage One

A highly recommended plan of action would be to create the means (the money) to even start your home business. Versus taking out loans, charging up your credit cards, or begging your relatives for money, consider getting your personal finances in order. With a well-oiled system for getting out of debt, the freed-up money now becomes the source you use to go into business online. This can be done!

However, buyer beware. There are systems and services online – and broadcast all over the television – promising to get you out of debt. (Some even promise to make you rich!) Many are legitimate, many are not. Don’t fall for believing everything you hear; due diligence on your part is the key. Desperate people do desperate things. Step outside desperation and get the assistance you need to have a solid debt-relief plan.

With that idea in mind, again there are companies at your disposal to help you. Turning to professionals for help – even if you believe you don’t need help – may be the turning point that has been missing in your life.
