I personally can't explain this any better myself than the amazing Tim Sales does in this fascinating free 8-minute video, so I won't even try. The video explains why "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer".

Pay close attention to the part about where white-collar professionals fit into this, and the part about owning a house. You won't hear what you expect to hear! Those ideas really surprised me and started me on the business path that I'm on today.

The video is animated, so it looks a little comical at first, but you'll soon realize that what the characters are saying is serious stuff!

So now that you're wondering how YOU can start doing what the wealthy do on payday, it's time to watch another free video, because I also personally can't explain this topic any better than Tim Sales does in the video. Tim Sales will explain one of the most brilliant, but misunderstood business models ever invented, during a discussion with a Harvard-trained PhD in Marketing, who teaches this topic.

Like the other video, this one is also animated, so it looks a little comical at first, but you'll soon realize that what the characters are saying is serious stuff! After you watch it, if you'd prefer to watch a non-animated DVD version, contact me, and I'll mail one to you.

The link takes you to a webpage in a new window. You'll find an introduction page with some more information about me, as well as links for both videos in the top left corner:

Research and Intuition!

Most of us start with intuition, by choosing either a product or a sponsor, after one sort of "coincidentally" falls into our lap or shows up on our radar screen.

Find a product that you are personally excited about. Then find a sponsor in that company that you can work with well. Find out as much as you can about that sponsor. You need to like her and trust her to either personally train you or to lead you to a source of high-quality training... either within that company or from an outside training company.

There are thousands of companies to choose from.

And there are reputable sources of information about business opportunities. One of the best is MLM Insider (opens in new window). Visit their website for information about a product or company that you have in mind, or if you'd like to find one.

Some important things to research or think about:

• Desirability of the product to the people who will be your likely customers
  
• Cost of the product for customers
  
• Socio-economic level of your likely customers
  
• Cost of monthly product purchase minimums for distributors
  
• Organization of the compensation plan of the company (so you understand what you need to do to start getting paid!)

You can also visit the MLM Opportunities page at my MLM Success Angel Guide website (opens in new window) for more information.

I found it amazing that the author's thinking about the human mind and the universe could be so progressive in 1937.

I'm a physician (pathologist). I live in Clearwater, Florida with my husband, Kurt, and our Bengal cat, Bengie. After 27 years together, after moving 12 times back and forth between 3 states, 1100 miles apart, we finally bought our dream house (our FIRST house) here several years ago, and we NEVER plan to move again. Actually, I shocked a few contractors in our house during our hurricane preparedness renovations in the past few years by saying "We're going to die in this house!" Then I had to explain that that's a GOOD thing, because I simply meant that we're never going to move again.

Kurt is also a physician (internal medicine)... as well as a successful local musician, after earning an associate degree in music from Jeff Berlin's Players School of Music here in Clearwater. He plays bass guitar more hours of the day (and night!) than he works in his part-time medical practice.

We are both compulsive and conscientious in our medical professional lives, but we want to spend as much time as we can at home and in our other interests. I actually love sitting at a microscope, looking at cervical and endometrial biopsies... parts of real live patients on a glass microscope slide... helping their doctors to treat their problems. And I actually have a wonderful boss, but.... it's a job, with all the frustrations of any other job, including the part about one-job-one-paycheck... and there are SO many other things I like to spend my 24 hours doing. So I'm transitioning to early retirement from medicine by way of my network marketing and internet marketing businesses.

Yes, I realize that our two-physician household with one cat and no children has "enough" money.... but who doesn't overspend, regardless of income level, or want more (or both)? What happens if one of us gets sick, disabled, or laid-off? (we're both employees... we don't run our own practices.) And who CAN'T find a good use for more money? Early retirement, charitable donations, household renovations/repairs/maintenance, travel? My list is much longer, and I'm sure yours is, too, if you're a human being on planet Earth in the 21st century!

I turned 50 recently. My body started to tell me it was coming about 3 years before that, though.
My job is physically stressful, because it keeps me inactive, seated, uses very few (but repetitive) small muscle movements, and leaves little time in the day for exercise and the other care that any aging body needs more and more of.
I won't be in that chair for 8 hours a day and on the road for another 2 hours a day until I'm 65 or older!

I enjoy landscaping, gardening (organic food and landscape plants), inventing healthy ice cream recipes, birding (birdwatching hikes with the Audubon Society), matting and framing our photographs to hang on our walls, and classical choral singing with the Tampa Oratorio Singers.

We both love the heat and humidity (and the other seasons, too... yes, we DO have seasons in Florida), the water, scuba diving, bicycling, hiking. And we plan to start kayaking.

My vision is to help miracles happen for as many people as possible by releasing them from the prison that we're all taught is the way we're "supposed to" live and work... one person, one job, one paycheck... for an entire lifetime. All it takes to create financial freedom is a change of thinking. The mind is very powerful. The abundance of the universe is there for those of us who learn how to make it ours. Pay attention. Keep your eyes and ears open. Trust your instincts.
There is no such thing as a coincidence!

Click here (opens new window) to see where I like to spend most of my time (hint: it's not at the microscope at the desk in the office in the first photo!) I DO also like to spend time with my husband, but he's camera-shy, so you won't see him here.">

My main purpose here is not to sell you my products or convince you to join one of my two business opportunities. But I'm not trying to hide them or be mysterious, either. So I'm providing just a few words here about both companies, in case you are interested... or maybe even interested in joining me.

Click here to learn about one of my fabulous companies (opens new window). The Business Presentation tab is at the top right corner of the page. I followed my #1 MLM Angel into this business. (MLM Angels are a topic of my other Squidoo lens/webpage and also the topic of a more comprehensive website that I'm currently building...opens new window.) I joined her business because I was attracted to her online presence, her email and phone availability, the training she provides, the marketability of the products, and the success that she and her associates were finding in online marketing. What will you get out of this relationship as an associate of mine? Her excellent training will also be provided to you, through me!

My other company may not be mentioned by name or linked from an outside website. But I CAN tell you that it markets a fantastic product that I will personally be using forever! Call or email me, and I can either direct you to their website or tell you anything you want to know... just not allowed to do it here in writing... company rules.
