Why Families Should Talk About Money as Financial Education for All

Mikael — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 20:05:06 +0000

If you have been following this blog for even a little while you are probably aware that I think it is sad that most of our society knows very little about money and personal finances and because of this there are millions of people struggling to make ends meet. And I am only talking about the Western world here. One of the reasons for this problem to even exist might be that very few of us have ever been taught anything about money beside that we should get a good education and go find a job so we can work for money. There is no Money101 class in the schools and only if you take special courses will you even know what debit, credit and a balance sheet is. How can we expect to know about something if it was never taught to us? Then there is... Read more

Now you know that I am a big fan of using leverage to increase my outcome but also because I like that things happen without me doing much (if anything) once things are set up.

Stop Product Jumping If You Hate Starting Over

Mikael — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 13:27:44 +0000

Have you ever been the “victim” of buying tons of Internet Marketing products? You start off by buying a well promoted product about becoming a super affiliate marketer making millions from selling other peoples products… …you read the ebook / watch the videos and might even be taking a lot of notes… … you do product research, sign up for affiliate programs, create a website, starting buying PPC traffic and the result is that you sell very little (if anything) and it costs you a lot of money. Sound familiar? Now you have three choices. You can keep working on this business and hope that you will get better and eventually learn how to make a profit from doing it, or… You can quit trying to become an affiliate marketer ... Read more

Teach Your Kids to Make Money with Money

Mikael — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 14:47:10 +0000

If you are like most people you have probably been raised and taught in school to get a good education and to go get a good high paying job. I am not saying that there is anything wrong with this solution but it is important to realize that it is not the only way to live. The problem for most of us and I believe it is one of the reasons that so many people are struggling is that it is the ONLY way we know how to make money. Our schools and our parents haven’t been able to teach us anything else… but I have a suggestion that you can use to help your kids (and yourself) from ending up in the same situation. At least they should have an alternative to getting JOB, right? Budget and Money Making When your kids are old enough let the... Read more

Copy The Rich – Even Their Vocabulary

Mikael — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 08:07:30 +0000

Have you ever given some thought to how differently people speak and the words they use? If not then it might be time to start giving it a bit more attention because it has been proven that your vocabulary has an effect on your life and that applies to your financial situation as well. In the post about stopping your excuses we looked at bit out how words and in particular questions are an important part of becoming rich. If you ask good questions it will work for you but if you ask lousy questions it can hurt you. In a study done by some social behavior experts they proved that people that are put in prison have a very limited vocabulary compared to the average person. Often a limited vocabulary would make the person more violent, which I ... Read more

Can You Make Good Money from Hubpages?

Mikael — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 20:59:05 +0000

In the last approximately 4 weeks Courtney Tuttle has been running a test over at The Keyword Academy where he sat out to create 100 keyword targeted Hubpages in order to see what kind of income they could generate. Personally I find that 100 Hubpages in 30 days is a pretty big chunk of work to add to whatever else you’re already doing but I assume that Court has someone else to run his daily business or had some help creating the articles. Either way the project created a lot of buzz in the MMO society and several other people tried to copy what he was doing. After the first three weeks Court had created the 100 hubs and was already making a decent income from it compared to the average online MMO newbie. We’re talking THREE WEEKS guys... Read more

Why You Don’t Want to Make Money with Adsense and Affiliate Marketing Simultaneously

Mikael — Tue, 26 May 2009 21:01:55 +0000

If there is one thing that my years online have thought me then it is that if you spread your focus on several things at once you’re not really focusing on anything and everything becomes a blur. How easy do you think it is to hit any target or goal you have set for yourself if your vision is blurred and you’re jumping from one thing to the next and especially if you don’t not much of any of the topics? I can tell you from my own experience that it is not only hard, time consuming and confusing but it can also be extremely frustrating when you feel that you’re working like a horse but nothing (or very very little) is happening and money is not showing up like you expected them to. Multitasking is not the way to start and run a succe... Read more

Why Are You Having Problems Making Money Online?

Mikael — Fri, 22 May 2009 20:20:45 +0000

After writing my report about the things that make people fail at making money online and what I see as the key ways to get out of that vicious spiral I would really like to throw the question out to you my readers. Some of you are probably already making money online and are not struggling like many other online money seekers but I am still guessing that you are not at the level of income that you want to be and I am curious to hear why you believe that is? Is it because you do not have the knowledge that it takes to take your online business to the next level or maybe you have the knowledge but are struggling implementing what you have learned? Maybe you have too much knowledge ad simple can’t figure out which way to turn and as a resul... Read more
