How Do You Trade Your Time?

All of us have the same 24 hours to spend everyday. Some of us trade 8-12 of those hours working for wages. I don't think that's wise for several reasons:


  • You get paid only 1 time for your efforts
  • Working for wages doesn't afford you any extra time to do what you enjoy.
  • You are paid with currency which loses value over time. Currency is not real money.
  • If for any reason you can't work, you don't get paid
  • There is a limit to your hourly value, and that limit is generally determined by someone else.

Instead, trade as much of your time as you can building assets. Here's why I think that's wise:

  • You get paid over and over again for your efforts
  • The more assets you build the more time you will have to do what you enjoy.
  • Assets continually throw off cash over time. You may spend that cash immediately, or use it to acquire more assets.
  • Whether you work or not, assets will continue to work on your behalf.
  • Assets leverage your hourly value, and that value will grow over time. You determine how high.

And that, in a nutshell is why assets will make you wealthy, while wages never will.

Become an Unstoppable Affiliate

Niche websites can be a great way to generate a steady flow of passive income. But, they can be hard to get started if you don't know what you're doing, plus it's even harder to figure out how to get the search engines to send your site traffic.

I bought the Unstoppable Affiliate Course when it first came out and I was quite please with the quality of the materials in the course. It helped me to refine my focus and my results considerably.

Sadly, there have been numerous courses I've purchased and read once (or stopped reading halfway through), and then relegated them to a virtual waste bin. It's a shame that there are people out there throwing anything together and calling it a product. That was NOT the case with Unstoppable Affiliate.

There was little to no fluff at all in the videos and they didn't spam me at all which was an added bonus in my book.

Click the graphic above and watch the video. (I know it starts out like a lot of other affiliate marketing pitches do, but stick with it!)

This will be a course you will be glad you ordered. It's pure content and well worth the small investment of your time.

Publish on Amazon

Why not publish your own ebook on Amazon? It's not hard to do. Well...it's hard to do right. But lots of people are having tremendous success.

Whether you are interested in writing fiction, how to, or history, publishing on Amazon can be quick and quite profitable. The problem is there are a few right ways to go about publishing your work, and a whole lot of wrong ways!

Just throwing a book up--even if it's a really good book--falls under the fallacy of "if you build it they will come".

There are several good sources to put you onto the path of success (and I recommend you look into more than one).

For starters there's ePublish by Steve Weber, which is just chock full of information and has gotten great reviews. (You can click on the image here to see it).





Another good one is "How To Make, Market, and Sell eBooks" by Jason Matthews
