Is your money working for you? Or are you working for money? One important reason why people struggle financially is because throughout their schooling life they are drilled into thinking taking a job is the best way to earn money. This results in people working for money, trading their precious time to money. Most are so caught up in this paradigm that some never consider a passive income opportunity.
And what is a passive income opportunity? They are simply ways for you to earn money even when you are not doing anything, even when you're asleep. You put in the effort once and you continue to get paid again and again without you having to put in more effort on your part.
An example of a passive income opportunity is you putting in the effort to build a successful online business. It continues to generate income for you as long as your business is running, whether you are there or not.
As Robert Kiyosaki said, passive income is your money working hard FOR more money FOR you.
Taking on a passive income opportunity is the key to financial freedom, but it's important to evaluate them. As we all know "get rich quick" scams are all so common these days, and there are so many out there. It's important to know what to consider so that our time is well spent on a passive income opportunity which will bring us real results in the long run.
Here are the 2 criteria's to evaluate a passive income opportunity.
1. Right Market
One important point to evaluate a passive income opportunity is to make sure that the market is of considerable size and has lots of growth potential. When you have a huge market, there is enough of everyone, and you don't face breakneck competition.
For example, the personal development market is an US$64 billion market. And just how big is 64 billion?
Let's say you have 1 million seconds of free talktime for your mobile phone plan.
Assuming you use the phone 24 hours a day everyday, you will use up your 1 million free second talktime in 11.5 days.
What if your plan gives you 1 billion seconds of free talktime?
You will need 33 YEARS to finish using the talktime!
If it's 64 billion, generations after generations from your family will be able to use your free talktime.
The personal development is one example of a very large piece of cake. You take a knife and make a cut, the residual on the knife itself is A LOT. You do not even have to make a slice! Taking on a passive income opportunity in this market is an excellent way to go.
2. Right Guidance
To make full use of a passive income opportunity and to achieve results quickly, it's imperative to receive the right guidance from people who have already achieve success in building streams of passive income.
If Robert Kiyosaki did not have "Rich Dad" guiding him, do you think he would be able to achieve his current standing today?
I have spent a year and a half trying out passive income opportunities on my own. My first attempt is opening up an online retail store selling wooden toys, but I have no mentor to tell me that wooden toys is a highly competitive arena and my small little online store will be competing against giant online wooden toy malls which buy their supplies in bulk and sell them at prices which I couldn't compete in. I wasted an entire year's worth of effort and money.
Mentors are VERY important in helping you take the right directions and the mistakes to avoid when you take up a passive income opportunity. You will save SO MUCH time and effort when you leverage on your mentor's experience.
Conclusion
From this article, I hope you realize the importance of these 2 criteria's when evaluating a passive income opportunity. Make the right choice, don't waste time and leverage whenever you can. All of us have only 24 hours a day, so spend them wisely.
Kai Wei has found the right Internet-based passive income opportunity. Competing in the $64 billion industry of personal development and having the right mentors and resources to guide him, Kai Wei is very well on the way to building a sustainable stream of passive income.
Kai Wei is also actively looking for team members to take advantage of this passive income opportunity. If you think you are up to it, please visit OnlineSuccessBiz.com [http://www.onlinesuccessbiz.com].
Doing something that benefits someone else is simply the only reason why you or anyone else will make money as human needs are insatiable. We live in a world where constant fear of poverty envelopes our self consciousness, hence the need to generate income. You would agree with me that only one source of income in a place like Nigeria, most populous black Nation in the world, is never enough as our staggering economy cannot be relied upon. We have to create other opportunities to salvage our human wants and replenish the 'scarce' under-utilized resources that are surplus.
As a graduate for more than 5 years, I have come to terms of getting a second career to make ends meet as the government has failed in her responsibility in creating jobs for a growing population work force. Unfortunately, some employers enslaved their employees by paying them peanuts as graduates despite the high cost of living in notably cities like Lagos, Port-Harcourt, Abuja, Enugu, etc in Nigeria as these employees are at the mercy of their bosses for fear of being out of job. However, credit must be given to some Non Governmental Agencies (NGOs) in organizing workshops such as Small Scale and Medium business program for training the unemployed to acquire a skill with assistances from corporate firms. This should be done from time to time as continuity is a key factor to sustain the dream.
Back to my second career, I have developed a niche for myself in investing my time, energy and money in online business. One may think I am talking about the advanced fee fraud (better known as 419) in Nigerian parlance. Far from it, as people involved in it does not have a sustained income and they live in the constant fear of being apprehended by the anti-graft authorities. Perhaps, their worst disadvantage is that they rob themselves of their resourcefulness and the ability to earn money legitimately. Making money online in the legal way not only generates income for you but make you a specialist where your expertise is in demand for a service charge of course. Making money Online is exactly as it is in off line businesses, where you can only get paid by; manufacturing say a drilling machine which benefits a construction company, giving someone a hair cut or by providing a business services that benefits and adds value to another person's life. According to some facts, the total amount of Online transactions in 2008 amounted to about USD $204 billion and is estimated to grow to USD $267 billion in year 2010 (Source: Credit Suisse; World leading Financial Services group). The popular website Yahoo.com which offer you email services for free is worth over USD $34.90 billion. Right now, there are several good things going on around you, but you can never be able to take advantage of them or enjoy them if you do not even know that they exist. These are secrets of life as if you are not informed, you are deformed. A good case is making money on the Internet which I am going to educate you.
Do you know that the popular Search Engine, Google.com is worth $174.83 billion, and it is currently the biggest media company in the world? It is bigger than notables like Time Warner, the company which owns Time Magazine, CNN & America Online; it is bigger than Viacom, the owners of MTV and Paramount Pictures. In fact, Google is worth more than all the companies quoted in the Nigerian Stock Exchange combined! This includes Mobil, OANDO Plc, Guinness Plc Nigerian Breweries Plc, Guaranty Trust Bank and all the other banks quoted combined! A single Google.com share costs more than $450 and it is projected to reach $600 a piece sometime next year - that's more than N50, 000 a piece (compare this to that of say Zenith bank that sold for about N55 - when the going was good.). The owner of NewsCorp, Rupert Murdoch paid $580 million to purchase MySpace.com. Can you also believe MySpace.com is free to use? Some years back, Google paid a whopping $1.65 Billion to acquire YouTube.com. YouTube.com just like MySpace also has nothing for sale too - it is completely free to register and use. The domain name Business.com was sold for a record $7,000,000! In case you have no idea, domain names cost just $8/yr to obtain! Now, why would rich investors put in so much money to acquire websites which have nothing for sale?" Besides, "How are these websites worth so much and how did that much money came about?" Have you wondered why corporate organizations like; The Punchonlineweb.com, Thisdayonline.com, Channelstv.com and even Nairaland.com continue to have strong readership and viewership to their websites? The answers to these questions are the secrets of making money online, and the reasons why the Internet is so overwhelmingly profitable.
The good news is that our dreams in making it big must come from our determination to succeed. You do not need to start big as complex as Google, Yahoo or even Zenox Computers. According to Napoleon Hill "if you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way". What you need is the smart and reasonable way of earning good income in our own 'small' way as a beginner. Let me introduce you to simple and profitable internet business opportunities to start earning money in Nigeria - Beginning today! These I have researched for your benefits despite all the costly mistakes I made in the past to arrive at this point.
Getting started with Google AdSense or AdWords for publishers and advertisers respectively is a Google advertising programme that allow individuals or corporate organizations to promote their products or goods and services to the world through registered websites by engaging website owners to allow for a space to place these adverts (AdWords) on their monetize blog or websites for on-line visitors to view and click on these adverts thereby generating money for both the advertiser and website owners. Google AdWords are those little text boxes that appear to the right side of your search results on Google.com. It is a very efficient advertising system developed by Google. It costs you only $5 dollars to register and you are charged only when someone clicks on your advert. The minimum cost per click is about $0.05 (5 cents). Hence, the Google AdWords is suitable for Companies that wishes to advertise their goods and services. Google AdSense on the other hand is for publishers that promote their ideas or goods and services for the world to patronize from. How do I mean? You learn on how you can make money from Pay Per Click (PPC) advertisements. You are paid each time a visitor visits your website and clicks on any Google AdSense advert you have displayed on your website.
This is not a joke. Remember I told you that Google.com is worth over $100 Billion; well this is one of the ways they make their money. Here they serve as 'agents' between people who want to attract visitors to their websites and people who have advertisement space on their own website. It doesn't matter if what you have is a free website or not. A check would be sent to you when you earn up to $100 monthly.
To get full benefit of this programme highlighted above you must own a Blog or Website as a platform as an individual or corporate organization. As a corporate entity you will definitely showcase your goods and services on net for people to know more about your business, example of such companies are Cadbury Plc, The Guardian Newspapers, Guinness Plc, etc. While that of individuals, you specialize in an area that is unique to you. I mean you can write on anything in your area of interests and get it published online. Gone are those days when we raise huge capital and queue for our books to be edited and get published. Now you can publish a book of more than a thousand pages without spending a dime. And with one of such books online you could be making a fortune by selling it online. I know it may sound difficult sitting down and writing a book but you can also resell some e-book that has reselling rights by buying one of them. There are thousands of written materials already out there with full Resell Rights. A product or material with resell rights means that you can sell the material to other people without it being illegal to do so - as if you actually wrote it! This sounds interesting?
Remember you can write absolutely on anything! You can write on any area where you have specialized knowledge. By specialized knowledge I do not mean designing the latest fast train on earth! There is certainly some knowledge you have that is unique to you which someone else can benefit from. It could be knowledge in; Relationships, Events Management, Fish Farming, Stock Market Investments, Video Games, Mentoring, GSM Repairs, Health Tips, Cooking Recipes, Insurance, Match Making, FOREX, Securing VISA, etc. As you write on your areas of specialization, get it published on line via your website or blog and market it to interested buyers in Compact Discs or any device. I will teach you on how to catch on these market opportunities available to us.
We presently live in very uncertain times now with all sorts of uprising in the nation and very terrible consequences to people who do not adapt quickly.
If you are really aware of what is presently happening in this country today, you will know that you can have a 'secure' job on Monday but by Tuesday you're out of it - irrespective of your position in the establishment. Remember that the CEOs of seven banks have been arrested by the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) following Lamido Sanusi led CBN investigations on these banks and one of them now serving jail term due to misappropriation of bank funds and on non-performing loans given.
Job security today does not lie in working for any 'big, secure' establishment. It lies in your own ability to do something on your own - at any given time. To be financially secure today, you have to adapt to the new nature of things. You have to adapt to The Era of Zero Job Security and the Age of Mega Successful Small businesses.
You will agree with me that Nigeria is still a developing country and unfortunately we are still passing through stages of development despite our 50 Years Independence! Hence, the earlier we sought for a change the better for us and that of our generations unborn.

Have you ever heard the phrase "Don't put all your of eggs in one basket"? Often it's said when discussing investment strategies. Diversify they say. Spread your investments across an array of investment options - stocks, bonds, mutual funds, precious metals, real estate, etc. The idea is that all investments have some level of risk, some higher than others and some more influenced by economic changes and world events. Having a diverse portfolio protects and minimizes the opportunity to lose everything due to one or two worldly events. Well, the same thinking should apply to how you plan your income and where it comes from because, again, you "don't want to put all of your eggs in one basket."
The current recession offers some daily reminders, often personally painful ones, of the affects a single "one basket" income strategy can have. Most Americans rely on the income from a single source - their job. In a recession we, as employees, see jobs disappear. Today, our national unemployment rate is hovering at just below ten percent. Most likely you or someone you know is a victim of this economy.
In a December 2008 USA Today Gallup Poll, 60% of those polled said today's economic situation is the biggest crisis they have faced in their lifetime. The Baby Boomers are headed towards retirement age and these are the years of their highest income-earning potential yet their savings and investments are shrinking AND they're losing their jobs!
So what can you do? DIVERSIFY. . . .now!
Donald Trump has written, "The first thing I learned is when times are tough, you need to hedge your bets - you need to diversify. If you don't do what I did, and diversify your income, you will most likely see your net worth diminish. Worst case, you will lose everything." Diversification of income suggests we consider new creative opportunities for creating new and multiple streams of income. This means exploring new income opportunities to enhance or replacement the single income source of a job.
So what are the options?
- Find a new and/or second job
- Learn a new skill and start a new career
- Create a revenue-generating "product"
- Become entrepreneurial and start your own business
Finding a new and/or second job
Finding another job is easier said than done especially in an economy where 9 - 10 percent of the workforce is out of work. The opportunities are just not there in today's traditional job markets. People tend to be forced into finding anything in order to keep a roof over their heads, the lights on, and food on the table. Second jobs tend to be low paying and difficult to sustain for any period of time. Quality of life goes down significantly. Staying in the "I need to find a job" mindset is not income diversity and it does not give you control of your income source.
Learning a new skill and starting a new career
Our government tends to promote the idea of "re-training" the workforce to be able to enter into new fields of opportunity. While the fundamental idea is good, changing a career or training for a new skill takes time and money. I have not seen a lot of free accelerated education programs being offered! But even if you are successful in going down a new career path, you start at the bottom and still end up with a single source of income. Again, this is not a diversified income strategy.
Creating a revenue-generating "product"
Do you have an idea or knowledge that others would pay for? Have you ever thought of writing a book or holding a seminar to share your knowledge? This is a great way for diversifying income. This ties into the next section in terms of becoming an entrepreneur. The opportunity to pursue "invention", be it a product, service or knowledge is available now more than ever, however most people never put the time or energy in discovering how they may succeed down this path. When attempted as a part-time pursuit, the majority of people won't commit their free time to discover, develop, and engage the process. If fact that is why most of us have said at some time in our lives, "I thought of that years ago" as we witness someone else making money with "our" idea!
Becoming an entrepreneur and starting your own business
An entrepreneur is someone who puts their money to work in order to create income. Buying real estate, investing in a franchise, or starting a network marketing business, are all entrepreneurial actions. In 2003, a Federal Reserve's Survey of Consumer Finances indicated that families with any entrepreneurial activity, that is, those reporting private business ownership or a self-employed status, had median net worth value of more than five times that of families without entrepreneurial activity.
Real estate investing provides two financial opportunities. The first relates to equity gained by selling a property for more than what you bought it for. This is typically a long-term investment strategy, although the last ten years have given a lot of press to the idea of "flipping" houses for quick returns. The second income opportunity through real estate comes from rental properties. Positive cash flow from rental properties is certainly a diversified income strategy. The problem right now with real estate investing is the volatility of the housing market and the instability of the banking (lending) systems. Today it is not easy to buy property, especially investment property. Banks want very high personal credit ratings and significant money down, 20 - 30% or more of purchase price. Unless you are an experienced real estate investor with available cash, real estate as your first choice to diversify your income is not recommended.
Another entrepreneurial venture is the start your own business and work for yourself. Often people pursue a franchised business as a way to do this. Franchises are attractive in that they are "turn-key", meaning the company has already developed the brand, designed the store front, determined the offerings, etc. All you have to do is operate and promote it at a local level within the franchise guidelines. Subway is a popular example. Franchises cost money, sometimes a lot of it. The more successful the chain, the more expensive it will be to buy into. To get into a franchise that has an established brand, you can expect to fork over in excess of fifty thousand dollars. Beyond this initial start up investment realize that you will need to be financially prepared for general business operating expenses such as lease costs, insurance, advertising, payroll, etc. Additionally many of the larger franchisers, like Krispy Kreme Donuts, require past experience that demonstrates business success. No franchiser wants an image of failure.
Limited money and limited-to-no experience can be a deal breaker. But let's say you are successful and get your dream franchise. Now consider this - a large majority of franchise owners end up being the primary workforce of their own business. In other words, you are working for yourself, literally WORKING for yourself. So you got out of your 9-5 job only to replace it with a 24/7 burden. You're trading your time for money and often you end up making less money per hour than you had thought. Work-life balance can become an issue. As far as a diversified income strategy - it's possible, but only if you can separate yourself from the day-to-day operation so you can support your other sources of income.
The final option is perhaps the best option in the current economic landscape - start a network marketing business. Donald Trump writes, "When some industries fail, others take off. For example, when the real estate industry tanked in the early 90's, the network marketing industry exploded. During hard times, people with an entrepreneurial spirit flock to network marketing opportunities." Today, Network Marketing (a.k.a. MLM or Direct Sales) is a very valid multi-billion dollar industry. As an income diversification option, it is perhaps the most viable solution to the majority of people looking to enhance their current and future financial status.
The network marketing industry is one of the fastest growing business models in the world. It has changed quite a bit over the last ten years with it being validated through support from the likes of Robert Kiyosaki (Rich Dad, Poor Dad) and Donald Trump (billionaire entrepreneur). Additionally, some proven well-respected corporate leaders from traditional Corporate America are now heading these companies. One great example is Bill Farley, retired CEO of Fruit of the Loom and recipient of the coveted Horatio Alger Award of Distinguished Americans.
Why is network marketing a good option for diversifying your income? First, it generally requires a low investment for you to start your own independent business. Secondly, the company handles the burden of operating the business, not you. They develop and produce the products and services, they handle the logistics and distribution, and the best companies develop and provide you the tools, education, and support you need to be successful. There are hundreds of network marketing options available today. It is important that any business you engage in, you find one that you have a personal passion or commitment for. Because there are so many options, it is likely that you can find a company that offers a product or service that meets your needs. But chose wisely, not all companies are positioned for long-term growth and success. And take the time to understand the legitimacy of its leadership team and compensation plan. Lastly, you control your personal investment of Time. Network marketing can be worked part time or full time but it does require engagement and some level of effort. The benefit here is that you can get started while you still have your job. Networking Marketing is not a "money for nothing" or "get rich quick" industry but if embraced, it can provide you significant income to enhance your financial outlook.
Diversified income is your path to continued personal and financial growth. Without some diversity in your income source you are living at the risk of having "all of your eggs in one basket." Take control of your financial wellness. Take action today to eliminate your potential of becoming an economic statistic!

Then again, there are opportunities that are worthwhile and will help you make lots of money.
The following top ten high income business opportunities will help you see which opportunities are really worth researching further!
Franchises
Of all the business opportunities out there that offer high income, franchises are one of the best. Proven business models, a popular brand, and a client base make franchises a great way to invest money and start making money in no time.
Affiliate Marketing
Affiliate marketing is a high income business opportunity and not only can you make a lot of money, but it is also really easy! Little risk is involved and all you have to do is work hard and get people to click on your link. This involves selling a product or service, or representing a service or product that people are interested in. You need people to click on your affiliate link and when they do you make money. It is easy and with hard work and dedication it can be a great money maker.
Web Designers
The Internet has really boomed and now every company, big and small, wants their own website. In fact, they need their own website. So, web designers have an amazing opportunity to make a lot of money working from the comfort of their own home and providing a service that is in high demand. Web designers have a very secure job because the Internet is not going anywhere and only more websites will be created each day.
Auction Sites
You can make a lot of money selling on auction sites. With the option to set a price or even let the buyer set the price you will find you can sell a lot of products, used and new, and make a lot of money. Auction sites, particularly eBay, are worthwhile and legitimate high income opportunities.

Investments
Investing in the stock market is a high income opportunity, but it also carries a great deal of risk. Individuals should be well aware of stock trading, risks, and the like before engaging in this type of business. However, if you know what you are doing then investing in the stock market is a high income opportunity.
Real Estate
Buying and selling homes is a high income opportunity. However, buying homes at a low price, fixing them up, and then selling them for substantially more than you paid is the perfect way to make a lot of money.

Owning a website and selling a service or product that is desired by the general population or even a particular niche will allow you to earn big money. Websites are generating billions of dollars each year with more money being spent online each year.
FOREX
Foreign exchange is another high income opportunity and is based on the world's currencies. Paying attention to the markets and knowing when to buy and sell different currencies is a great way to make money.
Importer/Exporter
With the world becoming smaller each day and free trade becoming more popular, importers and exporters are able to make large amounts of money. Reviewing the markets and finding a niche for a product and then importing or exporting it will provide high income.
These are just some of the legitimate high income opportunities out there. Many other opportunities exist, but make sure you research them and know what you are getting yourself into before investing any time or money.

![A Man for All Seasons [VHS]](http://information-plat.info/21VCR01K86LSL500.jpg)
Robert Bolt's successful play was not considered a hot commercial property by Columbia Pictures--a period piece about a moral issue without a star, without even a love story. Perhaps that's why Columbia left director Fred Zinnemann alone to make A Man for All Seasons, as long as he stuck to a relatively small budget. The results took everyone by surprise, as the talky morality play became a box-office hit and collected the top Oscars for 1966. At the play's heart is the standoff between King Henry VIII (Robert Shaw, in young lion form) and Sir Thomas More (Paul Scofield, in an Oscar-winning performance). Henry wants More's official approval of divorce, but More's strict ethical and religious code will not let him waffle. More's rectitude is a source of exasperation to Cardinal Wolsey (Orson Welles in a cameo), who chides, "If you could just see facts flat on without that horrible moral squint." Zinnemann's approach is all simplicity, and indeed the somewhat prosaic staging doesn't create a great deal of cinematic excitement. But the language is worth savoring, and the ethical politics are debated with all the calm and majesty of an absorbing chess game. --Robert Horton Price: $19.98
If you enter the phrase "Internet Marketing" into Google, what happens? You are bombarded with over 130,000,000 results. For a beginner, that is a little too much information to handle all at once. Besides, most of those sites "assume" you already know the wide section of Internet Marketing vocabulary. Let's take a few backward steps and get started in the right direction. I will cover 5 basic methods to boost your income online. You do not need any previous experience online to make a profit. Without further delay, let's get started.
Affiliating
It is estimated that over two billion (2,000,000,000) dollars will be paid out to affiliates in 2010. What is affiliating? Affiliates are people who sell products online for other people known as vendors. The vendors invent a new product, and post it on the web. You then find and sell that product for them, and you both share the profit.
To get started as an affiliate:
Go to ClickBank.com, and sign up for a free account. ClickBank is a huge marketplace of products that vendors have posted for affiliates to sell. I highly recommend it, because all the products are digital (that means no shipping, just simple downloads).
Go to ClickBank's marketplace and find a product dealing with a topic you know a lot about.
Take a good look at the pitch page and make sure it is professional. Ask yourself if it is something you would buy.
If the pitch page and product are legit, create a "hoplink" for the product. A hoplink is a special affiliate link that sends a visitor to the pitch page. If the visitor buys the product from your hoplink, you have made a sale.
Make a website or blog. There are multiple options for promoting your hoplink, but I recommend constructing a website. However, you may want to try other things like emailing the link to your contacts, or posting it on your Facebook page. Anyways, back to the website idea. Create a free website with yola.com, or webs.com. For blogs, use blogger.com. If you want a real domain for your website, use godaddy.com, you will have to pay a small price of about $20 a year.
Fill the website with content and information. This will captivate the visitors of your site and hold them their. If your entire website is a giant sales pitch, do not expect to succeed. Give them their wanted solutions before trying to sell them a product.
Monetize. Now is the time to convert those readers into buyers. Once you are sure your website has all the proper content, make a recommendation to your product and give them your hoplink at the end of content sections.
Drive traffic to your website. This step is the hardest of all. With billions of website floating around in cyberspace, the chances are small the Google is going to find your website. I recommend that you use a process known as "Article Marketing." There are hundreds of article directories out their that are absolutely free, Ezine Articles is the most popular. Submit quality articles to these directories with a link back to your site in the resource box.
Keep driving traffic, and make sales! Earning up to 75% of commissions for each purchase.
Google AdSense
Google AdSense is a free advertising program that places HTML ads on your site or blog. If someone clicks on these ads, you get paid through Google by the sponsors. I recommend using Google AdSense and affiliating for income (affiliating will most likely be your biggest source of profit). Follow these steps to get stared with AdSense:
Go to Google.com/AdSense and sign up for a free account.
Make simple text and image ads and copy the HTML coding to a notepad. Note: Some people will get confused with "channels" when making their ads. This simply deals with tracking your ads, you can skip this step.
Make a website or blog. This is where blogger.com can be very handy when making a blog. AdSense and blogger are both owned by Google, so Google added a simple "monetize" button that easily puts ads between posts and into sidebars. If you have a website, copy the HTML ads over from your notepad.
Assuming you have already created a website to affiliate one, you are now done. If you have not made your website yet, just add content and drive traffic to it, this will finish the AdSense process.
Online Auctions
Are you interested in the general "buy low, sell high" concept? Online auctioners sell bulky amounts of merchandise online. You may also be interested in creating products (like necklaces, bracelets, gloves, etc.) and selling them online.
There are ample online auction sites, but I only recommend one, eBay. I am sure you have heard of eBay, but just in case you haven't it is the worlds biggest online auction center. With that in mind, let's get started as an online auctioner:
Go to eBay.com and make a free account. If you do not have a paypal, go to paypal.com and sign up for that too.
Find a source for your merchandise. You need to have it before you can sell it. Likewise, you could buy off another eBayer, buy cheap stuff from garage sales or local warehouses, or buy materials and create it yourself. Note: Buying broken stuff is extremely cheap, if not free. If you are good at fixing things, take advantage of it and "buy broken for low, sell fixed for high."
Sell. Once you have the merchandise, sell it. Make sure your description describes your product exactly so you do not get negative feedback from buyers. Feedback is a huge deal on eBay, because almost everyone who buys from you will check your feedback before making a purchase. Moreover, higher feedback=more sales.
Simple Jobs
I do not recommend taking up a simple job online. Acquiring a simple job is similar to working for a fast food restaurant offline. The work hours are high, and the pay is low. Plus, there isn't much room for improvement or promotion with simple online jobs. However, if you really want an simple, online job, and think you have no other options, just do the following:
First, pick from a list of online jobs:
Taking online surveys
Reading emails
Clicking on ads.
Creating ads
Typing articles.
Yes they all seem easy, but the pay is low. You can Google each phrase to find more information.
Service Selling
Got any particular skills that could be put to use? Sell them! Well, don't sell your skills, but sell the service you can provide with your talent. The internet is your number one tool for promoting your business and spreading your reputation. Let's get started:
Setup an email. You are going to want multiple ways for your clients to contact you.
Make a website. Blogging really isn't an option for service sellers. Your website for selling a service is going to be vaguely different opposed to affiliating. With affiliating, you need to please your visitors with quality information. With service selling, you just need to convince your visitors to buy your service. Make sure to include descriptions, pictures, multiple ways to contact you, and costing. It is very important that your customer knows exactly what he/she is getting before they have to make the call or email you.
Drive traffic. You will want to concentrate more on offline advertising then on the Net, because you will most likely only be offering your service locally. Concentrate on driving in targeted, in-your-area traffic. Post advertisements to your website on telephone poles, billboards, even on your car! Tell your friends and other acquaintances. As far as online goes, post a local advertisement at craigslist.com.
Enjoy your business!

Network marketing is a new type of home based business where people are making billions of money working from home. They don't drive to their office or they don't even produce the products to sell. They get the products from other company and sell these products to other customers. They make dollars from the commissions they get for their sale.
Network marketing companies can be started by anybody who is willing to start a home based business and put their effort in expanding the business. The first required thing is to register with a parent company by investing a small amount of money. You will then be provided with the product and training materials will tell you what you have to do. You must have the ability to follow the previous success strategy.
Basically you need to buy the products from the parent company fro selling them. Most network marketing companies require you to use the products and sell them with a personalized review. You then need to build your team where each of your prospects may start a network marketing company just like you or just buy your products. When you are able to attract more people into your company, then you are in the right path in making billions of dollars.
If you are able to identify products the people are searching for then you are sure to become a billionaire by staring a network marketing company. You must identify products that are consumable.

How much money, time and energy do you spend each year trying to beat the market?
Don't duck the question. Have you every calculated the expense ratios, trading costs, tax implications, bid-ask spreads, wrap fees, front-end loads, back-end loads, sales commissions, surrender charges, management fees, newsletter subscriptions, magazine subscriptions, books and software purchases, or any of the other direct costs you pay to try and beat the market?
How much time do you spend reading articles, newsletters or books on secret trading strategies or hot market forecasts? Have you ever logged the number of hours you spend watching expert commentators discuss the market, the economy, the Fed, the credit crisis, International economic conditions or any number of other investment related stories of the day?
And how about the hours and energy you personally expend thinking about (or worrying about) all your investment options in an attempt to decide what is the right course of action to achieve your financial goals?
Be honest now, do you have any idea what it costs you each year to try and beat the market?
Professor Kenneth French of Dartmouth has, and the number is staggering. In his paper titled "The Cost of Active Investing", Professor French discovered investors collectively spent $99.2 Billion in 2006 and $100 Billion last year trying to beat the stock market.
$100 Billion! A mind-blowing number.
We're not talking about making any money. $100 Billion was the amount of hard earned savings investors in the U.S. stock market spent trying to achieve superior returns as compared to simply investing in a passive index that, by definition, provides investors with market returns.
I know your next question. Was it worth it? Did investors get what they paid for?
You know what the answer is, but will you embrace it?
On both fronts the answer for the average investor is a resounding no!
No, the $100 Billion did not buy the average investor superior returns. DALBAR, Inc. found the average investor underperformed the S&P 500 by an annual average of 7.33% from 1988 to 2007.
No, the average investor will continue to spend ludicrous amounts of money, time and energy attempting to beat the market. The $100 Billion spent to beat the market in 2007 dwarfs the $7 Billion investors spent in 1980.
What about you? Do you want to be average and continue to spend and worry your way through another year of unfulfilled promises and expensive lessons delivered on the silver platter of your broker or insurance agent's broken business model of investing? Have you run your numbers and compared your costs, your risks and your performance to the appropriate benchmarks to calculate if you are winning or losing the race to fully fund your retirement and outlive your money?
The longer you wait, the more dearly it may cost you. Professor French argues investing in today's market is not a zero-sum game. The definition of a zero-sum game is an equal amount of winners and losers. If there were no costs involved, the highly competitive and free market capitalism of the U.S. stock market would be a zero-sum game. But when you start the game by shelling out $100 Billion a year to actively pursue winners you immediately make investing a negative-sum game resulting in even more losers.
And the more you spend and the harder you fight to win, your chances of winning become even smaller. Why? Because the pool is getting smaller and costs (and risks) are increasing each year. Professor French calculated that the percent of money invested in index funds has more than doubled since 1986, totaling 17.9 percent of the market. The pool of investors who remain actively spending their savings, time and energy tying to beat the market is shrinking, meaning each one personally bears more of the costs and more of the risks in an every increasing negative-sum game.
Not a pretty picture, especially with your retirement and financial well-being on the line.
So what should you do?
It all comes back to asset allocation and pursuing an investment strategy designed to meet your return objectives, time horizon and reward vs. risk comfort zone.
Do not pay for a bunch of "really great mutual funds" or lots of hot, sector specific stocks, commodities and ETFs under the premise of diversification. Do not waste your precious time and resources trying to forecast markets, uncover hidden gems or bet on potential "ten baggers" by acting on hot stock tips.
Learn how markets work or trust the hard work to someone who does. You, or your financial advisor, must understand modern portfolio theory, structured asset class allocation, the Fama/French 3-factor model, efficient market hypothesis, risk analysis, regression analysis and portfolio optimization.
You want to insure your portfolio is ideally designed for both the market and for your specific circumstances. It must embrace modern financial asset class allocation models and reject active management to insure you maximize your return potential and your value.
Any portfolio containing an actively managed "house" fund or any actively managed mutual funds with front-end sales loads (A shares), back-end sales loads (B shares), high expense ratios (your portfolio totals should be under 0.45%), annuities or management fees exceeding 1.0% is one you should carefully and critically examine to insure you understand your impediments to long-term returns, your risks and just how much of your money is transferring out of your pocket and into the pocket of your sales representative.
You bear the costs. You bear the risks. Isn't it time you truly achieve your rewards in your pursuit of Peaceful Wealth?

Since most people would like to have the means to create the most lucrative lifestyle for themselves, they often spend their time just fantasizing about a silver spoon that might just show up on their doorstep one day. This is one of the reasons that so many people are suckered into the typical "income from home scam" - they are essentially hoping to win some sort of lottery. The typical online income scam will be littered with assurances of instant monetary gains and promises of a dream job at home that you only have to work at for ten minutes per day!
Most online income scams show up in the form of extremely high paying easy jobs, or investment offers to companies that do not even exist. Since the recent fall of the economy more and more people are trying to find ways to earn additional income online, and unfortunately, the way some people choose to do that is through scamming people online. So... how can you identify and avoid online income scams?
One common trait of the typical "income from home scam" is that it will promise you the same income that you could make full-time while working only ten minutes a day at home. If you find an offer like this, it is extremely important to check the details of the job listing and see if it contains legitimate requirements. The job details should list a clear description of what is required, and it should contain an actual job. It should not magically offer you an exorbitant amount of money for doing something that a six-year-old could do.
The "income from home scam" entices people by associating itself with high-ranking companies - ones that most people would trust, like Microsoft, Google, or others. The con artists creating these scams know that most people would not bother to check if the partnership actually exists as long as they promise people a high enough income. You should always be smart and spend a couple minutes checking and confirming any promises that the income opportunity offers. Look up the official website of the company that the offer claims to be associated with and see if there is an actual legitimate connection. For example, if you find an offer associated with an MLM company, make sure that the parent MLM company is a rock solid program that has been running for many years... not one that is at the risk of failing at any point in time.
Investment offers to companies that do not exist are another common way for scammers to steal your money. They will create "profit-sharing" websites that say they will do millions and billions of sales in advertisement and give you a share of that profit as long as you buy "stock" in their company. The problem with that is most of these companies are just lying to you. There is no parent company that does millions and billions of sales each day. Once they have sold all of their "stock" they will simply shut down the website and take your money. This is one of the most common income from home scams that you will find. If you find an offer like this, you should always run the program name through a search engine and see if it comes up on any scam report sites. Also, the tried and true rule applies here, more than ever - "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."
Fake dream jobs and faulty investment offers are among the top ways that most people are scammed online. Most people are overworked and tired, and thus easy prey to a legitimate sounding offer of $10,000 per month while doing an extremely easy job for ten minutes a day. An offer to get in on the ground floor of a "profit-sharing" advertisement company sounds like an unbeatable offer to the naive person looking for an honest way to work from home. The only way to avoid the classic "income from home scam" is by doing your own due-diligence on each opportunity that you are thinking about joining. However, knowing some of the distinctive schemes as presented here will hopefully give you some insight and allow you to invest your hard-earned money into successful ventures.

Have you ever looked for an internet income opportunity? Have you ever wanted to be your own boss and work from home? I know I had thought about that many times, but I was like "most common working men" and I was tied up working an 8 to 5 job. My thoughts were only a dream, like so many others dreams. But, that was about to change for me.
In the summer of 2008, I was out of a job. The economy was going downhill. Nobody was hiring. Things looked pretty bleak. When the plant that I was working at as a senior operations manager decided to shutdown, I was not that distressed about it. After all, I had two college degrees and I had been a senior manager for 20 years. I would be able to find another job - I thought. But, I was wrong! Nobody was responding to my resume. No income. I had to find something.
That's when I read an article written by an internet marketer named Jeff Johnson. Jeff is the owner of a network marketing internet business. He said that "most people dream about working from home, but most never take the action to actually make that happen". Online internet marketing from home is possible for anyone to do. All you have to do is learn the ropes".
I thought about what Jeff had said. I was not sure exactly what this internet income opportunity was, so I decided to do some internet research. I found out that billions of dollars are spent on the internet buying everyday used items and that the market was growing rapidly. Did you know that in 2006, $95 billion worth of products were sold on the internet? That figure went up to $175 billion in 2007. It was estimated that the number would reach $267 billion in 2008 and the forecast for 2009 was $400 billion. That's huge growth! Maybe, I thought, this was a possibility.
On my own, I started studying online internet marketing. I did hundreds of Google searches. I read about pay-per-click advertising. On my next click, I was reading about social bookmarking. Next, it was SEO optimization. Article advertising. Article submission. Blogging. Google AdSense. Then, back to pay-per-click. There was so much to learn that it was overwhelming. And, there was no structure -nothing to follow. After three months, and still no income, I decided to go in another direction. I invested a small amount of money in an online marketing course called ProfitLance.com.
The ProfitLance.com course was just what I needed. It provided a structure for learning this internet income opportunity. The course starts with the basics and builds upon that until you have a firm understanding of the subject. I studied many different areas of internet marketing including pay-per-click advertising, writing sales copy, Google AdSense, traffic generation, affiliate marketing, SEO optimization and a number of others. Profit Lance is a library of information dedicated to online internet marketing.
It took me two months to completely study the entire Profit Lance course. But, I didn't wait until I finished the course to try my hand at online marketing. I made my first sale four days after purchasing ProfitLance.com. I made enough money off that one sale to pay for the entire course. And, after that, my income continued to grow.
I am a firm believer in that "the more you learn the more you earn". So, having finished Profit Lance, I started looking around for something else to help me add to my knowledge. In one of the forums that I had been visiting (work-at-home-forum.com) I had seen favorable information about another course called the Wealthy Affiliate. I visited the site, liked what I saw, and invested in it with hopes of increasing my internet income opportunity.
The Wealthy Affiliate is an online marketing course that provides much of the same information as ProfitLance.com except that there is greater detail. That's why I like it. The Wealthy Affiliate also has its own online forum and that is a big help. Whereas the ProfitLance.com course is a one time buy, the Wealthy Affiliate has a monthly service charge. They are constantly adding to and updating the Wealthy Affiliate. Since I believe in "the more you learn the more you earn", paying a small monthly fee is not a problem since my business continues to grow.
It has been 15 months now and I am achieving that which I once thought was only a dream. I am running my own online internet marketing business. I am working out of my own home office, I am my own boss, and I work the hours that I want to work. If I want to, I can do this job from anywhere in the world. And, you too can find your own dream. My strongest advice is not to think that you can do it by yourself! Find someone or something to help you learn the "ropes". There is a lot to learn. There are a lot of "secrets to this game".
Now, go choose your own internet income opportunity.

Do you know who has occupied the front-seat and has been driving the show in a multi-million dollar Internet enabled home based business Industry today? You may or may not be fully aware of it. This is; no other than the 'knowledge' itself, yes, only the "knowledge"- a highly pervasive and much talked about subject since time immemorial.
Although, knowledge subject itself is so vast that it is virtually considered limitless for its no foreseeable definite end. And the treasure of knowledge has been consistently keep growing from generations as with the progress of human society on this earth planet. That's why it is generally being said that everything under the sun is knowledge.
But here I talk about the focused and targeted knowledge and expertise of any area of human concern, to whom people desperately need and like to get it, and to whom people love to accept and feel great satisfaction in using it, especially, the knowledge which helps solve people's problem they face in their day-to-day life.
It may cover a variety of topics like education, lifestyle, health & happiness, fitness training, computer training, business, travel, you name it. You may soon realize that the given list is not an exhaustive one, as there is even no end of topics available to cover fully under the ambit of knowledge. You may choose any area you like in which you keep expertise, especially, those topics that are useful and draw people's attention and interests in particular.
With that in mind, here on your opportunity lies to cash-in by disseminating your knowledge expertise to rest of the world. Today you're not restricted to sell your expertise in your own country alone but to all over the world through the internet. You've now not only the possible vast clientele from around the Globe but also, good competitive international pay-rates you may negotiate, to sell your knowledge.
The best index to measure online income opportunity is to assess the involvement and use of your own efforts and expertise in the system, offered to you on paid basis. If the system demands 100% your time and expertise, then system is genuine and you've cent percent chances of earning online through the given opportunity. Some of such areas are content writing, web-design, software-development, site-administration, data entry, online teachings, language translation jobs, Tele-marketing etc. These areas require your 100% time and expertise, wherein your compensation for the work you complete, often based on the duration of time and efforts you put in finishing that work.
Today's society is really owe too much, and must heartily thank, to Sir Tim Berner Lee, the founder of world wide web, who gave the most powerful Information & Communication technology (ICT) platform vis-à-vis Internet to the world community.
This powerful yet most economical medium of communication has forced the entire business community across the world to re-write their business policies compatible to this all new environment and that could make them able to exploit its full benefits for improving their businesses' bottom lines.
And, it seems, over the period of time, Internet enabled online income opportunities, including those available in organized sectors under the control of big corporate houses for outsourcing jobs, especially, in BPO, KPO and call-centers domain, may become one of the biggest level players of the time on economic-front, not only for the economies of developing countries but also, for the economies of under-developed countries, percolating the spill-over-benefits from the developed countries like UK, USA, Japan and others.
This is a positive signal to take advantage of internet technology for the benefit of world's population which is over 6.50 billions i.e. 650 Carores now, and where over a billion of them have access to internet connectivity all the time, according to the recently published data from an international survey firm.
As with every positive thing, some negative things undesirably pop up and follow along, if internet has brought such a big revolution of the century to help grow businesses, then some fraudsters, in the name of online income opportunity, try to sell you fake programs, alluring and promising you to join their programs for earning a quick money without virtually doing anything. Whenever you encounter any of such online opportunities for earning, you should simply avoid them. This is the best way to spot which one is genuine opportunity and which one is not.

8/30/08 On The Eve!
As our politician's race around frantically trying to save the economy from the checks and balances of the free enterprise system, one can only wonder when we become a socialistic state. A State If I Might Be So Bold...You Know...Like Cuba, Crazy isn't it that a few bad loans can literally destroy the largest economy on the face of the earth.
And even stranger that in the face of the largest public outcry in the history of America, the finest Politicians Money Can Buy are Grimly determined to pass this most sweeping and comprehensive Bail Out of Big Money in The History of the World? American Manufacturing Job's at an all time low percentage of the work force. An Economy Supported By Nothing More Than The Value of It's Stock Portfolios! Wall Street not Main Street has become the Mantra of the Land, leaving middle class Americans wondering why there 30,000 a year incomes are being taped to pay the Multi-Million Dollar Golden Parachutes Of The Very CEO's that caused the problem in the first place. Greed, Corruption, Power and you guessed it, lobbyists Greasing The Political Wheels Of Progress are at the very cause of these issues.
A System rotten from the top down, one where Corporate profits have been surged every time an Americans job has been outsourced overseas, manufacturing job shipped to China or replaced or displaced by Cheap Foreign labor allowed to Slip Unnoticed into our country! All with tax Breaks To Company's Encouraged By Our Political Leaders to do so! "THE SKY IS FALLING...THE SKY IS FALLING"!
This culture of fear threatening us with the loss of our jobs, homes and retirements,
has been heard on main stream media demanding we support this future enslavement of our children and grand children.
STOP THE MADNESS!
Fact: a recent survey has indicated that there is less than a hundred billion in foreclosed or delinquent sub prime and prime loans! So Why the 700 Billion Dollar plan? Gosh...Couldn't we buy everyone of these mortgages out and let the people live in their homes until sold allowing us to actually recover something of value And...Do Some Thing For The People Who Need It Most?
OF COURSE WE COULD!
But.....Wall Street Needs The Bail Out! Wall Street Not Main Street...Remember!
But The Banks Aren't Going To lend Money You Might Say...The Collapsing Credit Markets? My Presidential Candidate Said So!
Guess What....If The Banks Don't Lend Money They Don't Make Any Money! However....If They Wait A while...They Can Charge You More Out Of Despiration!
AH HA! Just Like in 1929 the federal reserve and the banks limited the money supply getting exactly what they wanted. Lot's of properties at cut rate prices and the ability to charge what ever they wanted. Oooops! Did I Say That? I must have heard this some where.
Question? How Much Money Do You Have In The market? How Much Money Do You Have In Your Retirement Plans At Work? What's To Guarantee that 1 cent of that 700 Billion will be available to guarantee Your Assets? I recently was at a break fest meeting with a gentleman who lost his entire retirement when his fortune 500 company bit the dust! Who Bailed Him Out...No One!
Why Do You Think The Politicians are Rushing This Through During A Cloak Of Darkness? Is it For You Benefit? I Wonder...Don't you?
It's not the bad mortgage loans that are the problem...Only a small percentage of the delinquent loans are/were sub prime. The Majority are Prime or good credit loans where middle class American husbands and wife's both working can no longer make enough to pay their mortgage after losing their good jobs to outsourcing, cheap foreign labor, and a seeming indifference by Big Business and Politicians to their plight. Our Current Political Candidates talk a good story, but you didn't hear any protests when Mc Cains Wife...You Know The One With The Beer Distributorship...Found She Stood To make Big Bucks When Her Business Was Bought Out By A Foreign Company.
FREE TRADE IS NOT FAIR TRADE!
Ops...Not Again!
Shouldn't American Political Leaders And Big Business Employ The Same Predatory Practices That Japan And China Have Used To Suck Us Dry?
Of Course They, Should, Could Would...But Then Again There are Those Lobbyists And All Those Political Contribution And Then Those Bottom Line Tax Credits.
Americans....I Can Only Say!`
"Stop The Madness"
Do You Realize How Absurd It Is That Our Politicians Spend Weeks Trying To Determine if a retired ball player took performance enhancing steroids but Rush To Pass a 700 Billion Dollar Bail Out Of Wall Street! Not main Street...Make No Mistake...THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU!
It's Simply One More Golden Parachute For Big Business.
It's What They Don't Tell You That Will Hurt You!

Work from home income is one of the most thought about topic in today's world. Many individuals have either lost their job or are in a current one that they feel like they are walking on egg shells around the office. Many people are finding they are short on cash for their monthly expenses, future vacations or retirement and wonder if they work from home can it help. Unfortunately the world that we live in today is if you do have a job or career you are taking on extra hours or responsibilities to impress the boss that probably doesn't even know your name.
Consider the following
Consider the following work from home income opportunities:
Child care provider
While you may think this is a fancy name for a "babysitter", well yes it can be. Look at it this way, many people are taking night jobs because that is all they can obtain. Many single parents don't have the ability to obtain a live in service or have family that can help. You could still continue your 9-5 job but provide childcare from 11-7. The best part is that the child is sleeping 80 percent of the time and so are you. Or you could provide weekend or special event childcare on days like St. Patrick's Day, New Years Eve or any type of celebration.
Freelance typing, writing or editing
Many companies now want a competitive advantage over their competitors so they have started outsourcing. Outsourcing for companies saves them time and money and it provides them with professional content or services to give their clients. You have the ability to search out outsourcing companies and look to find out if they are in need of additional writers or editors. This works well for the person that has a very limited schedule; one thing you will find though is that the pay varies dramatically. I would suggest as with any opportunity that you do your due diligence.
Cleaning Houses
While many of us are not real keen on this idea, myself included. This is primarily for one reason; we don't like to clean, so why start a business that is based around cleaning? Any work from home income opportunity you start, you have got to make sure that it is something you enjoy. If you enjoy cleaning, this is right up your alley because just by cleaning a couple houses a week you could potentially make 500.00 a month. While normal houses could take three hours to do a good cleaning, you would just have to figure out if you wanted to charge by the house or by the hour.
A Virtual Assistant
Many of us have heard this term before but really what is a virtual assistant and can you be one? A Virtual Assistant is someone who provides professional administrative, technical or creative assistance to clients from a home office. A good example is being a receptionist from your home for a small business like a broker or a consultation firm. Another example would be if a small business needed a monthly newsletter sent out, you could do this from home and send it back to the company as a pdf.
Online Auctions
Online auctions are becoming quite popular since you can be on numerous auction sites at once from the comfort of your own home. How this could be a work from home income opportunity is actually quite simple; the legendary buy low and sell high principle. You may come across an opportunity to buy a bulk of specialty tools from a company that is filing bankruptcy. With this amazing opportunity you could obtain these for pennies on the dollar, and then resell on the other sites or locally. While this process can be very time consuming it can be a very lucrative opportunity for the individual that knows his or her products.
How will you get the word out?
While many of these examples are good work from home income opportunities you need to think of a couple things:
Branding - branding is you, branding is getting who you are out in the world. Branding is a name, a sign, symbol, slogan or anything that is used to identify and distinguish a specific product, service or business. As a business owner you have got to build "you" as a brand so you may stand out in the crowd.
Marketing - this is my favorite, as this is what I help people to learn. Marketing is the wide range of activities involved in making sure that you're continuing to meet the needs of your customers and getting value in return. Without marketing consider yourself a store front with no sign outside above the door and everyone keeps walking by because they don't know who you are, what you do or that you even exist.
Name this marketing campaign
One of the best known marketing campaigns in history started in 1988 that had an ad agency called Wieden and Kennedy and a small group of other employees from another company brainstorming. In ten years due to this marketing campaign this company was able to increase its market share from 18 percent to 43 percent, from 877 million in sales to 9.2 billion.
If you guessed Nike and the marketing campaign "Just Do It" you are a marketing guru that knows your marketing history. While everyone may not like the brand Nike, you have got to respect the marketing campaign and the results it provided.
In closing, there are many work from home income opportunities available to everyone and anyone. Your responsibility is to find one that you are passionate about and do something every day that will drive your business. Just remember that marketing is the fuel you will need to drive it. Without knowledge on how to market your business or service you can almost count on failing, check out my website to learn more about marketing.

Most Americans are aware that the US government owes a lot of money - over $14 Trillion and counting - and that the US Budget Deficit is expected to reach a record high this year - about $1.5 Trillion. Unfortunately, many Americans have not heard of another deficit that threatens the future quality of life, standard of living, peace of mind, and dignity of almost every future retiree out there as well as their extended family: the $6.6 Trillion Retirement Income Deficit.
The above figure comes from a recent study commissioned by Retirement USA and conducted by the respected non-partisan Center for Retirement Research at Boston College. In its simplest terms, the Retirement Income Deficit is defined as the difference "between the pensions and retirement savings that American households have today and what they should have today to maintain their standard of living."
This is certainly grim news for most Americans, and though the amount of the deficit seems astronomical, the actual deficit may actually be higher than estimated for several reasons. One reason is that the estimate assumes people will continue to work, save, and accumulate additional pension and Social Security benefits until they retire at age 65. With many people retiring well before they turn 65, the amount of retirement savings they would actually accumulate would be less than the figure assumed in the study. This means that the income shortfall would be higher than estimated.
Another assumption the study makes is that retirees will spend down all their wealth in retirement, including all of the equity they have in their homes. In reality, not everyone will convert their entire savings into annuities, nor would everyone enter into a reverse mortgage in order to annuitize their equity in their homes. Consequently, the income shortfall would be greater than estimated. Other expenditures not figured into the study are potential out of pocket medical and long term care expenses that retirees may incur as they age. Last year, it was estimated that the cost (national average) of a private room nursing home was over $70,000 a year. These, no doubt, would compound the income shortfall.
Even if the Retirement Income Deficit were only $6.6 Trillion, it is hard to see, and unrealistic to expect that government would make up for this deficit in its entirety by increasing social security benefits. Already, the government has announced that the Social Security Administration would incur a deficit of $45 Billion this year, with the total reaching $600 Billion over the next 10 years. Consequently, congress is already exploring making changes to our social security system such as raising taxes, reducing benefits, or both.
It is also difficult to imagine that the corporate sector would come to our rescue. Do you think that corporations would change course and start providing more traditional pensions or defined benefit plans? Alternatively, would they suddenly feel more altruistic and increase their matching contributions to 401(k)s or other defined contribution plans?
At the end of the day, this burden of this $6.6 Trillion Retirement Income Deficit will fall squarely upon the shoulders of every future retiree out there, and to some extent, their extended family. Future retirees would either have to retire with a much lower quality of life and standard of living than they had previously imagined, continue to work either part time or full time into their retirement years to support themselves, or have to significantly increase their current retirement savings in order to ensure that they can still retire with the kind of lifestyle they would like to have.
This is a new reality. And if we are aware of it, accept it, and act on it by assuming responsibility for our own retirement, there is every reason to believe that we will be able to have the financial peace of mind we all deserve during our golden years.

E-Lottery is already well known as the smarter way to play some of the world's biggest and richest lotteries, with hundreds of thousands of members in different countries and millions paid out in winnings. But E-lottery is also a smarter way to make money, allowing you to generate a lottery income.
Since 2002, thousands of E-Lottery affiliates have been making a lottery income part-time and full-time by finding other people interested in playing the lottery online.
As you read this article you will discover how you can start generating a lottery income too.
The one key question you should ask when looking at any business is 'what is the market potential?' In E-Lottery's case the answer is that 22million people play the UK National Lottery games - almost half the UK adult population - and in the process they spend £5 billion every year. Yet, only 1% of all tickets are sold online. This means that E-Lottery affiliates wanting to earn a lottery income are perfectly positioned to attract the untapped 99% majority as they come online to play in ever increasing numbers. What's more, the operators of the UK lottery report that in the current financial climate people are actually spending more on the lottery, not less.
However, your market isn't restricted to just the UK. E-Lottery has already attracted more than 200,000 members from 133 different countries around the world.
So what is it that E-Lottery can offer this market? Put simply, professionally organised online syndicates with a system that guarantees to increase your chances of sharing jackpots and other cash prizes in the UK national lottery, Euromillions, Spanish lottery and El Gordo (the biggest lottery in the world) draws.
How can I generate a lottery income with E-Lottery?
Affiliates can make anything from a small part-time income to a substantial full-time income, the potential is unlimited. To date E-Lottery has paid out literally millions in commissions. To start generating a lottery income for yourself all you need to do is drive visitors to your own E-Lottery affiliate website which is created and set-up for you when you join and let the site do the selling. The more visitors you get, the more you profit. Every time someone joins the E-Lottery system through your website, you get 20% commission on their subscription and you continue to receive this commission for as long as the player subscribes, giving you a residual lottery income. If you choose to play in a syndicate yourself like most members do, once you have introduced a few players your commission can completely cover your subscription, effectively giving you the increased chances of winning a prize every week but at a 100% discount. You can also earn 5% override commission on all subscriptions generated by people you have referred.
So what does it cost and what's the catch?
Affiliate membership is absolutely free and the only catch is a little time and effort required to learn how to best use the system. Training and support are available from the training section of the back office on your affiliate website, the E-Lottery support centre and from the person who referred you.
So, with nothing to pay and no risk, why wait?
Get started today and begin earning a lottery income for yourself.

Smart Blonde is one of the largest factory-direct distributors of novelty aluminum signs and license plates in the U.S. and we are manufacturers too. Every item we carry is of the utmost highest quality aluminum metal because we believe it absolutely matters! We have compared plastic and the super heavy weight steel (3 lbs each) signs and license plates as well as the very ultra thin lightweight aluminum embossed and non-embossed signs. Our conclusion was simple: Plastic was really just ok steel was way too heavy to ship and stock and the ultra lightweight aluminum... well they just bend like a piece of paper.

The internet has evolved a lot since it has begun. The internet was a good source of information for all but now it is offering a lot more services. It allows anyone to generate income through the use of the internet. People may choose between two types of income that the internet is offering. The first one is active income where people have to work online to get paid and passive income which requires people to work once and get paid repeatedly. If you are employed and don't have time to work to earn active income, you can choose among different ways to generate a passive income that will help you earn more money.
Affiliate Marketing
Even if you don't have your own product or service to offer, you can still generate income through referring potential buyers through your website. This is called Affiliate Marketing which allows you to earn 25%-75% of sold item or service through your website.
Have your Own Membership Site
This is one of the best ways to generate income. You can create an interesting website for which people pay a fee in order to become a member and have access to the site. Examples of these are membership sites for dating, for stock market strategies, for internet marketing, for travel, for fitness, etc.
E-book and Information Products
The key here is to come up with special knowledge that you have or you can obtain that other people are willing to pay for. This information can be in form of ebook, videos and courses.
Blog to Earn
Most of us are wondering, how can we possibly generate income from blogging? The term "blog" came about as a contraction of the words "web log" and came to be called a "blog" for short. Because blogs are updated more frequently than static websites they tend to generate more traffic. Through blogging, you can promote related affiliated products. You can even sell your own product or service on your blog. Some bloggers sells space for advertisement on their blog site.
eBay
There are many people who use eBay as a full time business. It's just like having the functionality of a physical storefront without all of the overhead. The great advantage of using eBay is that your product can be viewed 24/7 which makes a big potential to sold your product faster.

If this is something you are interested in, begin by finding a network marketing product that you are passionate about. Research the company and make sure they have integrity and an excellent commission structure.
Squidoo Lenses
Squidoo lenses allow regular people who aren't internet experts to create mini sites called "lenses". You can monetize these lenses in a number of ways such as advertising, promoting affiliate products, promoting books from Amazon to eBay and so forth. Having multiple lenses with high traffic allows you to generate income.
Google AdSense
All you need to have is a blog or a website. In order to become successful with Google AdSense, you need to drive more traffic on your site and sign up for Google AdSense where they will be placing ad text on your website. When your website visitor click on these ads, that will be the time you will earn money.
Website for Sale
Buying a website in a low price and selling it higher is the basic principle of this strategy. All you have to do is to drive more traffic on it and add some more features that can increase its value. To give you an idea, YouTube was sold for $1.65 billion dollars, MySpace was sold for $580 million dollars, and HotJobs was sold for $485 million dollars.
Google AdWords
There are many Google AdWords strategies and the gurus all have different systems as to how to succeed with Google AdWords. The key is to learn as much as you can and take the time to actually read Google's advertising policies and tutorials.
