Any business, whether it is MLM or otherwise requires a commitment of time. The first commitment is to clearly understand what your dreams are. Without a motivation of knowing what you are striving for, you can never be successful. You can't even be successful working for somebody else unless you know what your dreams are and put in place a plan to achieve your dreams. This requires work which means swimming upstream. Any dead fish can swim downstream. Next, if you want to really be wealthy, you have to have a process that can be replicated. If you don't have that, you can never be wealthy. Simply review the cash flow quadrant for the reason why. For those of you in a MLM especially, if the organization does not have a plan that can be replicated easily, run from it. Next, unless there is a spirit of teamwork in your organization, you can never be successful. Never join an organization unless there is a spirit of teamwork, unselfishness and giving to others. Next, you have to believe in the product or service you are selling. If you don't feel it is delivering value for the money, it is difficult to be inspired to sell it. Finally comes hard work and persistence. You have to sort through a lot of people without being discouraged to find the five percent who have a dream and a vision and are willing to work hard as a team.

It amazes me that I've asked repeatedly for members of this group not to post MLM or network marketing opportunities here, but it continues nevertheless.

A "business opportunity" is only an opportunity to earn income under favorable conditions. Those conditions would include market potential, timing, skill sets and other resources.

It does not necessarily ensure or guarantee or ever even remotely conclude that wealth will be generated from the efforts put into the so-called opportunity.

If that was so, there would be more of you who were wealthy based on the numbers of so-called business opportunities I've seen posted.

And although posting business opportunities do have there place, this is not one of them.

This group centers around conversations associated with wealth development, maintenance and expansion on a personal, community or national level.

Please refrain from the temptation of posting your business opportunities in every available white space on this site.

Peace and Blessings,

Lee Green

Three Good Reasons to Own Precious Metals Now

Investment experts have long-recommend portfolio diversification and that 10% to 20% (and sometimes more) of an investor's assets be devoted to tangible assets such as gold, silver and platinum bullion and bullion coins. That's prudent asset diversification strategy at any time. But in today's uncertain political and economic environment, there are many (and very sound) reasons to consider investing in precious metals now. Here are three:

1.
Precious metals have been a solid hedge against a declining U.S. dollar

The value of the U.S. Dollar declined more than 30% from 2001 through 2004, plunging 5% in just a few weeks. For a long list of reasons, including massive increases in U.S. government deficits totaling trillions of dollars, the cost of a prolonged war against terrorism and a massive trade imbalance, this trend may be just the beginning. This means U.S. Dollars could now be worth less and less every day. Which also means that investments pegged to the U.S. Dollar could be worth less and less every day. Gold, silver and platinum, though, are held and traded throughout the world...and their true value (that is, their purchasing power) is not solely or directly dependent on the falling fortunes of the U.S. Dollar. Precious metals, therefore, can be a form of protection against a falling U.S. Dollar. As demonstrated during 2003 and 2004, as the value of the U.S. Dollar declined, gold and silver prices and the value of precious metals expressed in dollars increased.
2.
Precious metals have been a proven safe-haven in times of war, political strife and uncertainty

Today's financial markets are increasingly at risk from terrorism, political instability and war. As we saw so after the 9/11 tragedy, financial markets can be closed down, and remain closed down, for extended periods of time. As terrorism incidents continue to increase around the world, it is not unreasonable to expect further (and potentially more severe) disruptions in financial markets, banking and commerce in the future. Whenever and wherever tension or hostilities break out, people everywhere quite naturally gravitate toward the assets they trust most. And today, even in our high-tech-driven 21st century, the asset class millions rely on in times of trouble is gold and silver. Precious metals have always been, and likely will continue to be, a valued form of "wealth insurance" in good times and bad.
3.
Precious metals can offer outstanding price appreciation and profit potential

After the infamous stock market "bubble" debacle in early 2000 wiped out trillions of dollars of investor equity, the major stock indices have failed to return to anywhere close to their previous highs. Gold and silver prices, on the other hand, have increased dramatically—more than 40%—during that same time period. Which means precious metals can produce impressive investment returns even when (and sometimes, especially when) returns from stock, bond and other paper investments decline in value or evaporate completely. The Monex Atlas Account, a way to purchase precious metals using up to 5-to-1 investment leverage, can be a powerful short-term trading vehicle during periods of rapidly changing precious metals prices. And many financial experts have predicted and continue to forecast rising gold, silver and platinum prices in the months and years ahead.

hello money success is here to stay money success 24/7 2009 lets share our minds

Comment by Hardest Working Woman in Credit on July 30, 2009 at 4:54pm

Despite what you may have heard or read. I'm going to share some helpful tips for you. Contray to what someone may have told you etc.. It is NOT a good idea to get everything in BOTH of your names. Certain accounts like a home yes.. But you must be very careful when planning you finances as a married couple.

Our colleges do not teach us this information. You only find out by making the mistakes after the fact. My mission is to educate you about credit and how it can impact your life. Especially, when it comes to having GOOD CREDIT. If you are young and have not been impacted.. you may want to avoid the following mistakes.. If you have made them. there are ways to attack them and correct them..If you cannot get approved for that house or car, you may want to join my fan club. Also, get the book INNOCENT VICTIMS online at Barnes and Nobles. You can ask me questions and I will help you get on the RIGHT track through my fan club www.creditadviseforyou.ning.com

There are so many tips to avoid and I do not what to overwhelm you with credit Jargon. However, just know that your degree does you no good if you are not prepared for LIFE. You can get a good job and struggle day to day-pay check to paycheck.. even with a college degree.

What do you Avoid?
Avoid creating DEBT together. Do not put everything in your NAME together. This is one of the biggest mistakes couple make. To be honest, I did it at age 18..

The other costly effect of getting everything together is that you could both suffer if the marriage does not work. You both will end up with bad credit, especially if both of you decide not to pay any of your accounts that you got together(while being married).

Make sure you know what your husband/wife may add you too aswell. Know the pros and cons and get in the game of life.. You can survive the game if you know the FACTS.

I'm impressed by the comments made here, especially those of Lee Green. We are on the same wavelength. The collapse of the economy is getting close. We all need to be prepared. Having a years worth of food supply is essential and may be more valuable than gold. Having a garden is essential if you can grow one. Having cash on hand is important, the more the better. Knowing how to stay healthy is vital so everyone should take the time to learn this. Treating all people with love and respect is critical, especially our love ones because it will take a united effort to get through what is coming. Knowing how to build wealth without having a job is critical to your financial health. Basing your actions on faith in God is absolutely necessary in order to get through the coming crisis.

The amount of U.S. dollars in circulation is skyrocketing. What does it mean for you?

It means that money will ultimately be worthless.

Not having much of it in the first-place is already a problem. You've got to do what you can to earn more now. Start your Plan "B" now, or else.
