Hey Bob,
thanks for your comments on this subject... I love the way you explain the general realities of human behavior.... those who don't know what options are out there, is so amazingly valid, and yes indeed make uninformed and rash decisions based on hype and speculation.... how perfect of an explaination... uninformed being the operative word here.... we make our decisions based on how we feel or what we believe.... hype and speculation is what most of us focus on in the first place, due to the fact that it takes real consceious effort to get past the shallow end of most hooks that are out there....
wow, what is your business? How could I contribute to it?

I started my business because one cannot even exist on social security & I am 86 years young--too old to go out & work. I am miserable. I am a giver & I cannot give because I just don't have it to give. A man from the Indian council just called--I cannot send them a check. This is very painful. I could blame our government for this terrible economy but that wouldn't help. I want an income so that I can take care of myself & others won't need to. It makes me feel so good to give.
Mary

I started my business because I love the art and entertaining people. I one day want to put people to work.

I want open doors for my family for employment and leave a legacy for my son and daughter.

I got into the business that I'm in now to help everyone who wants to take advantage of a free health care benefit be able to take advantage of it. I give away a free health care benefit that does not cost the user any premiums or fees of any kind. When they use the benefit they can save up to 75% off. This is huge folks.

Take any discount membership card....I was part of myworld plus...they offered savings at an untold number of stores...big name stores....however I had to pay 19.99 a month to be able to save at those stores...

Anothe example I'll throw out there.,...sams club...they require you to pay a fee...to be able to get discounts...

The Free Health Care Benefit I give away costs you zero...nada...elzilcho....and whe you use it you save up to 75% off....most users save between 20%-75%....and when they use the benefit, and obtain the savings...I get paid....

So I had to slap myself when I stumbled across this....yes its for real....I'm not in Kansas with a dog named toto. So I asked my self this question how many cards can I give away! I cant give these cards away fast enough! Did you know that there are about 50 million in the us without any type of health care benefit? That figure bounces depending where you get you data ...but non the less its a huge number of people.

So many folks are jumping on this its just ridiculous! I get folks who just want to save money on health care and then I get folks who want to save money on health care and want to make money then I get those who just want to make money...either way this business provides real value for for everyone.

You'll have to e-mail me and request more info if you're interested.

I work for total financial freedom for my family and future generations...

All the best Rich Ward

Because as a mortgage broker, 80% of our clients began to run into major credit issues, therefore causing our company to have a great deal of difficulty trying to handle their loans. Inevitably, we had more customers making use of our credit repair, and educations services than we were doing loans. Along with that we saw the change in people, all the way across the board, as they became educated consumers, able to manage themselves better in regards to their personal & business finances. I do it now because of the difference it makes in the lives of many!

I started my business to help people acquire freedom, from debt, and to have money to sufficiently operate their business! The lack of money, will keep people down and keep them from reaching their God given potential. The credit I am able to get for people, does not require a personal guarantor, or a good fico. The rates are reasonable and they get some freedom to move forward!

When I graduated from college my husband insisted that I got a hobby (with my extra time from not working 3 jobs and going to school full time). I have always been anti hobbies because I dislike the idea of throwing money into a hole on projects that (even though I enjoy doing them) would not bring any money in. As a result I decided to make my hobby into a business, and I LOVE it!

Knowing that life is a journey, I am enjoying the business process along the way and am thankful that the Lord has given me this opportunity. I work to bring income to my family, I work to show my gratefulness to the Lord, and I work to challenge myself on a daily basis!

I started my non-profit because I saw the need for single mothers to be educated in financial resources. As a single mother, I was very unaware of finances, how to spend, how to save. I started educating myself about 10 years ago in and realized there are so many mothers that are in bad situations not because they want to be but because they lack knowledge to get out. It is not a business, it's a passion that has turned into a lifestyle. It was time for me GIVE BACK.

I started Hard Hitterz Incorporated simply because I am surrounded by musical talent. My goal is to help those artists that are dedicated and determined to succeed. That is why Hard Hitterz is in existence today. And that is to provide up and coming artists with a lifeline to achieve their dreams.

Why did I start my business?
We started our business because it was a natural progression. Media has been a big part of our lives since we all meet in college. Our product DIRadioCast happened by accident but has proven to be one of the best investments we ever made.

What do you work for?
Personally I (Africa Allah) am inspired by my passion and commitment to music, media and the arts. I love that I can transform ideas into reality. My goal is to influence change, and improve standards by offering affordable creative solutions that will leave a Distinctive Impression.

Hi everyone we started our businesses (we believe in multiple streams of income and giving a choice for partners) to give us Freedom of choice. Freedom to be able to choose where we went on holidays freedom to give as much as we wanted to our families and to community organizations. Freedom to choose how many hours a week we work and to be able to work together. Freedom to choose where we work from home or beside the pool while away on vacations.

The other reason we decided to become internet marketers is because we want to take total responsibility for our financial security. In today's financial climate a large number of new millionaires will be born and there is no reason you or I can not be one of them. The only reason this will be guaranteed not to happen is if we take no action at all. So action is what the not secret ingredient is and massive action is even more powerful. In other words if you continue to do the same things day after day then you can not expect to have any changes in your life.

Another thing that motivates both of us is our honest desire to empower as many people as possible to achieve their desires and become financially independent and be able to fulfill their dreams and desires both for their families and themselves.

The one thing we are passionate about is coaching and mentoring and this is really our desire to achieve and the vehicle to allow this to manifest is the businesses we are choosing to personally use and promote.

If you would like to sample our team training drop us a line and we will arrange this for you. Your success in business is directly linked to the team you choose to be around.

Blessings Jenny and Ian
