The need for people to find additional sources of income is VERY great. Depending on a "regular" job for a secure future is dangerous to say the least. I was once a full-time college professor and because I was at the high end of the university's pay scale, I was simply "let go" because a younger professor could take my position for a much lower salary. That's the world we live in.
A home-based network marketing income stream provides us with a measure of control in that we decide if we will work the business or not. If we do, then gradually over time we can, and likely will, build a significant and comfortable recurring income.
Passive or residual income is income that does not require our direct effort to create it. We are all familiar with the concept of exchanging time for money. We work for an hour and we receive a wage for that hour. If we don't work then we don't earn. This is called linear income or active income.
Network marketing begins as active income in that we are looking to find customers and also to train others to do the same. Over time, as people continue to order the products, we receive compensation on those continual orders. We no longer have active involvement in those sales. At that point we just receive passive income. The more people we add, the more passive income we earn.
This can lead to financial freedom.
I remember listening to a CD recorded by Robert Kyosaki (of Rich Dad Poor Dad fame) about 10 years ago on why he started his passive income businesses. He said that it came down to one simple truth. He said that truth was: That statement alone struck a deep nerve within me. I heard it right after I had been let go from my position as a university professor. It took many years to earn the PhD. that qualified me to become a professor. I had been a dedicated professor for 12 years.
I was upset to say the least. All my colleagues were encouraging me to apply at other schools. But I had decided that I would never let that happen to me again. So I listened to Kyosaki with great interest!
Kyosaki went on to talk about the corporate structure and how he saw people come and go, get looked over for promotions, get down-sized, get replaced, and so on. He was in the corporate world for quite a while and excelled as a salesman. In fact, he was the #1 salesman in his company. But when it came time to promote someone to the position of sales manager, he was looked over because he hadn't earned an MBA. That's when he decided to quit and never go back.
It's that kind of unfairness and harsh reality of the corporate world that leads people to heavy drinking, depression, and wishing for better opportunities.
When I was unjustly let go from my teaching position I discovered that the path to freedom from such nonsense is through being in business for myself.
I now take my teaching skills and use them to train people through an online avenue my nephew and I created (see it here). I also own and operate a growing carpet and floor cleaning business (want to see my website? Click here).
Both of these businesses had very little startup costs. Both allow me to live life on my terms and not someone else's.
I have also recently jumped into the network marketing world. I am just getting started but I know that since the need is great, I can grow this business and add even more income.
How about you? What's your story?
Obviously you are reading this because there's something about network marketing that has grabbed your attention.
Perhaps you are already involved with a company and are looking for training and tips that will lead to success.
Maybe you're open to the business but haven't decided which company to work with. Obviously, I'd welcome you to my team.
Whatever the case may be. THE NEED IS GREAT!
Thanks for reading.

P.S. I am currently deep into the initial growth stage of “Project Next.” I am looking for people to join me in this project. A health and wellness company that has been amazingly successful in Europe is now focused on growing in the American market. The opportunity is HUGE! So much of my time is now reserved for my expanding project team. I am currently looking for 3 people who want to work from home and be a part of something new and exciting. If you are currently dissatisfied with your bigger picture progress in life and would like to learn how the project may help you move forward, send me an email and we can arrange a time to talk. boomertalkinghealth@gmail.com
P.S.S. Want to detox, rid yourself of extra body fat, and change the entire trajectory of your health in a 21-day window? If that sounds at all appealing, shoot me an email (boomertalkinghealth@gmail.com)and I’ll share a very unique and effective program that has been massively successful in Europe over the past seven years. I’ll send you a program guide that will allow you to learn the details, and a link where you can move forward if you choose to. As an aside, this program will require some discipline:-) but it’s a lot easier than what I do every day of my life!
