			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin:0 auto;float:left;padding-right:5px"><img src="http://thm-a04.yimg.com/nimage/fd4a1c3381edf202" width="150" height="120" alt="Why Profits and Not a Paycheck Create Wealth"></div>
<p>The ability of a person to create income that goes beyond his paycheck without him exerting too much work hours is the factor that separates an employee relying on his paycheck alone than an employee who relies on his paycheck but also has managed his regularly received paychecks well in order to create another source of income that doesn&#8217;t rely much on his efforts of working on multiple jobs.</p>
<p>One key factor to consider i<span id="more-1293"></span>s the ability of an employee to maximize his earning potential not by just relying on this regular paychecks received from his work but also on his ability to allot a part of his earnings in investing and generating passive income from them.</p>
<p>One person, an ordinary employee, say working as an applications developer in a globally known software company.  He continuously gets the big projects and eventually rises up the corporate ladder in his company.  As he gets promoted, so does his salary and the perks that go along with it.  Eventually, as his income increases, so does his lifestyle.  He just moved into a bigger apartment, continuously upgrades his PC notebook at home, buys new gadgets and other things that will raise his standard of living.  The story ends though on how he gets the money that supports his standard of living.  It&#8217;s from his income earned from his work as an applications developer.  This is also called earned income.</p>
<p>While any person can expect and wish for an increasing trend in his standard of living, his paycheck will usually remain constant for awhile unless he gets promoted or lands on a new job with a better pay compared to his previous one.  This is the catchy part of making a living and aiming for higher standard of living.  </p>
<p>To say that a person is now able to sustain his aimed standard of living, he should be able to divert some of his earned income from his paycheck to work for him.  When a portion of his earned income is able to earn passive income, the cycle now goes on and on.  Passive income can be defined as income that goes to you which is earned not thru your work within your 8 hour shift but </p>
<p>The question now is how to go beyond the regular paycheck and make some portions of the paycheck work to earn profits for yourself?</p>
<p>The key lies with knowing how to make the earned savings earn in the way of profits.  Once a person is now making his money work to make more money, he&#8217;s now in the process creating profits beyond what his paycheck could deliver.  This is now what we call passive income.  When a person is earning money thru his current savings and investment placements and these sources of income are now able to sustain his current lifestyle or even upgrade to higher standard of living, he is now technically creating wealth for himself.</p>
<p>There are various ways for anybody to make his money work for him.  Common ways of doing this is investing in real estate that appreciates in value, running a business, or by creating investing various financial instruments such as shares of stocks, mutual funds and government or corporate bonds.  </p>
<p>A person with more time can probably run a small business by capitalizing on his earned savings or by partially seeking the help of banks to fund his business by obtaining a loan.  As his business gets more clients and expands, he will able to see the difference running a business provides to him than working for a regular paycheck.  A business, even small in capitalization when run smoothly, will surely attract more business transactions and thus see itself to expanding.  As compared to being dependent solely on a paycheck, running a business, once successful can provide financial independence and wealth creation in the long run.</p>
<p>A person with probably lesser time to monitor and run a business can probably opt first by buying assets that creates income for him.  Buying a real-estate property that can be turned into a commercial center that will generate rental income for him is one way one can capitalize and build wealth on real-estate. Buying a real-estate property at an undervalued prize and seeing potentials on its value to appreciate in the long run is also a good way to capitalize on it.  He can sell the real-estate property once it appreciates in value that the owner sees that it has reached its value potential.</p>
<p>The same is true with investment securities such as shares of stocks, government or corporate bonds, and mutual funds.  The value of these assets once it appreciates provides a realizable income from the initial investment that the buyer shelled out when he bought them.  </p>
<p>Whether it be thru owning and running a business, investing in assets that provide recurring income such as real-estate or by buying investment securities that appreciates in value, this should give a person willing to take the challenge towards financial independence as he expands his capacity to generate income for himself beyond his usual paycheck and probably retire from the employee-paycheck cycle and start on building his wealth.</p>

<p>Everyone wants to be financially secure, but finding the road to that security is a completely different story. Although very seldom is it done, real wealth can be created by putting away money from your 9 to 5 job everyday. The truly wealthy people out there have found many different ways to secure their wealth. But unfortunately, there are many others out there willing to prey upon us all to strip us of our hard earned money w<span id="more-1286"></span>ith get rich quick schemes.</p>
<p>So how can you create wealth these days? Let&#8217;s be upfront, get rich quick schemes just don&#8217;t work. You might find one exception to the rule, even though we know building long term wealth takes time and hard work. Sometimes working hard is not enough, wise investing and working with your money is usually the surest way to create wealth.</p>
<p>Creating wealth with stocks and bonds is wise. Risky investments are around us all the time, but if you do your homework, you can build your portfolio steady and surely over the years. Keep in mind, if you don&#8217;t know what you are doing, leave it up to the professionals. There is much to be said about day trading, but it can also be very risky if you aren&#8217;t educated enough.</p>
<p>Real Estate is also usually a good investment. However, trends in real estate fluctuate so you need to know if the market is prime to purchase. Often people will purchase forclosed homes in disrepair and &#8220;flip&#8221; them by renovating them and selling them in a short time for a profit. Or, rental properties can earn you money to stock away. Be careful when buying in a downward market. It could be tricky to sell again fast, therefore creating a burden of carrying an extra mortgage until it sells. But if you make smart decisions, real estate is a good way to create wealth.</p>
<p>Building an extra income online is one avenue that most people don&#8217;t think of. However, many millionaires are created through network marketing and affiliate marketing programs online. In fact, network marketing is even being taught in some colleges around the country, which shows you how viable it is in creating wealth. Network marketing is now considered a legitimate business model for this century.</p>
<p>Importantly though, we all must remember that if we do not handle our money correctly, wealth cannot be created. Living beyond our means is what most Americans seem to do these days. It&#8217;s nice to splurge for an expensive car, watch, clothes and other material goods. But, with the right counseling and money management, you can spend thriftly and be on your way to creating wealth for retirement when you want.</p>
<p>Remember never to give your money to someone that will make you money over night. As we said in the beginning, get rich quick schemes just don&#8217;t work. It will take hard work and dedication to make sure your hard earned money builds for you.</p>

<p><strong>PREFACE</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>There are certain laws which govern the process of acquiring riches,and once these laws are learned and obeyed by anyone,that person will get rich with mathematical certainty.The ownership of money and property comes as a result of obeying these laws and poverty comes from violating the laws &#8211; no matter how hard the individuals work or how able they are – they  remain poor for violating the laws of acquiring riches.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Whatever may be said in praise of poverty, the fact remains that it is not possible to live a really complete or successful life unless one is rich. No one can rise to his greatest possible height in life unless he has plenty of money.  Everyone needs goods and services in order to live comfortably in the society.  A person cannot live fully in body without good food, comfortable clothing, and warm shelter, and without freedom from excessive toil. Rest and recreation are also necessary to his physical life.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Studying the people who have gotten rich, we find that they are an average lot in all respects, having no greater educational background, talents and abilities than other people have. It is evident that they do not get rich because they possess the best education, talents and abilities that others do not have, but because they happen to adopt a particular lifestyle and they are disciplined enough to do things that poor people don’t do.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It takes work to get rich slowly. No one will take as much interest in your financial future as you will. Never trust anyone who promises to make you rich overnight.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Since there is no perfect e-book and no perfection in any human work, this remains an e-book in progress. If you find errors or points that are unclear, or any point you want me to include, please let me know through my blog:  Perhaps your contributions will make subsequent editions of this e-book richer and better for those who follow behind you.  I welcome your feedback. Because it is published on the Internet, it is easy to add or clarify points.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> <strong>EARNING  MIND-SETS</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Since money is a social resource, earning money means acquiring more of that social resource.  When you spend money, you convert money to value.  But when you earn money, you convert value to money.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One way to earn money is to <strong>sell valuable possessions</strong>.  Take an item that has value and sell it, and you will receive money for it.  Another option is to <strong>acquire items at one price and turn around and sell them for more than your costs</strong>.  Companies dig up resources all over the planet and sell them for a profit.  For individuals this approach might take the form of buying objects, stocks, or bonds at one price and selling them at a higher price.  Sometimes value is added in the process (which may just be added convenience), while other times the money earned comes from market inefficiencies.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Perhaps the most common way to earn money is to <strong>sell your time</strong>.  Get a job and trade hours for money.  The greater your ability to personally deliver a high social value, the greater your earnings potential.  The difference between making $10/hour vs. $100/hour is that the latter work has much greater social value.  This difference is not anyone’s “fault” — the difference is due to the social consensus about the value of certain work.  Note the difference between absolute value and social value.  We all know how much footballers are paid.  They may not perform useful work in an absolute sense, but their compensation is based on the social value of their service, which is currently very high.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Another way to earn money is to <strong>create a system that earns money for you, such as a business</strong>.  This is my personal favorite, since it can provide far more leverage than selling time.  I also find it much less risky in the long run, since owning and controlling a money-generating system is more secure than trading hours for dollars at someone else’s discretion.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You can also earn money by <strong>selling money itself</strong>… <strong>that is, by investing it</strong>.  By loaning your money or assets to someone else, you can earn interest and/or dividends.  How you earn money depends on what you invest in.  Investing in a new business is very different from investing in a criminal organization.  One form of investing creates social value; the other steals it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And of course a final option for making money is to <strong>steal it</strong>.  Historically this has been a popular option, but I won’t give it serious consideration in this work.  If you think about it, there are two basic ways to earn money:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>(1)   Make a social contribution, and receive payment commensurate with   </p>
<p>      the social value of your contribution.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>(2)   Take advantage of market inefficiencies to extract money without contributing any value.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Option (1) includes getting a job, running a business that provides products or services, reselling items with value added, or investing in any of these outlets.  Option (2) includes reselling items without added value, gambling, mooching off others, crime, or investing in any of these.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Here’s another way of labeling these two strategies:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>(i)  Contribute.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>(ii)  Mooch.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Unless you have somehow opted out of the monetary system, you are using one or both of these two strategies right now.  One strategy will likely be dominant in your life — either you are creating genuine social value and being paid for it, or you are mooching off the value created by others. According to the Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary, to mooch means to get money, food, etc from someone else instead of paying for it yourself.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Note that contributing value is essential for the monetary system to survive and thrive, but mooching is not.  The only way moochers can survive is by extracting value from the contributors.  But ultimately someone must contribute, or there can be no value for the moochers to extract.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Incidentally, Ayn Rand wrote a fascinating novel titled <em>Atlas Shrugged.</em> In that book, he imagined what would happen if the world’s contributors left to form their own society, leaving the moochers to fend for themselves.  The contributor society became a paradise, while the moocher society fell to pieces.  Rand suggested that a system that rewarded moochers at the expense of contributors was evil and that contributors should be free to decide how their work is used (and whether or not they will support any moochers).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Some degree of mooching is to be expected.  Children mooch off their parents.  Those who are unable to contribute mooch off those who can.  Whenever we enjoy the fruits of someone else’s labor without paying for it, we are mooching.  We all mooch off the hard work of our ancestors.  But eventually we have to decide whether we are going to continue to mooch for the rest of our lives or begin making a genuine contribution.  Will we remain moochers for life, or will we become contributors?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Obviously your life will include some contribution and some mooching, but what is your primary strategy for generating income today?  Do you contribute social value?  Or do you mooch off the value of other contributors?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Let us look at both possibilities.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>The moocher mindset</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Opting into mooch mode means you are extracting more social value than you are contributing.  Your focus is on getting as opposed to giving, so you take more out of the system than you give back.  The moocher mindset suggests you can always rely on others to pick up your slack.  It is the mindset of unearned entitlement.  Since you still need to extract value such as food, clothing, and shelter — value which others must provide for you – you live at the expense of others.  Your burden may be shouldered by an individual such as a parent, or it may be shared by society at large, but either way you survive by suckling the social teat.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sometimes mooching becomes so habitual it is easy to overlook.  Many people who seemingly have contribution-based careers harbor an underlying moocher mindset.  They aim to extract as much social value as possible while contributing as little as possible.  They work to make money to the degree it is necessary, while mooching as much as they can get away with.  Such people don’t have inspired careers because work is only seen as a means to an end, not an outlet for genuine contribution.  Take a look around and see if you can identify the moochers in your life.  Who is there to get rather than to give?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Another name for the moocher mindset is the scarcity mindset.  Since you are not creating value of your own, the money you extract must come from someone else.  It is a zero-sum game.  Whatever you gain, someone else must lose.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The moocher mindset makes the attainment of financial abundance very difficult because in order to succeed financially with this mindset, you must embrace certain values that most people would consider negative.  Your gain is someone else’s loss, so getting rich requires taking advantage of more people.  In order to gain by mooching, someone else must cover your extraction with real value.  So the more wealth you accumulate, the more you steal from others.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Most people cannot handle the thought of becoming wealthy at the expense of others, so usually the moocher mindset gives rise to self-sabotage instead.  If you fall into this pattern, you will experience a love/hate relationship with money.  On the one hand, you may want more money, but on the other hand, you may feel disinclined to make too much, since you know that the more money you get, the more someone else has to pay for it.  For example, if you make a living as a professional gambler, then you know that the more you earn, the more money others have to lose… not the best motivation for a highly conscious person to achieve financial abundance.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Some people are able to bypass this problem of financial self-sabotage by lowering their consciousness.  They learn to make money without rationally considering the consequences of how they are earning it.  They invent justifications to explain their actions while keeping their conscience from getting in the way.  Ultimately this is the mindset of criminals.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The more you align yourself with the moocher mindset, the more difficult it will be for you to experience financial abundance and remain conscious.  Ultimately you have to choose one or the other:  be conscious or be wealthy.  You cannot have both if you subscribe to the moocher mindset.  If you find yourself stuck at a certain level of income and unable to go any higher, an underlying moocher mindset is probably the culprit.  This is the mindset that leads you to ask, <em>“How can I get more money?”</em> instead of, <em>“How can I contribute more value?”</em>  It is also the mindset that says it is a bad idea to earn more money, since your gain is someone else’s pain.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>The contributor mindset</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Now let us consider the contributor mindset.  This mindset recognizes that the best way to make money is to provide fair value in exchange.  Create genuine social value, and receive payment commensurate with that value.  Due to market inefficiencies, sometimes you will be underpaid, and sometimes you will be overpaid, but the basic idea is that you earn money by contributing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you want to earn income as a contributor, you must contribute social value, not personal value.  Many would-be contributors get stuck on this concept.  Personal value is whatever you say it is — you are free to decide what has value to you personally, and it doesn’t matter if no one agrees with you.  Social value, however, is assigned by social consensus.  If you believe your work has tremendous value, but virtually no one else does, then your work has high personal value but little or no social value.  Here is the key point:  your income depends on the social value of your work, not the personal value.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you want to generate income from creative work, then your work must have social value.  There is no getting around that.  No social value, no income.  If your skills and hard work are not in alignment with the creation of social value, then you will not be able to generate income as a contributor.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This is not an unfair system — it is just how the monetary system works.  Since money is a social resource backed by social value, it makes sense that you would not get paid much for providing something of little or no social value.  The saying “Find a need and fill it” certainly rings true, assuming we are referring to a social need or desire.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Another name for the contributor mindset is the abundance mindset.  This mindset says that wealth can be created from ideas and action.  Your gain is a reflection of the social gain you have contributed.  If you want to earn a high income, you must contribute a lot of social value.  The more social value you create, the more money you can earn.  This is a win-win mindset because you are putting value into the system for the benefit of others.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Under the contributor mindset, you receive money as payment for your social service.  The money you earn is society’s way of saying, “In exchange for your valued contribution, you are hereby granted the right to extract $X of value from society at a time of your choosing.”  This is a beautiful thing!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The only real limit on your income is how much social value you can create.  If you want to earn more money, then develop your skills and talents to facilitate the creation of lots of social value.  The best way to increase your income is to figure out how to deliver more social value.  Focus on giving, and the getting will largely take care of itself.  The systems to reward social service are already in place, so all you need to do is plug your service into the existing marketplace.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Generating income from social contribution is a very positive experience.  Consequently, it would not lower your conscience like the moocher mindset.  With the contributor mindset, wealth and conscience are not in conflict.  In fact, they synergize extremely well, especially if you reinvest some of your income into expanding your contribution.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you adopt the contributor mindset, just be aware that members of the moocher mindset will sometimes mistakenly count you among them.  As you work to increase your social contribution and thereby earn a higher income, moochers will project their values onto you, concluding you have become greedy and must be taking advantage of others for personal gain.  Don’t let moochers dissuade you from your path though.  Let your inspiration come from the desire to provide even more social value.  It would be less honorable to withhold your value just because others misinterpret your motives.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Free contribution</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Under the contributor model, you always have the option of making a contribution for free.  You don’t have to receive the full social value for your work if you don’t want to.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I like having this option because it means I can make my work accessible even to those who cannot afford it.  Money is social credit, so when you decline to receive money for your work, you decline the social credit you have earned.  While it is perfectly fine to decline the social credit you have earned, be sure to consider what you could do with that social credit if you choose to receive it.  Could you re-invest it to make a bigger or better contribution?  If so, then paid work makes more sense than free work, since you can use the money to expand your mission and serve even more people.  Money makes you more of who you already are, so if you are already a contributor, more money can allow you to expand your contribution.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You can also aim for a nice balance between paid work and free work.  It does not have to be either-or.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Making money consciously</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Contributing social value is the primary strategy for making money consciously, but by itself it is still not enough.  The problem with social value is that your personal values won’t perfectly align with the social consensus.  I am sure that if everyone on earth were like you, the demand for certain products and services would shift dramatically.  For example, if everyone were like me, fresh fruits and vegetables would have even higher social value, while cigarettes would have none whatsoever.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>When you attempt to provide social value without achieving congruence with your personal values, your motivation will be very weak.  You would not be inspired because you will be doing what you feel you should do, but not what you want to do.  Alternatively, when you attempt to satisfy your personal values without providing any real social value, you get the starving artist syndrome.  You may be inspired by work that totally fulfills you, but it won’t pay the bills.  Please don’t do this to yourself either.  The solution is to find an area of overlap between your personal values and social values, and work within that area of overlap.  This will allow you to do what you love and create something that others value as well.  Don’t force yourself to choose between your integrity and your income — choose both!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Congruent contribution</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Two simple realizations can help you achieve a congruent mindset about money and push beyond limiting financial beliefs.  First, you must consciously adopt the contributor mindset and abandon the moocher mindset.  And secondly, you must find a way to contribute social value while achieving alignment with your personal values.  Once you have internalized those two mindsets, you will be in a position to generate abundant income while serving the greater good.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>If you want to generate income without lowering your conscience, you have to get your limiting beliefs out of your way.  Holding yourself back from earning more money does not serve anyone.  Limiting your income only limits your contribution.  The conscious reason to earn more money is that you can put those social credits to good use.  Use them to expand your service to others.  If you are living an honorable life, then it is a good thing for you to receive more money.  You will be a good custodian for it.  The more money that flows through your life, the more resources you can invest into your life purpose.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>The Law of Demand and Supply in making money</strong></p>
<p>It is important to note that you can also make money by using and applying  the law of supply and demand to your advantage. Most of us are familiar with the law of supply and demand – the more supply, the cheaper the price; conversely, the rarer the product or service, the more expensive it is. However, we don&#8217;t really apply the law of supply and demand to our own lives – particularly our careers. For example, if you are aspiring to do something that many, many other people want to do (so much so that they do it for free, as a hobby) then it will be far more challenging for you to make money doing it. On the other hand, if you do something that most people don&#8217;t want to do, or if you get very good at doing something most people don&#8217;t do all that well, then you can make a whole lot more money. The starting point is to adopt a positive earning mindset as discussed  in this chapter. When you have the right earning mindset,  you would begin to focus on how to create wealth consciously…..</p>

<p>Creating Wealth #18 &#8211; The Great Inflation Payoff How Real Estate Investors BENEFIT from inflation and how to use leverage prudently to maximize returns and reduce risks.  <H3>Frequently question about property and creating wealth</H3>What happens to the capitalist system when so much of a nation&#039;s wealth is in the hands of so few?<br />That there&#039;s not enough left for the people without to pay their bills, and they begin to default on their debts?</p>
<p>Now, I know all about wealth creation &#8211; I&#039;m an investor, I create wealth myself by allocating capital towards productive uses &#8211; so please don&#039;t patronize me and assume that I don&#039;t. Concentration of wealth can increase at a far greater rate than accumulation, and that can be objectively demonstrated.</p>
<p>To those who think that the distribution of wealth and income are irrelevant, I would ask &#8211; always? Even if one guy has, say, 95% of the total wealth and isn&#039;t spending any of it? Sort of a rhetorical question, as any honest person would have to admit that such an extreme concentration would result in total systematic failure. Kind of like in Monopoly &#8211; one player gets all of the money and property, and the game ends.<br />
&quot;The poor in the US are not doing that bad!&quot;</p>
<p>The problem is the relative distribution, not the absolute standard of living in material terms.</p>
<p>&quot;I doubt you are a serious investor when you make claims like you have.&quot;</p>
<p>Warren Buffett has made virtually identical claims. But I suppose he&#039;s not a serious investor either, eh? QED.<br />
General MacArthur wrote:</p>
<p>&quot;I&#039;m surprised being an investor that you don&#039;t know that 95% holding the wealth and not spending or investing it is very unrealistic.&quot;</p>
<p>It&#039;s an extreme example to illustrate my point. However, the same principle applies to our current situation.</p>
<p>&quot;Men with money invest it. And when they do that creates jobs and growth.&quot;</p>
<p>Only when people are able to buy their stuff. Why do you think businesses aren&#039;t investing now? Because the evil Obama told them not to? No, it&#039;s because no one has any money with which to buy the products of businesses. That the defaults setting off the economic collapse came about as a result of people unable to pay their bills is a tautology. People can&#039;t pay their bills because the wealthy have siphoned off all of the economy&#039;s productivity gains since about 1980 for themselves; consumers compensated by taking on more debt, but that was obviously unsustainable.<br />
&quot;If you&#039;re aware that wealth isn&#039;t finite&quot;</p>
<p>It is necessarily finite. At any given time, there is a finite amount of wealth in an economy, however much that may be. That finite amount can and does grow, but it remains finite.</p>
<p>&quot;how is it that you think this is a problem?&quot;</p>
<p>First, as noted above, that&#039;s a dubious premise. If there was an infinite amount of wealth, it&#039;s distribution would be no irrelevant, but non-existent. It is limited in quantity though; thus, certain groups can monopolize so much of it that the market system ceases to function. You can argue that this isn&#039;t likely to happen, but its theoretical possibility is a tautology.</p>
<p>&quot;Also people do not stay in the same classes of wealth throughout their lifetimes&quot;</p>
<p>I&#039;m asking about the mechanics of the system, not morality or human comfort.</p>
<p>&quot;Even if your hypothetical situation was possible, how long do you think it would be before someone robbed that guy?&quot;</p>
<p>In real-world societies, this does happen. It&#039;s called &quot;revolution.&quot;<br />

<p>Anyone can create wealth and there are 4 main points to consider, there easy to learn and if you implement them, you will create wealth with low risk. </p>
<p>You don&#8217;t need to work long hours and you don&#8217;t need to be innovative, all you need to do is follow the tips below.</p>
<p>So, here are your 4 simple tips to create wealth and an example of how to put them to work for you.</p>
<p>1. You are Responsible </p>
<p>No one else <span id="more-1287"></span>is going to do it for you. You&#8217;re on your own, but that&#8217;s the best way.</p>
<p>In today&#8217;s society we like to consult experts on a wide variety of things, however if you consult an expert on how to create wealth, the only people likely to get rich are them!</p>
<p>Forget, MLM, gambling and finance sure fire systems from a guru, or any other scheme where you pay a few hundred dollars to unlock the door to  unlimited wealth.</p>
<p>They don&#8217;t work. </p>
<p>Wealth creation is all about having some capital and putting it to good use make it grow. We will give you an example of how to do this however for now lets look at the other 3 tips:</p>
<p>2. Working Smart V Working Hard </p>
<p>Lots of people work hard, however hard work does not result in wealth creation and there is no correlation between working hard and making money. </p>
<p>If you want to make money you need to work smart and there&#8217;s a big difference.</p>
<p>Working smart means, spotting an opportunity and using your own judgment in an area that offers you good risk to reward.</p>
<p>3. Understanding compound growth  </p>
<p>Most people are in to much of hurry to create wealth and want to get rich overnight.</p>
<p>Because they are in to much of a hurry, they end up losing their money by taking to much risk.  </p>
<p>Wealth creation does take a bit of time to get started, but once you start making money compound growth  soon kicks in and your money builds exponentially.  </p>
<p>For example.</p>
<p>If you have $30,000 to start, to get to $120,000 will take 3 years (at 100% annual growth ) giving you a profit of $90,000. </p>
<p>However, the next year at the same growth rate you will make $120,000 profit in just one year.</p>
<p>As your nest egg builds your money works for you and grows exponentially.    </p>
<p>The important point  to remember is: </p>
<p>Make your money work for you. </p>
<p>That means taking advantage of compound growth as illustrated above. </p>
<p>4. Understanding risk &#38; reward </p>
<p>Compound growth makes your money work for you as it grows as your profits are re invested. </p>
<p>You must be careful however to keep risk low and NOT lose it.</p>
<p>You need to target: </p>
<p>The highest growth rate to lowest downside risk &#8211; Not the highest growth rate. </p>
<p>For example, if you lose 50% on $100,000 you have $50,000 left. You then have to make a 100% to get back to square one.</p>
<p>Which investment would you rather have?</p>
<p>A. One that has potential growth of 200% with a 80% chance of losing all your funds. </p>
<p>Or: </p>
<p>B. One that has 100% growth potential with a 10% chance you will lose all your funds. </p>
<p>If you have understood the above, you will see the way to create wealth is to pick investment B.</p>
<p>As you create money, compound growth kicks in accelerating your gains. </p>
<p>Balancing  the risk to reward will ensure your money grows swiftly with low downside risk.  </p>
<p>That&#8217;s great, but can you give me an example of a good investment ?</p>
<p>A great investment to create wealth is land. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s cheap, in short supply, has massive growth potential, low risk and finally, it&#8217;s simple to understand and invest in. </p>
<p>Prime land is simply in short supply. </p>
<p>If you buy in booming economies and target land next to growing urbanization or a growing infrastructure, you can sell it on at huge profits once the land is developed. </p>
<p>One of the best locations is just 3 hours direct flight from the USA. </p>
<p>In Costa Rica, Americans are buying beachfront property at up to 70% less than in the US and of course it has to be built on land. </p>
<p>This is yielding profits of up to 100% per annum for savvy land investors buying in the right locations. </p>
<p>Even better downside volatility is very low. </p>
<p>So, if you put the 4 tips to work we have given you above buying land in Costa Rica you could soon see your  money growing quickly with low risk. </p>
<p>Check out this way of creating wealth and you may be glad you did. </p>

<p>When I was at the crossroads of my financial life a few years back, a lot of pathways were recommended to me to turn my life around and start gaining the freedom that I&#8217;ve always wanted. I tried everything at first, but I was also in the marshes of debt. I had run into quite a few commitments that I just couldn&#8217;t cope with. From network marketing to trading in the Forex marketplace, I just couldn&#8217;t do anything about my situation<span id="more-1288"></span> &#8211; taking risks was a risk in itself because I was always anchored by debt.</p>
<p>The issue here was that I, like many people who turn to the internet to eliminate debt, was that I was floundering around not knowing what to do. I needed to be taught, guided and shown exactly what to do. Let&#8217;s admit it, alot of us go onto the internet hoping to make money without a proper model or even a proper idea of what markets to choose, what products to align with or develop, or how to successfully utilise the many communications channels of the internet to get the proper volume to increase profits and make a viable income from the internet.</p>
<p>Many offers tout grandiose plans and sweeping promises. But how many exactly promise to hold your hand and guide you till your efforts bloom into independence? One of the most important things you should learn to develop (as I have realised in all the years I have been making money), is the strategy that you use. Be it in investment property, trading, mortgage marketing and speculation; every method has a sure fire A-Z list of strategies that can maximise your chances of landing a profit most of the time. While there is no 100% guaranteed fool-proof way of making money, you can pretty much stack up the odds on your favour, if you know the proper strategies to adopt.</p>
<p>This is how you can eliminate debt and create wealth from home. What you&#8217;ll need are reliable home-based study programmes that show you exactly how to eliminate debt and start leveraging on the resources at your disposable to make as much money as possible. I mean, affiliate marketing is a great way to generate a large amount of money, but if you have no idea how to do so, no proper structure in place and no strategy to point you towards the pot of gold over the digital rainbow, then you might as well have done nothing to eliminate your debt. Why work hard when you can work smart and if you aren&#8217;t, get smart.</p>
<p>An effective home study programme for wealth creation is the definitive tool that everyone needs in order to get a kick start in making huge amounts of money, eliminate debt and be financially independent &#8211; all from the comfort of your home. Many wealth creation gurus offer crucial how-to&#8217;s on DVD&#8217;s and eBooks which you can study at home. Take my word for it, it can change your life and get you focused and motivated to turn your life around &#8211; with a method that has been proven to works I would have given anything to have such vital information a years ago &#8211; but this is a problem you won&#8217;t have to deal with. There are plenty of legitimate wealth building resources and course that you can pick and choose from on the internet.</p>

<p>www.apartmentwealthmachine.com Lance Edwards is living proof of his mantra that you dont have to graduate from single family to multifamily &#8211; you can start with multifamily. Lance purchased his first deal (a four-plex apartment) in March, 2003 nothing down. Over the next 2 years, he went on to purchase 50 units nothing-down on a part-time basis, while working his full-time corporate job. In July, 2005, Lance retired from his 20 year corporate career to start a full-time real estate business that acquires multifamily properties. And he now teaches others how to create faster financial freedom with apartments using none of their own money. Last year, he purchased 10 unit and 50 unit apartment buildings &#8211; all nothing down. Just recently, he closed a 56 unit property again using none of his own money.  <H3>Frequently question about property and creating wealth</H3>Conservatives, how do fix/counteract the imbalances of wealth created by the abuses of the past&#8230;?<br />&#8230;if not by setting standards to assure the welfare of the general public? (Abuses of the past include: Slavery, Unlawful/Unjust takeover of property through wars/colonization/imperialism/dictatorship/monarchy, Forced Labor/Sweatshops/Child Labor, etc.) All of these things have resulted in the current poverty that exists in the world today and have all been done under the hand of capitalism.<br />

<p>Real Estate has always been a tried and true type of investment that can offer both short and long-term gains, is relatively safe and creates wealth for millions of investors year after year. But, before you purchase a property you must determine if you want to flip the property or rent it out. We all know how the real estate market fluctuates, sometimes we are in a buyer&#8217;s market and sometimes we are in a seller&#8217;s market. What <span id="more-1292"></span>you do with your investment may depend on what is happening in the market and how much you pay for an investment property.</p>
<p>Knowing When to Flip a Property<br />
Buying a property and selling it fast, a.k.a. &#8220;flipping&#8221;, can provide huge profits if done right. The key factors to look at are the purchase price, the condition and location of the property and knowing how to &#8220;comp&#8221; or determine how much comparable properties are selling for (and how fast!). </p>
<p>Generally speaking, if you plan to pay a lot of money for a single unit investment property, your best bet is to turn it around quickly and flip it. Expensive investment property comes with big property tax payments and big mortgages, which usually will rule out any cash flow for renting. Locating renters for higher priced homes can be difficult, and if they miss a rent payment for one or several months your cash flow may not only totally disappear, but you may take a loss.</p>
<p>If you can buy a property at wholesale prices that only requires cosmetic changes, you should be able to flip it for a nice easy profit. Look out for property with major structural problems, a.k.a. a &#8220;money pit&#8221;, especially if the price was priced high to begin with. Before you buy property that needs any major repair be sure to assess not only your financial resources, but also the resources of your work force. Do you already have relationships with different types of contractors and other skilled labor professionals? Just be sure to look at the whole picture before you decide to flip a property.</p>
<p>How to Know When to Rent a Property<br />
If you&#8217;re looking for a nice monthly cash flow and building equality over time, you may want to rent your investment property. Renting is generally a much safer type of real estate investing. The key factors to look at are the price of the home, if the area where you are investing has growth potential, and the condition of the property.</p>
<p>Lower-priced investment property will translate into a lower monthly payment, lower property taxes and lower priced insurance. You can buy several lower priced investments and spread out your risk of both tenants that don&#8217;t pay and buying a property that turns out to be a money pit. Remember, when you&#8217;re renting out a property you are building equity by using your tenant&#8217;s rent money.</p>
<p>You also want to determine if the area where you are investing in is growing. Do you notice a lot of new construction in the area? Do you see new business moving in? Is the location near an urban area, with plans for a new infrastructure? Properties located in growth areas almost always net the largest gains over time.</p>
<p>When you invest in a growth area you can make money flipping a house, but you may be able to make considerably more money if you rent it out, build equity, and sell it for a much higher price at the optimum time. You may not make as much cash-flow in a growth area, but the property value may go up so fast that cash-flow doesn&#8217;t matter.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s Not Just About the Bottom Line<br />
Deciding whether to flip or rent out a property is not easy, assess the market, do the math, and then consider your own interests and abilities. The perfect flip may not be for you if you have no construction or renovation experience, and becoming a landlord may just not be for you period. In the end, it&#8217;s not just about what&#8217;s best for your pocketbook; it&#8217;s what&#8217;s best for you.</p>

<p>Carly Crutchfield takes you into the world of property development in this montage of clips that gives you some quick tools and tips that are priceless, unforgetable and all about creating wealth and achieving the life you want.  <H3>Frequently question about property and creating wealth</H3>Is it true that over the centuries Real Estate created more wealth than any other industry?<br />“The major fortunes in America have been made in land.”</p>
<p>- John D. Rockefeller</p>
<p>“Buy real estate in areas where the path exists…and buy more real estate where there is no path, but you can create your own.”</p>
<p>- David Waronker</p>
<p>“A man complained that [on] his way home to dinner he had every day to pass through that long field of his neighbor’s. I advised him to buy it, and it would never seem long again.”</p>

<p>Buying properties and reselling it a couple of years later for a much better price are a very profitable business. But you should get the property for a low price, only then you can save money and it is profitable. Foreclosures real estate market is a boon for buyers who are on the look out for buying properties cheaply. If you want to make a good deal, and you are looking for a bargain, you should buy <a rel="external nofollow" target="_blank"><span id="more-1101"></span></a>real estate foreclosures, because you can get these properties for a value which is less then the prevailing market value. This way you can save a lot of money and also make good profit when reselling the property.</p>
<p>Foreclosures real estate market is on the increase because many people pledge their property for huge amounts and they find it difficult to repay because of high interest rates.</p>
<p>Benefits of buying real estate foreclosures:</p>
<p>Properties in the foreclosure real estate market are a financial burden to the banks and government agency. So they want to get rid of it as early as possible. This will help you to negotiate and get the property for your price.</p>
<p>In order to close the deal as early as possible, these agencies will help you with the closing cost, so you can save money.</p>
<p>As there is an urgent need for the sale of property, you will also be offered flexibility in the payments.</p>
<p>These properties are sold at a price which is less than the market value. Usually these properties are sold for 20% to 50% less than the market value. So you can purchase a valuable property for a lower price.</p>
<p>Buying real estate foreclosures is a very good investment because the property is sold for half the market value. This is the best way to save money on the purchase of home or property.</p>
<p>Before deciding to buy properties from the foreclosure real estate market you have to do a lot of planning and research. You have to find a property that fits your budget. A thorough study of the property is necessary. You can get information about these properties from the newspapers or notices posted on the property.</p>
<p>You have to know the process of buying foreclosure properties. You can buy the property from the seller or through an auction.</p>
<p>You can make a good deal when you buy the foreclosure property directly from the owner before the bank steps in, because most probably your first offer will be accepted as the owner will be in a need to sell the property immediately. This is a better option than buying a foreclosure property through the auction sale, where you have less time to invest the property thoroughly and also you will have to pay the full payment on the spot.</p>

<h3>Help answer the question about property foreclosure</h3>
<p>How to contact owner of a pre-foreclosure property?<br />
I am trying to buy my first home and am looking at pre-foreclosure properties as an option. I have located a pre-foreclosure approximately one mile from where I currently rent a home. I have begun researching how to go about buying a pre-foreclosure, and I know that my first step is to contact the homeowner by mail. I already have his name. Because I live so close to the property and frequently drive by, I am aware that no one has lived there for some time, and I am concerned that any letter I write would not reach him.</p>
<p>How can I make sure that he receives my letter?</p>
<p>Also, I am not an investor, and I am not represented by anyone&#8230;I am just a young mother looking to acquire my first home at a reasonable price. Does this lessen my chances of being able to make a proposal that would benefit both myself and the homeowner?</p>
<p>Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The recent housing market boom has left many people in homes that they cannot afford with loans that they never should have been granted. This is resulting in a 72% increase in foreclosures from 2005 to 2006 according to recent reports. Foreclosure rates are increasing in 2007 due to lack of home sales and increasing mortgage rates. There is also a jump in the delinquency rate on US home loans. The biggest increase in delinquency is on sub prime <span id="more-1093"></span>mortgages where the current rate is up from 12.56% to 13.33%. FHA loans are also not far behind with a delinquency rate of just over 13.46%</p>
<p>This increase in foreclosures has affected all areas of the housing market: from starter homes to luxury residences. Industry experts believe that there are several reasons for this increase in home loan delinquencies and the increase in foreclosures. Consumer confidence in the current market might make many first time homebuyers, especially couples, take on a larger mortgage that they can afford. If they are unable to make payment due to a loss in employment for one of the partners, they usually lose their home to a foreclosure. Some experts believe that rising energy prices are also putting a strain on household budgets making it difficult for some consumers to make their mortgage payments.</p>
<p>Another important factor is the cooling off the housing market in some areas of the US. With the decrease in the rate of house sales in these areas foreclosure rates are on the rise. A decline in the price of housing also leads to a loss of equity for the homeowner that makes it difficult for him or her to leverage their property in case of difficulty with payments. The states with the highest current foreclosure rates are Michigan, Mississippi and Louisiana.</p>
<p>Foreclosure rates are high among ARM borrowers. ARM or adjustable rate mortgages frequently offer a low introductory interest rate, which is very tempting to potential homebuyers. Once signed on homeowners might experience an increase in their monthly payments due to increases in current interest rates. This might sometimes prove mortgage unaffordable to some homebuyers and lead to the loss of their property in a foreclosure.</p>
<p>The scenario is not one of doom and gloom however. This is a great time for those interested in purchasing foreclosed properties either as their primary homes or as investment properties. Foreclosure sales can allow one to purchase very desirable residences at a fraction of the real value providing one with instant equity and relatively low monthly payments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin:0 auto;float:left;padding-right:5px"><img src="http://thm-a04.yimg.com/image/9e37e08c45f92c1c" alt="Do You Need A Real Estate Agent?" width="250" height="180" /></div>
<p>Real Estate business has seen tremendous growth and so has been the need of Real Estate agent. Today more and more people are getting interested to become home owner and as the demand for real estate need increases the role of Real Estate Agent becomes more important. In the past one agent use to provide services to both seller and buyer but as the real estate market changed people started to realize that specialized service is more logical and b<span id="more-1096"></span>eneficial. In Real Estate industry now buyer/seller are looking for specialized agents who can provide specialized related expertise, information and services required to complete the process. When a real estate agent represents both buyer and seller it really restricts agents to provide impartial service to either party.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s look at the both (Seller/Buyer) scenario separately. A real estate agents who is a listing agent of seller has a fiduciary, ethically and moral duty to represent seller only.</p>
<p>By getting Exclusive Right to Sell Listing, the real estate agent is promising seller that he will live no stone unturned to market the home and find the best buyer at maximum possible market value for the home.</p>
<p>As a Buyer&#8217;s real estate agent he need to find the right home for buyer along with should all information of the community. When a buyer is exploring to buy a real estate property in new community, he is very much interested to find out several information related to that particular community such as population, crime, climate, schools, traffic, living standards etc. Buyer&#8217;s real estate agent should be well informed with all these information so that he can provide that information to buyer. It will be easier for buyer to make the decision based on these information. Once the buyer is ready to buy real estate property in the community then other part of the real estate agent&#8217;s duty starts. As buyer&#8217;s agent it is his responsibility to find a real estate property, as per buyers requirement. It is also buyer&#8217;s real estate agents duty to negotiate the best market price with seller.</p>
<p>So if seller and buyer are represented by their own specialized agent then both agents can play a partial and specialized role for their client..</p>
<p>So it is quite clear that one real estate agent representing both seller and buyer can not justify providing specialized service to both party. Both buyer and seller are in different need of services. That&#8217;s why specialized real estate service has become more in demand where buyer/seller can get impartiality specialized service during the process.</p>
<p>Never before has the role of specialists in the world of real estate been more important. With buyers and sellers requiring more services, the industry has seen an explosion of agents who specialize in either the representation of sellers or buyers. These specialist agents can provide a wealth of services and maintain a complete impartiality during the sales process as there is only one client to concern them.</p>
<p>Historically the sales transaction and the concerns of the buyer were the purview of a single realtor. However, as the industry has progressed so have the needs of each party and so the specialist arose. Buyers have some very particular needs, and specifically the need to feel that their best interests are seen to. Listing agents are representatives of the home&#8217;s owner and in that role they have a primary responsibility to that owner. How could they properly look after the needs of an interested buyer as well?</p>
<p>So what is it that a buyer&#8217;s agent does? Primarily the buyer&#8217;s agent will begin with the location of suitable properties for their clients. This is usually based upon a list of requirements and desires that the client has communicated to the agent. They will then arrange viewings and recap their findings with their clients and assist in deciding upon a good candidate for an offer. This will be based on the wealth of community information that a buyer&#8217;s agent commands. As specialists, they are experts on their given area which is critical in the education of clients on the areas that they are considering. Once a property is decided upon, the buyer&#8217;s agent changes significantly, evolving into an overseer-negotiator role. They will typically coordinate the inspections and conduct the negotiations with the listing agent. This includes the execution of the buyers subjects and the closing of the actual contract.</p>
<p>There is an art to representing a buyer. It is a role that has become ever more crucial in an industry where customer service is the single most important thing that an agent can offer. If you are in the market for a home then the buyer&#8217;s agent is the friend that you need to make sure that you are given the service that you deserve.</p>

<h3>Help answer the question about buying real estate</h3>
<p>How can I calculate the savings (tax break) from buying real estate?<br />
I am told that the interest payments plus the real estate taxes are itemized on Schedule A and deducted from my income.</p>
<p>Are there any calculation tables or programs out there which can figure out my tax bracket and savings?</p>
<p>I would like to figure out how much mortgage and taxes I can afford and I would think that the amount of tax savings should be a major factor.  people tell me how the tax breaks are great, but I would want to calculate exactly what my savings would be just I I would calculate my monthly mortgage payment and property taxes.  It seems to me people don&#8217;t seem to really calculate this before taking the plunge.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="margin:0 auto;float:left;padding-right:5px"><img src="http://thm-a04.yimg.com/image/b52d93138b4e4444" alt="Fort Lauderdale Foreclosures – Risks and How to Avoid Them" width="250" height="180" /></div>
<p>Being a buyer’s market, it’s not wonder that Fort Lauderdale foreclosures are some of the most sought-after properties in the city’s real estate market. Unfortunately like any other city or state in the country, these properties are bundled with several risks and pitfalls. For first-time buyers who are interested in buying an affordable property, foreclosures are probably the most enticing. But the risks and responsibilities exponentially i<span id="more-1099"></span>ncrease for them. In order to avoid falling into a swamp of financial disaster, here are some risks and ways in avoiding them.</p>
<p>Wrong agent</p>
<p>The foremost important part of buying Fort Lauderdale foreclosures is the real estate agent. Without one, you’d end up buying a regrettable property or even nothing at all. It’s crucial to choose an agent that is fairly knowledgeable in the city’s real estate market. Furthermore, you have to make sure that the agent will be truly dedicated in helping you find the property you want and have your best interests at heart.</p>
<p>Foreclosure property</p>
<p>The most common mistake buyers make when buying Fort Lauderdale foreclosures is not inspecting the property. Once you receive notification of the list of available properties to be featured on the auction block and chose the one you think is right for you, it’s your duty to visit the property in person. These properties are oftentimes abandoned by their owners and even stripped of vital fixtures. The bank that owns the property doesn’t normally maintain the home and leave it as is since it’s quite costly to maintain and repair abandoned homes.</p>
<p>Make sure that you see the property in person and look at possible red flags. There is a lot of work to be done with foreclosures and successfully buying one is just the half of it. Clearly assess your current financial health and see whether it can withstand the responsibility of repairing and restoring the home for use.</p>
<p>Financing</p>
<p>When you opt to buy the property at an auction, you should know the terms beforehand. There are two scenarios to expect when it comes to buying auctioned homes. First, you are only required to bring a personal or cashier’s check that will indicate your planned bidding amount. Second, the auction or tax entity/bank will require you and other buyers to come up with a percentage of the total value of the property as deposit. If you a preset deposit amount is needed, you must be able to come up with at least 10%; otherwise you’ll not be able to bid.</p>
<p>Pre-approval</p>
<p>Lastly, the importance of getting pre-approved when buying Fort Lauderdale foreclosures cannot be stressed enough. In order to complete the purchase, winning bidders are typically given four to six weeks as grace period. If you already have a pre-approved mortgage, completing the purchase will be easier; if not, you must ensure to respect the grace period and come up with the money otherwise risk forfeiting your deposit.</p>

<h3>Help answer the question about property foreclosure</h3>
<p>Where do I go to find property tax foreclosure sales?<br />
I just saw John Beck&#8217;s Free &amp; Clear system crap and I was wondering where do I go to find property tax foreclosure sales so I can buy a property for pennies on the dollar, pay the back taxes and hold the title to the property. So where are these sales and what do I do first?</p>
