First, the good
news.
If you’re like the average
person, earning at least $25,000 a year, then, in your lifetime
over a million dollars will flow through your fingers. That's
a lot of money. In other words, you’re a lifetime millionaire.
Now, for the bad news. If
you're like most people, you'll spend it all, and, after a
lifetime of earning, will end up with almost nothing.
How can that be?
Frankly, nobody teaches us
about money. We receive no formal education in the most critical
of all life skills--how to become financially successful.
Did you ever attend a class in all of your public education
entitled, "Money 101?" Why isn't there such a mandatory
class in every elementary school?
How have you learned what
you know about money? You picked it up, a piece here...a tip
there. You absorbed attitudes from your parents, from the
media. You observed the examples of friends. You proceeded
through trial and error...the school of hard knocks. What
you learned was haphazard, mostly wrong, certainly out of
context. Most of the books you read about the subject probably
overwhelmed you with details or bored you with useless facts.
If you're like most, you're confused and frustrated.
Yet, money is one of the most
important subjects of your entire life. Some of life’s
greatest enjoyments and most of life’s greatest disappointments
stem from your decisions about money. Whether you experience
great peace of mind or constant anxiety will depend on getting
your finances under control. Your relationships will be greatly
affected. 90% of all divorces in our society result from disagreements
about money. Understanding money--how to make it and keep
it-- is absolutely essential to your life, to your relationships,
to your happiness, to your future.
Still, there are some people
who seem to be naturally good at managing money. The same
million dollars flows through their fingers, and, they seem
to know how to keep some it and even make it grow. In some
cases, a hundred fold more than the average person.
Do these people work 100 times
harder? Are they 100 times smarter? Of course not. They just
know how to play the game. You see, money is a game. A very
important game. If you know the rules, you win. If you don't
know the rules, you lose. As someone said,
"Wealth is when small
efforts produce big results.
Poverty is when big efforts
produce small results."
In this book, you will finally
learn how to play the money game...and win. If you follow
these simple strategies, you can retire a multi-millionaire...while
enjoying a banquet of prosperity throughout your life. You
will learn a simple system for controlling your finances.
You will learn how to invest your surplus funds without losing
sleep at night. You will learn how to create multiple streams
of lifetime income. You will learn how to oversee your growing
financial empire on as little as ten minutes a day. You will
learn how to leave a financially secure future to your family
and loved ones.
You may wonder how I qualify
to be your instructor.
I started myself in the seventies,
perhaps just like you, with a dream of becoming financially
independent. After graduating with a Masters Degree in Business
Administration (MBA) from Brigham Young University in 1974,
I began investing in small real estate investments and parlayed
a tiny nest egg into a large multi-million dollar net worth
in a few short years. Along the way, I also suffered my share
of setbacks. I've not only made millions but lost millions...and
made them back again. I know from the school of hard knocks
what works and what doesn't.
I shared my powerful systems
in the #1 New York Times bestseller, Nothing Down: How to
buy Real Estate with little or no money down. This book became
the all time real estate investment classic used by beginning
investors ever since.
I also wrote two other major
bestsellers, the #1 New York Times Bestseller, Creating Wealth,
and The Challenge. In promoting this last book I made the
bold statement:
"Send me to any unemployment
line. Let me select someone who is out of work and discouraged.
In two days time, I'll teach them the secrets of success and
in 90 days they'll be back on their feet with $5,000 cash
in the bank, never to set foot in an unemployment line again!"
The Challenge is the true
story of how I selected 3 people from the unemployment lines
of St. Louis, Missouri and taught them the secrets of financial
success...and, yes, they were able to achieve incredible success
in 90 days. One of the couples went on to earn over $100,000
in the next 12 months. To celebrate, I took them on Good Morning
America with me.
What I am about to share with
you is the result of having worked with thousands of successful
people over two full decades. I have seen people go from living
on the streets to living in mansions...from driving a taxi
to being driven in limousines.
Although my most famous book
is about real estate investing, this book will show you how
to create wealth in many different ways...from multiple sources.
Actually, there are three great wealth creation mountains.
I call them Money Mountains. Each mountain is distinct from
the others, and yet, each share similar characteristics. The
mountains are: the Investment Mountain, the Real Estate Mountain
and the Marketing Mountain.
From this mountain range of
Money Mountains, there are at least 9 separate and distinct
streams of income flowing into your growing reservoir of wealth.
Each stream was carefully chosen using a formula I use call
the Money Tree Formula. In this book, I will teach you the
9 characteristics of the ideal stream of income. Then, I will
teach you exactly how to profit from each of these streams.
The goal is for you to add at least one new stream of income
to your life each year. Eventually, these streams will overflow
your life with prosperity and freedom.
The first question people
usually ask at this point is, "Why Multiple Streams?"
