Advice: Choose. Then, get after it.

Here's the reality.  There are many, good, reasonable ways to make money.  As well, there are many great mentors and systems to follow.  Most lay claim to be plug-and-play... just join and follow the system... what we do is really not all that different.

The point of this post is to simply choose.  Do your homework. Make some assessments about your level of trust in the process, the people, etc... and then jump on whatever horse and ride it at a gallop.

The system is important.  Our differentiator is that we espouse that learning, teaching, relationships, and community are as equally significant variables in managing a successful home business.

All of this is preceded by trust.  Unless we are able to establish a baseline of trust that is earned from providing honest and real information and a plausible path forward, nothing will happen.

Our job is to help people choose us - then, get after it with gusto.  We help people change their lives.  When you get to the point of understanding that this is a noble and worthwhile endeavor, you will be a professional in the home business industry.

BOBO's

Before starting this post, I Googled BOBO simply to see what I would find.  In Filipino, it is a word that means smart or perceptive.  In Spanish, it means dumb or dull.  It is interesting that these are somewhat opposites.  Then, there is Bobo the Clown (also acknowledging Bozo).  In this post, I add my own definition for BOBO. In our business, we specifically target groups of people similar to us.  We refer to this as Affinity Marketing.  I won't dive deep into that here.  However, depending upon the statistics you look at, anywhere between 50% and 80% of people hate what they do for work (and) if hate is too strong a word, let's say they could "take it or leave it" in regard to what they do to earn money in supporting themselves and their families. Of these people, there is a huge "slice" of folks who are Bordering On Burn Out. (BOBO)  They metaphorically "hold their breath" every day and can't wait for their workday to end.  Wednesday is hu

Risk Tolerance

I grew up with the expression, "too poor to pay attention".  This is a kind of tongue-in-cheek expression to describe people burdened by poverty.  Life for many is about survival and getting from month to month.  People in these circumstances are so busy getting through today, that there is no time left to think about tomorrow (their future). The next step up this ladder is people with little to no risk tolerance due to their budgets being so tight that they can't afford to "play around" with any risks.  In other words, they have to pay their bills.  They go to work to make it so.  And this cycle repeats itself over and over and over - in many cases for entire lifetimes. Given this reality, there are really two perspectives as they relate to what we do: These people are simply not a match for what we do.  They are better off keeping on the path they are on because they literally can not afford to take a risk.  What we do is not for everyone, and this is a major

A Retirement Strategy for Late-Starters

I created a niche site named "401Konundrum" with the subtitle "Minding Mismanaged Futures." The goal of this site, much like this post, is to highlight alternative income-generating options that don't rely on lifelong savings, stock market performance, or professional portfolio management—common assumptions about retirement planning. Our Alternative Approach Our approach leverages the same principles of compounding and leverage but in a non-traditional manner. We focus on organizing knowledge, people, and money: Knowledge and People : We teach how to build and manage organizations. Money : We provide an alternative to the traditional "lifetime" savings approach. Traditional vs. Alternative Retirement Models Consider a traditional retirement model where someone has accumulated $1 million in a 401K. Assuming a conservative 6% annuitized return, this yields $60,000 annually—a result of 40 years of savings and growth. In contrast, our model emphasizes high
