Make Money For Yourself, Not For Your Boss

How do you feel when you wake up in the morning? Do you rise with a sense of excitement and ambition or do you drag yourself out of bed with the groaning knowledge of the tedious day which lies ahead of you at work.

Well I hope that you aren’t unfortunate enough to fall into the latter category but I think that most of us probably fall somewhere in between. Dare I say it, I suspect that too many of us are a little closer to the “I can’t be bothered to go to work” end of the spectrum than we’d like to admit.

So what is the alternative to the daily grind? What is the alternative to dragging your sorry self out of a warm bed on a cold winter morning to go to work for someone who doesn’t really give two hoots about you and pays you a fairly average sort of wage?

Well I don’t want to seem to simplistic about this but the answer is: “Just don’t do it”.

There are many ways to make money in this big old world of ours and exchanging your time for money is just one of them. In fact, that is definitely the hardest way to make money of all, yet the one that 99% of us believe is the only way to do it. Surely you can see that there has to be another way, when you take a step back and think about it. Does Richard Branson work any harder than you to make his profits? Of course not. He took the trouble to set up systems that pay him money for not doing anything.

Do you like the principle of working for someone else? Isn’t it better to be your own boss and get up to do some work when YOU want to? Of course it would, but we would still be exchanging our time for money. Then again, at least you aren’t exchanging your time to make your boss money for a relative pittance of a salary. Never forget that your boss is never going to make you rich.

Have you considered the concept of earning money whilst you sleep?

Have you considered the benefits of taking the trouble to set up a business or investment that makes money for you, for ever and ever, without any further input.

I say that you should.

I say that property investment is one of the best ways to make more money than you could ever do in a regular day job.

You don’t need to be a rich person to get involved in this industry though many people think that you do. I’ll be writing more about this and other related topics in the weeks and months to come. I look forward to seeing you then.
