Let’s have a little fun and find out what most people seeking home business opportunities are really looking for.
Go out and find twenty people and ask them the following question…
“What would you most like to do, if you could do anything you wanted, right now?”
It’s an intriguing question and most people can think of something right off the top of their head.
The odds are pretty good that whatever they come up with will one way or another require one or both of the following:
1. More Time
2. More Money
I’m betting that 80% or more of the people you ask will name something that requires more time, more money, or (often) both.
Some typical responses might be…
“I would love to visit Europe, I have dreamed of going there for years.” (requires money and time)
“I would retire and spend more time with my family.” (definitely requires time and often more money)
“I would go overseas and volunteer to help build schools and churches in impoverished countries….” (time and money required)
“I would quit my job and expand my woodworking hobby into a business…” (requires more money)
Money and time may not be the only important things in life, but consider this famous quote:
“Money isn’t everything… but it ranks right up there with oxygen.”
– Zig Ziglar
Really, almost everyone at some point in life desires more time or money. And, many will strive to do something about it. One of the more common ways to meet this desire is looking for a higher paying job. Others will seek home business opportunities to generate additional income.
We run into a problem, though…
In most cases, to get more money, you have to put in more time working at something. So…you actually give up some of your valuable time in the process of gaining more income. Doesn’t make things work out as desired, does it?
The answer to this dilemma is…work smarter, not harder!
Work hard but figure out how to get income coming in that isn’t strictly a trade of hours for pay.
Here are a few things that let you do that…
1. Real Estate Investing
2. Playing the Stock Market
3. Internet/Network Marketing
There are other ways but these are three of the more familiar methods. The first two require a significant investment of money, a good bit of education and savvy, and some luck as well.
The third option…Internet/Network Marketing…works differently. This option allows you to create a significant residual income without a huge investment. The knowledge you need is readily provided and the learning curve is lots shorter than with other options.
Residual income = income that keeps on coming in from work you do one time. This is the concept that allows artists to make money over and over from music they produce, long after they recorded it in the studio.
The Internet has changed our world and has really unlocked a real opportunity for those who desire to start an online business to gain more TIME and MONEY.
If you are one of the 80% that is looking for more time and money…the time to get something going with an online business is now!

Hello Mr. Eldon,
Well, the learning curve in internet marketing is shorter, indeed. However, it is not so short at all.
But, I agree with you. It is better and easier than real estate and stock market. And safer, too.
In my opinion, 2014 will be a very good year that will bring a lot of opportunities to the table. More and more people start online and dream of success. They will need a lot of information, products, services and this is a huge opportunity. “How to make money online” becomes once again one of the hottest niche. And we must prepare ourselves for this new situation.
Have a wonderful day
