Money is the worst thing to save

Today I watch a video by Robert Kiyosaki (below) which I really think you should watch.

I know that I have been banging on about this for a long time, but the more we realise that money is an illusion with no real value, the better prepared we can be to become truly free and wealthy.

You see when you realise that money has no real value, then you start to save assets that do have value instead of believing the illusion. Why do you think that the banks look to secure the money they lend against assets? Simply because the money has not value without the assets attached!

So when you borrow money against your home, a car, jewellery etc, you are creating the value in the money. Isn't it better therefore to accumulate the assets instead of the money?

Ways to do this are to buy assets that are attached to real "money" things like gold, silver, platinum, property etc.

One thing to bare in mind is that the Swiss Franc is currently still on the gold standard, so a Swiss Franc bank account wouldn't be a bad idea.

Watch this video and let me know your thoughts.

The Ultimate Success System

About 5 years ago I went on 3 different time management workshops, all of which recommended completely different methods of “managing time”. Each had some good point and each had bits missing. I also reviewed a number of goal setting books and workshops I had been on, again they were all similar, but also each had bits missing.

As I studied these systems and read loads of book I realised that the bits that were missing in each of the systems were different. Also several of them had parts to the plan that we completely unnecessary.

This kind of explained to me why I had failed to achieve so many of the goals I had set over the previous years. I knew in that moment that I had all the knowledge I needed to set goals and achieve them, just that it was spread across multiple sources.

I then set about distilling down the best information and creating a system that would ensure that the goals are achieve.

It worked! I started achieving every goal I set, I decided on the goal, broke it down and then planned my activities to ensure the goal could only succeed and be realised.

I then set goals I thought would be the right goals to set and sure enough I got them every time. Then I started to understand a saying I had heard so many times: “I climbed the ladder of success only to find it was leaning against the wrong wall.”

Something had to change, I was “Successful” and yet I was unhappy. Then I was sent a goal setting process that changed the way I looked at my life and the goals I had been setting and realised that happiness is something that must come into every goal setting exercise, without it you are achieving things but slowly dying inside.

Then I created a new goal setting system that included all aspects of my life, not just work and the traditional ideas of “Success”. I also included the concept of happy outcomes instead of goals, with the most important emphasis on the question why?

Now the entire process is complete and the happy outcomes are so amazing that you cannot fail to realise your dreams.

Take a look at this outstanding system and make your life one of true success instead of frustration.

Definitely a system worth trying

What is the key to massive financial success?

One of the biggest questions most people ask is what can I do to make loads of money on the Internet? And it is a question that many “gurus” charge vast amounts of money giving the answer. But the simple truth is that the answer to that question can be found everywhere you look.

Look in your own town at the businesses that make the most money, the ones that have the most customers and you will see that the secret to the success is in selling small items that people really want for a small price. This is the principle that has made Wal-Mart the largest supermarket chain and why cheap shops have the most customers.

When I saw this I realised why so many newbie internet marketers are struggling and why I had been frustrated by small conversion rates on my sites. I had sites with great products, I just couldn't get the conversion rate up above about 3%. Then I discovered a simple principle:

“Make the price a no-brainer”

The idea is to set the price at a level where everyone buys and no one is disappointed. This means that you have a conversion rate close to 100%, how does that convert into real world money?

Imagine you had a product you were selling at $27 and you were converting at 3%, you would earn $81 for every 100 visitor. Now imagine you change the price to $7 and you conversion rate goes up to 50%. Now you are making $350 for every 100 visitors. So you see the value of that site has now gone up 432%!!! and nothing has changed except that the price is cheaper.

But what is the right price?

The best way to find the right price is to experiment, try different prices and see what results you get. But there are a couple of things that you should consider:
Any price in double figures prompts the question “do I need this?” which can scupper your sale immediately.
Any price below $5, tends to be dismissed as not worth it.
There is a psychological acceptance of prices ending in a 7, so a price tag of $7 would seem to be the best place to start. But as I said before, test your own product and see what happens.

To see an example of how this works, take a look at this "mini-site"

The principle is so simple, and yet we can see how effective it is throughout the world.

Is Michael Jackson Really Dead?

I was shocked and amazed to hear that Michael Jackson had died, it seemed so incredible that someone who is just about to make a comeback would drop dead 2 weeks before the first concert. So I asked myself a couple of questions!

What was Michael Jackson's life really like?

What is the outcome of his death?

And the answers I got made me think of Elvis Presley and his "death". You see, Michael Jackson was clearly a very unhappy and trouble man. Anyone who reads the press about him or reads about the type of life he had cannot help but feel that his life was far from what most people would really want. And in the last few years his emotional problems had become increasingly public.

But it is not just his emotional problems that have hit the headlines, his financial problems have also been well publicised as he spent massive amounts of money on his "Neverland" range and oddball lifestyle; all taking him into massive debt and a clearly unhappy life. No, he did not have a happy life, certainly not one that most people would want. He had money problems, his time was not his own and he lacked simple freedom in his life - the three things that all humans need to some degree in order to feel a minimum of happiness.

So what is the outcome of his death?

Well in recent months there has been a massive upsurge in interest in Michael Jackson because of his massive sell-out comeback concerts in the O2 arena in London. The press has been full of it, radio and TV stations have massively pumped it up, to the point where tickets were being resold for hundreds of times there face value. Expectation was rising, people were talking constantly, sales of his music had gone through the roof. Money was pouring in to his banks and the banks of the promoters and all concerned with the concerts. But was Jacko up to the challenge of the 50 concerts? Could he do it again having been off stage for so long? Or was this just a set-up? Did Michael Jackson really die in his LA home on the 25th of June as we are being told?

If he was doing a massive comeback tour, then it is almost certain that his life has recently been insured for massive amounts of money to cover any losses by the promoters and everyone else involved in the comeback. I am sure Michael Jackson has recently probable increased his own life insurance recently in light of his upcoming tour.

How much money will his estate make in the coming months from the global upsurge in his music sales, the covers of his songs that are bound to be released by other artists and the insurance pay-outs that will happen?

Has Lisa-Marie's ex-husband followed her father? It has long been speculated that her father Elvis Presley did not die as reported but instead sought to start a new life out of the lime-light, could Michael Jackson have done the same?

The recent up-sales in his music, the insurance pay-out, the up-coming sales of his music - future income from turning Neverland into a museum or theme park! It is clear that he will make more money after his death than he has before it.

Is Michael Jackson really dead?

Having a life that has meaning to you, that follows your desires and dreams, is more important than all the fame and money in the world. Life a wonderful life. http://BeautifulJewelsOfWisdom.com
