Brilliant! Thanks for pushing your readers to start their journey to success in their own little way. Starting a business course maybe difficult at the beginning but everyone should not be afraid to try this.

Love the way you are tying the reality of your venture to a step-by-step analysis of what it takes to be successful. This is worth forwarding out.

Natalie, great article. Even if on this side of the pond we refer to Worker Bees - the points translate globally!

Thanks, Wendy. Yes, I agree - one needs to place ads in front of as many people as possible within one's target audience.

Re: Everybody Needs Passive Income!

Very valuable message. Put another way, we all need to become owners.

To become an owner is to become a fully mature adult. Note also that the tax structure in the U.S. (and presumably elsewhere) somewhat unjustly favors owners. Those who own a LOT pay much less taxes, on a % basis, on their income. I disagree with this - but at the same time recognize it as an even greater incentive for everyone to heed the advice in this blog.

We should be working to achieve financial freedom, on a go-forward basis.

More words to the wise.

The transition from employee to owner is not an easy one - and though it is highly recommended as a goal, we should listen to the experts as we seek to climb that particular Everest.

Dave, you're doing a great service to all those who read (and heed) your blogs here!

Natalie, I just came downstairs after finishing watching the movie Grizzly Man on DVD. And for some reason I decided it was time to read and comment on your latest blog. That's a bit eerie - and yet it seems to validate your point. Through diligence and continuous hard work, spontaneous combustion seems to happen. Selah!

Reinhard,

I can attest to the wisdom of your dad. I work on large complex contracts for large corporations, and in the heat of the battle it's easy to lose sight of the basic principles. Thanks for making your point clearly and elegantly.
