Watch As Mike Talks About “The Greatest Wealth Transfer In History”
Mike’s goal is to help bring more awareness to the greatest wealth transfer in history and the stuff we see in the news headlines every day (Join The Elevation Group) (or more
importantly, the stuff we DON’T see) so that you can
understand it in a way that makes you more money.
Because as entrepreneurs, I believe the greatest
impact people like you and I can have is by accumulating
more resources (call it “money,” call it a “list,” call
it a “team,” call it whatever you want) that we can
then use to further the causes we believe in.
We’re living through an unprecedented time in history
and I’m just amazed to be a part of it. The greatest wealth transfer is history.
In our flat world, global events have a very real
and massive impact on people like you and me and the
decisions we make about our future.
By switching to this topic for a little bit you may
gain greater insights into business… marketing…
psychology… nature… success… people (and possibly
yourself) than you have in all your previous years
combined.
A couple weeks ago I sent out a survey asking people
what other things they were interested in learning
about.
Investing was right at the top of the list and it
couldn’t come at a better time.
If you’ve read ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ by Robert Kiyosaki
you know that the model he teaches is to build a
business and to then take the profits from that
business and invest them so that you have both people
and money working for you.
So my goal was always to move from the ‘S’ (self
employed) quadrant where I was before, to the ‘B’
(business) quadrant, and then to the ‘I’ (investor)
quadrant.
If you’re like me though, you’ve probably always
found the ‘I’ quadrant to be very confusing and
intimidating.
Well, with…
-Daily headlines about the international currency wars
brewing…
-Another $900 billion recently pumped into the economy
from the Federal Reserve…
-Real unemployment numbers in the US close to 20% (at
the peak of the great depression it was about 24%)…
-And the average baby boomer’s portfolio having lost
30-40% of it’s value after going through what was the
largest stock market crash in history (yes, bigger
than 1929)…
…There has NEVER been a better time in history to
make the jump into both the ‘B’ and the ‘I’
quadrants.
So what’s going on with the economy anyway?
I thought Ben Bernanke said the recession was over and
we were officially on the road to recovery?
People are still buying Caribou and everyone’s out
shopping today so what’s the big deal?

Anything Holding You Back From Starting An Online Business?
Whenever you’re contemplating starting an online business idea there is often what could seem to be a huge hurdle right in front of you. It can stop you in your tracks before you really take any action. Is fear preventing you starting an internet business If you have not yet taken action to start the steps then I really urge you to ask yourself this question. What is really stopping you?
If you are able to ascertain what’s stopping you, after that you have a good chance to change such negative behavior. There are actually three distinct kinds of fear of failure with regard to starting an internet business. You may identify with just one or you could associate your self with all three types of fear of failure. What ever you discover, there are strategies to overcome these fears and get you on the road to success, starting an online business.
The very first is the common fear of the unknown and it might paralyze you to the point of inaction. If it is a monetary fear such as spending a lot of money developing an idea then, particularly for an initial project, just don’t go any further. If it is just about being uncertain of what to do and how to tackle the steps from researching potential niche markets to building a internet site and blog site, product creation or sourcing and the marketing, then there is not a great deal to worry about. It is a matter of just taking each step one at a time and go and find the appropriate info that will assist you in progressing. Thousands of other people in the same place as you have done it so there is no reason you won’t be able to either.
The next factor is a fear of failure, for example, wondering what others will think and say if you do not enjoy success immediately? Firstly, if you undertake proper analysis, your idea shouldn’t be a total failure. Secondly, not every idea is as good as envisaged. It does not matter. You took action, and you learned a great deal. It is a fact the almost no-one hits the jackpot with their first project, even their second or third. But you learn a massive amount and this builds your skill base and self-confidence for starting an online business. Just don’t listen to these “armchair experts”.
How about getting constrained about a fear of success? Many people get worried that as orders flood in they won’t have sufficient stock, or that their download link doesn’t work or there will be large volume of refunds. Your first project is unlikely to encounter such “problems”. In the real-world, when starting an online business, you should be striving for a steady trickle of orders placed. The actual reality when starting an online business is that you’ll achieve a constant flow of product sales on a weekly then daily basis and fulfill these through digital download or distributing the product via the mail. When you have understood how to undertake what is needed, then you have the option to expand into other areas of the chosen niche or possibly other niches as well.
You are entitled to the money you will make for putting in the work and now you will be compensated for it. If you supply beneficial info and excellent service then you will have happy customers instead of an angry horde wanting for their money back.
It’s not so difficult to take an creative idea and start an online business around it. Anything that’s unfamiliar almost always creates fears. Yet through taking action; finding the information to help and listening to those that have been successful ahead of you, there is no reason why you should not join the ranks of those who have a successful at starting an online business.
Here’s a start up idea you might be interested in. How about your own membership site? A site that is totally set up for you and all the work in providing your members value on a monthly basis is also taken care of for you. Leaving you to simply bring visitors to the sales page. And the training provided shows you a step by step way of doing that. If This interests you Click Here.
I Found This Great Visualization Of The European Debt Problem - Today’s Economy In Europe Simply Explained
Today’s economy sure is in a topsy turby place. Throughout history the banks have loved lending governments money. For centuries banks have loaned countries money to go to war with their neighbors (the most expensive endeavor) and then secretly go and loan the opponents money to defend themselves so no decisive victory would occur – and the banks could do it all over again in a few years. Ingenious really. It was really a system for the bankers to tax the peasants of the world and let the governments take the blame. The governments only had two options – default and never get another loan and get conquered by a neighbor. Or tax the peasants and pay up. They either taxed the people directly or create more currency causing inflation (the hidden tax). The peasants paid either way either directly out of their pockets or through higher prices for everything.
With gold and silver as the main type of money for most of the world for most of history, it tended to act as a brake and put a cap on the bankers greed to lend money. But in 1972 something changed. Nixon removed the gold backing of the US dollar. Since that date the virtually the whole world went on a fiat currency system, because the US dollar was the currency of foreign exchange. From that point on there has been no limit on the amount of currency governments could borrow or print.
But it can’t go on for ever. The end game is being played out before our eyes right now. Today some countries can’t tax their citizens enough to even pay the interest on their debt, even at the current low interest rates. In Europe individual countries can’t do the standard solution of printing their way out of debt, causing hyperinflation, having their government and financial system collapse and starting out afresh. The only way out is default and that would set the dominions a tumbling, with the world wide banking system collapsing due to all the intertwined derivative that have been created. And once one country defaults there is no stopping a second or third from doing the same. Today’s economy has the banking system in panic mode.
The greatest wealth transfer in history is happening right now in front of your eyes. The only question you need to know is which side you will be on.
Here is a great graphic I found giving you as insight on European debt.
Submitted by Michael Victory on 01/31/2012 10:11 -0500 http://www.zerohedge.com
This info-graphic shows how much banks loaned to Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece & Spain. Europe is in deep crisis. The following images illustrate how much must be repaid.
When you commit to do what ever it takes you’ve made a commitment to keep on going no matter what. There is no easy way out of a do what ever it takes attitude.
Compare that to a I’ll do the best I can commitment. The best I can - that’s a ticket to quit as soon as the going gets tough.

Sell Your Paper Silver and Get Your Hands On Some Silver Bars And Silver Coins
GoldSilver.com
JANUARY 23, 2012
The price action of silver is one of the most volatile within the commodity markets. Several factors contribute to this volatility and have actively dissuaded some investors from participating through this initial phase of one of the strongest, ongoing, asset revaluations in decades.
As we begin to move into phase two of this silver bull market, continuing increases in industrial demand and applications, the growing crowds of new investors, and the diminishing rate of silver extraction from the earth (alongside several other factors) continue to produce a set of fundamentals which are unique to this essential, monetary precious metal.
Today, there are notable distinctions between the paper silver and physical silver markets. Understanding the distinctions between paper and physical silver is critical to any serious precious metals investor.
The overabundance of paper silver has brought about a new dynamic in both the trading and physical delivery of investment grade, production ready, .999+ fine silver.
The advent of electronic and over-the-counter derivative trading has provided large financial institutions broad avenues for potential short-term price manipulation and chicanery. Government and regulatory agencies have often overlooked the disproportionate grasp several large commercial bank participants currently have on the short-term silver market.
The bulk of today’s paper silver markets are centered around the trading of futures contracts mostly at the COMEX, ETFs or exchange traded funds in the equity/stock markets, and the over-the-counter derivatives traded amongst financial institutions. These paper vehicles and ETF’s simply give investors paper silver price exposure, but they fail to provide any further insulation from broader economic risks such a currency collapse, a liquidity crisis, or a systemic failure. Furthermore, the actual physical silver ownership for many ETFs is questionable, as many times exchange traded fund prospectuses are laden with exhaustive and vague legal terminology and loopholes.
The ownership of silver via the traditional paper silver markets such as the ETFs, options, and futures poses additional counter-party exposure to investors. While counter-party risks may have at one point seemed minimal, incidents like the recent MF Global debacle prove otherwise. In the case of MF Global, it appears that segregated customer account funds were used by MF Global, to place losing speculative bets using derivatives on European credit markets. Many former clients of MF Global may never see their capital again, while derivatives have again helped produce a destabilizing effect on our financial system.
These financial derivative instruments, referred to by Mike Maloney as “financial voodoo” and by Warren Buffett as “financial weapons of mass destruction”, were initially created to limit risk. But, instead of limiting risk, they have simply spread risk to the entire world!
Much of the paper silver markets now function like our current, hyper-levered, fiat currency system. Many paper silver market makers hold merely a fraction of the underlying reserves they trade, yet they continually issue IOUs for potentially nonexistent amounts of underlying metals. Meanwhile, additional participants are then allowed to build leverage upon the aforementioned fraction of silver reserves held, similar to banks in today’s fractional reserve lending scheme.
If a great number of big silver market participants overwhelmingly demand delivery in silver bars and silver coins, the fragility of today’s overly-leveraged paper silver market could be exposed for the world to see, driving physical silver prices to astronomical levels.
We believe a gigantic divergence in the price of paper vs. physical silver bars and silver coins is almost inevitable, as the illusive pricing of paper trading is overcome by the true market forces of, real world, supply and demand. Understanding the importance of physical ownership is critical. We aim to lead by example as we continue to acquire physical investment grade silver bars and silver coins, while avoiding paper vehicles.

What’s Your Best Niche and What Is Niche Marketing Anyway ?
Your niche is essentially your expertise and/or the type of information you provide your audience in your blog posts, but how do you find the best niche for niche marketing? It can be broad or narrow and it can be based on your interests or your products/services.

2. What areas are you the most knowledgeable in?
Think about topics in which you have a wealth of knowledge. Write these topics in the corresponding column from question #1.
