Here's a fact for you: Most people think having a job is the safe and secure financial option. But... I think they're dead wrong.
We've been taught since we were children that we need to do well in school, get good grades, and get a safe and secure job. If we do that, the story goes, we will have succeeded in life. The only trouble is, it's no longer possible!
This myth of the high-earning respected employee with a job he can rely on keeps people TRAPPED every day of their lives. Schools teach us to be "wage slaves", telling us how to work for other people, and how to write a Resumé in the hope someone will hire us.

In the short term a job might be safer than starting your own business or joining a Network Marketing organisation, but only if you need some cash reliably for a couple of months, perhaps a year. But as a long term money-earning strategy a job is unwise.
Is a job safer than your own Network Marketing business? No way. Let's do a quick 'Freedom Test'.
+ Does an employee have complete control over how much they earn?
Not a chance. If you don't believe me, test it. Walk up to your boss and ask him/her for a 20% salary increase. See what happens. My guess? Laughter...
+ Does someone in network marketing have complete control over how much money they earn?
Absolutely. Your only limits are those you set for yourself. If you want a pay increase, go out there and get it. The only person you need permission off is the reflection in the bathroom mirror.
+ Does an employee have control over their financial future?
No chance. What if your boss decided to fire you tomorrow? Unforeseen circumstances. Bad economy. Layoffs. No employee can be even 50% certain that they're immune to the axe. With corporations tightening their belts the only thing you can rely on are your wits and your ability to create.
+ Does a network marketer have control over their financial future?
Absolutely. How much you earn is nobody's decision but your own. Whether you deserve a pay rise is all up to you, because there's nobody to ask for permission.
You see, it's all about control. Who controls the rope attached to the guillotine hanging above your pay check? Do you trust your boss to never let go of that rope, or would you prefer to keep it in your own firm grip?
A network marketer is building something big, has no chance of getting fired, can choose their own hours, and has no ceiling on the amount of money they can earn.
Are you a network marketer yet?
To your success,
