Let your imagination roam.

•Evaluate skills you’ve developed at work or through your hobbies and consider how you can convert them into a profitable business. •Learn to buy a product at wholesale and sell it for retail. Ebay makes it very easy to do this. •You can purchase a piece of property and improve it. •Hire a financial planner and invest in stocks (make sure financial planner is wealthy – don’t take financial advice from someone more poor than you). •Speak with your banker and find a tax-free retirement program and you can accumulate a princely sum over years through compounding interest.

Poor people spend their money and save what's left. Rich people save their money and spend what's left.

3) 70% for Lifestyle

When considering how to spend this 70% you should divide it between necessities and luxuries. Use some of it to catch up bills, pay off credit accounts, etc. Use it to get ahead.

But, and I stress this wholeheartedly; make sure you use some of it to splurge. I’m serious. Be practical with some of it first but then just be totally, completely illogical with some of it.

Do something fun. Do something you’ve wanted to do but didn’t have money to do. Buy yourself something you’ve been depriving yourself from having because it “wasn’t in your budget.”

There is a psychological reason for this.

Think about it. When you “Win” money your brain starts thinking “Yeah, I can blow it on…[whatever comes to your mind]!” That’s a typical reaction.

What if you then give some away to charity, invest some and pay bills with rest and your brain gets no “fun” satisfaction whatsoever. What do you think it’s going to do?

Right - it’s going to start regretting your decisions to use 10/20/70 plan and it’s going to want to go back to 100% plan where you totally splurge and wind up deeper in debt than before winning money.

Do you want to have fun with your money and know that you’re protecting your financial future or do you want to continue to fall further behind and deeper in financial ruin?

It’s up to you. But I hope when you win at WeeklyWinning.com, or wherever, that you choose to use this 10/20/70 plan and truly stack odds in your favor for a happy financial future.

WeeklyWinning.com is so simple, so powerful, and so profitable for players… it just makes sense. We look forward to making you a winner.

Old Country

If you can sing words to three or more Willie Nelson, George Jones, and Johnny Cash songs please come in. If you can sing along to Patsy Cline, Charlie Rich, and Hank Williams please take a seat. If you can croon all night with Bob Wills please let me get you a beer, I’m glad we met. Welcome to old country category, sadly a lot of people find it boring here.

Real Old Country

Most people in this category know how to yodel. They’ve probably witnessed someone play bones, if they do not already know how to play them themselves. The people in this category refer to each other as “folks” and recognize that country’s roots derived from folk music. This category requires being able to enjoy sitting on a front porch sipping ice tea in middle of summer while some old man plays “Streets of Laredo” on an old Gibson. Indulging in campfire banjo playing helps as well.

If you’re like me, you probably have your favorite category and then like some things out of each one. There’s not really any one way to define country music, and with it being an ever-changing industry there probably never will be. One thing that doesn’t change though, no matter which category, you can still dust of your boots and take just about any country song to dancehall with you.
