6. Dare to Be a Visionary

And claim your financial goals: I read somewhere that out of Yale class of 1953, 3% had written down their financial goals for after college. When they convened 20 years later, that 3% controlled more combined net worth than other 97% combined.

7. Love Unconditionally

If you wish to partner with money, give, tithe, let it go, and set it free. Did I say “FREE?” Because all you have is truly all you need. You have to have courage to give what you want to get. If it is yours, it will come back. If it does not, you never really had it in first place. Furthermore, since we are all one, giving to another is really giving to yourself.

8. Have Fun & Play

”Life is a game…”

When millionaires lose all their money, they do not worry, as they know they can and will enjoy making it again. Relax; money is only a game.

9. Sell What Benefits Others

Ponder this: would you be happy purchasing something that is revealed to be worthless? Ethical business practices are simply to receive money for a service or a product only if buyer deems it valuable. Ex. Price of art. Price of a house. Price of a candy bar. And should someone be unhappy with your product or service, promptly give a refund.

10. Adopt a Pilgrim’s Mind

The magic of not knowing is what makes dream possible. Believe in something greater than yourself! That attitude will pave road with golden opportunities. Your only work is to recognize each of them, greet them as your friend, and then act on them: that is rich!

Seek to go public based upon flat fees, not hourly rates. This limits your risk to agreed upon fees. Find someone who can package entire registration and listing service for you. It’s always cheaper to buy complete service rather than individual parts. The supplier is taking several companies public and gets better prices from professionals for their services.

It’s less costly for a non-American company to go public in States than for any U. S. Domestic Company to become a U.S. public company in America. The money savings relate to lower levels of legal responsibility for filing attorney doing a 20F filing rather than an SB2 filing. The non-American company can use an auditor and an audit method that is accepted in their local country. This saves money over paying an American Accounting Firm to do a GAAP audit.

There are other savings for non-American companies trading in United States. They include fact that SEC does not require quarterly filings (called 10Qs), nor is an annual shareholders report or meeting. I believe that clear, concise communications with shareholders is vital. I believe that both positive and negative information needs to be shared in a timely manner. I doubt SEC requirements for 10Qs and shareholder reports is most cost effective way to achieve these goals.

Historically, Over-the-Counter and Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) are easiest and cheapest places to list your shares. This market has a bad reputation. My advice is seek to list your shares on a Regional Stock Exchange as soon as your company meets regional stock exchange’s listing requirements.

Epilog: Since March 2000, Enron, Tyco International and WorldCom stock scandals have driven cost of doing a GAAP audit upward. Inflation continues and cost of doing an IPO has risen substantially in past four years.
