How To Earn A Six Figure Annual Income In The Multi-Billion Dollar Self-Improvement IndustryWritten by Ariel Keis
Wealthy and ambitious people of world often have attributed some "indescribable secret" as key to their success. People who desire to attain success in their own lives have spent, and will continue to spend, millions of dollars to cultivate these "secret" success traits within themselves.Particularly since early seventies, there has been a growing demand by public to attend classes, workshops, and self-improvement seminars that will enable them to align their thinking as well as their actions, with those of people who have already achieved success. For example, think about all of “gurus” who are raking in millions of dollars promoting wealth building seminars on such topics as government auctions, real estate and stock/commodity market investment. There are too many to list here but I am sure that you have heard of some of “big names” in this area. They capitalize on fact that many people want to duplicate their success. The popularity of such best-selling how-to books as WINNING IS BELIEVING...THINK AND GROW RICH...HOW TO DEVELOP A WINNING PERSONALITY...OVERCOMING SHYNESS... IMAGINEERING... NEW LIFE OPTIONS... WINNING BY NEGOTIATION... SUCCESSFUL VISUAL-VERBAL COMMUNICATIONS... CONVERSATIONALLY SPEAKING... and countless others is also a testament to "need" for self-improvement seminars. Dale Carnegie--the author of book, How To Win Friends and Influence People--was certainly one of first, if not "the first" self-improvement seminar market/teacher. Back in Great Depression of thirties, he recognized this need in people to improve themselves--he worked out a deal with local management of his hometown YMCA-- got word around that he was holding classes on self-improvement--and rest is one of truly classic unemployed-to-multi-million-dollar success stories of our time. Even with all of self-improvement materials available, market potential has only barely been scratched, affording a real ground-floor opportunity for those with drive and determination to take action. Successful seminars are generally based upon concept of giving one power to believe in oneself. The speakers usually speaks from insights and expertise gained from their own life experiences. Self-improvements seminars give attendees tools--and motivation--to succeed. Thus, a well-organized and well presented seminar that helps people up ladder of success can't help but succeed because we are a success oriented society--it's an easy sell with an income potential limited only by your ability to express yourself.
| | Why You Need To Buy and Sell Gold Coins (Part 4)Written by steve renner
Throughout history, many coin collections have produced substantial long-term profits for their owners. This is particularly true for coin collectors of this century. Indeed, Harold Bareford reportedly purchased a collection of U.S. gold coins for $13,832 in early 1950s which was resold at auction in 1978 for $1.2 million. A more substantial collector, Louis Eliasberg, built a collection that cost about $300,000. In 1982, it brought $12.4 million at auction.This investment performance has been well documented by sources as diverse as The Wall Street Journal, Consumer Reports and a host of industry periodicals and guidesheets. What these reports have shown is that carefully selected portfolios of rare coins have had a high rate of long-term appreciation. Of course, past performance is no guarantee of future results and investments in rare coins do involve risk. While market performance of different coins varies substantially and no representation can be made that an individual investor's portfolio will enjoy results similar to those that have been documented in various independent reports and surveys, those reports and surveys illustrate impressive returns that carefully selected rare U.S. coins can produce. Tax Benefits Capital gains on coins can only be taxed at liquidation, when profits are actually realized. There is no taxation on phantom or undistributed profits as there are with some investments. And unlike most other investments, there is no federal income tax liability on so-called "wash sales" or like-kind exchanges which enable investors to trade their rare coins for other rare coins of equal or greater value Intrinsic Value Unlike paper investments, rare U.S. coins have real tangible value you can feel each time you hold one in your hand. Therefore, they offer two ways to build wealth. Carefully selected coins truly offer best of bullion and numismatics in one investment. They contain intrinsic security of bullion and can also offer extraordinary profit potential regardless of what precious metal spot prices do. Still, precious metal content is only a relatively small factor in determining value of many rare U.S. coins whose value is almost solely based on condition, demand and rarity Historically Significant Beauty Rare U.S. coins are a part of our history--direct links to America's rich heritage--as timeless and valuable as history itself. For two centuries, U.S. coins have been symbols of American stability, as well as reflections of national pride. Throughout our nation's history, coins have spotlighted our national heroes, paid tribute to our great achievements and commemorated significant events. These truly historic works of art commemorate past sacrifices made in name of freedom. Rare U.S. coins acquaint investors with historical figures and events, no matter how far removed by time. The satisfaction of actually owning a piece of history from a bygone era makes investing in rare U.S. coins truly unique. Each coin has traveled a different path through history. As a result, each is a unique embodiment of hopes and dreams of our founding fathers
