Just Spend the Money! Invest the Time!

My wife and I stopped by a local restaurant the other night for a light meal. The cost? Just about $20.00. The food was good, the time spent together - "great": at the end of the evening the meal and the $20.00 were gone, but the investment in the experience of building our relationship remained.

That is true of so much of life: a $20.00 bill almost 'vanishes' from a wallet. A few groceries, very little gas for the car, a couple movie tickets (maybe), order some popcorn and drinks - extra.

Twenty bucks, gone in a flash without thinking; and yet to invest $20.00 in building a future? Impossible for some, the best money ever spent for others. One of my 1st subscribers, and possibly my first book buyer, recently contacted me regarding bidding on another account. Like my friend Gina, who makes an extra $30,000/year office cleaning (her story is here), my subscriber/buyer runs her janitorial service as a part-time endeavor. She and her daughter make an extra $1,000.00 per month. She's grown comfortable in the business and now wants to bid on an account that will double her income. 

She spent $20.00 on a book that taught her how to earn an extra $1,000.00 a month, and sees unlimited potential. See, the Twenty Dollars was a Low Cost expense; the High Price was the willingness to do it.

If you want, you can pick up a used bike fairly cheaply, but if you want to use it to get healthy, that takes hard work.

How about you? Check out the opportunities here. The cost is LOW, But the price you're willing to pay for economic freedom.........?
