How To Make Money While Living In The Country Of Your Choice

Guest post by: Mike Morgan

Article Overview: This is an inspiring story of a good friend of mine who packed up her family and moved to France for a year. Is this something you would see as an impossible dream? There is an easy way to achieve this sort of dream. A business which you can operate almost anywhere in the world is the answer.

How To Make Money While Living In The Country Of Your Choice

I met up with a very good friend of mine the other day and I would like to share her inspiring story about having a dream and being prepared to take herself right out of her comfort zone in order to achieve it.

My friend is a mother of two lovely young children and being a fluent French speaker she wanted to live in France for a year to enable the children to become bilingual and experience another culture by total immersion. This is a pretty major goal but she set about selling her business and renting out her house and timed it to coincide with her partner's year off study to write his thesis. There were some fairly anxious moments in the buildup prior to setting off with the business still unsold a month out from the departure date and a number of other challenges.

Everything came together just in time and the family set out on their adventure. What followed was the most incredible year spent in a small village in the southwest of France with frequent trips to Paris. Becoming members of a small community and attending the local schools was a life changing experience for the two young children. They are now both fluent in French and understand the value of travelling to and living in another country. In fact they can't wait to go back. There were many challenges along the way, particularly financially but they stuck with the plan and absorbed everything they could while on this journey.

It was very brave and inspired move for a parent to think outside the square and to take the risk of living out a dream in order to add such value to a child's experiences in life.

Is this something that you may have considered but have wondered how you could make it work?

With a home based online business it is possible to live in any country in the world as long as you have access to an internet connection and a telephone network. All you need is concerted hard work at the outset along with an eagerness to follow the training and coaching available. After a relatively short period of time you could be earning enough to pack your laptop and phone and relocate to the exotic destination of your choice. Home based internet marketing is the major growth industry in the world at present and with a billion and a half internet users the sky really is the limit.

Imagine having this sort of freedom. No taking a year off work with the worry that you may not find a new job on your return. No eating into your savings to support yourself. No trying to find paid work in a foreign country. And imagine the benefits for your family. How much more is learned by this sort of experience. A lot more than would happen if you followed the norm and attended your local school year after year.

My friend should be an inspiration to all of us.

Re: Which movie will make the most money this summer? - [quote="ideasuniversity":1941330f]I saw Mummy 3 yesterday with my friends yesterday and I was really impressed. The movie house was filled to the brim. I also saw Indiana Jones, but I am yet to see The Batman. I don't know which will make money more thn the ohter until I check wikipedia.com[/quote:1941330f] I feel that movies like "The Dark Knight" that are genuinely good and make the most money should win all the accolades/awards. I mean, how can a movie that barely anyone has seen like last year's "No Country For Old Men" win the Oscar for "Best Picture"?? While I did take the time to watch "No Country For Old Men" and thought it was ok, it's not something I'd want to watch over again or recommend to a friend. In fact, "Fargo" was probably a better version of "No Country For Old Men". For instance, would you award the Entrepreneur of the Year Award to someone (or a business) no one has heard of, but did everything perfectly... or would you give it to the person/business that made the most money/media impact?
Re: Quote of the Day - "The only people witho - Thanks for sharing this Evan, there are some very powerful quotes in there, I particularly like this one:- You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don't think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully. regards, Mal.
Re: Which would you start: a Blog or Online Community? - It is a difficult decision to make. Lets start it this way - What are you more interested in? Money? or Friends? or Both? If its purely Money, then Blog might be an appropriate answer. But consider this - It will be people (visitors) that will bring traffic to your blog and then Money will follow. This will be possible after a time and during this time it will be your friends who will be the starters. If you are looking for friends only, then its true that not many will be interested in knowing how you have beaten them in the game or the other way round. So it will be preferable to have a Forum where they can share ideas with you and others. But you can share your insider knowledge with them and invite comments from your Blog. You can also put up information on what others (including your friends) don't know about Tennis. The blog you create can provide News, Inside Information and also Techniques that can be used by the new entrants in the world of Tennis.
Making Money in 2011 - Hello forum members! As we draw closer to the new year I thought it would be appropriate to change the title of our forum category "Making Money in 2010" to "Making Money in 2011" - I'm looking forward to some interesting discussions and wish everyone a prosperous New Year!
QuickBooks vs. Microsoft Money vs....? - I have always used Microsoft Money to run my business - accounting, invoicing, etc. It came with my computer when I got it and integrated well with my online banking system so everything is a breeze. It only takes 30-60 minutes every quarter to do the bookkeeping (keep in mind that I have a very simple business - no inventory, very little invoicing, I do all my payments by credit card, etc). Is QuickBooks or Money the best accounting tool for small business owners? Or is there something even better?
