Is Our Wealth Connected to Our Health

Have you noticed the correlation between health and wealth? Since most successful people take care of their bodies, as well as the other aspects of their life, this short article will reveal several simple, small, and easy-to-do changes that can be made to our daily routine and diet (frequently referred to as The 1% Solution – 100 days to maximum wealth, health, and wisdom), so we will set the stage for big rewards in the near future! Heavier people are generally not as financially healthy. The excess weight is frequently caused by consuming too much food. Today, all across the globe, we tend to eat a lot of fast food. The money goes out of the wallet and the pounds go on the body. The extra five or six bucks you spend a day tallies up to a lot of excess calories and over $140,000 in lost money over thirty years. If you forego the extra food such as desserts or super-sized helpings, then sock away the six bucks a day (estimated cost of the extra food), and earn 5% interest on your money, you could be almost $150,000 richer when you face retirement. You would have less fat on the body and more fat in your bank account. The more you eat leads to a lifestyle that frequently includes more medical problems and these problems are the most costly expenses people face in life. Overweight individuals tend to have more doctor visits because their body cannot support the weight. Many knee replacements could be avoided if people would lose the weight. Illness and chronic diseases tend to affect obese people more. Recovery time for an injury, or surgery, takes longer for larger people and that ends up costing more. Besides higher medical bills, try getting inexpensive life insurance when you are overweight. If you get coverage at all, you pay a lot more for it. Statistics show that obese people live seven years less than average weight people. Giving up seven years of your life and having less money while you are alive, does not make sense. When you start taking care of your body, you feel so much better. It energizes you and affects all areas of your life. When you start eating healthier, you can see the change in your body. It creates a healthier mind and with a healthier mind, you are better able to concentrate on finances and take care of the business side of your life. Our nutrition routine can be as simple as: staying hydrated by drinking 6-8 glasses of water a day; eating 6 little meals instead of 3 standard meals a day; and snacking throughout the day on nuts, fresh fruit, and pre-cut fresh vegetables. By weaving our fitness routine throughout our day, we can prevent wasting time and money at the gym and avoid expensive workout gear in our home. Our fitness routine can be as simple as: starting the day with a brisk 10 minute workout (push-ups, setups, jumping jacks, or a power walk) and isometric exercises, performed throughout the day, that can be performed at your desk, in the kitchen, or in the bathroom, using the counter top as support. Studies have shown that larger folks actually make less money. If money motivates you, then following reverse logic, you would want to get healthy first and then get wealthy. Taking care of your body now will lead to very soon taking care of your financial health. Maybe this is the motivation you need! If you can control certain things in your life, don’t you want to control these things? Instead of going on a diet, don’t you want to change your thinking about food and eating? Instead of wasting time and money at the gym, don’t you want to change your thinking about fitness and learn the simple exercises and stretches that use your body as your gym and avoid the wear and tear on joints or ligaments? You can get in shape both physically and financially. Stop making excuses and begin today to get in the best shape of your life; your pocketbook will thank you. And, as Nike says, Just Do It! As mentioned in a previous article, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, Chief Medical Correspondent at CNN, has reported that “Practical Immortality may now be within our grasp.” So now the question becomes, “how do we slow the rate of aging and avoid the frailty that would make longevity less desirable?” With antioxidant supplements, we can slow our rate of aging; with a nutrition and fitness routine, we can avoid frailty and improve our health; and with an industry leading business opportunity, we can make great money, generate financial wealth, and enjoy our longer lives. I hope you enjoyed the article with ways to fight back against the conspiracy for your health and how our wealth is connected to our health. Happy Reading and Here's to Your Success!

Best incentive to offer employees - What's the best incentive to offer employees? Is it more health benefits? More vacation? Health club memberships? Paying for training? Cash / non-cash bonuses & rewards? I'm preparing a new package for my company and would love to get your thoughts! Thank you in advance!
list building - OK.... I think I get it. Reason I'm curious is that I'm working on a Health product site with a friend, it will fit nicely with the client base on arcamax. We're planning to set up an affiliate program to drive sales and looking for low cost alternatives to generate traffic. We will be creating several reports, and a book is already available. We just need to get the puzzle pieces in place for the site - then get the traffic.
Re: Let Your Employees Nap At Work - Hi Evan, Thanks for the post, it makes interesting reading and I must admit a power nap in the afternoon seems very appealing. I know in some countries particularly Spain they have a siesta and close up the shops for a couple of hours then re-open again in the late afternoon, not sure I could do that,LOL There has been some interest in the UK for 'quiet rooms' in some industries but that relates more to Health and Safety and dealing with stress at work by chilling out for a short period but not much has really come of it and certainly not allocated nap times but I like the idea. I think as one comment on the post pointed out, this is a great side benefit of working from home, you can allocate your own nap time. regards, Mal.
Re: Need some information on freelance jobs! - Hi Evan, Thanks for the video, you have made some excellent points there, I especially agree with your suggestion that we should add value wherever possible. Many of the training classes that I run (my day job) are on subjects relating to Health and Safety and First Aid etc and many of these courses are a legal requirement. So to add value, I make a point of writing or calling my clients when their present certification is about to run out. I also send a report from each course advising of who attended or not and when the earliest course is for those who didn’t make it to come back. My clients really appreciate this because quite often in their own busy lives they have forgotten or just don’t know. These are just a couple of ways that I try to add value and stand out from other trainers, as many of them don’t do this. This is easy recurring business for me so I can certainly relate to your video. thanks again, Mal.
Re: Are Economic Recessions Good for Franchising? - All we can do is remain wide awake and pay attention to the ebb and flow. My strategy is to be prepared and go with the flow. There could be some rough times ahead... Interestingly, our business has remained strong. I believe it's because we're in such a tight little niche and we're well positioned to sign jobs nationwide, therefore we're not restricted to location. We also target affluent markets that have higher disposable incomes - this we do locally. Here are some Franchise Categories that could weather a good recession... Health and Personal Care Food services like Subway Debt Collection Tax Preparers & Advisors Any other recession proof franchise opps out there?
