Two Lessons From The Global Economy

Build And Protect Wealth Now, Before The Crash For several years now, I can say I've had a meaningful impact on an organization that has a meaningful impact on the whole world. I've worked behind the scenes as coach and instructor of the world's best-and-brightest business minds, and chief among my clients has been the leading global management consulting firm.

I've learned a lot from that experience, but two things principally:

1. There are two types of people out there. I call them "The Entrepreneur" and "The Victim." Victims have a negative vision of the future and - kinda like "negative goal setting" - their actions lead them inexorably to that bad future. They are waiting for things to happen "to" them. Entrepreneurs, in stark contrast, are out there making things happen "for" themselves and others, every day, because they are driven by a more positive vision of the future... and, as is the case with all of us, their daily actions push them unavoidably toward the future of their choice.

(In truth, we all have both types inside us... but I find that folks tend to lean pretty strongly in one direction or the other. Good news for Victims: changing that direction IS possible.)

2. There is a global economic storm coming our way, based on the subtle "progressive" changes the world's power brokers have been forcing on the global economy for decades. It's going to make the Great Depression of the 1930s look like the salad days. Some real experts say $50 trillion is going to change hands from the uninformed "sheeple" to the new class of savvy leaders, over the coming months and years. To be on the receiving end of that great wealth transfer, you have to be prepared. You have to get a real financial education (not advice-for-hire biased sales pitches), so that you can get smart about what's really going on. And you have to get off the "financial grid," so to speak, by having an income stream that doesn't depend on your employer.

Start your own business. Start by doing business on the side (don't quit your job)... but, as soon as you can, FIRE YOUR BOSS. It'll be a favor to her. Make her go out and get her own real job (meaning, start her own real business).

The future will belong to Smart Entrepreneurs: people who are willing to bet on themselves and take initiative, but who also have taken the time and energy to educate themselves about what's really going on in the global economy. Experts say more "new money" wealthy will be created during the coming few months than at any time in history... and that should be highly inspiring to you.
