spruikers

HOW I WENT FROM VIRTUALLY ZERO TO $3.5 MILLION OF REAL ESTATE WEALTH IN JUST 18 MONTHS!

This was an "advertisement" that appeared in one of the daily papers. The advert goes on to explain that she is a successful author, qualified accountant and economist, multi-millionaire property investor and of course a mother of three.

Now why would you think this person wants to share her secret with us on how to make money? I have never heard of this person and I don't think many have?.

And have you noticed that all these people that "sell" their secrets are not your everyday proven successes that you hear about? I mean have you ever heard Kerry Packer advertising a seminar on how to make money? or Bill Gates or Gina Reinhard?

Most successful business people make their money from their businesses - they don't need to sell anything.

Let me tell you:

1. THERE ARE NO SECRETS on how to make money and
2. YOU WILL NEVER LEARN how to make money from someone "spruiking" secrets. All you will do is part with your hard earned dollars and you will be left greatly disappointment.

Making money is a process of (mostly) hard work and long hours, good business ideas, good people to operate that business, good timing, good opportunities etc. And yes, every now and then some luck may play a small part in it.

But every now and then you will come across people - just think of names like Henry Kaye and Peter Foster - and successfully fleece many unsuspecting victims. Personally, I don't have much of sympathy for people that get caught out.

I would be interested to hear from anyone that has come across or heard of a great idea on how to make money. May be I am wrong??? - may be there is a way I can make money without really trying.

Have a great week...........
