Wealth Tip: Are You Rich Yet? (cont'd)

Everyday I meet people who make a good living and yet secretly fear that they can never quit their job. They don't know how to make money or how to make their money work effectively and safely for them. They never learned how to move to Level III investing – how to create passive streams of income while working 10 hours or less per month.

Or, maybe you're like hundreds of thousands of Americans who have a lump of cash somewhere – pension plan, home equity, or maybe an inheritance – and don't know how to convert that cash into steady, secure cash flow that shows up each and every month without you having to work more than 10 hours per month. Remember the secret isn't just getting rich – it's having the money and income streams and the time, health, relationships and just general love of life to enjoy it all.

Let me give you one more "what if" and then I'll tell you about a special offer that might be just perfect for you. The only downside is that you’ll have to act fast if the offer is appropriate for you because the event happens this coming weekend in Las Vegas!

Okay, here's the final "what if." What if you've got some money now, maybe even a lot of money, or a high income job or profession and the thing that's keeping you up at night is worrying how much longer you can keep up at this pace? If you lost everything, how long would it take for you to be right back where you are? If the answer is "never" or "a really long time", then there is one big hurdle you have to keeping the money you have. That hurdle is something we call your Wealth Operating System™ (W.O.S. for short.)

Your W.O.S. is the sum total of your emotional associations and beliefs about wealth, money, rich people, and financial success. You can spot a person who has a low W.O.S. when they get rich. That's the guy who hits the lottery and is bankrupt in 18 months or the lady who owns a piece of real estate that goes up in value, sells it and loses everything in bad investments. Make sure your W.O.S. allows you to be wealthy. Otherwise, you'll lose it all when you get it.

There is one more secret to feeling that you're rich in your life. Give some of it away. It's only when we feel wealthy that we can give from our abundance. Giving money or your time is the surest way to prove that you have enough. That's why being a Maui Millionaire also includes giving through time, talent and money to causes that you are deeply passionate about.

I hope you have a great week ahead of you and look for another free ebook (in case you missed last week’s FOUR free ebooks) in the next two weeks.

My best to you,

David
