NWM => Our Investment of T-I-M-E?

Hello Business Associates:

I'd like to discuss something that I feel all too often "gets lost by the wayside" in our NWM industry -- a true appreciation of the real "value" of our T-I-M-E investment.

One of the most awesome GIFTS we receive from investing our TIME in the ownership of a NWM Home Biz is -- PASSIVE (Residual) INCOME. Another Gift is the amazing power of LEVERAGE.

Most other businesses do not provide these enormous benefits.

In order to stay serious about our Network Marketing businesses, I believe we need to realize what our TIME is "really" worth - while we're building it.

I say this both as a Business and Financial Consultant + as a Network Marketing Professional.

It is not at all unreasonable to invest our TIME to earn - $500/month - $1,500/month - $3,000/month - $10.000/month - and much, much more - from a solid NWM Home Biz. This is beyond dispute.

But what we often fail to realize is -- the VALUE of those monthly incomes (as a result of our TIME commitment).

CAPITALIZATION - Let's explore the real "value" of our TIME investment in NWM (to produce that Passive [Residual] Income) -- by working out HOW MUCH CAPITAL we would need to deposit in a Bank -- in order to "produce" that Income Stream (net).

ILLUSTRATION - Let's suppose we earned $3,000/month ($36,000/year) from our NWM business - by working 20 hours a week - for 50 weeks. That's 1,000 HOURS in one year. (Most people work their Networking business only 7-10 hours per week). Because we can develop on-going (passive) income, we can compare this to money earned from an investment - or deposited in a Bank.

TO OBTAIN A $36,000 (NET) / YEAR 'RETURN' - To net that $3,000/month - first we would have to have 'earned' $1,000,000. (yes, $1-million! - gross salary, before taxes). After we deduct the "extra expenses" that we get from having a 'Home' Biz, let's say we pay Uncle Sam just 30% in taxes ($300,000). So we would still be left with $700,000 to invest - or deposit in a Bank, etc.

With today's current economy, let's say that we're are able to safely earn 5.15% on our investment. Our annual income (return) - at 5.15% - from this Bank deposit or investment - would be about $36,000/year (net, after taxes).

[[ NOTE - this calculation does not even take into account INFLATION (at say, 2-3%) - which means that, unless that original CAPITAL of $1-million is "increased" by 2-3%/yr ($30,000 each year), it will keep eroding - paying out "less" than the $36,000/year it was intended to! ]]

HERE'S THE POINT - $1,000,000 - from 1000 hours of TIME equals an income of $1,000 per HOUR. If it took us two years (2000 hours), instead of one year, to do this - it would still equal $500/hour. At three years (3000 hours) we would still be making $333/hour. Few people are 'ever' able to earn this type of money, especially an on-going PASSIVE Income (where they don't always need to BE there, to produce that income) - an income that can be passed on to our heirs.

Therefore, by investing our TIME into learning and working our NWM Home Biz, we could earn the equivalent of $333 to $1,000/hour. And that's just for starters!

ANOTHER WAY TO LOOK AT THIS - It "costs" us at least $333 - $1,000/hour NOT to get serious and build our NWM business. We really have to enjoy the Electronic Income Reducer (TV) a great deal - to pass up what this Industry has to offer.

But there's 'much more' to this business than just the MONEY...

BOTTOM LINE - This business is unique, and definitely worth the TIME and the effort it takes to build it, and it's probably the most 'fun' we'll ever have.

Where else - is there such a simple way to develop a walk-away (residual) income - one that when 'capitalized', is worth a fortune - one that can give us the Time andFinancial FREEDOM to enjoy life?

Where else - can we find a business that consists of 'Leaders developing other Leaders' - one that gives the thrill of seeing others succeed - one that gives the satisfaction of knowing that, in order for US to succeed, we must first help OTHERS to succeed?

Where else - could we make the friendships - do the traveling - have the recognition - benefit from the personal growth? On and on...

Others deserve to know what WE know about this business - that the REWARDS (financial and otherwise) can be almost unbelievable - IF we build it 'right'. It's one of the greatest TIME investments we can make

It's up to US to tell our STORY - over and over and over - to let them know.

Sincerely / Peter A.
