Is it possible for the everyday man to get rich? Can the everyday man retire early? This is exactly what I would like to find out. I am just like 95% of the population. I go to work nine to five, have a mortgage and want to find a way to get ahead. I am going to update this blog every Tuesday night. I will start by talking through the ways I have tried to make extra income and then continue with what I am working on. I will keep all my followers up to date on the success or failure of every venture. Hopefully this blog will make life easier for my followers to make money as well.
First of all... just so you can see that I am a regular Joe, I will introduce myself and share a bit about my current situation. I am 27 years old working as an engineer. I am married to the love of my life. We have three dogs and no kids just yet. We have a house that we bought a year and a half ago and we are constantly saving money to spend renovating. Our dream is to be financially free, to own a bigger house, on a bigger property in a nicer neighbourhood. Somewhere where we can have kids and live a happy life together. None of this will happen without money. My wife works nine to five as well as an administrator. Both of us would like kids one day, but we would like to be able to spend time with them instead of being stuck at work. So... what is the secret?
Over the past few years I've done a lot of reading, talking to many successful people and even tried a few ventures. I have learned a lot, but I still haven't found what I am looking for. So... what is it that I am looking for. Some of you may have heard about "creating a pipeline" before. For those of you that haven't, I will explain it. A regular job can be equated to a person going everyday to a well to fetch a bucket of water. If this person doesn't change anything, they will continue to get up every morning having to go to collect the water. Now, if this person spent some of their spare time building a pipeline between the well and their home, there will come a time when they no longer need to collect water in a bucket. The pipeline, once created, will continually bring water. Money works exactly the same. While you are working your everyday job, you need to find some time to create an ongoing income. Once this is set up, you are financially free.
Next week Tuesday I will explain different forms of income. In order to make money work for you, this is the first thing that you need to understand. Please subscribe to my blog and feel free to leave comments. Hopefully I can find success and show to you all that the everyday man can make it.
