Why is it that Doom and gloom are glorified and sensationalized by the media while hope, abundance and societal abundance are not even on the radar?   People will be glued to their TV set with the onset of a national disaster or horrific Hollywood divorce but will not listen to an ad in a newspaper or on the internet of how home based businesses and internet marketing secrets are changing the face of our economy in a seemingly underground society?  It’s as if people who seek out alternative information and subject matter to start their own entrepreneurial enterprise are part of some sort of malicious revolt or cult.

We do not have to look far to hear terms like foreclosure, bank failures, 3^rd quarter earnings plummeting, anti-psychotic prescriptions at all time highs, housing market slides again and all the other negative rhetoric.   It has become a pandemic within society for people to listen to the next presidential announcement to guide them in their next life decision.  Bailouts, Health Care Reform, Monetary policy and the War in Iraq are at the forefront of every uninformed Americans mind whom continues to believe that big government are somehow going to save us from collapse.  But, if people are willing to stand up and be counted there is a whole another freedom fighting regime that has sprung up in this Mega Information Era to inform, create, empower all walks of life to regain control of their time, money and family values in order to survive and thrive in this ever perplexing environment.

An underlying mindset has been formed within societal enslavement of the uninformed that we somehow are entitled from our government and cartel elitists to receive some sort of monetary bailout or handout from this elusive entity.  We must break this pattern if we are to have any hope in regaining control of our emotional, financial and socioeconomic destinies.

There are a couple age old sayings that can be applied to our current paradigm that can leave some clues on our next move.  “When things seem the worst, are usually when they turn”, “It feels like the calm before the storm” analogies are directly related to today’s unrest if we look closely.   After the Great Depression of the late twenties and early thirties, more opportunities for economic growth, individual millionaires, and emotional hysteria were created than any other time in history.  Even though most of us cannot give a firsthand account of those times, I think it’s fair to say times were tough, optimism was lean and many suffered depression, suicide and many other emotional issues due to the touch economic times.  With all of that, the informed and optimistic found ways to prosper and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves in times of calamity.  Ever notice that the “informed” always seem to come out on top?  What is it they know that we wish we did?  Am I defective in my thinking and do I need to be put on medication to deal with the economic stress?   Find out more:

In most cases, the answers are quite simple but have been deliberately hidden from the mainstream for selfish and monetary reasons of control, manipulation and greed by the cartel based money crooks.  People are people, information is information and mis-information is mis-information.  Could it be possible that in these times of unrest that we are getting ready again for yet another paradigmatic shift in our thinking, our way of life and our economic models to prepare the “informed” for the largest transformation of wealth this country has ever seen?  YEP!

You guessed it.   The internet is providing the framework and tools to be able to capture our share of wealth and prosperity within this paradigm shift.  With jobs being downsized and lost at an alarming rate, families losing their homes and the depression rate at all time highs it is high time we listen to mentors and coaches who have had the “rubber meet the road” rather than a boss, financial planner, psychiatry, mainstream doctors or any other societal manipulations that control our thoughts and emotions.  Enough is enough!  With the advent of internet commerce and the exponential transfer of information people now have access to launch their own entrepreneurial enterprise on the net to leverage their time, which is their most valuable resource.  Home based businesses are a catch phrase just like cell phones and I Pods but there are certain key components one must look for or they can get caught up in the maze of information just like the “no roaming” craze in that ear piece.

There are over 79 million Google searches every month for people wanting to fire their boss forever and get out of that cubicle of enslavement but also comes that stigma of “I will get scammed on the internet” if I listen to anyone on the internet.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  There are a few simple steps you can take to launch your own “legitimate” and provable system and conduct a business from home in your pajamas.  First, you must do your research and use commons sense.  If a business opportunity will take anyone with a pulse and promises 50k in 30 days than it is most likely a scam.  If there is no application process just like a job would have or no upfront due diligence or financial commitment than it’s probably a scam or a Multi level scheme with no proprietary product lines to back the model.  There must a proven, systematic model with true, tangible products to back the compensation plan.  Bottom line, if your only hope is to sign up 300 people under you, hope 50% of them do their job, and you can make 1-2k per month if those things happen, this is NOT a viable model.  Lastly, there must be real people, real coaching and approachability to the system.  Have you ever signed up for something without talking to anyone?

We have proven our financial model is broke, the industrial and technological and dot com busts are over and we can no longer rely on a boss or some perceived expert in any area of our life so our only hope is to seek out mentors and elite coaches who have “walked in your shoes”.  They have a definitive WHY driving them to success.  They fired their boss and are living a life they have created and are willing to help you find your WHY!  WHY not entrust someone you can communicate with about trials and tribulations and who has a vested interest in helping you live the life you deserve?  Here is a little secret to finding the opportunities that exist when times look the worst.  Talk to people!  We have become way too isolated in our cubicle and hibernation in our own troubled world.  If you are willing to stand up and work as hard for yourself in Free Enterprise wealth creation as you did for your boss,  it’s time to find opportunity in the times looking the worst.     www.wakeupcents.com copyright, Scott Lifer  2009

Today’s financial economy is such a mystical, un-tangible atmosphere of banking, mutual funds, stocks and bonds and the mainstream 401k that no one seems to know where to turn for answers and solutions that will allow them any sort of stability with respect to their financial picture.  We have proven that our current state of turmoil in virtually all sectors of our economy are challenging our belief systems about how Wall Street, the government and influential power centers like the FDA, Pharmaceutical, media and banking cartels operate.  With all the sensationalism in our media about the Recession, the money problems, unemployment and the current oval office woes, how can anyone feel confident in what lies ahead?  The bottom line is that most Americans feel so isolated in their own little world, especially when it comes to an emotionally intense subject like their money, they are appetent for knowledge, answers and some much needed guidance as to what’s next?

To look forward with a new set of eyeglasses we must first scrutinize the past to see clearly.  With respect to money and all its nuances, there are some simple questions we must dissect in retrospect to begin to change our mindset, and its only then we can begin to ask a new set of questions of where to entrust our money.  First, we must challenge the culprit itself.  Our antiquated educational system may have worked in the industrial and technological ages whereby many sectors of the economy were hiring jobs to keep up with demand for new technologies but that model is no longer valid in today’s Mega Information and Internet Commerce Era.  Aren’t we proving daily with the unemployment rates hovering around 10%, the JOB (J.ust O.ver B.roke), top down mentality is not working?  There is no stability in any sector of the corporate world, manufacturing or technology anymore with most savvy innovators realizing they can produce goods and services for a ¼ the cost in 3^rd world countries.  Virtual Assistants are springing up like wildflowers taking over the old school office manager or desk clerks.  High Tech computers and advanced robotics have all but replaced the out dated human production lines and piece work.  Why are we continuing to educate our leaders of tomorrow to go to school, memorize all the archaic books, go to college and memorize more books, give them 0 knowledge and education on Free Enterprise wealth creation, Entrepreneurship and overall money management tactics and tools, but we tell them to get a job and enslave them for life in the debt trap?

Secondly, why do we manipulate and control people’s thoughts and ideals to give their hard earned money to a Broker or Planner?  How and when was it ever perceived that a guy in a fancy suit can take better care of our money than we can?  When did we ever teach anyone about such financial tools as a financial calculator for basic calculations pertaining to our everyday lives, passive income, residual income, debt based societies, cartel based economics or any other non mainstream but powerful information?  Wall Street, the banking and credit card companies and their power centers have done a masterful job in enslaving us to a “money trap” that has become a way of life.

Thirdly, and probably the most important of all, what brainwashing entity told America that their 401k was a good, long term investment strategy?  Why would any person with even the most basic financial knowledge ever believe that giving their hard earned money to a “system of cartel money crooks” would provide them security or freedom of choice?  It’s actually quite simple, if you never stop the hamster wheel, they will never see straight and their mind, body and spirit will always be circling in a maze of mistruth and manipulation!  This is exactly what has been happening to America for decades and probably centuries with our current system of control and greed.  When you have no control over your money, you have no choice, and when you lack choice you have no freedom, no freedom leads to despair and despair leads to anxiety, depression and isolationism and lethargic behavior.  Sound familiar?  The crooks are winning as of now BUT slowly people are awakening!

The Internet Revolution has created an entire new community of free thinkers, fed up corporate burnouts, home based business entrepreneurs and network marketers realizing the real key to any long term financial success is not an event of the individual investment itself, but rather a coterie of programs, systems and coaching in Free Enterprise that allow you the freedom of choice and a burning desire to figure out things on their own, instead of relying on their boss or personal enslavement of their time.

The secret is really no secret at all but when you are tied to a job or a “box of bewilderment” it’s hard to see the forest through the trees.  To change our situation we must ask different questions.  The 1^st one is quite elementary really.  Why do McDonalds, Subway and Dominoes Pizza NEVER fail?  You have never seen a Sale or lease sign on these buildings have you?  Why?  They have a system that is unparalleled and they can plug anyone into their drive thru marketing machine and make a profit.  They are NOT in the restaurant business. They are in the marketing, branding and real estate business.  What is the 1^st major sign you see when driving down the interstate looking for the next exit?  They are masters at creating the imagery, signage for branding and positioning themselves in the industry as a leader and market dominator.  Subway, after hiring Jared, became an iconic figure with respect to rebranding their entire model to a “healthy alternative to fast food”.  Dominoes Pizza will never be known for their fantastic pizza.  They will forever be branded in stone as the market phrase, “Delivered in 30 minutes or less or it’s FREE” dominators.   The bottom line, systems prevail and people fail.  People let their emotions and pre conceived notions drive their business, a well oiled machine and system will prevail every time.  This is the exact opportunity that exists in Free Enterprise wealth creation on the internet right NOW.  It’s not a single event like a get rich quick scheme investment, but a journey of empowerment and financial concepts not known to many.  Coaches and mentors are replacing bosses and corporate hierarchies.  They operate on a unilateral platform where everyone is treated equal and put into groups of their skills sets with personal mentoring for online success.  The real power in an internet and home based business is the leveraging power of the internet.  It’s been stated that over 67% of all of our socioeconomic commerce is now done over the internet.  People are desperately searching a way out of the debt rat race and we can provide the tools.

Another key component is networking with different people who think outside the conventional box.  To increase your net worth, you must change your network.  There are so many people making more in a month on the internet and home businesses with personal freedoms and choices than most executives make in a year.  Why?  The systems are designed to help each other realize their goals and dreams and leverage and harness each other’s skill sets instead of working for dollars in the highest tax bracket possible in the employee model.  If you have a model that is built upon leverage and helping people succeed online, you now have a formula that enhances the human spirit instead of smashing it.

Lastly, you must get mad.  Turn that energy into positive energy seeking out knowledge about the Free Enterprise network and how it all works to benefit you.   You have the power inside to change but you MUST be willing to do what others won’t.  Work as hard on themselves and their abilities as they ever would for a boss.  Your new financial journey can be a sweet one if you tap into the power of coaches and mentors rather than entrusting your boss.  If you are willing to do what most others will not, you can have what most others never will.  Join us in the financial journey on the Internet, it’s a mouse click away.

On the eve of winter time in 2009′ it’s hard to predict what the future holds for our economic outlook, but one thing is for sure, we are in for the worst recession this country has ever seen. Why? There are only a select few people around in today’s society from the Great Depression of 1929 who can speak to the severity and similarities of the two.

With bank foreclosures mounting like the mountainous winter snow, jobless rates approaching 10% and up, financial markets and personal investments floundering, for us to begin our launch out of this turmoil we must first be willing to admit just how severe this downturn is and the repercussions of such a slide. It is a certainty that jobs within certain markets like the auto and airline industries are gone forever and weak employment overall may linger for many years to come. Lower standards of living could quickly become a long term reality for a large share of households and just like iconic investors Robert Kiyosaki and Donald Trump predict, there will only be two classes of citizens, the rich and the poor.

There are certain key factors that show us that this crash is more widespread and seems to have more lasting implications. First, the construction and auto industries in the past have led the way for more favorable economic indicators but with the ruination of Detroit automakers and the influx of new and foreclosed homes, this doesn’t seem likely anytime soon. Second, the job market is caught up in a never ending circle anomaly whereby US spending continues to suffer due to the unemployment rates but businesses are just not likely to hire back any jobs because consumers are not spending in any parts of the retail sector.

Thirdly, even with the SBA (small businesses association) loans from the government trying to boost some capital into small and mid-sized businesses, they are still struggling to secure these loans to expand our create jobs. Many of the upper income households are restrained from doing any sort of real estate investing as they have taken big losses in the equity in their primary residence not to mention most of their other investment portfolio. Probably the biggest impact right now is the inability of investors to use the age old investment tool of OPM (using Other People’s Money, namely banks) for leverage as the overall lending market has restricted it’s parameters for borrow.

As people are glued to their radios and televisions to get the latest “bailout or bust” package from our trusty governmental powers, it’s eminent that the psyche of most Americans has changed forever. The massive state of isolationism that people feel is coupled with an overwhelming feeling of disquietude for our entire socioeconomic model. The lifeblood of most is their job and the perceived security it provides for their family. But we have proven with this latest collapse that relying on another person or entity to secure your future is the biggest risk of all.

The good news is that there are some immediate steps we can take to enhance our current mental state and use the helplessness we feel about finding another job and turn that into positive energy into finding a system of coaches and trainers in a Free Enterprise network. The financial model is shifting rapidly to an internet commerce and wealth creation platform. People are searching a legitimate home based business just as rapidly as they are searching monster or hot jobs because they are fearful that even if they do find another job, what is their assurance that this one will be any more secure?

If people are willing to work as hard on themselves and their internal skill sets as they ever would for their boss, than they could realize their dreams and goals much quicker and with a feeling of empowerment rather than entitlement. The internet is a Gold Rush right now with people creating wealth in others in internet marketing and social networking. It has provided the platform and opportunity to make an income that you never thought possible because of the programming and brainwashing of our current system.

But no more, people are awakening to a system of mentorship and coaching that is unprecedented in today’s society. We will look back on this time 20 years from now and see that this time in history created more internet millionaires than any other time in history. It is a proven fact that when times look the worst is usually when the most opportunities come to light. The cream will rise to the top and you have the opportunity to be right in the thick of the latte’.
