The Importance of Residual Income

The great thing about residual income is that it's YOURS.
You can get a regular check every week or month once a
solid foundation is built and you can be wasting the day on
a beach or somewhere exotic, skiing down a mountain in
Europe, sailing in the Caribbean, traveling around the US
in your new camper, or just sitting at home enjoying your
freedom with your family!

Imagine, if you will, a weekly check that comes in like
clockwork. What would this mean to you and those you love?
Let's compare that to a day JOB, which is also called,
"Linear," Income, or a payment that you receive from going
in to a place of business day-after-day, week-after-week,
year-after-year and giving your employer much of your time
and efforts. You receive your check on payday in the form
of wages and/or commissions while paying the most taxes the
law will allow.

Having a "regular" day job or getting paid by commission is
still a "one-shot-deal." In other words, if you quit or
get fired, that check stops immediately and you are out
looking for another job so you don't end up on the street.
It is a sad fact that many people are ONE PAYCHECK away
from being homeless!!! This is what living
"paycheck-to-paycheck" really means.

There are many different ways to create this "residual"
income. You could write a best-seller, invent something,
get lucky in the stock market, or own a successful life
insurance company. Most residual income-generators are
difficult and require an investment of quite a bit of money
or require special skills and talents and lots , not to
metion lot of time and effort. Do any of those sound like
something that would be realistic in your life?

Most folks know that another supposed source of residual
income is MLM, multi-level marketing. But even if you were
the best in the world at building an MLM business, 95% of
the unfortunate people you recruit into your business would
be making little, or in most cases, NO money at all! That
wipes out any hope for long-term residual income for you.

Most MLM companies also require what is called an
"auto-ship," where month after month you cringe when UPS
drops a bunch of nutritional products on your doorstep that
cost you from $100 to sometimes HUNDREDS of dollars per
month! If you are like most folks, you can never drink the
"power drink," or choke down all those pills, so your
closet or your garage stacks up with boxes of "stuff" from
your latest MLM business!

Not only that, but most people can't sustain that hundred
or so dollars every month for very long. Like you, most
people never even make enough to cover their auto ship, let
alone the money needed to market the products well enough
to make any serious money!

So what most people need to do is come up with an option
that will allow them to earn residual income without a lot
of skills and talent or a lot of money, like what it would
cost to buy your own insurance company. You need a simple
plan for residual income. Fortunately, there are options
for those of us without a lot of money and a lot of special
skills and talents that will allow you to earn a residual
income. Residual income is very important to your long
term financial goals but it eludes most people since they
don't even know what it is. But now that you know what it
is, its time for you to start working your plan to earn
residual income.
