Investment vs. Rebate

It always amazes me that people will go drop $300 on an item at your favorite store, to get a $100 rebate! You'll go dig in the couch cushions to get every last dime to get that item that is oh so important, then fill out the receipt or paper they give you and mail it in (with your own stamp) and wait 6-8 weeks for your money back. In the mean time, you probably only use that item, twice? Maybe it already broke! But, by golly- you got a great deal! Right?

But, you sit at home fretting about how to live paycheck to paycheck. You are given an opportunity for $300 that will guarantee a PROFIT on investment, not just a rebate. And you sit there with a million excuses why you don't have the money for it. You don't dig in your couch. You don't sell off the junk cluttering up your home. You don't quit buying your five dollar coffee every morning, you don't quit buying your mountain dew and snickers every afternoon, and you don't quit going out to the bars every weekend. You just keep on spinning in your cycle of paycheck to paycheck and you are miserable. Why? Why do people do this?

This is my thinking.  You can jump on rebate after rebate to "save money" on great deals, and continue living the way you are. Maybe you are happy. Maybe this works for you. I can probably safely say, you aren't happy. It doesn't work for you.

OR- you can invest in an opportunity that guarantee's profit! Invest $300 into a business that you can work for yourself, sell the products inside that opportunity for not just $300, but instead for $500 and walk away with MORE money than you put in! Doesn't that sound smart?  If you had the money, which would you choose? I'd rather have $200 more, not $200 less!

Profit will come with work, you can't just jump on the opportunity and then let the box of hope sit in your living room or closet and expect it to work. If you want change, REAL change in your life, you are going to have to work for it. Invest some time, invest some energy, invest some money- and see the rewards come in ten-fold!

I got tired of chasing rebates. Sometimes, they never even came! Then, I just smacked myself for falling for a no guaranty deal.  It's an exhausting life. Filled with let downs, self pity and despair.

I am so glad I jumped on an opportunity to invest, and have seen the profits come in ten-fold! Our family, while maybe not rich in terms of banking, is blessed beyond measure. My kids have happier parents. They are not starving, they have clothes and shoes and toys. We have all we need, and we get to do so much more with our lives! We can travel, we can spend more time together. So even beyond the monetary profit- we are rich beyond our wildest dreams!

If you are tired of chasing rebates, let's talk about a real opportunity!  I'm not going to lie. It will take time, this isn't a get rich quick thing. It's not a pyramid scheme. It's not a scam. It's a REAL business that can give you REAL profit and a long term, residual income  IF you are willing to work for it!  I want successful people on my success team- not rebate chasers! So, it's time to sit down and figure out what you REALLY want. :)
