Why Invest?
Are you actively investing in commercial real estate? Do you have a commercial mortgage lender on your team?
Well if you answered no to either of those questions then consider this: Why should someone invest at all, let alone in commercial real estate.
Well because you've worked hard all your life. You too have a vision. You can see the dream! But there’s not enough money in the bank. Someday you say.
Well That's The Mantra of The Masses.
Are you any different? You better be. Because according to recent insurance industry statistics, by the age of 65 most people are either dead or dead broke.
Now we’ve all heard the statistics that 94-98 percent of Americans (depending on who you listen to) will retire with little or nothing to show for a lifetimes worth of work.
That’s disgusting! That’s unacceptable! At least it should be to you. No other way to put it.
Don't believe me? Then think about this: Is the average age of a Walmart or McDonald's worker going up or down?
First though let’s be a little conservative. Then that means 94 percent have failed in their dreams to be financially secure, 5 percent are considered to be secure, and only 1 percent is considered wealthy.
How Many of These People Had a Plan?
Did you know that if you plan to retire on only 50 thousand per year, you will need over 1 million dollars saved and working for you? And a lot more if the Fed keeps printing money the way it has recently.
But can you save this much working for someone else? What kinds of sacrifices would you have to make? A lifetime of sacrifice?
Well you’ve heard that you cannot get wealthy working for someone else. That has to be true because you’re getting paid just enough not to quit.
The Only Solution Must Be to Work For Self.
But what if you went and got a degree so you could be a professional making lots of money and have a good lifestyle for yourself?
Awesome, but have you paid off all those student loans yet? Most haven't and there are a growing number defaulting every day. BTW, thats still a job.
The average income of a family in the free enterprise system is approx. 26 thousand dollars per year. And the average home based business generates nearly twice as much as the average household income working in their day jobs.
So selling products on EBay, or participating in whatever the latest flavor of the month MLM (Multi Level Marketing) program is, won’t get it done.
"Well I'll make it by investing in real estate". I'll buy lots of houses, rehab them, sell them or rent them out". Well your half way there but it still sounds like a job to me.
Let’s Be Very Clear – You Must Do Something Else, or Else!
While most everyone wants to be rich and live on a beach somewhere, not everyone will do that little something extra that gets them there.
But you need to be doing a little something extra or you’re going to be part of that 95 percent group yourself.
OK but does it have to be put into motion now?
Yes, because the clock is always running, and time waits for no man.
Your time and money must compound together as part of your solution and investment strategy. Remember that:
94-98 Percent of Americans Retire w/Little or Nothing to Show For a Lifetime of Work.
Out of the 1 percent that is considered wealthy, approx. 3 out of 4 started their own business and or were commercial real estate investors.
They leveraged their time and income potential. How did the rest of the 1 percent get there?
What Percentage of 1% is Commercial Real Estate?
It would seem to make sense then to follow a path that is overwhelmingly the choice of the wealthy 1 percent.
But if you truly believe that you don’t have a spare 60 minutes a day to invest in your future, and you’ve read to this point.
Then you’re either fooling yourself and not motivated enough to bettering your lifestyle or that of your family.
You must do something that will allow you to quit your current job (if you want to). Free up your life for more important things, like …………..you fill in the blank.
Or you need to really invest a little time making some investments, and start a business that will provide you residual income for life.
Something with enough residual income to continue to pay the bills. This gets you to the secure level.
How Did the Wealthy 1 Percent Get There?
They found a good mentor and formed a solid team around themselves. They were taught the insiders way of fast tracking their goals and getting to that 1 percent plateau.
The alternative is obvious. You can do nothing beyond what you do today.
You just don’t want to be working until you drop dead or worse, become dependant on someone else to take care of you by age 65.
No matter what, you me everyone will be a part of that first chart shown above, there’s no escaping it. However only you get to decide on which piece!
You Get Out of Life, What You Put Into It.
