 THEME: ''THE RIGHT BUSINES IN THESE UNCERTAIN ECONOMIC TIMES"
  Issue 1- May 10, 2012 Dear Readers,
 Back in the 70’s and 80’s, nearly anyone could get a job with one company and work for that company until retirement. Your company would give you a pension in addition to social security, and you never had to worry about feeding your family. You just had to worry about getting to work on time and doing your job. But those days are long gone. In today’s global economy, companies cannot afford to offer lifetime jobs, and often have to use contractors instead of employees. Business owners have to be willing to change quickly and to adapt to the ever-changing market demands. That trend will never shift back to like it was for our grandparents, because the world is a different place now. What this means is that we each have to take responsibility for creating your own future, and for teaching our children to do the same. The best way to secure your own future is to start creating multiple profitable revenue streams for yourself right now. You never want to have all of your eggs in one basket. If one of your revenue streams faces a rocky path, you need others that you can rely upon. In business, we often refer to this as “diversification”.
