Many
years ago my brother and I owned a sign company.
We had a 10,000 square foot building, employees,
overhead, everything. A friend showed up one
day, said he had a business opportunity, just
$29 to get started. I
passed on it, but my brother enrolled; six months
later he was making more on his $29 investment
than we were on our half million dollar investment.
After a few months we sold our sign business.

For
a number of years I got sidetracked by the promise of
faster, bigger money. I bought into the dazzle of ‘ground
floor opportunity!’ I became a top distributor
in several companies that over-promised and under-delivered
then eventually crumbled because the corporate partner
was either under-capitalized or dishonest or just didn’t
have its act together.
I
was so disgusted with those types of home-businesses
that I decided to jump back into traditional business
and my wife and I opened a Salon & Day Spa.
We worked very hard and built it up from 4 employees
to 40 and actually won an award in our city for “Best
of the Best”.
After
all these years, my brother stayed with the original
$29 business and had grown very successfully with it.
He pointed out that what I was really looking
for had been sitting under my nose the whole time.
I told him I had modest goals and limited time. I just
wanted to make enough to cover my house payments.
Equally
important, and much more exciting to me, was seeing
so many people also moving through the ranks and attaining
their own level of success. I love that! We’re
having a blast. I’m very thankful I put ‘get-rich-quick
schemes’ behind me and finally recognized that this
opportunity really works. And due to the incredible
support, training and online marketing systems The Prosperity
Team provides it doesn’t just work for me, it works
for everyone!
