Hi welcome back to Sara's Wealth ideas:

(if you are a regular reader) feel free to write to me for help with your own ideas or any of mine.... You can write me at: asktaylor1991@yahoo.com Like I always say, million dollar ideas are floating around all the time.You as a human being have the ability to change your circumstances any time you honestly choose to do so.... That being said lets move on to some more wealth ideas....This is how Joe. H. came upon his million dollar idea. Remember your higher power is always ready to do the same for you....

1. Car Intermediary;

Joe could not find a job in his hometown. Since the mill had closed he had been struggling to feed his family and was on the verge of losing his home. He knew he had to come up with something. While sitting down to his meal of rice for the 3rd time that week, Joe racked his brain. His wife's face looked drawn and tight. Fear of the future had them both barely speaking anymore. Joe glanced out the front window and spied his run down Chevy. Man he wanted a new car! Hell, for that matter he wanted a new home new life ...... He just wanted to make things better for his poor wife. She had put up with so much! He watched as his disabled neighbor Benny struggled to get out of his new car. For one second Joe was jealous and the next he felt guilty. His neighbor was disabled and had been since birth. What kind of jerk would feel jealousy and anger instead of sympathy. He wiped his mouth and ran out to help Benny. Benny smiled gratefully up at Joe as he gently guided him from the car. "I had to wait 3 months for them to equip it so I could drive it and still they claim they don't have the part to help me exit it- it's so frustrating" Benny sighed. "I've been down there arguing with those people many times, and in my condition -that's a lot on me!" Joe nodded sympathetically, as he helped Benny into the house. But having a captive audience was too much for Benny. He showed Joe the mountain of paperwork, he had incurred trying to get the part that would enable him to exist freely from the car. He talked incessantly about how hard it was on him to go through this. Joe was sympathetic, but he could not help thinking-"at least you've got the money to buy that part and that car and any damn thing else you want!" But when he looked at Benny's tired face, he felt guilty. It wasn't Benny's fault he was broke and out of work. He suddenly had an idea. "Ben, whadda say I find that part for you for a fee?" he asked. Benny's face instantly brightened. "yes please -I'll gladly pay it. I'm so tired of trying to fight with these people-yes please!" Joe suddenly felt optimistic for the first time in months. He and Benny came to a fee agreement and within 2 days Joe had not only located the part but had arranged for the part to be installed in the car. He had the car back to Benny by the end of the week. Joe even had it washed he was -grateful for the fee he desperately needed. Benny, also was beside himself with gratitude. He not only paid Joe the 200.00 fee in cash, he called some of his disabled friends and referred them to Joe. Within 2 weeks Joe had a thriving business finding parts for not only disabled people but all kinds of special needs Medical, pregnancy, young, old or any kind of need. He would haggle with the dealer and save the client sometimes thousands thereby making them more than glad to pay his fee. He also made sure the cars were delivered clean and installed. Before he knew what was happening he had to turn clients away. There were just not enough hours to help everyone. He had to limit his business to 30 cars per month.But at 200.00 a pop he was making a killing and still had plenty of time to spend with his family. Now they moved from their house because they wanted to not because they had to. Joe and his family moved to a home 3x larger and bought a brand new car for both he and his wife. This is a business anyone can start. You can use newspaper ads or flyer's or just business cards. Depending on how fast you want to grow. You will need to have a large metropolitan area nearby, as it will be hard to do this in a very small town. But this can be adapted to finding homes, apartments vehicles or anything else. Use your imagination. You really do have the answers inside of you. Just ask and then listen.......But most of all -just do it!

2. Trucking to a fortune:

There is a guy, my sister -in law, and I went to, to buy my brother a truck for his birthday. You know the custom made miniature trucks that men love. She actually paid 1000.00 for this truck! I could not believe it. The truck had working lights, sound and lift that actually lifted! The guy, Mike told us that this is one of his least expensive trucks! He says they sell from 800-4000! I was shocked. He showed us how he goes onto websites and takes pictures of the truck being built and how people email him with the order confirmation before the trucks are even finished. He makes over 10.000 per month doing a hobby that he absolutely loves. He says he would never work for anyone ever again and that he now has money and free time. He said very few people know about the money in this business. He has a store on eBay and he buys the trucks whole and sells them for parts because the parts are extremely hard to find. He says he started making hand made trucks because he wanted ones that were different. He also wanted to show people who bought his truck parts what they could do with the parts. The guys went crazy over his hand made trucks and they are constantly on back order. His parts business also exploded! He is now turning jobs down because he does not need more money. Isn't that a wonderful thought "to just not need any more money!" This can be you as well. Find a hobby you love. Don't bother trying to do trucks if you hate trucks -your apathy will come through, and prevent you from being successful. Pick something you love and then find communities on the Internet who share your interest. Take pictures and set up a selling email or use pay pal. People love pay pal because they feel safe knowing you do not have their personal info...This man makes 10 k per month but he could easily double that if he wanted to. He was relaxed and happy. Too many people are stressed and tired from trying to make it on a dead end job. Think outside the box, and see what you come up with....You can also write me for help remember.....

3. Letter riches;

This idea is so cute I had to include it. A few years ago, a friend of mine was the mommy of a precious little 4 year old, named Samantha. We called her Sam for short, but anyway. One day Sam wrote a letter to Santa and carefully signed it and sent it to the 'Norf poel' (as she spelled it) We thought it was cute and that she would forget about it, but everyday she ran up to the house and asked "mommy, did Santa send me mail?' I could tell my friend felt worse and worse having to tell her child the letter did not come. Finally, I went to the dollar store, bought some child's stationary and sat my friend down so we could compose a letter for Sam. Lisa, my friend was very reluctant to do this as she did not want to lie to her child. I convinced her that it was harmless and would make Sam very happy so we composed a letter and sent it to "Sam-Santa's special little friend" Sam was ecstatic when she got the letter, she read it until it was falling apart and showed it to all of her little friends. Soon Lisa was swamped with parental requests for more letters. In no time at all Lisa had a nice little sideline business writing and mailing letters all over the US. She advertises in magazines like home business, and direct mail. She charges up to 8.00 depending on how far and how much detail the letter requires. She still thanks me for starting her on this path. She loves it and makes pretty good money (about 1500.00 per week. Not bad for about 20 hours of work per month. Like I said, there are million dollar ideas floating around all the time. Lisa thinks I was the brainchild behind her idea but that thought must have occurred to her before I ever said anything! We ALL have million dollar ideas every day the point is to write them down and bring them to fruition....

Wealth Ideas for the entrepreneurs:

#1 Build yourself a new house with doll houses!

When we lived in Hawaii years ago, (when I was a child) I remember going to kaleheo high school. We had a home economics class, with a teacher who considered herself to be very resourceful and wanted us to be as well. One day she gave us an assignment that we would have to create something that could be sold for a good profit. It had to be something we created, and we had create our own demand for it.I remember going home and racking my brain trying to figure out what I could make. Unfortunately for me, I'm one of those people with so many talents it's extremely hard to pin myself down to one. (I'm not bragging, just being honest. ) I got those talents from my dad who was the same way. Anyway, while sitting on my bed trying to decide how best to show off and make the rest of the class look bad, my eyes fell on the dollhouse daddy had make for me for X-mas. It was a handmade 3 story house with interchangeable walls stairs, rails etc. It was a work of art, and my favorite 'toy'. I decided to see if I could make a prototype of mine which would be lighter and easier to carry to school. I took a large cardboard box and cut it open. I used hangers to support the 2nd floor. I used aluminum foil to make mirrors and basically let my imagination run wild. I took some old tile cracked it up and made a kitchen floor (to resemble marble) I cut doors and windows and made curtains and used long silver bobby pins as rods. I made furniture and used shelf liner as wall paper and even made a little fake playboy magazine for the coffee table. The next day I had my brother bring it in when the teacher asked for my project. I unwrapped it dramatically and was shocked at the reaction. I expected the girls to be interested but never the guys! The kids practically bombarded me trying to find out how to get a 'real one' (remember this one was made of cardboard) They flooded me with offers of money and begged me to make one for them. I easily won most valuable project and best of all I found a doll house maker (daddy did not want to make anymore) and gave him the orders.He was delighted to have the business! He made the houses and had a repeat and steady biz making the furniture and accessories. I got 25% just for passing on the orders and the cheapest one was 200.00! I was making hundred per month doing nothing! My point is God has given you talent too. We all have talent at something. Whatever you want in life you have everything inside of you, you need to get it! Visit a hobby store and see what peaks your interest. Go home and duplicate it, If you love to do it -there is somebody who will want to buy it from you. I look back at that experience in Hawaii and I realize I could have turned that into a million dollar business...and so can you. You could choose to just make the furniture or household accessories. The sky really is the limit. I know some of the furniture I made for my dollhouse bore a tiny label saying 'liberty house' Liberty house was a very exclusive store in Hawaii and everyone wanted to shop there. The kids went crazy over all the details. That's what makes a million dollar business, the details. If you create something people can get anywhere, it will have limited value. It is the details that make it different and more valuable than everyone else's......Remember this when it comes to hobbies and you are almost sure to make a million-Everyone wants to brag and say... 'this is an exclusive", or "this is handmade" or They will fudge the truth a little and say "this was made just for me, and there's not another one like this" When you can give your customers the right to say those words, they will make you rich! And all it takes is making each one a little different and maybe attaching a label like 'one of a kind creations by________"or miniature condos by exclusive creations' you get the idea.....

#2 Need an extra 500-1000 per month? ----Be a clipping service!

If you look in the phone book, you will find listing for clipping services. (or, clipping bureaus) What they do is clip news items from the paper for their clients and get paid a set fee. You can offer to be a reader for them. All you would do is read different papers and find items of interest and send to them. If you live near a large city, you will find several companies like this. If you are in a small area, there will not be many. If they will not hire you, simply become their competition. People do not realize it is much easier for the average person to become the competition of a large established company for one reason. It is that-big companies do not listen to their customers! They have gotten so big, they no longer think the individual person matters. They are looking at the whole pie and not a slice of it. The problem is, once you have this mindset, your business is likely to suffer a setback. You see the customer can sense this attitude. But back to the lesson, -To start your own clipping service, do this:Advertise in papers, mags or use press release to get free publicity from the newspaper. You need to make your work stand out. How? laminate your clips of special events and send them to people. People will gladly pay a few dollars for a nice memento of a special occasion in their lives. Also you can call various companies and ask if they use clipping services. You can build your clientele up as high as you want. Many magazines and papers would fold without the help of clipping services. This is a business that would be good for the handi-capped or shut ins etc. People who need extra money but are unable for whatever reason to go outside and earn it (or just want to be in) This business will NOT make you rich, but you can earn some good part time income without much trouble....Advertise your way to millions!This is a business not for the feint of heart. The truth is almost anything can become a billboard and an advertising post. One enterprising young man made bus stops for his city completely free. The catch was he sold ad space on the bus stops and made a killing. All over the America, people are getting rich selling advertising. The young girl who invented 'yearbook.com' at 15! put her schools yearbook on the Internet completely free. other schools of course followed suit and begged her to do it for them. The service is completely free but the advertising this young lady sells, makes her millions of dollars per year! check out yearbook .com to see the set up of her company. This is something anyone could have thought of. Who would have thought yearbooks were not online in the year 2005! (when she started.) One enterprising young man bought a raggedy truck, cut it in half lengthwise (to get massive attention) and sold advertising on the remaining half. Businesses fought to get their company on the strange truck. He now makes over 150.000 per year (after taxes )just riding around in the strange truck! His business is called 'the quack'er Ads.

#3 Bench the big bucks!!!

Here is a million dollar idea you can start today if you are serious about changing your life

if you are good with your hands or know someone who is: Go to your city counsel meeting and offer free bus benches. Tell them you will pay for them. Most will NOT turn you down. Then make them or have someone else make them. They must be sturdy and long lasting. Metal or concrete will last much longer than wood. Once the benches are made and delivered, you own them! That means you can sell ad space! You do not need to even contact anyone, simply place an ad for your ad agency on the bench. Or put a ad saying 'to advertise on this bench call _________. Companies will get the idea and call to ask how to get their ads on the bench. The beauty of this is you will sell all the space because when people are sitting with nothing to do, they WILL read the ads, and companies know this. Also, this business will make you money 24 hours per day 7 days per week! With you doing nothing else!!! Did you hear that -you won't have to work overtime or go in on weekends to make more money . Simply add more benches! You can easily expand into other towns and make millions! Most people walk past million dollar opportunities everyday because they are not trained to see them! I would call this business something catchy like rent-a-bench or Sara's bench biz! Something catchy like that. Like I always say million dollar ideas are floating in the air, you only have to pull one out and use it! Good luck guys and you can always write me for help or advice (my readers only please) at asktaylor1991@yahoo.com Thanks for tuning in-see you next time-S
