Doug Boettcher's Blog: October 2007

Wednesday, October 31, 2007. Making Money Is Like Loosing Weight. Making money is kind of like losing weight. It’s simple, but it’s hard. I mean, it’s real simple. It's not fun. It's not glamorous. There are no magic bullets. How do you lose weight? You consume fewer calories than you "spend". Do that, and you won't get fat. That’s also how you get out of debt – you spend less money than you make. It's so simple. But you can find volumes and volumes of books about it. Your Insurance Premiums ARE too high.

Doug Boettcher's Blog: Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
http://dougboettcher.blogspot.com/2007/12/who-wants-to-be-millionaire.html
Monday, December 10, 2007. Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? Let me tell you who the Millionaires are. There are basically five ways people become a Millionaire in America - a first generation Millionaire. Unless your last name is Gates, Walton, Rockefeller, Kennedy, Hilton or something like that or if you don't have a trust fund that has you set up for the rest of your life just because you were born, you've got to do something to make it happen. Now, instead of being content with one rental, you could mak...

Doug Boettcher's Blog: Becoming Omnipresent
http://dougboettcher.blogspot.com/2007/12/becoming-omnipresent.html
Wednesday, December 5, 2007. How would you like to be everywhere at once - not limited by time or space? In other words, to be omnipresent. Though it seems impossible, it has always been within your grasp. Some have done it with purpose and succeeded. Others have done it without expecting omnipresence because that's just who they were. Others have done it seeking praise and gained nothing but ridicule. Your Insurance Premiums ARE too high. Visit Douglas Boettcher at www.CutYourPremium.com. The Art Of The...

http://dougboettcher.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 18, 2007. Taking Your First Steps With Confidence. About 10 years ago, I started speaking at an annual Millionaire's conference. I soon discovered that I was usually the only speaker at that conference who hadn't gone bankrupt. Everyone who spoke had been bankrupt at least once. Accountants won't help you with that. Accountants take the numbers you give them and put them in a little box and then they compute what the end result is - and that's what you pay. They don't give you f...I was...

Doug Boettcher's Blog: Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? Part 4
http://dougboettcher.blogspot.com/2007/12/who-wants-to-be-millionaire-part-4.html
Sunday, December 16, 2007. Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? The fourth major source of self-made Millionaires in America are sales people and sales consultants. Five percent of self-made Millionaires are sales people at the top of their field. So, those four groups account for 99% of all self-made Millionaires in America. The remaining 1% comprise the fifth category, which is everything else (e.g. lottery winners, legal settlements, professional sports players, rock stars, celebrities, etc.). I found a goo...

Doug Boettcher's Blog: Statistics and Stereotypes
http://dougboettcher.blogspot.com/2007/12/statistics-and-stereotypes.html
Friday, December 7, 2007. Eighty percent of self-made millionaires in America started with nothing. Of those self-made millionaires, 80% of their kids blow the fortune. So, just looking at two generations of millionaires - one that started with nothing, became a millionaire, handed it off to their children, and they blew it. So where we start really isn't that important. The stereotype tells us what will happen to most people in a group, but it might not be accurate for any given individual. You foll...

Doug Boettcher's Blog: Guidelines for "Lottery" Winners
http://dougboettcher.blogspot.com/2007/12/guidelines-for-lottery-winners.html
Tuesday, December 4, 2007. Guidelines for "Lottery" Winners. Have you ever won the Lottery, sold your business, won the Big Jackpot, or received an unexpected inheritance? These situations have one thing in common for most people - they are unprepared for the windfall. They don't know what to do with the money. Nothing wrong with doing those things. But, what trips up most "winners" is their timing - its "when" they do it that's the problem. Choosing the wrong "when" is what gets them into trouble. So, d...
