      Follow-up Question

      So I have a follow-up question.

      Let's assume 'money grows on trees.' Meaning; Money is easy to earn and it will continue to be there for you when you need it.

      My question is, 'What are some actions one could take to make this a reality?'

      Thanks for all your imput, I'm sure I won't be the only one benefiting from this discussion.

      Cheers,

        Speaking of sales which usually includes seminars, books, purchases, skimpy commissions, paid training, ad nauseum the hapless nonsuccessful salesperson is left thinking they just were not working hard enough if they do not make a really good salary.

        Sure sales may take a lot of hard work over possibly a year if not more, slowly building contacts, but people need to watch out for this blooming seminar business and late night tv ads telling all how to make mega money in sales with littlem more effort than doing 'cold calling' that usually nets you a hang up or an escort to the door to leave.

        The sales market is saturated.

        People who are making money at sales are selling these get rich succes ideologies.

        And don't even get me started on pyramid schemes.

        Car sales, pharmaceutical sales and maybe real estate brokering might be some more doable sales at this point - but getting rich of these right now does not seem as likely.

          Money at the root of the tree is "infrastructure funding". That's the logical place to put in the investments if you're a country, or a foundation, or a long-term investor. The better the root is funded, the bigger the trunk, and so the bigger the tree you can have.

            If I may ask MoneyBlogger especially with your reference to sales and lots of calls on people to reach a magic number of sales that ergo = lush cash -
            what sales exactly are you talking about?

            What is the product.
