A brand new web site project that involve with no inventory. It’s a bran new e-commerce platform that will solve other people’s issues and will bring more business to the Internet.

This is just very interesting that I saw the news after I post Enough is never enough – are you a Middle-Class Millionaire? just few days ago. If you have not read this on MSN Money about 10 secrets that millionaires keep, you should read it. It’s very interesting.
In summary, what are those 10 secrets that millionaires keep?

My last weekend confession was almost two months ago. It was about where I was and where I will be going. Things have changed a little bit here. What has not changed is the same goal to set myself free from the day to day job and become a life style entrepreneur.
I set my goals two years ago to run my own online e-commerce business to support my life style. I have to admit that it is running OK, but it is not generating the expected income. It did pay off all the expenses that I throw into the business operation except my own time. It’s not generating the revenue that I expect two years ago. There are many reasons that I did not reach my milestones.

While enjoying my labor day long weekend at resort in Tucson, AZ, I saw the Untold Wealth Serial TV show on CNBC. I felt that I am one of them – the middle class millionaire. The poor people in the millionaire club.
Enough is never enough!
If you have not seen the untold wealth videos, you should take a look at them. It’s very interesting and very motivational to me. According to the report, there are more than 9 million millionaires in the USA. 49,000 U.S. households have a net worth between $50 million and $500 million. However, many of them don’t feel rich at all.

This is one of the most beautiful blue eyes I have ever seen! You may be wondering what the heck I am doing here about this post. First of all, Natalion is a very pretty girl with beautiful blue eyes. She is kind of getting famous on Flickr. You can find more great photos of her here.
This photo looks weird and a little scary, isn’t it? A huge eyes, that is so blue and so big, make you feel like watching a scary movie, isn’t it? That is exactly what this post is all about. You are NOT seeing the whole picture.

OK. My life have been great! Ever since I quit my job, I have been on and off on different projects. The brutal facts are that none of those projects made me who I dream to be and generate revenue fast enough. I have been reading many success stories about how people make good living on the fast lane to millions.
Recently, I spent quite amount of time talking to people, and learn from them. It’s never too late to change your life by driving on the fast lane. There are few things that you really need to have before you jump into the car and drive on the fast lane.

Where have I been lately?
This is the question I got from my friends, since my last blog post at Weekend Confession 11 – Where I was? Where will I be?
I know my readers tend to spend less time on reading my blog post. I know. I know. There are many reasons that people don’t tend to spend too much time on reading blog post. One of the reasons is that there are too many blog posts to read. I am one of them. I read hundreds blog posts a day. I scan the keywords and decide to stay or to leave. I also spent time on forums and social networking sites as well. Time is so limited.
In the past two weeks, I have tried many ways to boost my online business. I researched, practiced, discovered and made some conclusion about what I have found and done.
1. Internet Marketing Bubbles – I smell and felt the DOT COM Bubbles of Internet Marketing. If you are a blogger, you pretty much sense the trend of Internet Marketing crap out there. There are too many so-called Internet Marketing experts out there selling their service with single landing page. They want you to buy into their non-sense program to boost your sales. What exactly they teach you? They teach you how to do SEO, generate web site traffic and sell your own marketing crap.
2. MLM - I have heard this over and over again. I used to work for company selling herbs supplements with MLM (Multi-layer-Marketing). You get paid by commission. Now the MLM is invading the Internet Marketing industry. There is no physical product. You just pass on the information about how to get paid and how to make money online by having someone to join the program. Crap!
3. Fake Millionaire – Quick != Easy. There are many fake millionaires out there showing you video, program that can make you a millionaire. They never show you their net income. When I met with the local millionaire at Millionaire Club, I know they are real. They show you the personality of millionaire and approve that they worth millions. It’s all about cash flow. You can make million dollars a month, but you spent a million dollar a month too. Are you a millionaire?
Don’t get me wrong. Those people created the programs did make a lot of money. It does work for some people with really good social skills, because people are dragged by the “life time commission” type of business model. There is nothing wrong with MLM or selling nothing for big bucks. It’s just not the type of business I like to do to earn my hard-working money and to achieve my goals.
Recently, I have spent more time on learning from real millionaires who made hard working money in very short time. There are many success stories. There is no easy way to make big money, but there is fast way to make big fortune.
Here are some good articles to read.
My conclusion for my research is end up with just one formula.
The greater challenge + The unique opportunity = The secret to the success
I know you will ask what exactly that means. It may take me thousand words to describe what it means. It won’t make solid sense to you, if I can’t show you exactly what it is. One of the reasons why I started this blog is to show what I did and how I become the successful person. I don’t want to drag you to a crap program or sell you something that means nothing.
Until I can prove it, I don’t want to make you feel that I am just other self-claimed millionaires.
In the past two weeks, I did nail down my path and strategies of my business plan. I will become more aggressive and more risk taken.
End of story!
