Many of you know my friend Naomi from IttyBiz and read her blog. Many of you have read SEO School and know how awesome she is. She knows her stuff. Well, she has written an unflinchingly brave, soul-searching blog post. She manages to say a lot of things people are trying to articulate. I found myself nodding my head and thinking “oh my god she has so nailed this”. This post is just the beginning of something special.

Why We’re Broke, and How to Fix It

She doesn’t do the comment thing anymore, so feel free to come back here and talk about it behind her back in my comments. :)

  • I really enjoyed Naomi's post when I read it this morning. I'm always amazed at the things people will pay others to do for them. Sure you can say you can make more an hour doing something you're good at but will you really do extra plus then you have to factor in taxes and everything else. It also feels good to know you did something yourself.

    She also really hit it on the head about working for company and that's all you have for income. I'd be a lot more stressed about my job right now if I didn't have income from my website. Sure it would still be tough if I lost my day job.
  • Hello Michael,

    This reminds me of Rich Dad, Poor Dad. If you always do what you've always done, you'll only get what you've always gotten.

    Also, if your parents and mentors aren't wealthy and you want to become wealthy, why would you follow their advice. If you want to be rich, think like rich people do (which is very different from pay check to pay check workers).

    If you want more, you have to do more. I make fun of an entrepreneur friend of mine. He works so hard to not really work hard at all. He dips his hands in a little here, a little there, invests some over there all so he can create multiple streams of income - and I've learned a lot from him.

    If you don't mind the link, a wealthy mentor of mine wrote a wonderful article I think your readers will find very insightful on how to become wealthy. It's a free eBook:
    Wealth From Thin Air.

    Probably one of the best eBooks I've ever read and I follow these 10 steps in everything I do.
  • Hi Michael,

    Just gotta say that Naomi is really quite fabulous, isn't she? Wish she would turn those comments on, though! I will gladly come over here and discuss what a little marketing whore she is becoming! :-)
  • It was wonderfully written. Normally long posts lose me pretty quickly and I wanted more when I reached the end!
  • Wow, love Naomi's blog! Thanks!
