Ain't No Mountain High Enough.. To Keep Me From Getting to You (My Number)
Ain’t No Mountain High Enough… To Keep Me From Getting to You (My Number)
Debbie has told you in previous posts how difficult it was for her to come to grips with both her Life’s Purpose and her Number/Date; yet, she will be the first to tell you how important this has all been!
Given her low starting point, and large Number, she will need to create a publishing empire if she is going to reach it in time. Somehow, I think she just might …

Ahh, AJC… helping me look a little better by starting me out with a networth of $1,000 (really, it’s negative …a lot! but the numbers won’t work in the online calculator when you try starting with a negative number!!)
The size of my mountain (my desired number) has decreased from when we first started this experiment – however, the steepness of that mountain has increased because I shortened the period of time I want to take to GET my number.
This tells me I can be pretty sure I won’t be relying on CD’s or Index Funds to accumulate financial wealth! I’ve always known that my path would involve businesses, and I’m perfectly happy to be focusing there (although also open to other strategies including real estate, once I am able). Even happier that I’ve already started!
I currently have a business plan and the foundation of an online business in place that was started exactly 5 months ago. That means – it’s online and operational. I have not been concentrating on marketing this business as I have been tied up working on the “stuff” that brings the steady pay – the guaranteed money that pays the bills (most of them, anyway), but even without much effort, the business has turned a profit (a small one, but the point is it’s operating in the green with little to no action on my part beyond the initial planning and set up). So- here is where I plan to focus my efforts initially – on the marketing of this already established business. This online business has the realistic potential of profiting (after expenses) over $38,000 a month ($456,000 annually).
It’s also entirely possible to duplicate the same business plan within a different niche market and duplicate those earnings…
So I may not have all the kinks worked out of this plan yet, and I can’t say I know much about real estate as investments or stocks, but I can say I’m ready, able and willing to get going. Only 10 years until my “date”, time to get serious!
Looks like you are getting all your gear together and on and are ready to start trudging your way up the mountain, Debbie!
