While millions of world orphans and underprivileged children go through life every day without their basic needs being met like proper nutrition, love, shelter and education, we are blessed with abundance and take these things for granted. Although people are empathetic, they have the perception that little or nothing can be done about the number of orphans in the world but each one of us are in some humane way responsible. Let me share with you how these innocent world orphans and underprivileged children are suffering and how you can help save them… Continue reading
There is plenty of advice out there about planning for your retirement. There are books, rules and steps that offer tons of advice and strategies but there is one very crucial element missing in all of this. In all of the advice and strategies offered, there is no mention of the benefits that Asset Allocation has. This means that all of the advice out there is partially correct. There is no possible way that anyone could guarantee the amount of money you will need for your retirement, it is the same as stating that ‘every day is a sunny day’ and that ‘it will never change’! Everything is always in a state of flux, your finances, your health, the economy and even the climate. There is no crystal ball that can predict what the future will hold, more so in retirement. I’m certain that 10 years ago, you never dreamt that there would an economic meltdown in the US on the scale that it has occurred and that is just a small example of how things change.

Rising inflation is a common concern as it affects the cost of living but it also affects your money, whether it’s invested or in general as the purchasing power decreases. Money tied to conservative investments is affected as the return on the investment also decreases. The risk on long-term investment is a big concern because you may have planned to only spend that money later like during your retirement. With inflation causing everyday costs to rise, returns on long-term investments may not buy as much then as it does now. Continue reading
Ever wondered when it will strike, illness and disease, that is? As you grow older, it is an ever-present threat to your hard-earned savings and investments and the truth is when it does strike, most of us are caught with our pants down, so to speak. The impact this can have on your investments can be shattering if you have not prepared for it. That is a frightening thought when you consider that while we all prepare for retirement, we do not really prepare for the inevitable, old age with chronic conditions. The stats show that 120 million people in the US have to live with illness and disease, in other words chronic conditions that require expensive health care. Continue reading
This 4th of July brings special meaning to me and my family where in stark contrast to one year ago today we were facing dire straits and today we are living with financial independence!First, I would like to thank and give blessings with much gratitude to all the men and women in all services of the military for their past and continued sacrifice which helps keep our country safe and secure!
This message from me today is really about FREEDOM, beyond what the military provides us, I’m talking about personal freedom and financial independence. Let me explain. One year ago from today my wife and I were in the worst financial situation I’ve ever been in and we didn’t see a way out, scary! You see, for some twenty plus years I enjoyed a highly successful career in the footwear industry making well over six figures and living a very nice lifestyle. When the economic collapse hit I found myself out of a job for the first time in my 23 year career and we had just finished building a home based on the high level salary I was making at the time.

Mike Dillard has been at the head of many wildly successful internet businesses in the past, including Magnetic Sponsoring and Better Networker so we wanted to see if The Elevation Group was as good as the things we have previously seen from Mike.
There are a number of incredibly knowledgeable and successful people who are involved with this project and most have incomes in the top 10% in our country. The basic concept is that the only thing people are missing to become extremely wealthy is the information that the extremely wealthy have. The everyday secrets that people who understand how to capitalize on their money know and are using each day to create new wealth and continue to grow their existing wealth. Continue reading
I strongly urge you to do the same if you value creating financial security for you and your family. Mike Dillard in fact got me started on my journey to financial freedom and I’m very grateful that he has created The Elevation Group so he can share his knowledge and wisdom with all of us.
