A Simple Get Rich Quick Idea

In the immortal words of Emmerson, "all I need is one idea"

Overnight wealth has a certain stigma that "sensible" people

seem to be resistant to. The idea of the get rich quick variety

is an object of ridicule and derision in alot of peoples eyes.

However, with a little focused action and the right knowledge,

rapid wealth is not only possible for you, but inevitable for

the determined.

The first thing I want to do is qualify the above by saying

"quick" means several years not overnight. Sure, you could

write a hit song or contemporary book but these have alot to do

with chance. People with determination generally don't like

chance because control is a solid aspect of wealth generation.

Anyone can have an idea. By that I mean virtually any idea can

become workable unless its just totally "out there" What

matters is that you act. But more then that, before you act,

you must know how to make it work. Thats really what most

people with a good idea lack.

So knowledge again is where the central workability comes from.

So let me give you some knowledge right now. The knowledge of

the wealthy. There are many ways to get rich very rapidly but I

offer you an example below and some insights about what the

wealthy know and have known for centuries.

Arbitrage is a concept that you should learn more about. Its a

word that circulates in financial circles and is therefore

obscured to the average person as just some odd french word

that the stock market people use.

The truth is that arbitrage is the single biggest idea about

wealth that you should understand. Doing an arbitrage deal is

literally this........If I offered you 70 cents for your crisp

clean dollar note would you take the deal? What if you had

$100,000 and I had $75,000 and I said look, let me deposit this

money into your account in exchange for your money? Straight

swap. How would you feel about that?

Well I imagine you'd say no. I wouldn't blame you, its hardly a

fair deal. Arbitraguers do this all day long. But this is the

difference.

We deal in value and perceptions not numerical currency like

cash. Or we deal wholesale and sell retail. There are hundreds

of ways that I can swap my 70 cents for somebody elses dollar.

The wealthy have practiced arbitrage for as long as currency

existed because arbitrage is the secret road to wealth. A

secret that will never be openly talked about because it is so

tightly held. My little contribution here will do nothing to

change that balance, but consider yourself fortunate to learn

about this and maybe it will spurr you on to a new life.

Here is a real world example of arbitrage that I practiced many

years ago, when I was starting out broke, dejected, but hopeful.

It wasnt long ago but seems like centuries ago. Its pre-history

now. One form of arbitrage is the concept of economies of scale.

This arbitrage strategy relies on a single fact. An irrefutable

reality about fiscal life on the planet earth. Here it is. When

you buy something (of anything) in bulk, you are entitled to and

more often then not get a very large discount on your purchase.

When this bulk amount is "split up" and re-sold in traditional

more popular chunks, your investment will return a decent

profit.

So here is a get rich quick idea. One you can use right now to

establish an income stream to replace your daily job. It can be

reproduced and systemized to manufacture a very healthy income

indeed.

When you look at newspaper and local journal price lists, you

will notice they are very yielding to this concept of economies

of scale. Simply a small ad may cost $140 for example. But buy a

full page and you only pay say $900. Why? because its less work

for the publication. Well my idea was to start a weekly page

called "Martins Market" I approached 200 business owners face

to face and told them they can get a small ad in my one page

spread "Martins Market" for just $90 a full $50 cheaper then if

they bought their ad from the paper directly. Do you think this

offer interested a good percentage of the business owners I

approached? You bet! Not only that, but they got a further

discount if they paid up 6 months in advance.

I could fit 40 ads of that size onto my page. Being filled up,

I made $3600 every week for an outlay of $900 for the page. I

added value with nice graphics and the page got quite well

recieved as my clients reported good returns from their ads.

This was reproduced 20 times around the country, with 2 sales

staff for every "Martins Market" I was netting close to $20,000

per week for a fairly lengthy period.

You will need a few dollars to try this, but its inevitable

that if you do your research properly you can make this work

and get exactly the same results.

My very best to you
