After winning the highest award in his field, Vincent was offered a 3 percent raise. He knew at that moment he needed a monumental change. One month away from their baby being born, Vincent and Elizabeth started a side photography business out of desperation. In less than four years, they grew their business to pay off all of their debt, including their home, and left their jobs for a life of freedom.

Now mind you, some people do not view it as such. They simply get up every day, go to work, come home, have dinner, maybe read the paper, maybe watch some t.v., maybe work on a hobby, and eventually go to bed only to do it all over again the next day. Then one day, they wake up 40 years later and all of a sudden they realize that they are 65 years old and the best years of their life are now behind them. Well guess what....NO THANK YOU. As for me, and now you, I have found a better way. A way that will not make me as rich as Bill Gates or Donald Trump or Robert Kiyosaki or fill in the blank, but it certainly will allow me to quit the rat race and live life on my own terms. You also can get to a state of financial freedom that will allow you to live life on your own terms as opposed to the terms dictated to you by your J.O.B. Now maybe freedom for you is simply time freedom where you can spend more of your time doing the things you want to do with your family. Well if you follow my teachings, you can reach the level of time freedom that you seek. In this book, I will show you how you can start your very own home based business in your spare time. Remember from above where I said...maybe read the paper, maybe watch t.v., maybe work on a hobby...that's the spare time that I am referring to. Forget all that other stuff and pay attention here. Before you know it, you will have built a nice business for yourself that you can even sell for a tidy sum as you shall see. Eventually, what will happen is that you will start to see a small (maybe even minuscule) amount of money flow into your bank account from your online business. Once this happens, fireworks will start to go off in your head. You will start to say things like "wow, this really works" and "wow, that book I bought by John C. Borg was the real deal" and "wow, who would have thought that you could really make money by working at home part time with an online venture" and "wow, if I work hard enough at this, I really will be able to quit the rat race".
