MONEY MAKING- THEN MONEY SAVING

Posts: 0 Newbie
Big Money making is a combination of things.
Firstly- Money Saving- I believe, should come 2nd in peoples priorites.. not 1st.
I believe People tend to fall into 2 categories:
1) The Careful- (eg- the coupon saver) - are often the least wealthy of us
(unless theyr'e rich- but 'mean' with their money)
2) the 'Risk taker' (the borrower) - this person will invest large amounts of money- regardless of its 'source'- with the wisdom of knowing that it will be returned to them. Such people who will go against the collective grain- the "so called" 'better judgement' evertime. They do no 'fear' loss- or failure- because they have a state of mind- an intelligence- to see the obvious gain in their investment. This where intelligence becomes high on the list.
Banks work on this principle- they offer you a loan using their billions, whch makes them financially stronger following your returned interest. The trick is to become your own bank. A moneymaking machine.
1st category of people focus on the incorrect 'useage' of money- instead of using it as an INVESTMENT, they spend it on consuming things- and BUYING the 'cheapest' of everything- with little or no financial return.
often, items, like bits of things- the 'comfort' shopping, makes people Pennywise, but pound foolish. It should in fact be re-named 'uncomfortable' shopping.
To moneymake- True 'Comfort' shopping- Should ideally only be considered when you are truly 'comfortable'- that is if you want to get rich first.
Thats not to say we shouldn't have what we want in life, but the catch 22 is that our gouverment endorses 'Celebrity'- so Often people fake belonging to the second category by following only the first category principles .
Example- A man might purchase the 'cheapest' Armarni watch available- say for 200 pounds- althogh they earn less than 150 pounds per week. It fulfils the illusion, but the man does not MEET the criteria for earnig lots of money)
Its only when you SELL that you EARN
Massive organisations (banks etc) work with success by keeping one step ahead of the game- and tempting the consumer, rather than the investor.
NOW LOOK AT THE INVESTOR:
Michael Jackson bought the entire beatles catalouge for under 10 million dollars in the 80's. Although a pittance of money to him, the principles are the same. His purchase was not so he could merely claim fame to his ownership
(like the man wearing the cheap Armarni watch)
but that so he could sell it some 10 years later- once now belonging to him, along with all merchandising. . (He later re-sold the catalouge which earnt him 85 million dollars! )
Investment makes money, regardless of source!
WHERE DO I GET MY MONEY I HEAR YOU CRY....
Why not use this site truly to your advantage...
I can happily pass onto people information on how to
'consume' the cheapest of everything, However true success and material wealth- is not really shareable, because everyone is not allowed to access it. It is also a mindset of the people - as i have described above.
Guarding your secrets - not making them widespread knowledge, is the most intelligent way to MAKING money.
I am now a 'comfort'- shopper, whch is why i love this site.
OVERALL YOU CAN EARN MONEY WITH THIS SITE- IF YOU kNOW WHERE TO LOOk WITHIN IT. ...
leave you to it,
Hope ive heled someone somewhere with this.
All the best.

ps- ive even placed you ;)in the right section!

At 3.15 am, I can excuse the poor spelling, but where did you find a soap box at that time?
Investment makes money, try telling that to the investors in the dot com boom.
Where did you get your money? or is that not shareable!
Are you a comfort shopper? or a TRUE comfort shopper?
How have you EARNED money from this sight or should it be SAVED money.
Over to you.

As you have cleary not offered me any similar inspiration that i have tried to offer you
(yes, it sometimes does came at 3:15am in the morning Mr sarcastic, i take it your a 9-5 :Pman then, unfortunately i neednt worry in this particular area)
As a result I cannot offer you any help you with your enquiry.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
NO offence intended.
I did at least take time to read the subject carefully.
It wasn't an enquiry just a request for clarification!0 -
In that case I apologize to you.
Im suggesting you use this site to your advantage, there are lots of 'unrealised' areas you can invest in, not only featured on the site, but in life, that see a return, or growth in your money. Intelligent people make often make their money through 'good ' investment is what im saying.
If i told you where all these areas exist, theres a good chance they wouldnt exist much longer as a result. Instead, copanies game-plans change. You haveto be one-step-ahead all the time. So its pointless to share this knowlege.
Once again, making money is about unsharing your plans, and staying ahead.
You need the capital in the first place, and you have to think negative now= positive later with your money.
Thats enough from me.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
To summarise:
- Use your money for investing to earn more money;
- Once you have made lots of money, then you can spend it (and worry about moneysaving while you are spending it).
All very logical, but you haven't really said anything.
Danny - I would be interested to see a couple of examples of what you have done.
Cheers

Hang on... now it Wouldnt be logical for you to explicitly tell ME how you make YOUR money WOULD it...?
Then ID know, along with every other reader ON here. Low and behold, buisness would be one step ahead
( of us all). Id rather not loose my money this way, thank you all the same.
Its simply all a game. Using your loaf. You say
"but thats just common sense".... so USE IT.
Ill tell you 1 way how to save money, no problem:
If you plan to borrow more money on your existing home, Remortgage every time to a new lender. Most existing lenders appeal to the new customer, but not their existing ones. ('HALIFAX' BEING ONE EXAMPLE)
Try ringing as you, then as a new customer. They'll give you 2 quotes. On the 2nd You'll save a fortune.
(which is also why you should also never tie in, with redemption penalties)
There you go.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
