Is it Possible to Work LESS and Make MORE Money?

My executive assistant, my housekeeper, and the concierge who works at the front desk of luxury apartment building I live in all work harder than I do.

Yet I make well over 10 times more than they do.

How is that possible?

How is it that successful entrepreneurs can make so much more than an employee that’s trading hours for dollars?

I answer that very question in my recent video below…

    AMit,

    That is the goal of a lot of people and mine too. This is the highest level of innovating and creating in being able to leverage and work less and gain more.

    It takes time for some people and it varies by each one’s pace. But I know that it is very possible and this is the perfect way to do a business.

    God Bless

    So many people work hard in their jobs and don’t know that they can live different lives. Doing not so much, but making hell lot more. It doesn’t fit in my head that that some people don’t know this is possible. DECISION is it only what it takes.

  3. Great post Amit. Sure was a perfect ten weather day in Boston when Nicole and I walked through that area of the Back Bay today. We would love to say hello someday and meet you.
    We are certainly trying to mirror your success by offering an information product/membership site comparable to the PPC Classroom business model. We haven’t jumped into the affiliate marketing yet as we really want to focus on getting one product off the ground successfully before we spread our wings. We have already met some invaluable contacts within PPC Classroom, who we will be outsourcing our SEO, copyrighting etc. to, and leveraging our business. thanks for the info. retweeted.

    The internet is the best source of leverage as now money can be made even while we are sleeping. Leveraging time and money are the important things that we need to master if we want to be successful in our business.

    Anyway Amit, your shoulder seems to be a bit broader? Is that the results of your workout at the gym..

  5. I agree with Tom. Everyday I see my colleagues working so hard where I work. I discovered the power of internet marketing 2 years ago and decided to create a 2nd stream of income. It was the best decision I made. Working hard paid off. Most of my co-workers don’t even know what I do on the side. I tried convincing one or two about internet/marketing marketing and told them how much some people are making online. The very first words they utter out of their mouth is “That’s not possible. Who is telling you this. Don’t believe everything on the internet”. They will start convincing me “it’s all scams. Don’t fall for it”. I just smile at them and shake my head in agreement.

    Nice video.

    Leverage in IM field= outsourcing and having efficient staff.

    Whoever is talking the video, should use Tripod as most of your videos including this one, involves only short distance walking etc, to takeaway too much shaking.

    Thanks.

    This is definitely one of the keys to wealth. If you know of anyone who has a business (not self-employed), they will understand this concept immediately.

    I used to be on the other side because I started as a self-employed person. It was a challenge giving up control because I was always the one who had to do it…and do it wel..

    Learn how to become a great leader by reading books by authors such as John C. Maxwell.

    Great video. Well apparently not a lot of people can really have that mindset and its always easier said than done…

  9. The concept of leveraging other people’s money sounds very interesting. How do you actually apply that in the internet marketing business, Amit? By using credit card to do your PPC (like when you use you AMEX Black Card)?

  10. Alex Yeo says:

    Although leverage is crucial to make bigger income and lesser hours, most people still stick to the traditional method of trading your money by the hours.

    And they go saying: “Life is like this. No choice.”
