Stay home, get rich!
We live in a world of advanced technology, we can flick a few switches and be transported into the many varied and fascinating corners of the world. We can send messages seemingly at the speed of light, we can communicate with our friends across the globe and we can join communities of people based on mutual interests and opinions rather than geographical location.
Online Transport
In the last few years, with the roll out of broadband technologies, with the Internet getting faster and faster,and now with the ability to view real-time video over the Internet we have surely reached a new era, where our travelling can be done via the World Wide Web instead guzzling gas in our eco-unfriendly cars, buses, planes and trains.
We're In a Jam
So why do you still have to get up every morning, grab a quick cup of coffee and a granola bar, make your bleary-eyed way to the car standing on your driveway, and then spent the next 40 minutes sitting in a traffic jam with all the other bleary-eyed barely-awake commuters pouring into the city to earn their daily bread?
All Change
We live in a time of change, and surely the biggest change that's coming is that more and more people will work at home. It makes sense doesn't it? Aren't there millions of people, perhaps billions of people, who having set up their online connection could do the same work at home that they used to do in an office? And by staying at home, they save their employer money, reduce their carbon footprint and benefit from lower stress levels by not having to fight their way to work and back.
Enterprise Begins At Home
But there is a group of people who are already doing this. They haven't waited for their employer to become enlightened and catch up with the possibilities of our technological advancement. These people are the Homebiz entrepreneurs who are making use of all the benefits of a fast Internet connection. They are starting their own online moneymaking businesses by setting up their laptops on their kitchen tables!
Carpe Diem
Depending on which newspaper you read or which television pundit you listen to, we are just about to enter, are in the middle of, or are just coming out of a global recession. There is an uncertainty in the business air. There can surely be no better time to take hold of your own destiny. There are many business gurus who would agree that nobody ever got rich working for somebody else. That may be twice as true in a slowing economy. So now may well be an ideal time to sit down at your kitchen table and fire up your laptop. There has never been a better time to stay home and get rich!
