Success For Life
 
 
Friday, February 13 2015
Yesterday I received what I perceived as being a death threat from a student whose property deal wasn't selected for the partnership opportunity.
 
[Sigh!]
 
First of all, I have no control over which properties my invest partner decides to select.  I did notice that he took a liking to properties strewn between Texas to Florida but he never -- at any given time -- told me in advance that he was selecting properties in those immediate areas.  I'm thinking that, after receiving the boatload of deals he received through me, he'd devise his own "real estate empire" strategy in which he would minimize how far-reaching these properties would be from where he's located.  I'm only guessing because I really don't know.
 
Sometimes I feel like I'm an American Idol judge.  You know...there are those contestants who can't sing worth a shit.  You know he can't sing.  I know he can't sing.  So when Randy says, "It just wasn't good, dog," the contestant storms off insisting that he'll "be big one day" and that they'll all "regret" not choosing him because nobody knows what they're talking about.
 
But...he sucked.  Everyone knows he sucked except, well...him.  He's the only one living in the fantasy that he doesn't suck.
 
Okay, so maybe that's a little far-fetched of an example.  Most of the properties that were submitted in were actually pretty good.  Some had some pretty kick-ass cash flows.  But, again, I'm not even a "judge" but rather just the "assistant" who passes on paperwork and takes orders from "the man," in this situation.  I had absolutely NO CONTROL over which properties were chosen.
 
Now, what happens to the "death threat" student?  A police report has to be filed since I do have his full name and his address.  (He did attend the seminar, after all.  What a freaking bonehead!)  And since my investor is actually considering a couple more deals, he's taken out of the program altogether, never to be considered for ANYTHING ever again.  Talk about burning bridges with millionaires...not a good plan!
 
Let me address something again that I talked about last month.  Doing partnerships isn't all what it's cracked up to be.  You essentially become a slave to a millionaire (or, in some cases, a billionaire) much like being a Pinocchio working in a salt mine, day in and day out for little payout.  In the case of my Texas investor partner, it was a 67/33 split.  He got the 67%.  You, the student, gets the 33% portion.
 
Okay, fine.  That worked out really well for my student with the $12.4 million property but that was the largest property that was done in this program.  Other properties ranged from $1.5 to $8 million.  The smallest cash flow was, I believe (if I recall correctly), about $8,000 (and change) per month (but it may actually have been less: I get my "8s" and "6s" confused sometimes).  On a 67/33 split, my student was only making a paltry $2,640 (or so) per month on the cash flow split.  The gained equity wouldn't come into play for years, if at all, depending on if the property could be sold for higher than what they paid for it after the contract period expires (in 2018).
 
So...here this student will be doing all this administrative work, generating umpteen reports for my investor partner, working like a dog to manage the property, and still having to hold down a full-time job because the $2,640 per month isn't enough for him to cut out on his current day job.
 
Yes, partnerships are awesome when the property is a MULTI-MILLION-DOLLAR BUY but...not so much when it's on the "lower" end of the financial spectrum.
 
So...what I tell my students who weren't able to get their partnership deal done is...it was ablessing in disguise but you just don't know it yet.
 
This is part of the reason why I personally no longer do partnership deals with these multi-millionaires and billionaires.  I got tired of being the "whipping girl" in the deal because I'm fairly convinced that we've abolished slavery, yet I felt like every bit of a slave in every single one of my partnership deals with these Big Boys.
 
So...
 
Back to you, my dear student.
 
I think many of my students feel intimidated in doing deals on their own and would prefer someone to take them "under their wing" to do their first deal or two.  However, if you truly knew what a partnership set-up looks like, you'd know that the person doing the partnership with you expects YOU to do everything and to KNOW everything already. There is no one-on-one training, no crash course, no "nurturing," and no education that they provide.  They throw you out of the nest the second you show up and you damn well better know how to fly instantly otherwise you're screwed.
 
Here's a better way...
 
Do your own deals.  Do smaller deals.  Stop trying to set up a $10,000,000 deal off the bat. Stop wanting that 300+ unit apartment building as your first deal.  Ain't gonna happen!
 
Furthermore, many of you don't know that doing smaller deals are:
 
1)  Easier for a newbie to do from a psychological standpoint; you can easily wrap your head about doing the deal so you don't get cold feet when you get into contracts (if you get that far).
 
2)  Better for negotiation because smaller deals are owned by mom-and-pop investors who will do partial owner financing, lower the price, do creative financing deals, etc.  Larger buildings...you just can't do any of those things.
 
3)  Better because of the lower operating cost.  You can get a smaller building down as far as a 30% expense ratio against the GOI (gross operating income).  The average for a smaller building is about 45%.  The average operating expense ratio on a larger building is well over half and, in many cases, up into the 70%+ threshold.  This means that 70%+ of your rental receipts is going back out in expenses to operate the property, and that's if you're lucky.  We had a 600+ unit building in the south that cost 85% of the GOI to run...and we had to cut it loose back in 2009 because we were at a 96% occupancy and could barely break even on the cash flow.  And that's freaking ridiculous.  Never again will I go after larger properties because of that reason.
 
4)  More profitable than you think; technically you need anywhere from 3 to 7 smaller buildings to gain enough monthly cash flow to meet (and exceed) your current monthly income requirements.  By "smaller" I mean buildings between 5 and 24 units each.  Many of my newbie students think that they need 100 buildings to make decent money and that simply isn't the case.  I don't know about you but I'd rather have under 10 buildings that are small and more manageable (and more profitable) than even a couple of over-sized properties that are nothing but a management nightmare.  (But that's just me.  What do I know, right?)
 
Need I say more?
 
Okay, so how does someone with no cash and no credit acquire real estate?
 
There are a few ways:
 
1)  Start off as a bird-dog where you get a cut out of the deal when you can "flip" it to another investor.  This will allow you to get your feet wet in the business while building up your "pot" to be able to invest in your own deals.  One of my students in one of my current mentorship groups just recently made $27,500 off a bird-dog deal just did.  That's a nice chunk of change, don't you think?
 
2)  Use your 100% LTV option.  The main one is the 100% LTV Bond Funding Program (144a).  When finding a kick-ass cash flowing property deal that can support a 100% LTV, this is definitely the route to take.
 
3)  Get bank-direct funding.  This is done by acquiring REO foreclosure properties (multifamily assets) that a small- to mid-sized bank still has in their inventory.  Yes, these are still very much available and now these banks are trying to flush them out of their system so that they can lend on new mortgages (which they cannot do as long as they have heavy loads of toxic debt on their books).  When a bank opens a new mortgage on what was otherwise considered a "toxic debt," it then reverts to being classified as something else on their books which is a high motivating factor for these banks to do this type of arrangement with any investor wanting to buy an under-performing property.
 
I have a little audio seminar on how all this works if you go to http://www.monicamain.com/special_blow_out_2015.
 
This is definitely something you need to listen to if you want to understand what's going on for this last-ditch multifamily trend that's going on for 2015, which should end by the end of this year!
 
See you at the top!

I finally have the tally for the investor partnership deals that we started in my November Detroit seminar.  We were supposed to do a total of 13 deals but 2 fell out of contract because of due diligence problems.  So, we ended up with a total of 11 deals as partnership deals with our students.
 
So...a huge congratulations to those students who ended up being "overnight" millionaires because of that extremely rare partnership opportunity!
 
Of course, as I already mentioned, since these deals were done directly with my investor partner and because I had no management or administrative part in these deals, I didn't take a piece of the action.  This was for my students and not for me.  And no, it's not because I'm being "nice" but rather I don't partake in deals where I get less than half of the gained equity and monthly cash flow.
 
One of the deals was a bank-owned property in Texas that appraised out at $3.2 million. My investor partner and student ended up negotiating that building down to $1.9 million because it had only a 62% occupancy level.  Pretty damn good, if I don't say so myself.
 
So, how does this all work with REO foreclosure properties, especially apartment building properties?  Are there still foreclosures available?
 
The answer is YES!  There absolutely are multifamily and commercial foreclosures still available.  And the banks are in a massive rush to push these final toxic debts off their books and onto an investors' shoulders.
 
You see, small- to medium-sized banks are pushing the last bit of their REO foreclosure inventory back into the market due to the U.S. Government regulations on lending.  Any bank with an excessive amount of toxic debt on their books cannot lend money.  And if they can't lend money by opening new mortgages, they don't make any money.
 
The economy has taken off in full force.  Investors are buying properties left and right, especially passive income properties.  They are especially interested in fully performing properties and not so much the "problem children" properties that have occupancy issues, as with many REO foreclosure properties.
 
This leaves the playing field wide open for you!
 
But...I'll be honest.  These banks are quickly flushing out these REOs as fast as they can. And they are doing what they can to get rid of them including sending them to auction (which isn't paying off as they had hoped).
 
Time for you to step in and claim some of these properties that you can still get below market value!  In fact, these are pretty much the ONLY types of properties you can still get below market these days: bank-owned REO foreclosure properties.
 
Now, there are some things you need to know that will work in your favor:
 
1)  Banks are still offering something called bank-direct funding.  Since many of these REOs are below the lending requirement of 85% in occupancy level and banks don't honestly expect most investors to shovel 100% cash into a deal anymore, they are willing to offer, on average, a 90% LTV plus rehab money (in some cases) if needed!
 
2)  Our 100% LTV source can get you the cash for these deals if the bank doesn't want to offer bank-direct funding for the acquisition.  They don't have an occupancy level requirement either provided that you are getting the deal at or below 80% of the appraised/market value.
 
3)  You cannot and should not purchase a 0% occupied board-up abandoned/vacant property.  Those days ended back in 2011/2012.  Don't make that mistake in today's 2015 economy!  Instead, find a property that is still "in service" with at least some tenants that are still occupying the building.  Properties that are anywhere from 10% to 80% occupied are REO deals you can get below market and can quickly "cure" occupancy problems within 3 to 6 months in most cases.
 
I initially started teaching my REO strategies back in 2010.  And I hadn't done a major upgrade to my course since then...until now.  I now have the 2015 version of my NEW Apartment Building Foreclosure Cash Flow System which I'm "re-coining" as The NEW REO System for 2015.
 
What's exciting about this course are all the elements that reflect in today's multifamily and commercial REO environment as well as all new resources to make your deals work.
 
Even more exciting, I have a video with the course that shows you HOW to find the REO deals, HOW to draft the offers AND a required proposal to the bank, and HOW to get your deal financed if you're not getting bank-direct funding.  I've never revealed these fine-tuned details in ANY presentation I've ever done on REO investing...until now!
 
For my amazing blow out deal for this weekend and through early next week, I'm offering this brand new course for a basement-bottom deal.  Even better, you can get in on the upcoming 8-week REO mentorship group (which is also brand new) so you can learn exactly how all the processes work.
 
For 2015, all of my mentorship groups are going to include live training webinars.  This is something I've never done before except for my Apprenticeship Group which I stopped doing 4 years ago!  These live training webinars are instrumental in you understanding how all this works!
 
Here's the link to check this out including an incredible audio seminar I put together:
 
Also, you're going to think I lost my mind with the different payment options I'm offering. Actually...maybe I really have lost my mind!
 
See you at the top!

Somehow I ended up getting a customer service email sent to my email inbox this past Friday.  This would be, of course, only hours after I had a lengthy conversation with my attorney about how people seem to only be getting dumber as time progresses and how he thought is was "sad."  He noticed this when he read blog comments on Yahoo! articles and he couldn't believe how stupid, uncompassionate, and just plain pathetic people have become.
 
My response:  "I think it's freaking fantastic that 90% (or more) of the population are dumber than a box of rocks.  It presents much less competition for me.  It means I can go out there and accomplish anything with much less vigor and 'work' than, perhaps, it would have taken me only a decade ago!"
 
So...back to the email that popped up in my email box by a seemingly "brilliant" customer of mine by the name of Richard B.
 
Here it is:
 
"hey, are you brain dead or just what?  I just got your course about to open it maybe in a few minutes, or do you have two disabled kids yourself that you are trying to make a difference in their lives?"
 
And that was it.  Nothing  before or after the statement above.
 
Hmmmmmm...I'm guessing the only one who is "brain dead" here would be Richard.  Not me, clearly, since I've actually never personally had any communication with this guy before this email came in.  Is it me or is he making absolutely NO SENSE in his completely grammatically incorrect sentence above?
 
Again...there is no competition, folks.  No competition at all here in America.  Because the likes of Richard B. is all you got to compete against and...well, we can obviously see that this guy probably barely rolls out of bed just to...who knows?  To fall face first onto the floor to then drool and piss on himself before heaving his heavy body off the floor several hours later?  I'm thinking Homer Simpson would be a bigger go-getter than this mentally challenged sloth.  And since Homer is a cartoon character, you don't have any real competition to speak of.
 
What concerns me about people like this: basic brain scruples are required to be successful in business and investing.  You have to have common sense, which I don't have the ability to "teach" people.  You have to communicate well, which I also cannot show people how to do.  So, if you're somebody like Richard B. above, I hate to be a Negative Nelly here but give up now while you're ahead.  Go back to your assembly line job gluing the arms on Punch and Judy puppets and forget about any venture into entrepreneurship because you simply won't make it in my world.
 
Am I being harsh?  No, not at all.  Those who are in the real business world will chew you up and spit you out without any warning or reason as to why they're doing it.  I always tell people who have "issues" with me being as direct, honest, and "real" as I am:  If you can't handle me, Bubba, then you won't be able to handle a commercial real estate agent or anyone else in business who will hurt your feeling much more than I could ever do.
 
And they do hurt your feelings.
 
This is why I have a "liaison" between myself and any commercial listing agent; typically a verbal "dog fight" ends up happening on the phone whenever I call on a prospective property that I want to invest in.  I simply won't tolerate stupidity anymore.  While I understand that you get more with honey instead of vinegar, my fuse has burned out years ago and along with that went my tolerance for manipulation, lying, cheating, and especially men who like to talk down to women...all because they have a 3-inch pecker and a sock stuffed in their underwear.  (Hey, but I have bigger balls.  That's all that matters in thisgame.)
 
So, how does this all fit into your world?
 
I have thousands of students and they fall into different categories.  I want you to see which category you fall into:
 
The Smarties:  These are my doctors, dentists, lawyers, engineers and other professionals (or just people who are smart) who want to get involved in a home-based business or real estate investing.  The problem with this very small segregated portion of my student database is that they talk themselves out of doing most everything due to "informational paralysis."  They read and watch and study...yet find that maybe some of this stuff is "too good to be true" or they lack the confidence in moving forward.  So...they do nothing. Thus, they fail.
 
The Busy Bees:  These are the students who are working more than 40 hours a week, usually hate their jobs to the core, and they find that at the end of the week they are too exhausted (mentally and/or physically) to commit to doing something else.  They rationalize with themselves with the end-of-the-week internal bargaining they do which is that they need a break to "recharge" and that they'll commit to working on their business or real estate deals in a few hours, tomorrow, or next week.  Or even this summer or next year or [fill in the blank].  Yet they never seem to get around to it.
 
The Fearless Puppies:  This is my group of students who jump the gun.  They get my course or come to a seminar event.  Without doing quite enough study -- even by a couple of days -- they're running out there to work whatever steps have stuck in their heads that they remember.  The problem is that they don't work out all the details, didn't spend enough time building their own step-by-step action plan, and then they wonder why they're never quite able to get their business or investing activities off the groups.  It's because they're missing some serious steps that they never took the extra time to absorb and understand.
 
The Excuse Makers:  This could be a "hybrid" of those who fall into the above Busy Bee category.  These people put off starting for one reason or another.  However, the key difference between Busy Bees and Excuse Makers is that time really isn't the biggest issue. Confidence is the issue.  They don't believe they have the ability to do this and they don't want to see themselves fail so they use excuses as a ruse to never begin.  Or they may begin on some minimal level but they never continue to any meaningful and required level to test whether they can be successful or not.
 
The Just Plain Dummies:  Now, I'd like to assume that this actually encompasses a smaller percentage of my student database than sometimes it seems.  These would be the people like Richard B. above.  They simply don't have the required amount of brain cells in their head to mentally navigate through the required steps to success (no matter how basic and "dumbed down" the instructions are).  They have no common sense.  Their IQ is much, much lower than the nationwide average or they suffered from some brain-eating amoeba. Any hope they would have to follow basic instructions or be able to make any type of business or investing strategy work simply isn't possible by genetic and DNA design.  (Hey, they can blame their parents for that one!)
 
Which category do you fit in?
 
With the exception of the very last category, you can do something about the other categories.  For example, my Smarties can just keep moving forward, gaining more education, until they feel comfortable enough to pull the trigger.  I had this issue with my engineer out of Vermont, Paul S., who is one of my smartest students yet would over-analyze everything to death.  Then do nothing for fear of making the wrong decision.  All of a sudden, he started investing in apartment buildings and he's pretty damn close to retirement at this point.
 
If you're a Busy Bee, make the time.  Even if it's 15 minutes a day or 3 hours on a Saturday.  MAKE THE TIME!  If you don't realize now that everything in your life you're experiencing right now will be exactly the same 5 years from now.  And if that's okay with you then...that's okay.  Right?  But if it's NOT okay then you need to start chiseling away at your new dream little by little till you get there.
 
My Fearless Puppies need to think more like my Smarties and put a little more time, effort, and energy into understanding what's required to start their business or to invest.  You can't leave steps out even if you're raring to go now.  You have to take the extra time to understand the entire process otherwise if you miss steps, you won't find the success you're looking for.
 
My Excuse Makers...easy.  Stop making freaking excuses.  Confidence will build as you successfully pass each of your action steps and especially after you make your first deal happen.  However, if you keep wanting to make the leap and you never do, unfortunately you'll never experience anything one way or the other (positive or negative).  You can't adjust your "flight pattern" if you don't take flight to begin with.  Just take flight and you'll figure the rest out in the sky.
 
So, that leaves a couple of things:
 
1)  Just understand one very simple concept: unless you find a way to get yourself some checks each month by winning a very large insurance settlement or winning the lottery, you're going to have to find a way to get a stream of monthly passive income in otherwise you're on the treadmill till you drop dead.  (What a depressing thought that is!)  So, you have to decide on a means of Passive Income that can not only sustain your current lifestyle requirements but that actually grows as the years roll on.  I recommend multifamily residential-commercial (apartment building) real estate investing.
 
2)  In order to gain access to these multifamily assets, I recommend that you find an Aggressive Income Strategy that can help you do 2 important life-changing things: (1) allow you to break free from that vampire-sucking job or business that you're in right now while, (2) allowing you to put some cash into these Passive Income property deals so you can line yourself up for a lifetime of financial freedom.
 
Right now I have something that can help you with #2.

Believe it or not, I got invited to be on Judge Judy with the P.O.S. bonehead student who filed the frivolous lawsuit against me.  So, today I contacted the CBS producer who invited me on the show and we're working out the details so that we can fully blow up this lawsuit into the 3-ring circus that it's truly become.  Actually I can't wait.  If this student actually thinks I "slandered" him via an email blast, I think he'll really look like the douche-bag that he really is (thanks to national television).
 
Then another property closed escrow yesterday afternoon.  So far we have 3 deals closed for the partnership opportunity that was presented in Detroit this past November.  We're under contract with 11 more deals that will close between next week and the early part of March depending on funding and due diligence.  So, I guess the opportunity was successful, to say the least.
 
My issue now is that I have another investor partner who wants to do the same type of investor-partnership deal with my students.  He's my east coast MHP guy.  Unfortunately, ever since I offered this kick-ass opportunity (that's already making a handful of my students "overnight millionaires") I'm still dealing with the wrath of offering such a powerful opportunity with the piece of crap who ended up suing me because of his blatant refusal to follow basic instructions (and ultimately potentially losing just under a million bucks because of how hard-headed he is).  So...now I'm "gun shy" about these partnership opportunities.  Oh well.  I'm sure I'll get over it.
 
But the reason I'm writing you right now is because of 2 things happening here:
 
1)  My BOGO Gold VIP deal for the March LA Internet Cash Flow Boot Camp Seminar is ending today at 5pm PST.  To check it out, go to http://www.monicamain.com/internet_cash_flow_event_in_la or call my office at (661) 295-5050 after 9am PST.  In the very least, put down a $100 "hold" deposit and make up your mind if you really want to go in a couple of weeks.  Worst case, you'll get your money back if you cancel on or before February 13th.
 
2)  I have a New Wealth Ninja Mentorship Group starting on February 11th.  I decided to offer a kick-ass 1/2 off deal for Groundhog Day PLUS I'm giving up a brand new video I just did on how my student (Gregg) started with my New Wealth Ninja training (including this VERY SAME mentorship group) back in 2012 and how he's now making $85,000 a month.  In this video set, you'll experience the exact 3-day training that showed this student the tools he needed to build his online business from scratch including what products he sells, where he sells his products, and how he was able to ramp up to making $85,000 a month.  This special exclusive video training set is only for those who register for this upcoming mentorship group and it's a $697 set that you'll get for F*R*E*E.  Click on this link for more details:  http://www.monicamain.com/groundhog_day_deal
 
Now, one thing I should mention about the New Wealth Ninja Mentorship Group that's a little confusing is that it's actually shows you how to do a 100% online home-based business.  I know, you'd think that the Internet Cash Flow Mentorship would be the one that's the 100% online mentorship but...well, that's just not the case.  The New Wealth Ninja Mentorship is an 8-week online group that shows you how to make a killing with 100% online marketing strategies.  My Internet Cash Flow Mentorship Group is about using myoffline-to-online marketing strategies alongside of a couple of exclusively online strategies that still marginally work.
 
The other thing I should mention is that there is a difference between what the "average" person can make in either type of marketing.  For the New Wealth Ninja Mentorship -- even though I have some students raking in a five-figure monthly profit fortune each month -- most of my students who do the New Wealth Ninja stuff make an extra $500 to $2,000 a week or $2,000 to $8,000 a month...on average.  Some make a lot more but the group is geared toward doing business 100% online (which requires much less work) but there is alower payout than with my offline-to-online Internet marketing model which can get you into the mid- to high-five figures per month in PROFITS.
 
I was thinking of blending the New Wealth Ninja and Internet Cash Flow Mentorships into one group but...I'm not sure if or when that will happen.
 
So, there you have it.  Two deals going on.  The Internet Cash Flow Boot Camp Seminar registration deal ends today at 5pm PST.  The Groundhog Day Deal (with the New Wealth Ninja Mentorship and $85,000-a-Month Secret 3-Day Training Video Set) ends next week.
 
If you have any questions, just call my office at (661) 295-5050.
 
See you at the top!

As part of The $9,000,000 Opportunity, we officially closed on a $3.73 Million building in Florida today.  And we are cleared to close on another on Thursday.  I'll let you know when that close happens since we had a couple of "hiccups" with that deal.  (It's overdue on closing by about 2 weeks now because of some due diligence "issues.")
 
So, congratulations to the students who have closed and to those who are currently under contract right now.
 
I was sending official acceptance emails yesterday to a couple more students to let them know that we were moving into the next phase and that we were moving forward with their deals in the partnership program.  What a rush!  Nothing feels more exhilarating than sending a life-changing email like that.
 
On the other hand, I also had to send out a slew of denial emails.  Talk about depressing. (That's the part I hate the most about the partnership program.)
 
What I do tell my students is that these deals that are "denied" by my investor partner aren't deals that you should let go.  Try to acquire the property via the 100% LTV Bond Funding Program where you don't have to share any of the gained equity or cash flow.  (I personally hate getting funding from investor partners because I like the deal to be 100% mine.  I'd rather have a much smaller property that's all mine than a 200+ unit apartment building that I have to share half of everything with an investor partner.  But that's just me.)
 
To me, a "denial" is just the beginning of thinking outside of the box and finding analternative way to make the deal work.
 
One of the strategies I use in getting new investor partners into my "pipeline" is by posting a loose description of my deal on the Loopnet.com Big Board.  This description includes the asset type (i.e. apartment building, MHP, etc.), the number of units and where it's located.  Then I include a very simple description of the amount of funding that's needed and what the investor prospectively stands to make in the deal for a 3-year period.  And that's it.  They can contact me if they want further details.
 
When they contact you, simply have them sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before you send them a mini-business plan.  Once they do that, send them the plan.
 
Of course, if you already have the deal under contract then you won't need them to return an NDA to you since they can't likely "steal" the deal from you.  You'd already have it locked up.
 
I typically get about 70 responses from a 30-day Loopnet.com Big Board ad.  Of the 70 responses, about 7 to 10 of them are legitimate investors who can help you finance your deal with the needed down payment money.
 
Right now the deal with my investor partner in Texas on The $9,000,000 Opportunityrequires him to take 67% of the deal while my student only gets 33%.  In most deals where you set up the investment opportunity, you can usually get 50/50, giving you more bottom-line profits in your pocket.
 
Now, why would other investors be okay with a 50/50 split?
 
Simple.  They want to get into real estate but don't have the time or experience (or both). They are what I call the "mass wealthy" where you have a ton of professionals out there who work 60 hours a week and have no time for anything else.  Many want to get involved in real estate investing but can't because they have no time.
 
I had a student of mine recently send a mailing to a local list of lawyers (since he's a former attorney) based on my recommendation that he target a specific profession.  He knows how attorney's think and he was able to write an honest letter to them about the amazing financial upside to owning multifamily assets yet clearly addressed their problem: lack of time and know-how.  The letter was 4 pages and the response was overwhelming.
 
Out of 2,500 mailers he sent, he had 33 attorney's call him and want to invest in multifamily property with him.  That's over 1% response which is typical in direct mail marketing but he didn't honestly expect to get that many that were ready and willing to write a check to him for a property deal.  To date, he's had a total of 4 of those lawyer investors successfully invest with him and he didn't start doing any of this till last summer. That's how fast you can change your own lives, folks.  (As quick as when you decide to, that's how fast!)
 
I have a surprise coming up for you guys and gals in May.  I won't be announcing it till March-ish but it'll blow your mind on what I'm going to do.  (I can't wait!!)
 
The other thing I teach my students is MY most preferred capital-raising strategy which is making my own money from scratch.
 
It's my Aggressive-to-Passive-Income Strategy.  This is when you create your own cash by setting up a very simple straightforward home-based business that can make at least $20,000 in profits a month.  This allows you to pay your bills and then funnel the rest of the cash into your Passive Income Assets (namely multifamily apartment building real estate).
 
This is my favorite methods because I don't like to share.  I'm like the kid in the sandbox who will deck the other kid who wants to "borrow" my Tonka truck for a "minute."  It's my sandbox.  My truck.  My stuff.  And I want 100% of it.
 
Hell, if I'm doing all the work, I want all the proceeds.  Right?
 
I have a way for you to accomplish this.  It's through my most Aggressive Income Strategy that I've presented so far.
 
Back in 2012 I started teaching my students what I call my New Wealth Ninja Strategies. This was a strategy to help my students create Aggressive-Income-Generating home-businesses from scratch and using very little money.
 
The trainings that I did were much more successful than I ever dreamed or anticipated including my "graduated" student "Alumni" who have built some impressive home businesses.  One student makes over $85,000 a month using the Internet.  He was part of both a training and a mentorship group back then.  Several other students from that same group are making between $35,000 and $65,000 a month.  All online.
 
But what disturbed me about the trainings I did back then were that there were too many "options" for my students to select from as far as different Aggressive Income Business models went.  This created confusion among the students who really need very focused-driven action plans in one main direction rather than being given a choice.
 
Fast forward to 2015...
 
This is when I decided to create my most narrowly focused Aggressive Income Business model of all:  The Internet Cash Flow System.  What I like about this training is that it leaves very little to the imagination because you are given a very specific set of instructions and almost no "options" to divert off the path.
 
I only WISH I had that type of training when I was starting to build my first home-based business.  (Of course, that was in a time way before the Internet but you know what I mean.)  Having this direct of a step-by-step path is actually BETTER than having a winning lottery ticket in your hands because...well, at least you know you'd win with this. The lottery is kind of up in the air.  Having a step-by-step treasure map to the gold is more of what you need and probably want because you can use this same map over and over again each time you want to make a small fortune in a short period of time.
 
I decided that it's best to "spell it all out" for a small group of students who want to make the commitment to themselves to do this.  Not many people actually think they're worth $20,000 to $50,000 or they don't think it's possible for themselves to rake in this kind of income.
 
But maybe you're tired of the way things are financially for yourself.  Maybe you're sick of your job or your business.  Maybe you want to get over that "struggling hump" and start living life.  And you realistically can't live life when 50 hours of each week is being drained on the freeway, clocking in, sitting in a cubicle taking other people's orders, and having the eyeball juice get sucked out by the florescent light bulbs in the ceiling.  That's no freedom.  That's jail.  That's worse than Pinocchio being in the salt mines (because at least he got out!)
 
I have a 4-page report that I think you should read.  It explains the major changes that have happened in Internet marketing and exactly what happened within my business.  These are things I never talked about before.  The report is under the Hollywood sign as a GREENlink on this web page:  http://www.monicamain.com/internet_cash_flow_event_in_la
 
The deal for the early-bird registration on this event ends on Friday at 5pm PST.
 
Don't you deserve to do this for yourself?
 
See you at the top!
 
Your mentor,

Friday, January 23 2015

All within the last 48 hours, I've had to deal with a variety of pissy, whiny, "pussy" boys who are starting to make me wonder where the real men have gone.  (I know you're out there, guys!  Raise your hands, okay?)

Now, this is going to be a "politically incorrect" discussion and probably not something for the "pussy" boys to be reading so, if you're one of "them," stop reading now and go back to complaining about how life is so unfair for you and how it's always somebody else's fault as to why both you and your life sucks so bad.
 
Here's what happened to me within the last 48 hours which has literally pushed me over the edge...and I get dangerous when I'm angry; I'm probably about to say some things Ishouldn't say too but, oh well.  I gotta get it out there to keep my insanity so here it is:
 
1)  The "stalker" from the Detroit event is continuing to call my office this week.  This time he's "whining" about how it's "unfair" because he can't get a listing agent or broker or somebody to call him back with numbers on a property so he can't turn in a deal for The $9,000,000 Opportunity before next Friday's deadline.  So...it's not "fair" that he can't participate and because of his personal inability to participate, I should do something.  He thinks I should give him a refund on the event he attended because he's an idiot.
 
By the way, the "stalker" is a white guy, presumably in his 30s, and he doesn't have asingle freaking excuse as to why he can't do anything except for what the demons in his mind are saying to him in the middle of the night.  After all, I've received about 300 deals from different Detroit seminar attendees of all ages, sexes, races, creeds, and backgrounds yet we have this young "white guy" with every advantage you can possibly freaking get in this business and he's going to COMPLAIN that he can't get a broker to call him back.  So, why doesn't everyone else have the same excuse, psychopath?  Oh wait, maybe people aren't calling you back because you...well, sound like a psycho on the phone perhaps?  Just a theory.  Try sounding normal and somebody will probably call you back!
 
Then...
 
2)  Rose clicked on something and ended up getting a virus in her computer.  So, I did what I absolutely hate doing which is calling this "computer guy" who is probably one of the worst people to deal with; it's like listening to nails on a chalkboard when he talks. (He's one of these people that make you want to throw up in your mouth.)  He's ridiculously condescending to women like you wouldn't believe and then he wonders why he's got a permanent account on Match.com because he can't get a date to save his life...for the past solid 5 years that I've known this fruitcake.  (But it's all the women's fault; it's certainly not his fault that every woman on the planet finds him utterly repulsive, right?)
 
Oh, by the way, the "computer guy" is also a white guy who, presumably has the "upper hand" in society as well yet he thinks that all women are stupid and that he's God.  He got very irritated about us having to call him back to actually do his job correctly since he screwed up some kind of configuration with our office Internet connection; he was actually offended that we turned the tables on him, making him feel like the inadequate piece of shit that he is. 
 
Needless to say, I'll be looking for a new computer guy -- even desperately flipping through the Yellow Pages if necessary -- the next time my computers break down because I'll be damned if I put up with one more second of his crappy attitude about life and how he's smarter than everyone else, all the while blaming everyone else (but himself) as to why he's a perpetually lonely and dateless loser.
 
Then...
 
3)  Yesterday morning I had a friend of mine text me really early in the morning to tell me that some loser posted a rather disrespectful comment on my Facebook page about myThe 18-Month Millionaire kindle book.  He basically said my 70+ reviews are "fake."  Hmmmm...70+ "fake reviews," two of which were ONE stars.  Like I have that kind of time or interest to post "fake reviews" over the course of a 2-month period, tardo.  So, he got blocked and his comments were deleted instantly thereafter.
 
What really bothered me wasn't the negative comment about my book (which he didn't even read) but that he made a comment on a picture about my daughter.  That's what sent me over the edge.
 
And I don't know the race of this guy nor do I care, but I do know it was a guy (unless people are naming girls "Duane" these days).  Anyone who makes comments from the anonymity of their computer with an Internet connection -- saying things that they probably wouldn't say to my face -- is a man who has no balls at all.  (Maybe grow a pairalready?!)
 
And finally, the best one yet...
 
4)  Most of you know about the frivolous lawsuit going on with one student who attended the Detroit event.  (I have NEVER had a student file a lawsuit against me for ANYTHING since I started teaching real estate in 2001.)  So, let me tell you what this ball-less piece of crap had the nerve to email me the other day:
 
He has a listing of "demands" that he wants including that I am to allow him to come to my next 3 seminars as a Platinum VIP without him paying for it.  And I guess I'm supposed to apologize for...well, telling everyone the truth about how he couldn't send me an Excel spreadsheet AS INSTRUCTED and how he thought he was exonerated from having to follow directions like everyone else who showed up to the event.  He had the audacity to demand that I send out an email blast, telling all of you what an awesome chum he really is.  (He's asking me to lie, basically.)
 
Yeah, okay!  Like that's going to happen!  I don't negotiate with "terrorists," bullies, or men who have no freaking balls because they want to be whiny pussies who refuse to takepersonal responsibility for why their life is so freaking pitiful.
 
By the way, in the state of California, there's a little felonious act called "blackmail" and "extortion."  Look it up:  California Codes 518-527.
 
So, I hope this ball-less frivolous-lawsuit-filing student of mine has bail money because he's going to need it when he comes back to California for the charges that are about to be filed against him.
 
Oh yeah, and this guy is an older white guy.
 
Am I pounding down the white men in this country?
 
Well, I do have an awesome solid base of students including some white men who have been incredibly amazing.  So, this isn't directed to everyone, obviously.  (Just the few "pains" in my side that have been mentioned above.)
 
What I find very sad is that the white male is supposed to be the "majority" in this country.  They're the ones that get all the opportunities over women and minorities.  Yet time and time again, these are the ONLY people in my groups and student base whocomplain about how direct and straightforward I am...and how I'm no nonsense and no bullshit.  Yes, they are the ones who actually complain about that.
 
Yet not one woman has ever complained about how straightforward and no nonsense I am.  Every race (other than white men...but NOT ALL white men, I'll remind you) seem to absolutely love who I am, what I stand for, and how I don't bullshit around.
 
What I love about women and minorities is that we have thicker skin than the "majority" because we've been knocked around a lot pretty much all of our lives.  We've been told we can't do things, we can't participate, we aren't any good, we're not smart enough, we've been called names...you name it.  We've all heard it and been through it.  That's made usall stronger for it.  It's something we should be proud of, something we should embraceand ultimately use to our advantage; we are A LOT tougher than the "majority" which makes us have a much easier ability (easier than you think) to be successful in business. Very successful, in fact, if that's what you want.
 
This is why a woman never sends me an email to tell me to "tone it down" or why an African-American never complains about how bold and straightforward I am.  (If anything, women and minorities tell me to "keep it up" and don't change.)
 
Because you guys and gals are tough!  Rock solid tough!!  You have thick skin.  You've been beaten up and knocked around by society.  And I love you for it because this "societal abuse" has given you something that you don't realize you have yet: power and strength!
 
So, why is it that I have the hardest time from some of these white guys?  What bothers me really isn't that they take offense to how straightforward and "rough around the edges" that I am but that they are lacking personal responsibility (i.e. "having balls") when they haveevery advantage that women and minorities have never had in this country!
 
Case in point:  A few years ago I had this seminar and this white guy there was complaining that (a) I didn't have a big enough t-shirt for his 600-lb. whale-like body because my XXL shirt wouldn't fit him, and (b) that somebody "took" the seat he was sitting in the day before...and he "thought" that everyone would naturally sit in the same seats as on Day One of the event.  Even worse, he came to me to cry about this bullshit.
 
My response:  "Suck it up and grow a pair."  And my censored private thoughts at that moment were, Maybe you need to give Jenny Craig a call.
 
I'm already on my daughter about taking personal responsibility for anything andeverything you can realistically control.  Personal responsibility is very important to me because it is, in effect, everything.  When you take personal responsibility for what you do, you also can direct your personal successes in life, too.
 
It's the difference between thinking that success is about "luck" vs. something you have the power to create.  Luck is bullshit.  And yes, you do have the power to create anything and everything you want in life!
 
So, let's talk about "balls" for a minute.
 
"Balls" doesn't mean hiding behind your keyboard while posting malicious comments about others online...comments you'd never say to someone's face.  It's not being a grown man to whine like a crybaby about how it's somebody else's fault because, in reality, youcouldn't do this or get that.  It's also not about trying to make someone else responsible foryour personal inadequacies.  All of this means having no "balls" but rather being "ball-less" for burdening such pittance on others.
 
Having "balls" means that you essentially "steamroll" through life, allowing the pesky mosquitoes (problems) that show up to not phase you one little bit.  You keep driving forward with ferocious warrior-like focus.  You take full responsibility for what you cancontrol and for what could be an "effect" of your "cause."  And you do what you have to do to get to where you want to be, whatever it takes and however long it takes.  That's having balls, folks.
 
So, the point in all this?
 
The first thing you have to do to become successful is stop blaming other people for why you are where you are in life.  You are the one who got you to this point.  So, take somepersonal responsibility and simply decide that you're ready for something else, somethingbetter now.
 
Deciding to be something else and to go into a different direction in your life is the first part, perhaps the hardest.  Once that happens, you build a plan and stick to the plan.
 
It's no more difficult than that.  Really, it's not!
 
In the meantime, I guess I'll either (a) ignore these "pussy" boys until their attention is diverted by a butterfly or some sporting event on TV and they leave me alone for good, or (b) make them the men that their mommies apparently failed to do.  It will start with telling them to shut the f*** up, stop crying and blaming everybody else, grow a pair of balls, and start doing things to follow their goals and dreams.
 
But somehow I just don't think they're ready for that.  Whining, complaining and blaming others is just too easy and comforting for them, like sucking on their pacifier and crying in their blankies all day long.
 
Forget about them.  All that matters is that YOU have a pair and that YOU go after your goals and dreams!  Who cares about everyone else at this phase in the game?
 
;-)
 
See you at the top!

This year has already shown signs that it's going to be a different "animal" than recent years past.
 
And that's a good thing, right?
 
My business has doubled in the past 6 months or so and I'm having problems keeping my sanity right now.
 
This year is going to be a kick ass year.  It's pretty clear that this is the beginning of our modern day "Roaring 20s" except that it's the "Roaring 2000s" that we had yet to experience for this millennium...until now!

I always say the same thing during these most exciting and quite profitable times: only those who are ultra lazy won't manage to collect the massive sky windfall of cash floating down everywhere.
 
The biggest problem during times like these is that it's easy to get wrapped up in the many financial possibilities to end up going after everything.  And when that happens, it's harder to cash in because you're not focused.
 
If you need focus, I'll give you focus.
 
First, think about my funnel.  Aggressive to Passive Income.  Simple.
 
Choose an Aggressive Income Business.  Take the cash you make from it.  Funnel it into Passive Income Assets, preferably multifamily residential-commercial (apartment building) properties.
 
Simple.  Very simple.  Ridiculously simple.
 
Then...keep your nose to the grind for 3 years.  Yep, 3 years...give or take.
 
You'll look up and realize that you can retire.  You'll have enough Passive Income coming in that you can walk away from everything for the rest of your life.
 
Am I over-simplifying this?  Nope.  Not at all.  I have hundreds of students that have followed this very simple plan and have done exactly what I've outlined above.
 
So, what do I recommend?
 
Well, I have a couple of kick ass things coming up.
 
1)  My Multifamily Apartment Building Cash Flow Mentorship Group.  This group is 8 weeks long and is 100% online.  It will show you the entire process of what to do to get started in Passive Income Assets, as this is my signature group and touts the highest rate of student success by percentage.
 
I have a deal on this mentorship group that ends today at 5pm PST.  Here's the link for it:
http://www.monicamain.com/mlk_blow_out.  You can get the mentorship for a fraction of the normal price plus your choice of one of my $397 bonuses for F*REE!
 
2)  My Internet Cash Flow System.  I have a killer 2-day seminar event coming up in LA on March 14th and 15th.  This will show you everything you need to know to get an Internet biz up and running in a matter of days and profiting in a matter of mere weeks.  I still have a kick-ass deal going on till the end of this month.  Here's the link:  http://www.monicamain.com/internet_cash_flow_event_in_la
 
And there you have it.  You're focused for the massive financial windfall of 2015.
 
Oh wait.  I forgot to mention.  You actually do have to apply yourself and implement a very simple step-by-step action plan to cash in.  And that's what I'm here to help you do.
 
See you at the top!

Your mentor,
 
Monica Main
 
P.S.  The winner is...YOU!  ;-)

Friday night I got roped into bringing my daughter to a 7-year-old birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's.  That is one place I adamantly try to avoid because it's a petri dish of every type of germ strand you can think of...and some not even discovered by science yet (until the next major disease outbreak anyway).
 
But I went because my daughter wanted to see her friends from school and she doesn't mind the germs or even licking the table if she wants to (usually to purposely upset me since she knows better).
 
I sat down and a woman who looked much older than I asked if she could sit at the table across from me.  "Sure," I exclaimed.  Better than sitting there by myself, I guess.
 
She told me that she was the mom of one of the little squirts at the party and she looked beyond tired.  She complained that she didn't even want to be there because it had been a long work week.  I asked her what she does.  She's a doctor.  Cardiology.
 
Not surprising.  I live in a neighborhood of a wide variety and array of highly paid professionals who are methodically working their way into an early grave with each passing week of 60 to 80 working hours to clock in.
 
You know, I honestly don't know who to feel bad for anymore.  The poor who really are in an "ignorance-is-bliss" state of mind and really don't know what to do to create a better lives for themselves or the highly-paid professionals who are literally "locked" into a dead-end lifestyle of working themselves to the bone until they are admitted into a rubber room...or they drop dead one day from being overworked and over-stressed.
 
She asked me if I volunteered at the school.  I said I did, twice a month to be exact (except for the "short" school months where it's only once a month).  She sighed, disappointed in herself, I think.  She expressed how she wished she could volunteer because her son kept bugging her about it but she couldn't even put in an hour in the morning to pull it off.
 
Pitiful, I thought.  Where is the freedom there?
 
And there I was thinking that life was so unfair because I could only buy one small cup of cheap blush wine from Chuck E. Cheese's per hour...and how their salad bar sucks ass because they wouldn't refill the croutons.
 
My new doctor friend explained to me that her dad wanted her to be a doctor and she then became a doctor.  I inadvertently asked her was she wanted to be in her life but she diverted her question into something else, clearly not wanting to talk about what she would have wanted to do if she had a choice because...
 
She really has no choice anymore.
 
She's 40-something, immersed in her career, probably barely just paid off her hundreds of thousands of dollars in student debt, and there simply is nothing else for her anymore.
 
At least that's how she sees it.
 
I saw how drained she looked.  She was pressing her son to leave early but he was having a good time.  I could see that she was on the verge of snapping on the poor child because he wanted to continue having fun with his classmates outside of regular school hours.  Yet she couldn't enjoy a single minute of the quickly-passing seconds of watching her son grow up because she just wanted to collapse into a drug-induced dreamland coma...probably till Monday morning.
 
And if I wasn't there, she probably would have went ballistic on the child, dragging him outside by his ear and forcefully jamming him against his will into the car.  I kept telling her, "Relax.  Give him a few more minutes.  He has more tokens.  They don't last long."  I could tell that he was grateful for the welcomed buffer in the situation and she caved because she didn't want to look like a jerk-off.
 
What's worse?  Starting from nothing (i.e. no career, no job, no "life") or being so deeply intertwined in an ass-busting soul-eating career that inhales 60 to 80 hours of your precious life a week...and it happens to be a career that you can never escape?
 
I'd opt for the former.
 
No matter which category you find yourself in (or maybe you're somewhere in an "undefined" middle category not mentioned above), as long as you have the appropriate knowledge and desire to change directions, you can change directions.  Period.
 
Of course, if you are working 60 to 80 hours a week, it makes it much more difficult unless you taper down that impossible work schedule to make room for your new life.
 
I was so tempted to start talking to the doctor about how she could see a light at the end of the tunnel -- in 3 years or less, in fact -- if she just started getting involved in Passive Income Strategies, like multifamily real estate.
 
But I knew she was in no mood to listen to such a sales pitch from me or anyone else.  So I kept quiet and silently felt a swell of gratitude that I wasn't a doctor or dentist or lawyer...or one of the many professionals I live near, talk to, and even counsel in my line of work because they are just stuck.  And they're tired.  And they want to realize freedom but they don't know how.
 
You're in a good position though, believe it or not.  If you've been a student of mine for a long time (as many of you have been) or even if you're a "newbie" student, you at least had some inkling of desire to find a "different way" (ideally that's easier) to acquire financial freedom, either through Aggressive Income or Passive Income Strategies (or both).
 
Many professionals, believe it or not, don't even know what to do or how to do it to ever gain that sense of "freedom" that they crave.  (And their local Certified Financial Planner or Investment Banker isn't going to help either.)
 
But you know.  And you're already going after it.
 
I have a 100% online 8-week mentorship group coming up.  It's my signature Apartment Building Mentorship Group that's been "amped up" with the most cutting-edge strategies. It's the Multifamily Apartment Building Mentorship Group and it's starting later this month (on January 28th).
 
I'm offering a kick-ass deal on it for the MLK Blow Out where I'm shaving 50% off plus I'm giving you my 100% LTV Secret Video Series.  Plus there's another bonus added in there too.
 
Click here to check it out:  http://www.monicamain.com/mlk_blow_out
 
I rarely offer a discount on my signature group but I need to set 2015 on the right track for everybody.  It truly is the year of multifamily investing and if you've been talking about apartment building investing (but you haven't done it yet), it's about time that you got off your ass and did it already.  Nothing happens when you keep taking about it.  But everything happens when you start doing it.  And this is why my mentorship groups are so powerful...because over 8 weeks we actually DO the business in the real commercial real estate world, step by step, so you get it.
 
If you have any questions, call my office after 9am PST tomorrow morning at (661) 295-5050.
 
By the way, Lea will be in tomorrow after her near-4 months of retirement.  Yep, that's right.  Retirement really isn't what it's cracked up to be.  So start thinking of something else you'll want to do with your time in a few years when you don't have to work anymore either because "retirement" in and of itself totally sucks.  (Think "old people" playing cards all day in a retirement home.)
 
See you at the top!

I'm in the process of creating my outline for the 2-day Internet Cash Flow Boot Camp Seminar in Los Angeles on March 14th and 15th and I realize that I have so much information that I'll have to limit our breaks in order to pack it all in.

A student of mine sent me an email yesterday and asked me if I thought he should come to the 2-day event.  In which I replied, "I don't know.  Do you need to come?"

I'm imagining that anyone who is already pulling in five figures or more a month in pure profits probably doesn't need to come.  Donald Trump probably wouldn't find any use in being at the event.  Or anyone who has no interest in having a home-based super-easy-to-start-and-operate business probably shouldn't come.

But if you don't fit into any of the above categories then you may want to consider coming.

A year ago I filled in my "New Life" paradigm where I wanted my end-all date to be 12/31/2013 with a "shut down period" to extend through my birthday (Flag Day...in June).  I took most of the summer off and realized that the idea of "retirement" sure does suck.  (Ask Lea.  She'll tell you.  She's been retired for 4 months and now she's coming back next week because she's bored at home.)

However, during this time, I continued on with my "little experiments" that I would do to use as case studies for my students.  One of these experiments was to start an Internet business from scratch using today's Internet marketing strategies instead of the Old School techniques that don't work anymore.

And here's what I did:

1)  Created a one-page "squeeze" sales page.

2)  Created a new Clickbank product.  It's a download product.

3)  Told myself that I couldn't use any of the "traditional" Internet marketing methods such as PPC (pay-per-click), banner ads, or anything online-based as a vehicle for driving traffic to my website.

So, what did I do?

I went back to my mailing list broker (who has been my brokerage firm since 1997/1998, somewhere in there) and asked him what the best pulling lists were for the type of download product I was selling (which I'll explain to you at the event).

I then rented 4 lists at 2,500 names each and rolled out a 10,000-piece small postcard mailing.  This cost me $3,650.  In 2 weeks after the mailing, I grossed $5,885.  My "net" was $2,235.  (Another $530 trickled in within another 2 weeks after that so we can "up" the net to $2,765.

Not any type of "mind blowing" cash flow or anything.  Remember, this is just an experiment.

But if you do the numbers, sending out 10,000 pieces a week works out to be $2,765 a week in profits or $11,060 a month.  Again, nothing mind-blowing but I'm almost certain that it's more than you're making at your job.

The awesome thing about this deal is that there really isn't any "work" involved.  Once you get your super simple 1-page squeeze page up and set up with Clickbank, they do all the work processing your orders and sending your customers to your download link.  You don't have to do anything else with product delivery. (Take that, health supplements!)

All you have to worry about is getting those 10,000 postcards out in the mail each week.  If you get the right equipment, it's no more difficult than printing each address on the postcards using a laser printer then taking them to the post office.

All and all, you're looking at about 15 hours worth of work per week to make $11,060 a month doing this.

By the way, some of you have been asking if I'm going to be covering health supplements in the seminar event or anything having to do with websites like eBay and Amazon.

Answer: NO!

When I did my presentation on my student doing $85,000 a month on eBay at my September event in LA, I actually had students contacting him based on my presentation.  And he wasn't a happy camper!

But, that's not why I won't be talking about eBay or Amazon or selling health supplements anymore.  I'm not covering all that at this upcoming event because, well...there's an easier way to make money online than that.  I've covered a small tiny fraction of what I'll be covering at the event but it'll be about the easiest possible way to make money online surrounding virtual download products which is 100% easier to work with and 100% more profitable.

I didn't even tell you the best part yet and how you can double that $11,060 a month without investing a single penny more in marketing while adding only about 2 extra hours to your time.

I'll be covering that at the event on March 14th and 15th.

If you can't make it, I have the Internet Cash Flow System (Complete Course) which you can still get a discount on until Wednesday.  Then the price goes way up.

If you want to enroll for the event, you'll get the Internet Cash Flow System for F*REE.  But that deal also ends on Wednesday at 5pm PST.

Some of you know how my "funnel" works.  Many of you have no clue.

It's this "funnel" realization that changed everything for me.  It actually changed my life!
 
I've always been good at making money but, after awhile, I felt like I was on this treadmill. (This would be around the time that I discovered the power of Passive Income Assets.)
 
How does this "funnel" work exactly?
 
It's pretty easy.
 
You find a cash flowing "Aggressive" business.  An "Aggressive" business can be any business where you can "write your own check," essentially.  This means that you create a small (preferably home-based) low/no-overhead business that creates such a massive cash flow income that it makes your neighbors sick with envy.
 
Then you take that extra cash flow and inject it into Passive Income Assets.
 
The Passive Income Business you create will be of small multifamily (apartment building) properties including "quads" (4-plexes).  Any type of real estate where you can draw a cash flow with tenant income qualifies, really.
 
Now, here's the strategy:
 
Any of you who have crappy personal credit, you'll be fixing it at the same time that you're building your Aggressive Income Cash Flow Business.  Ramp up time for your Aggressive Income Business is anywhere from an average of 30 to 90 days, depending on which type of business you're starting and how fast or slow you are in executing your plan.
 
Why fix and rebuild your personal credit during this time?
 
Because when you're finally ready to invest in your first piece of real estate (within 6 months to a year after you start your Aggressive Income Business), you'll be able to qualify for your mortgage at the best possible interest rates available at that time.
 
Okay, now that we worked out the idea of the "funnel" and what you're supposed to do with your new-found Aggressive Cash Flow, your next question in invariably..."How do you get this 'massive' cash flow from an Aggressive Income Business?"
 
Glad you asked.
 
I've had students ask me about my Internet Cash Flow System for about the past 8 months or so, as it's my very last installment of Aggressive Income Strategies before I go back to doing what I do best for the rest of 2015: multifamily real estate investing.
 
This complete course will show you everything you need to know to get started with the best, fastest-to-execute, and lowest cost Aggressive Income Business I've presented to this point: the Internet.
 
Now, we're not talking about your mama's Internet (from 5+ years ago).  We're talking about today's Internet Cash Flow Strategies because, as you probably know, all that past Internet money-making crap doesn't work anymore.
 
Yes, that's right.  Making money with affiliate marketing doesn't work.  Making money with blogging using Google AdSense doesn't work.  Making money with PPC campaigns, especially Google AdWords, doesn't work.  Making money with banner ads doesn't work.
 
In fact most of the stuff you probably knew about years ago to make money online simply doesn't work anymore and never will work ever again.
 
That's why I created the Internet Cash Flow System but...
 
Going a step further...
 
I'm also doing a one-time-only 2-day Internet Cash Flow Boot Camp Seminar in Los Angeles on March 14th and 15th.
 
I say "one time only" because, again, I plan on using the rest of this year for real estate investing, training, and partnerships.  So this will literally be your last shot at jumping on the Aggressive Income Bandwagon before I stop revealing my closest guarded Aggressive Income Secrets.
 
And in case any of you are wondering how and why I know anything about the Internet at all, I've been successfully making millions online since 2007 when I threw up my first sales squeeze page and I've been changing, molding, bending, and adapting to the ever-changing Internet marketing madness ever since.
 
I have to say, the past 3 years have change the most when it comes to Internet marketing just in the mere fact that the majority of worked before no longer works anymore.  It used to be a matter of whipping up a squeeze page, signing up for Google AdWords, and you'd see a rush of cash coming in through your website.
 
Now there's not a hope and a prayer that you can make money anywhere near like the "olden days" (which were about 5 years ago if we're talking about Google AdWords).
 
So, what do you do to rake in anywhere from $20,000 to $50,000 a month -- cash in your pocket -- by using the Internet in 2015?  Is it still possible?
 
Yes.  Not only is it possible but people (including myself) are doing it month in and month out.  It's just that it's a little trickier to do now.  Tricky but simple if -- and only if -- you know how to pull it off.
 
This is why I'm not only offering the Internet Cash Flow System (which is complete) but an in-depth "crash course" 2-day training in Los Angeles (March 14th & 15th) to show you exactly how to work this business.
 
Additionally, for those who show up to the 2-day seminar, you'll get a complete online marketing campaign that is tested, proven, and has already made me a ton of money that you can use without having to reinvent the wheel.  But that's only for those who show up to the event.
 
 
The deal ends soon where you can get the course and register for the event for one super (ridiculously low) cost.
 
See you at the top!
 
Your mentor,
 
Monica Main
 
P.S.  With so many things changing with the work force, if you don't start thinking about some type of business you can start part time from home, you may find it harder and harder to make the money you need to sustain your current lifestyle as the years roll on.  Even if you don't come to this event or get the Internet Cash Flow System, at least start considering home-based business options for yourself so that you don't end up like a "deer in the headlights" with your pants down in the event that you lose your present income due to downsizing, off-shoring, or other changes in the economy.
