I’m delighted to bring you the edited version (view the out-takes here!) of my personal invitation to a Rent2Buy seminar in Worthing or Essex, with David Lee, The Cashflow Investor. If you are intrigued by the idea of making money from property without a deposit, or mortgage or about how to buy a house for £1, or turning your negative cashflow properties into positive cashflow ones, here’s the link: http://tinyurl.com/cashflow
My ex-business coach, Chris Barrow just posted a blog post entitled “How Can We Be Expected To Work In Such Conditions?” and really, I have to agree with him! http://tinyurl.com/5wvbbe
I woke up at 6.30 this morning to another day of glorious sunsine - and the beach just over the road.
I’m tempted to just get my swimsuit out and grab my iPod and catch some rays while listening to a bit of Rich Schefren and swotting up further on the Rent2Own concept - perfect for these market conditions and a great cashflow generator! But no, I have to go to London today.
After getting ready in a leisurely fashion, Steve will drop me off at our sleepy little station, and I’ll enjoy a largely empty train direct to Victoria.
I’m off to go to lunch at The Ivy, with Judith and Sue, Money Gym member and winner of our Women Talk 
Money Challenge, notably the person who increased her income by the most ££ in just three months. Sue managed £25,000 plus - marvellous!
We always like to make prizes for clients at the Money Gym things that Judith and I want to do!! Later this afternoon, we will be joined by Peter Stanley, of “Property Made Simple” fame, who is down from Manchester, and a member of my now defunct first mastermind team. Not seen Peter for ages.
Then it’s off to the Rex Cinema in Rupert St, Soho, to meet my sister and enjoy the book launch for Michelle Magorian’s new book.
My opera singing sister Heather shared a house in Walthamstow with Michelle back in th 80’s - they were so poor in those days they literally had to break the ice in the loo due to NO CENTRAL HEATING! Now Michelle is an acclaimed author with tomes including “Goodnight Mr Tom” starrring the late John Thaw in the film of, and she has a film deal sorted for the new book already.
Home again on the train, and as it will be a late night, I’ll have a lie in tomorrow, as I dont’ have to get up till the 11am Money Gym Wealth Surgery webinar for our Gold clients.
Why am I telling you all this?

I’m really really excited to bring you some very special news! If you want an example of “Attraction In Action” read on and be AMAZED!
You may not know it, but I’ve been wanting to get a holiday for ages, but what with having to move house a few times in the last couple of years, and Steve, Judith and me working our butts off (in a fun way!) on The Money Gym…..apart from a weekend in Pisa & Florence, Italy, it just hasn’t happened.
But that hasn’t stopped me thinking about it and dreaming about what kind of a holiday I would like….and with all the different ages and interests in this house, let me tell you it would be tricky to find anything that suited all. Our requirements for any dream holiday seemed impossible but include ….
1. Loads for the kids to do (suiting both a 10 year old and a 13 year old going on 16.)
2. Loads of stuff for me to do / learn - I get bored lying by a pool or on a beach all day
3. Space for us all to get away from each other
4. Lots of sun and fabulous places to visit
5. Easy to get to from Shoreham By Sea - plane ideally!
6. All inclusive - no cooking or cleaning
7. No driving
8. Great nightlifeWell, I had concluded that a cruise might be just the ticket and I had thought, well, if you are gonna cruise at all, the Caribbean is the place to go, eh? But it still seemed so far away…daunting stuff really…
| Attraction In Action!! |
Then, talk about the POWER OF ATTRACTION!! I had almost given up the whole idea when blow me down, if an email from Mike Filsaime, one of my very favourite internet marketers, didn’t arrive, solving ALL my holiday woes.

I’m planning a major new report thise week - the working title is “Back To Front Marketing (Killer Wealth Creation Strategies For The 21st Century Business)” but it’s only a working title. I have a better - shorter - one in mind.
As all good ideas do, it came to me in the shower, and luckily my memory cells are sufficient that it lasted past the hairdryer and breakfast and all the way into my new work space, the dining table, which is conveniently close to the sofa, my new convalescent day bed. Handy for naps.
The article grew out of my thinking about several events coming together, as is the way, synchronistically (is that a word? if not it should be!) First of all, a rather intriguing new magazine arrived yesterday from The Entrepreneur Channel and it caught my eye because it’s got an article by Duncan Ballentyne from Dragon’s Den (cor) although the man on the front cover is Andrew Reynolds, whom I have only met briefly but know to be a VERY SERIOUS business person.
I first came across Andrew when he pretty much singlehandedly put 1200 bums on seats for the World Internet Summit UK (the year after I spoke for them sadly!).
He’s a quiet man, but knows how to enjoy his wealth - he recently had a lot of fun at his 50th birthday party, including having Elton John playing for the guests live!
Then I met him briefly at the secret filming for Alan Forrest Smith’s product for Entrepreneur TV, and we discussed the possibility of my working with them, but nothing has come of it (yet).
His dad and grand-dad were aspiring business men, but as Andrew recounts in this magazine, they were always working to a flawed business model so never made any money. He talks very eloquently about the look of “despair and rage” that he regularly saw on his father’s face, and this still drives him today. Andrew grew up in very poor circumstances indeed - one pair of trousers and shoes at a time, always cold in winter- and so he worked very hard in corporate life, albeit miserably, until he came across an business opportunity that resonated with him, offered by someone who he already knew of, liked and trusted, so he jumped in with both feet.
Two interesting points there. No matter how entrepreneurial you are, and how hard you work, if you have a flawed business model, you are never going to make money, let alone become rich, via the business lane of the Wealth Highway. It’s one of the two main Lanes most multi-millionaires use to become seriously wealthy but it’s a minefield if you don’t know what you are doing.
How can you know if a business model is flawed? Well, you won’t unless you have learned by bitter experience or you have a mentor. Some business people discover a successful model by trial and error but many, many more give up before they find one.
This is my own experience. I must have started about 40 business since I was eight years old, but it was only after meeting my wealth mentors that I realised that there is a blueprint for business success, especially business success that leaves you free to enjoy your life, but that hardly anyone - unless they have been successful themselves - can tell you what that blueprint is.
The real hidden danger in business, the sargasso sea of this lane, is actually ….
