The Story Continues How Come So Many Sensible, Hard-Working People Join Network Marketing Companies? Here's A Clue
If you work for a boss, picture this:It’s 2 p.m. Your morning evaporated in a flurry of phone calls and interruptions. You worked through lunch on plastic coffee to get an urgent job finished.

A Real Life Story
As a child growing up in the 50’s and 60’s in the Midwest, my parents understood the difference between needs and wants or having and not having. We lived in a small, modest 3 bedroom house with only one television (black and white), one car, no air conditioning, no dishwasher and very few extras. Yes, my parents took an annual vacation to Florida with the neighbors. Our family was considered to be middle class just like our neighbors who also lived in modest homes with only one television, one car, no dishwasher and no air conditioning.
Recent statistics from the Bureau of Labor and the U.S. Census suggest that many who are considered to be poor live as well if not better than my parents and neighbors did in the 1950’s and 1960’s. For example:
- 46% of all poor households owned their own home which was classified as a 3 bedroom with 1.5 baths and a garage
- 73% own microwave ovens, more than 50% have a stereo and 33% have an automatic dishwasher
- 75% of the poor households own a car with 30% owning 2 more or more cars
- 76% of all poor households have air conditioning
- 78% have a VCR or DVD with 62% having cable or satellite TV
- 97% of poor households have a color TV with over 50% having 2 or more color televisions

The Story Continues
With billions of dollars of venture capital residing down the street on Sand Hill Road, two Stanford professors are attempting to answer a fundamental question “why does it always take longer and cost more to build a hi-tech company than anyone ever expects?” For all the intellect, experience and graduate degrees in the venture capital industry, the sad truth is that 80% of venture capital investments do not pan out. While the reasons for this high attrition rate are too

The Story Continues Disaster Recovery: Failure to Plan is a Plan to Fail
Today’s organisation is increasingly dependent on its IT infrastructure and communications network.

The Story Continues
My father’s family immigrated from Sweden in the 1920’s and homestead 40 acres in northern Wisconsin. During the depression, my grandparents and their children moved to Chicago to earn enough money to pay the taxes on the farm. Even when my grandmother died in the mid 1960’s, she only had cold running water. The bathroom was an outhouse and the bath tub was a metal tub filled with heated rain water. Did she consider herself poor, absolutely not. She understood the difference between needs and wants. Her life was filled with peace and abundance. You could come into her simple home and there was always cake, bread, cookies or some sort of pastry on the table. During summer, there was a fruit bowl filled with apples from the apples trees just outside. Her 2 room main house had a small black and white TV along with a radio. The wood burning stove served as the source of heat for 2 small rooms. The sleeping cabin about 30 feet away contained two bedrooms heated by an oil stove. In today’s world, my grandparents would be definitely considered poor.
