Retiring Poor

Why should people be interested in network marketing?

There are many reasons - great products, tax benefits of a home-based business, personal development, meet new people, make more money, and many others. One of the main reasons should be so they don't have to retire poor.

In the past, a person could go to work for a company, work 40 years and retire with a comfortable pension. This is no longer the case. Corporate downsizing has basically eliminated the 40 year plan. You can no longer rely on a corporate pension for retirement.

What about Social Security? According to analysts, the movement of 76 million baby boomers into retirement age will bust the Social Security system early in this century. Plus, right now the highest monthly social security income is under $2,000 a month! Could you live comfortably on that? In fact historical data tells us that at age 65, 1% are wealthy, 2% are self-sustaining, and 97% are dependent on either the government or family. In the richest country in the world, only 3% retire with enough money to take care of themselves.

How about investments? The instability of the stock market and interest rates has made it difficult to build a good retirement portfolio. What it really comes down to, is that your financial security is in your own hands.

What is one of the best methods for securing your financial future? A residual income developed through network marketing. Instead of making that 40 year commitment to a job, make it to your business. Imagine what your residual income would be like if you did work your business for 40 years. There are people in Amway with residual incomes in excess of $1,000,000 a month after only 20 years!
In just 5 years I built a residual income that equates to interest income from a $1,000,000 investment portfolio. What else could you do that would enable you to do that?

Build your own retirement income and promote that as a feature of your network marketing opportunity. You'll be surprised at how that changes people's perspective on the network marketing industry and your business.
