Not long ago, I received a question from one of my newsletter subscribers that went something like this (I've edited out the personal details):
"1. What about the Swiss Cash scheme? Trust or don't trust? Any evidence of previous failure to this scheme?"
"2. I am in debt due to scams. Give me your brightest idea that won't fail. I need to recover $200,000.00 lost in transit... appreciate you sir."
Well...
I don't know the first thing about the "Swiss Cash scheme" nor, quite frankly, do I care to.
However...
I do have a "brightest idea that won't fail".
Are you ready?
Here it is...
Stop looking for something for nothing.
Just in case you missed it...
Here it is again...
Stop looking for something for nothing!
Now...
I fully realize this statement is rather blunt and some (especially the questioner) might find it downright harsh.
But...
You know what?
It *really* needs saying!
In a recent month, on the Yahoo! Search Network alone, 439,530 searches were conducted on the word "free".
In addition...
Millions upon millions of searches were conducted the same month for "free" practically anything you can think of including (my personal favorite :-)) the 41,817 searches that were conducted on the term "free money".
What do all these searches have in common?
Simple...
They were all conducted by people who are looking for something for nothing. Each and every one of those searches was conducted by someone who's looking to get something of value for themselves without giving anything of value in return.
And...
Because they're looking for something for nothing, they leave themselves wide open to every scam that comes down the pike!
Here's the deal...
I believe it was Earl Nightingale who once correctly said, "The only people who make money work in the mint. The rest of us must earn money".
In other words...
Money isn't "made"...
It's *earned*!
It's the misunderstanding of this very simple concept that causes those who are looking for something for nothing to fall prey to one scam after another.
There's one and only one way to earn money and that's by providing people with a product or service that's useful to them... that'll help them live a fuller and more complete life.
We exchange our product or service for the other person's money.
That's how we earn money...
It's that simple!
Now...
Here's the real secret to earning money...
In his classic masterpiece, "The Science of Getting Rich", Wallace D. Wattles wrote:
"Give every man more in use value than you take from him in cash value; then you are adding to the life of the world by every business transaction."
"Take an honest pride in doing this, and let everybody know it; and you will have no lack of customers. People will go where they are given increase; and the Supreme, which desires increase in all, and which knows all, will move toward you men and women who have never heard of you. Your business will increase rapidly, and you will be surprised at the unexpected benefits which will come to you. You will be able from day to day to make larger combinations, secure greater advantages, and to go on into a more congenial vocation if you desire to do so."
There you have it...
The *real* secret to earning money...
Lots of it...
Give every person with whom you deal more in use value than you take from them in cash value.
By giving every person with whom you deal *more* in use value than you take from them in cash value you're *adding* to the life of the world with every business transaction.
So...
Here's my advice to this questioner and anyone else who finds themselves involved in one scam after another...
Step #1 - Stop looking for something for nothing.
Step #2 - Provide people with a product or service that's useful to them... that'll help them live a fuller and more complete life.
Step #3 - Give every person with whom you deal more in use value than you take from them in cash value.
Well...
There you have them...
Three simple steps to completely eliminating scams from your life.
Follow these three simple steps and you'll not only completely eliminate scams from your life...
You'll open the floodgates for financial abundance to pour into your life!
