Michael Jackson’s Death Has to do with YOUR Money?!?

Last week when I heard Michael Jackson died I was
surprised by my reaction. Were you?

At first I thought it was a joke or a prank…

Then I turned on cable news and watched in shock
for a few hours.

All that’s pretty normal but here’s the part I
didn’t expect: I actually felt guilty that I had
cracked a few jokes about him the last few years!
I also felt sad for the lost opportunity he had
to do his final comeback tour to recover from
some of his financial setbacks.

Have you ever felt guilty over a complete
stranger’s death? I sure hadn’t!

**Before you write me about MJ’s legal issues,
know I have a brother who was molested twice and
2 young sons of my own. No matter HOW you feel
about the allegations against him, there’s still
a BIG financial lesson to be learned from him.**

Here’s the other interesting thing- thinking back
I remembered the first thing I bought for myself
was a black velcro wallet with the Thriller album
cover on it. I was on welfare at the time, and I
had saved up $7 or so. I spent $5 of my money
(65% of my total wealth!!) to “be like Mike.”

So, what’s the lesson to take away from all this?

First, know that you don’t have to feel guilty
for missing opportunities in your past. You’re
still alive and can start making empowering
decisions today!

Second, be mindful that others are watching your
example and that your success can inspire others
to improve themselves. When I was a welfare kid,
Michael Jackson’s EXPRESSED creativity (he DID
something with it) inspired me to be better when
I was only 10 years old.

Seizing opportunity and improving yourself- both
will make a big difference for you. You’re alive
and you have the freedom to choose your life’s
path… choose wisely!

I just made a video and posted it online for you-

YOUR Stimulus Plan to Avoid Personal Recession- by David Newby

The U.S. government just approved a $797 BILLION stimulus plan Friday night. 25% of it is tax cuts and the rest is new spending. Very little of it is earmarked for housing and mortgage re-terming, which is the sector of the U.S. economy that started the recession in the first place. That plan is slated to come out this week.

BOTTOM LINE: no matter what your political views, how long do you think it will be before this spending helps you out financially? The government is likely going to have to raise taxes eventually to pay for all this new spending. When they do raise your taxes, how will that help you financially?

I strongly encourage you to put together your own PERSONAL stimulus plan to put more money in your pockets NOW and protect what you already have. It’s vital you take massive action to position yourself to not only survive… but to thrive through this recession.

Recessions are the best times to create wealth; protect what you have, seize opportunities, and focus on creating cash flow with your nest egg. That way no matter what the government does you’ll be reaping the rewards of your own stimulus plan. Get some tools for your personal stimulus plan here.

A Christmas Present from me to you… and a contest!

Ho ho ho! Ol’ Saint Dave here from snowy white Detroit with Christmas greetings for you this Christmas day.

It’s easy to get caught up in all the presents today; I made a short video of things I’m thankful for from the past year that weren’t necessarily gifts. It’s about 4 minutes, and during the video I ask you a question that could be worth over $3K to you if you know the right answer and you’re the first to post it as a Comment on this post. Without delay, here’s the video:

I wish you well winning the contest, and have a GREAT Christmas day with your friends and family! Merry Christmas! And Happy Hannakwanza to you too.

Whose Financial Advice Can You Trust NOW??

Do you feel like you’ve been sucker punched in the gut by Wall Street and Washington? If you do, then you’re not alone. The stock market roller coaster is lurching up and crashing down faster and steeper than it ever has before the past 4 months, and it’s enough to make you want to throw up.

Traditional advice is probably working for you less and less and less financially, and the people who were supposed to have your back financially have dropped the ball big-time. It’s enough to make you wonder who you can trust any more to give you sound advice that will work for you NOW.

With the market down 40% in 2008 and the global economy predicted to be in a growing depression throughout 2009, below are some ideas in my video of how to determine WHO you should be listening to and WHAT you can do to empower yourself in this time of economic uncertainty.

Watch the video now, and then take action to protect yourself. You don’t have to be a victim of the Wall Street fatcat bankers and the Washington robber barrons any longer when you give yourself the gift of a personal finance money makeover.

Know someone who is struggling financially now or who wants to cope with the economic uncertainty around them better? Give them and yourself the gift of financial education this year for Christmas and get yourselves copies of my book “Why Didn’t Anyone Teach Me This?” at www.FinancialPlanning202.com. Along with the toys and gifts that will be forgotten two weeks after the holidays are over, put some financial freedom under the tree this year that will be treasured for years to come!
