Here are 5 options for you to consider - helping you out of the rat race and making money to be a catalyst to your freedom
PROPERTY - Yes, I can hear you say - property NOW? In this economy! To be honest, yes property is a great one. Do the research, look in the papers, talk to real estate agents, and your bank. There are many ways of making money in property - a fantastic book to read is "0 to 150 properties in 3.5 years" by Steve McKnight. It shows you many different ways in an easy to read format!

STOCKS - Now don't shake your head at me and think I am completely mad. Before you jump to any conclusions read the article "Buy American, I am" by Warren Buffet. Here is a man who has survived stock crashes previously, and is one of the wealthiest men in the world, from stocks. My suggestion is do the research, if you are passionate about stocks - you will find a way to make money, especially at this time! Speak to others who are making money in stocks at this time - and learn from them.
TURN YOUR IDEAS INTO A PROFITABLE BUSINESS - Can't find a business out there that suits you - why not start your own? Everything you can see around you, all started in someone's imagination first. Or maybe you see a business that could run ten times better, start that. Although it may be hard at first, if you truly are passionate about your business it won't seem like work. Another thing to consider is to actually make sure your business can run without you - therefore giving you the freedom you are striving for. The best book I know that can ensure you do this is called "The E-Myth" by Michael Gerber
FRANCHISES - If you feel that building your own business is too much of a risk, but still like the idea of having a business, Franchises are another great way to go! With proven systems that work and have proven profits, what more could you ask for. They often provide guidance and support through the whole way. One thing to keep in mind with franchises however is that you will need a substantial amount to invest with. Banks will probably lend you business loans for a franchise more so than an unproven business. Pick your franchise, check it aligns with your goals and also values & beliefs and you are on your way!
BUSINESS FROM HOME - With the internet so readily available anywhere, it is easy for certain business to run from home. If you want to be home for kids, want to be your own boss and earn what you put in, a home based business is one of the best options. There are thousands out there, so it is important to do your research, as the one that looks too good to be true may often be illegal. Find a home based business that interests you, check that it will give you the freedom you are looking for and also the income. A lot of home based businesses are quite cheap to start, so great if you don't have much to begin with.
What now? As you read the above options, one may have stood out more to you than the others. Begin your "escaping the rat race" journey with that one. If it doesn't work out, don't be discouraged move to the next. You will learn more about what you do and don't like as you go, enjoy the triumphs and learn from the mistakes. If you stay committed, it won't be long before you are living the lifestyle of your dreams. - 15224
