The Wealth Creator Financial Educational Forum for Women

Each month in 2009, on the 2nd Tuesday at 6 p.m., we have held and will continue to hold our Womens Forum. A speaker is specifically selected to educate our clients and guests about a variety of financially oriented subjects. Our Forums are currently free. Excellent!
This month I invited the five speakers from January through May to return so that attendees could discuss and ask questions specific to their specialization with the over all emphasis being about the current economic challenges and how our attendees are pushing through.
The feedback received was that the Forum was a huge success. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed airing their laundry, as it were, while being very optomistic about the opportunities that are currently available in the marketplace as a result of the economic challenges.
One of our attendees pulled in a six-figure income in 2008 selling green food and household products. Another, who was is the real estate business, put herself through culinary school, created a personal food-service company and is now about to launch her newly created vegan cookie (which she said is delicious). Yet another attendee is doing incredibly well selling foreclosed properties in high cash-flow regions mostly outside of California. An average house costs around $50,000. There were several others doing really well! In addition, there were some ideas that have not yet been implemented by anyone that could do very well. All of these folks had one thing in common. They were all willing to take a risk. Some small, some large but nevertheless not without risk. In the current environment, if you are willing to take a 'calculated' risk, you can come out on top. Then just imagine what you could be capable of once the economy improves. Remember, while the current economic challenges are world-wide and clearly you have no control over what happens from a macro stand-point, you do have control, or at least influence, on a micro level. As one of last night's attendees said, 'this type of economy makes you have to be creative'. I love it! It certainly does.
