For the past 16 years I've worked in customer service in call centres and recently had enough of listening to bitching, moaning customers and being paid a pittance for it that I walked out and resigned! Luckily, I received a reasonable sized inheritance about a year ago that I've been sitting on while I try to figure out the best way to invest it. This is my problem. I don't know where to start but know that I want to build a portfolio of assets for my retirement as well as cash-flow now. I am debt free as a result of this inheritance. My major outgoings are rent and child support, as well as the usual bills for utilities, etc. I've read with interest your articles on cash-flow now from internet businesses but I'm also aware that there are a lot of flashy cons out there that over-promise and under-deliver on content as well as return on investment. What do you suggest? Hi Jon,

I started my own environmental restoration and specialist engineering business in 2008. The worst (and best time) to start a business. The business has grown to almost $1million turnover per annum. In reality the $ are secondary, but important to enable us to positively improve the natural environment through funding our initiatives. The next step, that I need to crack is the winning formula that enables me to hang on to the intellectual property in my ideas, whilst getting past the gate-keepers to the decision makers in business. I have a landscape wide revegetation project ready to go, with Govt and technical backing lined up, just needing support from large organisations looking to visibly offset their carbon emissions. It is a unique opportunity for very large organisations wanting to gain the marketting value from making such contributions. Most organisations however, are just sitting tight, until the ETS is settled. In reality I know I simply need to put more energy into the hard sell and I will nail this. I have two or three other ideas lining up behind this, which again just need my focus to succeed, but one thing at a time....Some also could make a significant return, which I can then put into the next project and so on. In the meantime any tips on getting past the gatekeepers (or getting the government to pass the ETS) will be gratefully received! Best of Luck in all your endeavours as well!

I had a business for 3 years that produced no income. I was only in the business a short time and my husband became ill and had to leave his job. I would like the government to know how hard it is when someone in the family falls ill before you are ready for retirement. We had to lose all of our assets before the government stepped in to assist with medical treatments. My husband needs so much medical help that losing all of our assets happened very quickly as I was trying to sell my ailing business. It would have been better for the taxpayer to pay for his medical treatment at the outset as we are now looking like we will lose our house and need housing commission. We are both living on my husbands disability pension as I have just set up another business to try and save our house. I am in massive debt. I will have my husbands medical bills to pay again when I earn an income. How do you overcome these hurdles and move on from such a loss, My goal for 2010 is to finally earn an income after 41/2 years of working hard and earning nothing.

Seems everyone has the latest and best method or product, but feel a lot of them are scams. Checked one out; over inflated price, 60% of sale price went in commissions.Just ripping the public off!!! Read a bit of Tom Hua's piece in Millionaire Phenomena; looks interesting, but where do we start without even a product to sell??? In meantime thanks for news letters and books etc already sent.
