The Health Ranger's Mindful Wealth Email List

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Mindful Wealth readers,

 

It's been nearly two weeks since our previous Mindful Wealth update. A lot has happened since then, both in terms of the global financial markets and some of the business opportunities we brought to those of you on this list.

 

In this email, I'll update you on what's happening in both areas. First, let's cover the business ideas mentioned in previous emails.

 

 

Business ideas are already working!

 

We've already received outstanding proposals from members of this list who are ready to take over SteviaNews.com and WaterHealthNews.com, turning those domains into strong content sites that we will help promote on NaturalNews.com.

 

Both of these websites are primed to explode in popularity based on current events. Stevia, for example, looks positioned to actually be GRAS approved by the FDA in 2009. The SteviaNews.com website can do phenomenally well and attract a LOT of readers on the topic of stevia.

 

If you're looking to launch a content site on almost any health subject, and you'd like NaturalNews to help publicize and promote your site, send us your proposal! We own over 900 domain names on all sorts of health topics, including red wine, omega-3 oils, phytonutrients, nutrition and many more. We're willing to hand them over to members of this list and publicize them for you under a partnership arrangement.

 

Send your proposals or ideas to MindfulWealth

 

 

Breville juicers idea = online retailing success

 

Remember when I was asking for someone to offer Breville juicers for sale? Matt Monarch took me up on that offer, and we ran a story last week that resulted in the sale of many thousands of dollars worth of Breville juicers from his website. See that article here: http://www.naturalnews.com/024586.html

 

It's just another example of how we're working to help members of this list find innovative revenue streams aligned with the principles of mindful wealth. It's also a great example of how thousands of dollars in revenue can be generated in a short period of time if you're willing to take action on a good idea. :-)

 

 

Long-term storable superfoods idea still open

 

No one has yet pursued the long-term storable superfoods idea I mentioned in a previous email. This is a fantastic idea that could create quite a recurring revenue stream. To pursue this, simply offer nutritionally-potent superfoods (like chlorella, spirulina, goji berries, superfood powders, etc.) packed in sealed, #10 cans with oxygen absorbers and moisture absorbers.

 

I'll publicize it on NaturalNews and send people to your website to place orders. You'll need to fulfill orders, handle shipping, build a website (and e-commerce), provide customer support, etc. This is no small job, but with the right product selection, this could still be quite successful.

 

Key to success: Low-cost warehouse space and low-cost labor. If you're in a small town somewhere, this might be perfect for you. You'll need lots of warehouse space to pursue this idea successfully (to inventory the various stored superfoods before they're sold).

 

This is an idea whose time has come. Email us at MindfulWealth if you'd like to do this and you're serious about getting it done.

 

 

Available this week: Short-run publishing of your books!

 

It's official: This week we'll be announcing the ability to print your soft cover books on our new digital press (which prints and then BINDS the books using a high-end perfect bind). We can do print runs as small as 200 books at a time at a very reasonable cost to you. We're also more than happy to print "alternative" information that other publishing companies might not want to print, such as books that advise against vaccines or mammograms by recommending safer, more natural alternatives.

 

On Wednesday (but not sooner), you'll be able to email our print project coordinator at POD (that stands for Print On Demand, or POD for short). Give her the details on your book: How many pages and the finished size. And she can quote you the price for printing 200 or more. We support full color covers and black & white inside pages.

 

For SOME books that we really, really like, we may ask to add them to our TruthPublishing.com catalog or sell them on NaturalNews.com, but that's an option we can talk to you about later if we really like your book.

 

This book printing idea can help you make money in your own business. How? It's simple: Sign up to be a contributing writer to NaturalNews (http://www.naturalnews.com/021982.html). Submit 5 - 10 articles that are actually just informative excerpts from your book. In your author byline section, include a link about your book where people can purchase it from you.

 

Within a few weeks, NaturalNews publishes your articles, you get traffic and -- voila! -- you've got customers for your self-published book (and you didn't have to spend a fortune printing 5,000 books that are sitting in your garage).

 

 

Moxor idea is achieving HUGE success

 

Remember when I emailed you 3-4 weeks ago, telling you that we were about to launch our Moxor opportunity on NaturalNews? 200 or so readers on this list signed up, and I'm thrilled to tell you that right now, many of those people are already making $2,000 / month or more. It's astonishing how quickly this has multiplied.

 

This opportunity is still wide open, and now it's even easier to generate an income stream on the NaturalNews Moxor team because we've added a new online presentation and various audio tools that you can use to build your business.

 

You can view the presentation here: http://www.naturalnews.com/moxorDemoNN.asp

 

You can also see the huge directory of people who have already achieved notable success with Moxor in just the last 30 days. Check it out here: http://www.naturalnews.com/moxor-information.html

 

The stories are flooding in about how people are experiencing remarkable health benefits on this supplement while building healthy revenue streams. It's still a great time to join, as it's now apparent that this is going to multiply throughout 2009 and 2010. A large number of people who were with the Amazon Herb Company are joining the NaturalNews Moxor team right now, by the way, and they're bringing in a lot of experience, integrity and nutritional knowledge that's serving them well here. (Amazon Herb Co. folks are really great people, by the way. I still openly support that company in many ways.)

 

What I can tell you after 30 days is that I've never seen an easier, more affordable business idea anywhere. Watch the online presentation to see it for yourself: http://www.naturalnews.com/moxorDemoNN.asp

 

By the way, we're also using a significant portion of the funds we're earning to support our various health freedom campaigns. You'll see those announcements soon on NaturalNews.com

 

 

Analysis of current financial situation

 

It's no exaggeration to say that the world narrowly avoided a total financial collapse in late September and early October. At one point, I even predicted a 20% chance of outright bank failures and currency collapse happening within days.

 

We are very fortunate to have avoided that short-term collapse scenario, but the important warning now is that the long-term failures are still coming. By creating literally trillions of dollars to bail out financial institutions, the Federal Reserve has doomed the future of the U.S. dollar. It is now only a matter of time (years, perhaps) before the dollar becomes a fascinating footnote in world history.

 

Its downfall could be postponed for years, or even a decade, but there is no doubting its demise. The dollar is backed solely by the U.S. government -- a government that's bankrupt! Thus, the dollar has no value in the real world except for the fact that it's a recognized global currency. But guess what? That's about to change, too. China and various European nations (not to mention Middle Eastern nations) are already talking about marginalizing the dollar in the sphere of international finance.

 

Bank failures are still a very real possibility in the months ahead. Markets are still unwinding, and highly-leveraged debt is still vanishing at an astonishing rate. This is not the time to let your guard down on protecting your money. Read this latest warning from the economics professor who foretold the bank failures a year ago: http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/economics/article5014463.ece

 

And remember: I've predicted a poor Christmas shopping season followed by a wave of bankruptcies in the retail sector in early 2009. When you see this happening, you'll know the economic unwinding is continuing.

 

Do not be deceived by low oil prices

 

Right now, oil prices are down, gold is down and stocks are down. The dollar LOOKS like it's holding water, but that's only because other currencies are plummeting at about the same rate (even the Australian dollar!). Smart folks see the long-term picture here, and they're holding on to gold, gold mining stocks and the stocks of companies that are most likely to resist a prolonged global depression.

 

At the same time, lots of people are now seeking safer sources of personal income. Real estate professionals are already seeing what happens when the market turns against you. Their business is right now dead in the water, and they're scrambling to replace incomes with something else that gives them similar earnings without all the risk. That's why they're turning to direct sales companies like Moxor to replace that income as quickly as possible.

 

If you've bought gold, gold stocks or company stocks that help protect you against the fall of the dollar, my advice is that you strongly consider HOLDING those investments now as a form of financial security that protects you from the ongoing risks of systemic financial failures in the global economy.

 

In other words: We are not out of the woods, folks. Not even close! The Fed has created the illusion of solving the problem by throwing money at it. But that was perhaps the most foolish thing it could have done. The markets thumbed their noses at the Fed and kept plummeting anyway. Meanwhile, wealthy corporations like GE are now lining up to cash in on the $750 billion bailout offered by the Fed. Go figure: While Americans are out of work, a trillion-dollar corporation is collecting cash from the Fed? What kind of economic policy is that, anyway?

 

I can tell you what kind: The thieving kind. In the last six weeks, you've witnessed a massive swindle. The fact that so much money has been stolen from so many working-class people is not yet apparent, though, because money created out of nothing takes a while to infect the economic system and cause price inflation. But you'll see it over the next 12 months, for sure: Expect real inflation rates to hit 20% - 40% on the things you buy every day, like groceries, fuel, clothing, medicine and other products.

 

Right now, of course, prices on many items are falling due to a short-term plummeting of oil prices. Mark my words: That won't last long. OPEC is cutting production to keep prices higher. I say there's a very strong chance (75%) that oil will stay under $100 a barrel only for the next 3 - 9 months, after which time it will remain in the $100+ price range for a long, long time.

 

The only thing that can keep oil under $100 / barrel is a true global economic depression. That might happen, of course, and oil could stay cheap for a while, but that won't stop the inflationary effects of the Fed's money creation policy. Even if oil stays cheap, the things you buy are going to get a LOT more expensive in 2009.

 

In summary: How to protect yourself? Three main strategies:

 

1) CREATE new income streams for yourself.

2) CONVERT dollars into something real (gold, land, etc.).

3) DIVERSIFY your investments out of the U.S. dollar and into other currencies or companies that can survive a strong inflationary trend on the dollar currency.

 

And, of course, don't be fooled by announcements from the U.S. government, the media or Presidential election candidates. No election can save the dollar, and both candidates are determined to spend their way to even greater popularity at the expense of the financial solvency of the very country they're sworn to protect.
