My latest....Bud

Tell Col Mattson, USMC-Ret that Bud Lichtenstern sends you.

One alternative to a job is to own your own business. Several options are available to you with varying amounts of
up-front capital investment ranging from several thousands to several hundred thousands of dollars. Another option to
consider is Network Marketing where there is very little start-up cost, minimal expenses and huge tax advantages.
If you are open to investigating how you can become an independent business owner in an industry that has been in
business for over 37 years and listed on the NYSE for 30 years, call Jack Mattson at 619-733-2142 for a free DVD
showing you the services provided and the business model and compensation plan. In their book, "Why We Want You To
Be Rich", Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki state that, "Network Marketing is a brilliant way to get in for a low
cost... and keep your day time job and build an asset that can set you free financially". Network Marketing is not
for everyone, you have to be self disciplined enough to run your own home based business, which is not easy. However,
whether you want to make a few hundred dollars a month or several thousand dollars a month, direct marketing is the
least expensive and most efficient way to generate income without interfering with what you are doing now.
