Two years ago my mum had a little bickering with a neighbor. Apparently, my mum was trying to cajole this neighbor to quit his drinking and smoking habit since these two activities were very harmful to his health. This man went haywire! He thought my mum was trying to bring his name to disrepute by giving him such advice. "What do you take me for", he angrily voiced out. "Do you think you are better than me? After all, what do you use your money for? Don't you just waste your money buying lands and building houses?", he ignorantly teased my mum but at the same time very infuriated.
All the other neighbors who were watching on busted into laughter at such level of ignorance exhibited by this drunkard. You see, he did not know the value and real wealth in real estate. To him, spending money on liabilities was more valuable than buying real assets like real estate.
Real estate is the real wealth. Most rich people all over the world know that, no matter what they invest in, their primarily wealth determiner lies in the extent of their real estate wealth. For example, Ray Kroc, the founder of McDonald's, though known throughout the world to be in the most successful hamburger business, is actually in the real estate business. Today, McDonald's is the largest single owner of real estate in the world and even owns some of the most priceless intersections and street corners in America, as well as in other parts of the world. What a great wealth he possesses!
To the rich, land and property is the substantiation or the validation of their wealth. The wealth of a rich person's real estate defines his value. Real estate is very important because it is the only form of earthly wealth that never loses its value. Real wealth is in the land and properties. It is therefore not surprising that it is called "real" estate. Most other wealth are not "real" wealth because they are wiped out by economic depression or natural disaster. No matter what the economy does, land never loses its value. The longer you own it, the more it increases its value. It actually grows in price even during difficult times. Real estate is the actual asset that ensures opulence for yourself and your future generations. Everything else fades away too easily. It only takes one collision, and your expensive Mercedes Benz car loses its value.
Rich people know that when they own the land they really control great wealth. A rich person is as rich as his real estate. Land, since time in memorial has been used to measure real wealth and blessing. It is those who are smart that goes after land. Many people think that it is only extremely rich people who build houses. I advise people who want to prosper to build houses. If you want to be a millionaire, I will say to you, "build a house and never stop having building projects for the rest of your life." If you already have a personal home, I will advice you to build another home.
There are two groups of people in this world. The first group accumulates this wealth wisely by building houses and investing in real estate. This group is often not outwardly remarkable. The other group squanders the wealth, basically having a good time. These people impress everyone by driving expensive cars, flying all over the world, and wearing designer clothing. With time, it is the home builders who often end up truly wealthy and capable of giving effortlessly to any worthy project.
However, the "the squanders of wealth" who were not prepared to sacrifice to build often end up broke and devastated in life. Real estate or property is a type of investment. It appreciates in value everyday. It represents the accumulation of all your wealth.Money is not the essential element to building a house. The key to building a house is wisdom - practical wisdom.
Are you a builder or a user? Builders put up and construct things in their lifetime. Users simply enjoy the facilities that have been created by others. The users pay the builders to enjoy their works. Thus, the users make the builders rich, very rich. Do not build apartments in your stomach! There is more to life than eating, drinking and making merry, for you may not die tomorrow! Do you know that you may live for many years and need the accumulated wealth of your better years? A wise person sacrifices to build something!
When you look around, you will notice that those who are wealthy and established later in life have all built houses. Being a builder makes you a more substantial person. Go for real wealth!

Affiliate Marketing Strategies: Why You Don't Have To Be An Expert To Make Big Money In Your Niche By Duy N. Khanh
To begin with the definition what is an "expert"? An expert is someone who has extensive knowledge or abilities in a particular subject, and s/he can help others by telling them what to do, and how to do things in their particular fields effectively.
However, I think it's just a comparative definition...
Firstly, even if you devote your entire life to research in a particular thing, chances are you still don't know everything, there are people who know more than you. Is it true? Secondly, there are so many people out there who are interested in your subject matter but know less than you. And that number is huge! You just have to read a book in your subject entirely, and you'll have more things to share with people than you can imagine. And thirdly, are we in business? If you wait to become a "real expert" with your niche, you'll have to wait forever!
So, how can we solve this problem?
You know the news reporters? The people who ought to talk about a wide range of topics everyday, the topics that they have zero knowledge about, are facing the exact problem you're in. How can they overcome it? The answer is they are reporters not experts!
Do you see the difference? No?
You can succeed with your chosen niche, even if you know nothing about it, if you position yourself as a niche reporter to people! You do exactly the same thing as news reporters do. You collect useful data from various sources, package them in digestible forms such as short reports, e-books, recorded mp3, videos, etc, and present it to your niche.
Just make sure that the information you're collecting is from trusted sources because you'll lose your credibility with people if you tell lies to them.
Want to know another strategy?
This one works very well if you're targeting a niche in the health market that you know nothing about.
Just imagine that one of your family members has that problem. And your mission, as a son/daughter/spouse/etc, is to find out solutions to help your loved one get rid of it, or at least relieve the pain. And if you can think that way, you'll have more motivation to continue with your niche. And it's even better if helping people is your second nature!
You see, you don't have to be a "real expert" to make big money with you chosen niche. Fact is, only a small number of successful affiliate marketers are expert in their niches, the rest approach their niche by becoming either reporters or solution seekers for their "imagined" loved ones. And if you can apply these affiliate marketing strategies, nothing can hold you back
