Here’s a particularly deep secret few Internet pros are willing to share or actually point out without a fee. Part of the rationalizations to their success is they were among the first to start it all. If you’ll remember hearing,’first come, first serve’ it is the same way on the web.

Folks usually remember who was first, not 2nd. For instance, who was the first to sell books online? Amazon ; who was second? Who was the first to start mass production cars? Ford ; who was second? Which company was the first to start the fast-food chain restaurant? McDonalds ; who was second? Who was the first to build an airplane? The Wright siblings ; who was second?

Did you at any time spot the crickets when I asked for the second provider?

We all have a tendency to remember who was first but barely do we remember too much further than that. Whomever enters the market first generally makes the most important impression. The majority of our web pros are extremely wealthy because they were first to present their products. Is that fair? Well, from their standpoint, of course it is. But from ours, it is not very fascinating.

Now you are thinking that you have to be first at something to become rich but you don’t know what to be first at ; so, you suspect it’s impossible. Take it straightforward, my friend. There are ways around it. Let me ask you a question. Who owns money?

Did you try pronouncing Bill Gates? Did you try saying Donald Trump? Did you even try asserting George Bush? It doesn’t matter WHO you claim to own money, you are wrong. No one owns money. Bill Gates has money, Donald Trump has cash, George Bush has money and YOU have cash but nobody will ever own it.

Though money is man-made it is very similar to nature. Nobody owns it. Nobody owns the weather we feel, nobody owns the water we drink, nobody owns the air we breathe and so on .

‘Oh, but folks own land!’

Do we really?

My point is this, money belongs to no one so do not think you can’t become as wealthy as any other guru you know of. And notice that I never once related being first mechanically makes you rich. That is not always the case and that’s why I say the 1st will make the biggest impression.

If wealth was made for only people who were first in line, then there would be no such thing as a line. They’d benefit before us but it doesn’t mean we won’t benefit anything.
