That’s just what it says. If you say you don’t have money, perhaps it’s time to prioritize your priorities and start making arrangements to start your business.

I’ve not exactly been in the scenario of being hundreds of thousands in debt, living in a van on the river. But if it did get to that point I’d be sure to make better decisions and start learning how to generate financial freedom using the leverage of other resources.

Most people these days that have a job are able to contribute to a 401k. That said, you can also take a loan out of it and pay it back without having to pay huge penalties on it.

I did this a few years ago before I started in business and it does make it a bit easier to purchase some larger ticket items. Just be cautious as to?how much you take and know that you can only have 1 or 2 loans out at a time. It all depends on the company that is handling your 401k.

Borrowing from your life insurance is an option that most do not know they have. It’s just like making yourself a loan to your retirement account. This is because it’s an asset that continues to grow throughout time as you invest your money in it.

Although there will be penalties for taking out your IRA, you definitely have the option of taking your funds out of your IRA (Individual Retirement Account).

I would encourage you to talk to your tax consultant and see exactly how much you will be penalized and then make a decision as to how much you take out or if you take the whole thing.

Getting yourself setup financially is the whole goal of starting a home-based business. Just like any other business, it’s not a fly by night sort of thing that you invest and then expect a check to come flying in. Hard work is necessary – but we teach you the shortcuts to getting there faster.

That said, if you’re coachable, teachable, and passionate then you will be far better off taking out your IRA and investing in yourself and family.

For some, this option is not an option because you have to own a home that has equity.

The other issue is that the pure volume of banks that used to offer this sort of service is just not there anymore but the banks still do use them.

If you believe this is an option you should look into, you’ll want to get started as soon as possible. These types of loans can be fast but if you have credit issues, you’ll need to start cleaning things up.

I’ve seen it done many times over but it’s one thing that seems to be removed from the equation when people go looking for money.

It’s crazy how much money is locked up in items that are just sitting around the house. Turn this into start-up capital to get you on track to set your home business up on the right track.

This one is a bit more involved than Craigslist but if you are looking for a steady stream of income on the side, you may consider selling your items on eBay.

I’ve personally been able to sell on eBay and make that extra $500/month that everyone refers to. You know how the statement goes..”if I only had another $500/month, I’d be able to (insert desire here)”

I’m not one that loves to do e-commerce which can be very profitable if you know the right way to do this sort of money-getting strategy.

This type of money-getting strategy can be very profitable in a very short period of time. Selling on Craigslist is a great way to go due to the nature of it. No fees.

eBay, on the other hand, has its upside of being world-wide and therefore a bigger audience – but you pay about 12-15% in final value fees.

Where I live it’s not too often that you can use a boat, jet skis, or a motorcycle. So it makes perfect sense to sell one of these items and start a business using the funds from one of these items.

The mindset that you would have to have is that you will be able to buy something newer or better after the business is thriving. Typically the amount of cash you can gain from one of these items is well over the range it takes to get all the tools you’ll need for an online business.
