Multiple Streams of Income

Has your household income gone up since last year?  Do you feel like your current job is giving you the opportunity to increase your income over the next 3 months, 6 months, year or longer?


How many sources of income do you have coming in to your household?


If you are like most of us, we never really thought about having to find other sources of income because our income usually increased each year.  One or even two sources of income (one or both spouses working) was always enough to pay the bills and have a little left over to save and to even spend on computers, vacations or anything else.  Then things changed.


Today we have come to realize that there are events that we can't control that can and will control our lifestyles, whether we like it or not.  


After speaking with many people that are currently looking for work or concerned that they may lose their jobs, no one seems to have an idea of what to do next.  They have been in the same line of work for so long that they don't know anything else that can bring in an equivalent amount of income or in some cases, anything at all.  The word "scared" doesn't even describe how they feel.  


The question now is...what are you going to do about it?


The first thing we all have to do is start a Plan B.  What is Plan B?  Your current income stream is Plan A.  Plan B is your next income stream.  Do you have a Plan B?  The answer for most families is No.


So how do we start a Plan B?  My suggestion is to find something that you enjoy doing and find a way to turn that into an income stream.  For some of you, it's a pretty easy transition.  For others, you have no clue what to do but if the opportunity presented itself to you, you would just know it.  That's what happened to our family.


Our family is pretty active.  We all play tennis several times per week and our daughter plays competitive tennis, training 4 days per week, up to 4 hours per day, then she plays in high level tennis tournaments several weekends per month.  The tournaments are structured with each player playing at least 2 matches per day (matches can last anywhere from 45 minutes to 3 hours each) with sometimes only 1 to 2 hours of rest between matches.  If she is playing well and winning, she will play anywhere up to 6 matches over three days.  And depending on the tournament, there may be doubles matches that are in addition to the singles matches, so in some tournaments, she can play as many as four matches per day for two or three days straight.    


Regardless of how much you train and endurance you have, you still need help.  Your body burns a lot of energy and living in Florida, the matches are played in temperatures up to 95 degrees.  Cramping and fatigue are common problems that every player has to deal with.


We were introduced to a product called AdvoCare Spark by some friends that were involved in high level, competitive baseball.  


Our daughter started using the product and immediately felt a higher level of energy on the court.  So much now that she won't get on the court without drinking a bottle of Spark before playing or training.  Now in addition to using Spark, she is also drinking AdvoCare Rehydrate instead of Gatorade for her electrolyte replacement to help with fatigue and cramping.  What we really like about Spark is that it has 21 vitamins, minerals and nutrients with no sugars that keep her energy levels balanced.  Rehydrate has a balanced level of carbohydrates, amino acids and a 1:1 ratio of potassium and sodium, two of the most vital electrolytes lost through sweat.  The calcium, magnesium and L-glutamine helps with cramping.


So where am I going with this?  


We didn't realize it at the time but we now realize that we were given an opportunity to turn something that is part of our life into an opportunity for us to help others with their Plan B.
