I was talking to a friend last night who told me about one of those excruciatingly embarrassing incidents that all parents have to endure at some point. I think it’s the law.
He was at the supermarket check-out, and his 5-year-old daughter was watching carefully as the woman on the till scanned through their shopping.
Something was clearly puzzling his daughter as she watched the woman repeating the same task over and over as they chatted. Eventually, she could hold her curiosity no longer:
“Do you like your job?” she asked.
“No…not really,” said the woman, “…it’s a bit boring.”
There was a pause as the father became increasingly uneasy as he watched the cogs whirring in his daughters brain. The pause was short-lived…
“Does it pay a lot of money?” said the girl.
The woman on the checkout conceded that it did not.
By now, the father was all set to leave the store without his shopping rather than find out what was about to come next. But he didn’t get the chance. The daughter’s next question came all too quickly for that…
“Didn’t you try very hard at school?” she asked.
That story made me both wince at the embarrassment and laugh out loud, but there’s something else there as well. You see, here was a five-year-old who was desperately trying to understand why anyone would do a job that didn’t provide either satisfaction, or a lot of money.
And yet, there are vast swathes of the adult population who not only don’t question the logic of doing that, but also make it their life for year after year after year.
This is a short chapter, but it’s probably one of the most important. In all likelihood, nobody reading this book will still be alive and kicking 60 years from now. Many of us have a lot less time than that.
Why would any of us spend even one of those years doing a job which gave us neither satisfaction, nor the money to pursue a fulfilling life away from work? And isn’t it logical to strive for both?
You may not have ‘tried very hard at school’. A five-year-old wouldn’t know it ~ and you wouldn’t want to tell them ~ but it doesn’t matter. It’s no excuse. What matters is what you do from here on in – how you make the most of the hand you’ve been dealt, and played thus far.
If you find yourself working for poor wages in a job that gives you no satisfaction, surely you owe it to yourself to put at least one of those things right, and preferably both. At the risk of offending those with deep convictions, I believe the only second chances are in the here and now. And that means you need to do something positive now ~ today.
You can do it. Anyone can. But nothing can change until you take action.
Kind Regards

Dear Streetwise Customer
I hope that you and your family are well.
I don’t have to tell you that the Coronavirus outbreak has changed everything, and nowhere more so than in the world of sports betting. With almost all our regular ‘go to’ profit makers like European football, horse racing and golf on hold, you might be excused for thinking that the opportunity to make a lucrative extra income from sports betting was gone – at least for now.
That’s what we thought until we heard from a guy called Craig Russell and how he was…
Making an extra £150-£250 a week exploiting the ‘invisible’ betting opportunities exposed by the Coronavirus mayhem.
You see Craig isn’t your typical sports bettor. Long before anyone had heard of coronavirus, he was shunning the sort of events most of us bet on in favour of little-known sports, events and fixtures taking place in obscure locations.
Why did he concentrate on those?
Because he figured that the less ‘pro’s’ there were looking at these obscure markets, and the more time he spent studying them, the greater edge he’d have over the competition.
Obvious when you think about it.
So why this message?
Because it seems like now is the perfect time to bring this to a wider audience…but not much wider!
You see, in conjunction with Craig we’ve put together a totally unique service which is tailor-made for the times we find ourselves in. But there will only be 100 places available. Ever.
For full details on what’s involved and why the limit, take a LOOK NOW.
If an extra couple of hundred pounds tax-free income would be worthwhile to you right now, I’d urge you to get in touch without delay. These places are really going to go fast.
