Working from home... Just read.
Wow this is just Awesome!! This is very possible.
I’m guessing if I told you the number of times I’m asked if affiliate marketing or even making money online is illegal it would really blow your mind.
It’s actually the #1 question most people have when they see what goes on in this industry. And with all the recent changes in Google I understand why…
Case in point: My own FAMILY used to ask on a near weekly basis if I was doing something “sneaky”.
Why? Because they didn’t understand what all this was… In fact, 99% of the worlds population has no idea what people like us are doing. I say “people like us” because if you’re reading this right now then you’re like me…
You are probably looking for something better.
Perhaps you’re looking for a better way to make a living and you’re probably tired of
the mind numbing cycle of the rat race. And you’re here because you probably
have a faint twinge of hope in the pit of your stomach.
But maybe the ability to make that kind of money on the internet, working from
home in your pajamas just seems “odd”
After all, most people have been trained to believe in the old concept of “hard work”. Where the only way a person can get ahead is to work hard and live cheap…
When people do not understand something the natural, human response is fear.
Fear of the unknown and fear of being made to look like an idiot…
But despite those fears I have yet to meet a person, online or off, who was not 100%
interested in living the life of total freedom that comes with this sort of success.
Nobody with any shred of intelligence would reject that.
But because most don’t understand what we do… they reject the vehicle that will literally drive them to their freedom.
Just a few weeks ago I had the privilege of having lunch with Mike Koenigs(founder of the uber-famous Traffic Geyser program) and he summed it up very cleanly:
“What we practice is THE most efficient business model in human history…If the mainstream would simply try it then EVERYTHING could change.”
He’s 100% right.
That is why we are shopping for castles and hot-rods while the rest of the world is struggling to make ends meet. Right now every other industry on the planet is
gasping for breath and hoping they can just make it to the “light at the end of the tunnel”
But that light will never come. Why? Because EVERYTHING has changed.
We make money so perfectly we’re able to automate and run a multi-million dollar empires from cheap laptops almost anywhere in the world.
Making money like this has become so simple that we don’t even need to understand
computers and/or technology!
Hell, your don’t even need to have your own product or website and you can potentially make more a week than average people make in a month!
So is making money online illegal?
No. Not if you follow the rules, treat people fairly and be 100% open and honest about what you’re doing.
Obviously I’m not a lawyer and it’s always a good idea to talk to one before jumping into a new business…
But the way I look at things is this: Only a few years ago I was homeless and living out of an office.
Then had my Identity stolen and was destroyed financially.
At that moment I had a very serious decision to make. (Much like the one you need to make now.)
Do I “A” try to get back into the rat race, fight to get a job so I could then fight to keep it only to make somebody else rich…
Or do I “B”… chose to bring real success into my life? Do I chose to make the leap of Faith and apply the secrets so many desperately want but reject out of ignorance and blind fear…
Hey, I want you to see what I’m telling you here for what it is: This is a wake-up call. The world has changed. Job security no longer exists. Mega corporations have shut their doors, fired their employees and there is panic in the streets.
But how can I be certain you and I are on the same page?
Because I remember what it was like to to be where you probably are right now…
Hopeful for a better life.
In fact, deciding to embrace this life of total freedom is the best thing you’ve ever done… Living this life is allowing you to bring more joy into the lives of others…
And having more fun than ever before…
So what’ll it be?
Do you chose to “A” be like everybody else and struggle for the rest of your life only to have a 99% chance of dying in poverty and miserable… or…
I wonder how quickly you will discover life changing freedom choosing to live free
having fun and creating more joy than the rest of the stumbling, clueless world
will ever know.
Time to choose.

Winter Gas: What Is It and Why Is It So Much Cheaper?
Every year in late summer, you will start hearing references in the media about the conversion to winter gasoline, such as the following:
"Motorists can thank a mild hurricane season in the Atlantic for the lower gas prices, according to the American Automobile Association. Other factors include the end of the summer driving season and a cheaper winter fuel mix.Gas stations sell a special, more expensive fuel blend during the summer to cut down on smog during hot months. Stations nationwide will start selling a less-expensive winter fuel blend Friday, which could lead to even lower prices," analysts said.
So what does this mean, and why does it make winter gasoline less expensive?
A Primer on Gasoline Blending
Gasoline is composed of many different hydrocarbons. Crude oil enters a refinery, and is processed through various units before being blended into gasoline. A refinery may have a fluid catalytic cracker (FCC), an alkylate unit, and a reformer, each of which produces gasoline blending components. Alkylate gasoline, for example, is valuable because it has a very high octane, and can be used to produce high-octane (and higher value) blends. Light straight run gasoline is the least processed stream. It is cheap to produce, but it has a low octane. The person specifying the gasoline blends has to mix all of the components together to meet the product specifications.
There are two very important (although not the only) specifications that need to be met for each gasoline blend. The gasoline needs to have the proper octane, and it needs to have the proper Reid vapor pressure, or RVP. While the octane of a particular grade is constant throughout the year, the RVP spec changes as cooler weather sets in.
The RVP is the vapor pressure of the gasoline blend when the temperature is 100 degrees F. Normal atmospheric pressure varies, but is usually around 14.7 lbs per square inch (psi). Atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of the air over our heads. If a liquid has a vapor pressure of greater than local atmospheric pressure, that liquid boils. For example, when you heat a pot of water, the vapor pressure increases until it reaches atmospheric pressure. At that point, the water begins to boil.
In the summer, when temperatures can exceed 100 degrees F in many locations, it is important that the RVP of gasoline is well below 14.7. Otherwise, it can pressure up your gas tanks and gas cans, and it can boil in open containers. Gas that is boiled off ends up in the atmosphere, and contributes to air pollution. Therefore, the EPA has declared that summer gasoline blends may not exceed 7.8 psi in some locations, and 9.0 psi in others.
A typical summer gasoline blend might consist of 40% FCC gas, 25% straight run gas, 15% alkylate, 18% reformate, and 2% butane. The RVP of the gasoline blend depends on how much of each component is in the blend, and what the RVP is of each component. Butane is a relatively inexpensive ingredient in gasoline, but it has the highest vapor pressure at around 52 psi.
In a gasoline blend, each component contributes a fraction to the overall RVP. In the case of butane, if there is 10% butane in the blend, it will contribute around 5.2 psi (10% of 52 psi) to the overall blend. (In reality, it is slightly more complicated than this, because some components interact with each other which can affect the expected RVP). This means that in the summer, the butane fraction must be very low in the gasoline, or the overall RVP of the blend will be too high. That is the primary difference between winter and summer gasoline blends.
Why Prices Fall in the Fall
Winter gasoline blends are phased in as the weather gets cooler. September 15th is the date of the first increase in RVP, and in some areas the allowed RVP eventually increases to 15 psi. This has two implications for gasoline prices every fall. First, as noted, butane is a cheaper blending component than most of the other ingredients. That makes fall and winter gasoline cheaper to produce. But the increased ability to add butane also means that gasoline supplies effectively increase as the RVP requirement increases. Not only that, but this all takes place after summer driving season, when demand typically falls off. On the other hand, refiners usually draw down inventories of summer gasoline leading up to September 15th to make room for the changeover, and this can lead to vulnerabilities should hurricanes come into play (as they did this year).
These factors normally combine each year to reduce gasoline prices in the fall (even in non-election years). The RVP is stepped back down to summer levels starting in the spring, and this usually causes prices to increase. But lest you think of buying cheap winter gasoline and storing it until spring or summer, remember that it will pressure up as the weather heats up, and the contained butane will start to vaporize out of the mix.
And that's why gasoline prices generally fall back in the fall, and spring forward in the spring.
"Motorists can thank a mild hurricane season in the Atlantic for the lower gas prices, according to the American Automobile Association. Other factors include the end of the summer driving season and a cheaper winter fuel mix.Gas stations sell a special, more expensive fuel blend during the summer to cut down on smog during hot months.
