Secrets

posted by ryan

Secrets are confidential information which was not meant to be shared and be kept within the knowledge and circle among the parties involved only.

Everybody has secrets and it covers a lot of different areas be it health, business or relationship, depending on the impact in an event which should a secret leaks out, what impact of damage will it reflect on individuals, families and businesses thus in the higher middle income to rich and affluent families often have a price tag to every secrets.

How much secrets can a person keep, and how long did the secret last before leaking or is it always safe with the person? There are many factors which everybody can test and sound out on anybody to find a trustworthy person.

The ability to safeguard a secret is c direct and straightforward reflection of an individual on his or her integrity, honesty, creditability and reputation of himself/herself. The better you are at safeguard secrets, the more money and wealth you will receive at the end of the day.

Look at Tiger Woods, reports have mention that his inner circle of friends even help him cover out his scandal and offered to pay the ladies in some previous reports to keep it under the table and from the public media. On the other side, we have the ladies who cannot wait to spill the beans to a short term fame and money for their one-time income for selling their story to the media.

In business, especially secrets dealing with personal, business, the more you help them safeguard the secrets, the more you will benefit as well on a continuity basis which can be considered reciprocal and passive income source.

Before the fall of Tiger Woods scandal, the golf industry was seeing their business media attention and viewership increasing, shortly after the scandal broke free, golf related businesses and individual professional golfers experience a dip in their wallets and in the accounts for individuals and businesses.

The ladies on the other side could enjoy the benefits of being treated like a queen if they keep it under the tabs but they choose not to for unknown reasons which does not make logical sense to me, emotions got the better of them. Committing a suicidal step to their reputation and personal creditability, telling all others potential business partners and friends that “don’t ever let me know your secrets or you will see your reputation, effort and business go down the drain”, in short it is equivalent to telling them do not hire me if you identify me as a secret spiller.

By being a secret spiller, it has not long term benefits at all and it will follow that person till they rest in peace and in some instances, it brings and spills over to the next generation making live more difficult for their kids and family even after their dismissal. Refer to Adolf Hitler and Benard Madoff; read related articles and reports how they people do not want to be associated with such people. That is what I think and after reading lots of similar business related books which support certain parts of what I have written above.

Ladies always wanted to be treated equally, but do they really mean what they say? I’m not against women; in fact I’m supportive of ladies as a matter of fact, more towards women than to ladies for their supportive role and they mean what they say unlike ladies who are still not yet mentally mature and able to take up responsibilities for their own actions.

There are many ways to earn money and keeping secrets is definitely one of the best ways to increase your own network, by being able to keep our own mouth zipped up.

Woods

posted by ryan

Tiger Woods the first billionaire athletic who is now back to a multi millionaire thanks to his scandals.

The scandals and his wife have one thing in common, ladies. From the start of the scandal, his wife chasing after Woods with a golf club which caused Woods to crash a fire hydrant and sent to hospital which lead to a sex scandal which involves numerous number of women from different professions.

Woods can become a billionaire is due to his ability to market himself and his skill and not discounting the fact that he knows how to manage his wealth. To become a wealthy successful person, one must learn basic accounting knowledge which is essential and the fundamentals are same on money management.

Considering the zeros differences, there will be slight difference in how money is being managed to grow the money instead of losing money. Yesterday in Straits Time, Woods was labeled as a Cheapskate by one of the ladies associated in the Tiger Woods scandal for only buying her a sandwich and not to provide for her financially.

With regards to that, I am in full support of how Woods managed his financial statements and looking at the profit and loss statement on anything and he is a good accountant himself to manage it well as a matter of fact.

By not providing for the lady financially, it is simple investment knowledge not to invest in a losing property or entity which will only drain your money away like a leaking tap or a faulty water dam depending on the number of zeros investors are talking about.

Providing financially for that lady not only will incur losses in short, mid and even long term.

Short term, the lady’s appetite for financial support will burn a hole.

Mid term will be that the profit and loss statement is going from blue to red tabs and it gets only darker blood red.

Long term is due to the business implications on the brand of Tiger Woods picking up the bills for another lady who is not his wife which will lead to companies losing trust and withdrawing from Woods earlier than expected if he did the wrong choice of providing financially for that lady.

On the other hand, Woods have being paying millions to hope savage his relationship with his wife, Elin Nordegren is a smart choice which has short, mid and long term benefits.

Short term is that he increases his own relationship bonding and trust among his friends, relatives and business partners as a complete model family and as somebody to look up to. With a family as emotional support, he can easily discount the work stress and replace it with family love, support plus care and concern which has immediate benefits.

Mid term is that with a complete family image, businesses will want to associate themselves with people who are already successful themselves and are setting a good role model example for the majority. To top things up, he is a expert marketer himself in his golf skills on top of a blissful supportive family prior to the scandal broke out. Combining both role models and his marketing skills of himself, he opens up new invitations for appearance which is his residual income source.

Long term benefits are tied together with business endorsements, representing various brands for their prestige, creditability and association with somebody trustworthy which is long term passive income for doing absolutely nothing. All that Woods needs to do is to behave himself which he did until the scandal broke out.

Financial management requires a basic understanding of accounting and the ability to foresee short to long term benefits before venturing into any investments, which includes in providing financially for ladies in this case study.

If you want to get rich, start first by learning how to better manage your money without professional assistance.

Breakup

posted by ryan

Breakup is to put an end to unpleasant relationship. It is the discontinuance of a relationship, called separation or divorce and termination. It could be marriage, friendship, employment and business partnership. It is to dump the other party for numerous reasons.

The most talked about breakup is nonetheless, Tiger Woods scandal with multiple ladies from different professions ranging from models to porn stars and even getting ladies pregnant and subsequently going for abortion.

Tiger Woods scandal is an example which illustrates from multiple perspectives. First he is married, second his is a world known golfer who has made a brand out of themselves due to diligence, third, he has other golfers who supported him and fourth he has business relationship from reputable brands with Nike, Tag Heuer, Gillette and other brands.

In this example, the scandal first started by Tiger Woods escaping from his wife Elin chasing Tiger who than crashed his car and was sent to hospital. Back than it was only a simple family marriage issue.

Thanks to media exposure, it than evolved into business and employment issues, with brands and companies backing out from the endorsement deals, and his employment as a professional golfer comes to a temporary stop, his money keeps gushing out into the ladies he had affair with not forgetting Tiger using money to have Elin staying by his side. His billionaire status, I guess is back to multi-millionaire due to payments for keep the secrets to themselves, the day he comes back to golf will be the days he climb back up to be a billionaire.

Breakup can be a pleasant experience with the right respect during the relationship, care and concern for each other. In this case, we have one of the ladies Jamiee Grubbs apologizing to Elin on a website portal exclusive. Jamiee said she had no regrets, it is only when respect is felt in any relationships, than breakup will be a pleasant experience.

Tiger Wood scandal may not have any impact on our daily lives, but it can be a great teaching tool as a case study to learn from other people’s experiences.

To have a positive pleasant relationship, first start by respecting each other, be it in family, friends, boy-girl relationship or in business. Respect comes first. Honesty comes second followed by responsibility for one’s action comes third.

Big

posted by ryan

In life, everything we do, we want a bigger share of the slice, be it business, relationship, food, home or assets, we never fail to desire and seek for bigger and better items to indulge ourselves in especially luxury and pleasure and holidays traveling.

Big is important, the bigger items and assets you possess, the bigger you influence will have on other businesses. Being successful with results will attract more talents below you, wanting to learn the steps from you.

With more influential power, the ability to influence and the words creating stir among people, when this phenomenon happens, you will soon be on your way to be a outstanding person commanding respect, fellowship of seekers wanting to be kept under your wings.

Big are not rocket science, but a gradual genetic thirst and intense urge of desire to increase our share in whatever we do. This happens even in the cat family, tigers, lions, leopard and jugular and among the reptiles. The bigger they grow, the larger stomach they have, the increase of volume in food or prey they target.

Growing bigger is a natural progression, if you don’t seek to improve your standards of living and lifestyle, denying yourself, your body and your genes of the natural instincts to grow and get stronger, you of course will get weaker as each day pass, and be consumed by other larger animals.

Big is beautiful. It happens in both genders.

Females seek beauty in terms of both physically, and deeper wallet size to allow them to spend happily swiping the credit cards on a shopping spree thus ladies will naturally without fail look up to a man who can provide financially for the ladies. Even if there’s no love, the lady will still stick to the man who’s the provider. This again is inside the genes, since apes gradually evolve into barbarians than to modern man today.

Males without say look for materialistic gains but by being practical and doing it within their ability in terms of assets, wealth, influential power, commanding respect from people, get acknowledgment from even their competitors.  Respect comes not from being able to earn money, but is built when they are entrusted with secrets that ties to reputation and they will not try to oust out a fellow competitor via underhand tricks such as accusations, piracy etc.

Look at Tiger Woods incident, the sex addiction scandal was not at all surprise among the golf professionals in the inner circle of the golf association, in fact other golf professionals even helped Tiger to cover up for his personal life matters. Personal and business issues will never ever be mixed together, that’s one rule of alpha males, an unspoken rule binding all successful professionals together.

There were news articles reports which mention about this, and also on reports that the ladies regretted not listen to the advice to remain silence in return for money benefits and choose to reveal it to the media. Why the regrets, read newspapers to find out more, I know it, because I’ve read that book which told me all about the unspoken rules of alpha males which was meant for ladies, but I borrowed it to read and gain unlimited wisdom and in-depth understanding.

The reason why businessmen never fails to be a sore topic among ladies claiming for equality is already written all over different books, but they just don’t spread out, thus when men see such things, they are often ignored. The unspoken language of the successful wealthy businessmen, to be like them, if ladies can’t beat them, why not join them but first thing first, there are lots of steps to take to be able to join the bandwagon.

The core reason why people always say businessmen and not businesswomen is solely because it’s a fact that alpha males rule the world, not the government, the holder of wealth calls the shot. To win the game, you first have to learn the rules of the game. Not learning yet playing will only result in unfavorable results working against you.

Alpha male value honor and integrity while beta males, alpha females and females will just take it with a pinch of salt and do steps that sabotage and ruin their own future without anybody doing anything.

Learn the rules of the game, if you don’t be prepared to be left behind and you will not even notice who speed up the process even if the compliance and person who wants to get rid of you are standing in front of you.

To survive, learn the rules and stick to it or you will be axed in an instant without knowing who and why.
