Have you heard of the "Middle Income Model"? Its what most of us here in the United States have been taught. Tell me if this sage advice sounds familiar: Learn a trade or profession, work for 25 to 30 years, then retire on an income that is less than what we were making in the peak of our career. Sounds like a winner, right? Wrong! Statistics show that this model doesn’t work, since very few people retire in self-sufficiency or prosperity. An alternative to the Middle Income Model is to become an entrepreneur and start your own small business. Although the advantages are huge, there are also disadvantages. Listen in on the rest of the Episode, and see if you wish to pursue an entrepreneurial track.
