Forex Faculty thinks that forex trading is the ultimate way to take you to your financial freedom. But why? What are the reasons? Are they good? Also as importantly, are they valid?
There are a lot of people that have reached their financial freedom state. Take Bill Gates as an example. We bet a hundred bucks that he's financially free now. Did he get there by forex trading? Maybe, we don't know him personally but we're pretty sure it was most likely due to his business in developing the "Windows" platform.
Besides Bill Gates, there are a lot of other people that do not have to worry about their financial state but they have never been involved in currency trading before. So why does Forex Faculty make this controversial claim?
We want to persuade you that there is a very strong reason to start forex trading. This is one of the financial foundations toward a successful forex trading. You must realize the potential of forex trading before you can have the right mindset, attitude, and confidence while trading. And as you have probably known, having those 3 components are crucial in to make the appropriate decision during forex trading.
So first of all, let's be clear about the state of being "financially free". We should list the criteria of being financial freedom. We believe that achieving financial freedom should have the followings characteristics:

1. having sufficient income to cover the current "wants"
2. #1 should not be bounded by location, that is, having sufficient money anywhere
3. #1 should not be bounded by time, that is, having sufficient money anytime
4. #1 should be fast paced, that is, sufficient income should come at a rapid pace
5. #1 should be based on a safe environment, that is, can get income safely without worrying about scam, fraud, and the likes
6. there has to be a LOT of opportunity for #1. That is, when 1 opportunity is gone, another one is already at hand to be operated on
7. attaining #1 should be simple enough, that it does not require tremendous hardwork.
These are the Key Success Factor in attaining financial freedom. That means, if your curent job has a very strong similarty to those characteristics, then you are pursuing your financial freedom in the most effective way possible. And this is exactly the case with Forex Trading.
Forex Trading:

1. if successful, is one of the best source of income to cover all your "needs" and "wants". That is because it promises an unlimited return while at the same time you can significantly minimize the risk.
2. is not bounded by location. You can trade currencies anywhere there is an internet connection
3. is not bounded by time. You can trade currencies anytime as long as you are connected to the internet
4. is happening in a very fast pace fluctuating market. That means, you can earn a lot of money at a very rapid rate.
5. is very safe. As long as you are trading with a registered, trustable and respectable broker, your money is basically sitting there, untouched, for your trading convinience
6. involves 2 vertical dimensions and typically more than 5 horizontal dimensions. Whether the market is going down or up, you can earn money. And when a market of a specific currency is not presenting good opportunity, you can always switch to another market.
7. And lastly, forex trading is one of the simplest forms of investments.

FOREX

Entering into the 1950s, the United States of America had a distinct advantage over war-torn Europe. While Germany was heavily sanctioned, England, France, Italy, and several other Old World nations were just coming to terms with the heavy investment needed to rebuild their countries.
As a way to make it easier for the rest of the world to rebuild, the Bretton Woods Agreement was adopted. It was innocuously simple: in an effort to keep the United States of America (USA) from buying everything in sight, the Bretton Woods Agreement kept the USA in check by requiring all foreign currencies be pegged to the US Dollar. Some pegs were strong, some pegs were weak, but at the end of the day they never moved more than 1% in any direction. Like today's problem with the Chinese Yuan, forced to a peg against the dollar, it kept a constant, controlled flow of US dollars out of the country.

Decrease Your Income Tax Bite With Income Splitting

is your business going to make too much money this year? Then now's the time you should be planning ahead to lessen your income tax bite by splitting your business income within your family.

The basic theory behind income splitting is simple. You will pay less tax if you make less money because of the sliding tax rates. Income splitting is the transfer of income from a person in a higher income tax bracket to a person in a lower income tax bracket. As a business, you can decrease your actual income by hiring your spouse and/or children as employees, and passing along some of your business income to them in the form of salary or wages.

Suppose, for instance, your business' net income is $75,000. But your spouse has been working in the business all that year, and you paid him a salary of $30,000. Your net income drops to $45,000, a considerable tax savings for you. And, because your spouse's income of $30,000 is taxed at an even lower income tax rate, you get, in effect, a double tax savings.

And income tax savings are not the only benefits to this tax strategy. Because your spouse now has an income, he or she will be contributing to the CPP and able to contribute to an RRSP, helping you both build a more comfortable retirement.

So what are the catches to income splitting? First, your spouse has to actually work for the business. That means he or she has to have designated duties that he or she carries out, just like any other employee. And as the employer, you have to keep and maintain the requisite employee records. Just saying that your spouse worked for you last year and picking a number you like out of the air is not enough.

Secondly, as the employer, you have to pay your spouse a salary or wage commensurate with the salary or wage you would pay anyone else to do the same job. You can't pay him or her $70,000 to do basic office tasks, such as filing and answering the phones, for example. If your spouse is working for you as an office assistant, you need to pay him or her a rate equal to what other office assistants make.

Keeping employee records and paying your spouse an appropriate wage or salary is a small price to pay, however, for such powerful income tax benefits. If your spouse or child isn't already an employee of yours, maybe it's time to think seriously about what he or she could do for your business.

You can find out more about how to put the power of income splitting to work for you by talking to your accountan

Customized Marketing

During my years as a marketing and service consultant, I learned that you have to give before you receive and that's what customized marketing is all about.

This is a simple rule and you might say, "Why, we are business persons! We are pragmatic and go straight to the point! We mail our price list or our delivery schedule to prospective customers or clients."

But that's not enough. Instead of just giving the customer the same thing that every other customer is given, why not write a small report describing what you can do for the other company and how you will do it?

Customized marketing does not mean giving away all your secrets, contacts or giving the solutions for free. It means giving your prospective customers the information they need to do business with you, and will only give you an edge over your competitors. This kind of directed, specific marketing might take a few hours of your time but you will certainly win or keep a new customer.

Remember the following:

1. 80% of your business comes from 20% of your customers;

2. Finding a new customer is harder than keeping the ones you have.
