About this ebook
Acres of Diamonds is a classic personal development book about a farmer who heard about others discovering vast diamond mines. So he sold his farm and began a fruitless worldwide search for his diamond fortune. Discouraged and broke he eventually threw himself into a river and drowned.
The new owner of his farm found an unusual looking stone on his property that was eventually determined to be a diamond. His farm became the site of the largest diamond mine ever.
Moral of the story? There are opportunities (diamonds) in your own backyard if you but search for them. And that’s the message of this new book by Tommi Pryor and Vic Johnson: How To Make Extra Money: 100 Perfect Businesses for Part-Time and Retirement Income.
This is an IDEA book, not a how-to book. And most of the time the problem is the IDEA and not the how-to.
Inside you’ll find:
* Business ideas for pet lovers, outdoor lovers, indoor lovers and everything in between
* Love to cook? Turn it into cold hard cash with any one of these six ways (including Paula Deen’s secret before she became a star)
* Unlikely ways you can turn your hobby into a steady check – bet you never thought about doing video wills for $50-$150 an hour
* Get paid $200-$500 and more for using your knack for decorating to help banks unload the millions of foreclosed homes they’re stuck with
And there’s 96 more ideas waiting inside. So find yours now!
** Includes an offer for a FREE DVD of one of the hottest part-time businesses ever **
