  •  I attended the property course in Durban on 20th August 2005, and WOW has it changed my families and my life.

    Firstly I signed up for the mentoring course and then started thinking `out of the box` due to the challenges that Hannes set in the weekly articles. My youngest son has altered his life completely - he is also thinking `out of the box`. We have been so contained in a mundane life for so long that it is unbeleivable that we never did anything before. Whenever the family is together (as my sons don`t live at home) we have brain storming sessions going on all the time, motivating each other, getting new ideas and generally being positive. The family ties have become stronger and everybody, my wife and my two boys have interacted better and work as a cohesive unit. We now have friends looking at us strangely and thinking we have gone completely mad with all the `out the box` thinking. So, from a family perspective, we have definitely found a deeper love and bond for each other.

    We have also started investing in ourselves in terms of education. Motivational, inspirational, entrepreneurial and finance books are being read around the family with books being passed on from member to member. At the moment the books cannot be read fast enough and there is always somebody waiting for the book you are busy with. The whole family now has their own copy of Rich Dad Poor Dad. We have discovered that we really need to understand our finances better and to also understand property and shares a whole lot better. We have been looking for property opportunities, however we have not found one yet. This is just a matter of time as we are learning. We have visisted auctions, spoken to estate agents, spoken to banks about our ideas and also done vast amounts of research on the internet. This is our investment in ourselves. By the way we already have two free properties bringing in a nice income which were purchased 3 years ago.

    We are already in the process of starting 4 business opportunites. Two of them will be on the internet which will be costing us nothing as we have offered a split on profits to a web developer. The first one is being launched as we speak, and the second one will be dealt with shortly. One of the other businesses involves the selling of products. These products are being sourced locally as well as from India and China. The products from India and China are made from components manufactured in South Africa that are exported from South Africa to India and China and the local factory making the components is prepared to import the completed products back into South Africa to promote their production facility. They have approached us to just sell the products locally with them doing all the importing, exporting and storage at no cost to ourselves. This business will probably start up in the next month or two. The next business is for the manufacture of a product that we have designed locally. This product will take some time to launch due to the complexity of manufacture. We might need a partner to assist us in this regard as it is manufactured from aluminium which is quite difficult to work with. Maybe we will get an investor interested and take it from there - anybody interested? This has been or process to accumulate passive income.

    To sum up - we have had a huge change in our lives in just 5 weeks. I need to thank a good friend of mine most sincerely as he asked me to join him on 20th August 2005 in Durban to listen to Hannes. Oh by the way, we have taken a huge turnaround in our IT business that we run which should start reaping benefits in about a years time.

    Cheers for now - it has been wonderful writing this article and I could go on a lot longer.
