How to Lose 450 pounds and let a fortune slip through your fingers...

Love the concept, Gordon, but losing weight isn't that simple for the majority of folks, actually. It's more WHAT than HOW MUCH you eat...AND the health and genetic history of the body consuming it. If more people would accept that reality (and act accordingly), the obesity problem would be mostly history.

If you don't have a healthy body (from a functional standpoint) all the dieting in the world won't have any positive results.

If you don't pay attention to your genetic history you end up bloated and miserable like most Asians who drink too much milk, for example.

If a certain food goes right through a person virtually unchanged, they could eat a figurative ton of it without gaining an ounce so calories aren't the answer either.

Just as one size doesn't fit all, one diet doesn't fit all either and this is where Codex Alimentarius and the Food Pyramids, RDA's (recommended daily allowances) and all those other guidelines fail miserably.

Dieting, eating properly for your optimum health, and even exercise needs are as individual as each person is...no easy answers and no platitudes will change those facts.

Gordon says "what is there... that YOU could
"franchise"...or the easier and just as profitable route: LICENSE?"

I publish a monthly real estate book. Started it about a year ago. I've been tossing around the idea of licenseing the book. A couple of months ago I got a call from a girl in a neighboring state asking if I sold a package for her to do her own book in her area. This was an opportunity to get an upfront License Fee and a monthly residule.

A friend of mine has 13 people paying him royalty fees of $300 per month each on a free pick up publication he licensed to them and gets between $10,000 and $20,000 each up front and he's really just getting started. In each of these publications the licensee also has to run 'Own Your Own Business' ads. This gets him more leads for more books in other areas. A really great concept.

This is an excellent way to get into a toll position. Take what you do and show someone else how to do it for a fee and monthly royalty.

Anyone else?

I was a performer for quite a few years and developed a character, promo materials, support files, everything that could be licensed.

Hmmmm.......

I'm thinking....I'm thinking.....
