Affiliate marketing is a much faster way to grow than traditional advertising, direct mail, or other forms of driving cold leads. [2007] - Chet Holmes

Sleep Efficiency (%) = Time Spent Asleep ÷ Time Spent in Bed x 100. We'll say 85-90% is the target. Humans wake up when they sleep. That's not only okay, but normal. So aiming for 100% is an unrealistic goal. It's okay to nap when: 1. Your nighttime sleep is efficient yet despite this, you still feel sleepy (not fatigued--sleepy). 2. And the napping doesn't disturb your schedule for the upcoming night. A nap is typically intended to complement or enhance an efficient night of sleep. It's not meant to make up for lost sleep when the sleeper had the opportunity to sleep but did not. [2017] - W. Chris Winter

If the math doesn't' seem to work on a certain type of investment in your area, perhaps it's time to consider what is working. Would wholesaling commercial properties be a better use of your time? What about multifamily properties? How about condo conversions? What about fast food triple-net leases? Have you considered subsidized low-income housing? To find what is working in your town, simply connect with investors who are actively engaged in your market. What are they investing in? How are they making a profit? Discover the secret to their success, and you'll find the path to yours. [2015] - Brandon Turner

If you convert to a RRIF, you have to manage your own portfolio of investments. If you're sick and tired of thinking about money and all you want is a regular stream of income you don't have to worry about, then you may want to buy an annuity. The really big thing to know about an annuity is that the payout is based on where interest rates are where you purchase the annuity. During periods of high interest rates an annuity can really make your hard-earned money sing since you're locking in that high rate for the life of the plan. When rates are low, not so much. [2013] - Gail Vaz-Oxlade
