Why should I trust this blog? The OVERVIEW

There are many blogs which are a source for people to publish their views, experiences and knowledge, unfortunately there is a lot of bad information on the web.  If you can filter out the bad information and learn the good information you will be successful. The links and sources I post, will only come from people who have been extremely successful in their field of expertise. The people I learnt from range from billionaire businessman, Sociologist's, World class Trader's, Founder's of social networking and Genius scientist's. To name but a few of the sources: Blaise Pascal, Christopher Hitchens, Mike Harris, Thomas power, Daniel Priestley, Simon Dixon, Mike Baghdady and Sir Richard Branson. 


I studied Physics, Biology, Maths and Design & Technology throughout school, I got relatively good grades but never applied myself. I went to university in London and read Law, it was interesting but unfortunately not stimulating enough for a person who wanted to live in the present. Finishing university I decided I wanted to enter "The City" and get fully involved in business. By "The City" I mean the square mile in London where all the business and banking occurs. This is the heart of everything in the world! If you own a house, business or just have a bank account it's run by these institution's. The world runs on money and the Banks and big corporations own the money (well actually they don't, but we'll get to that later). I got a good job at Fidelity Investment Manager's and learnt to trade oil commodities and other indices on the side at work. I had a job, was doing well and had met some fascinating and forward thinking people who opened my eyes to the digital revolution, my career prospect's were looking good.


Amusingly the sources which I had used to get my great job and financial freedom were also the sources which have spurred me to leave the large corporation and start a global online business (soon to be revealed). The point I am trying to make is that Digital is the future, if your not online, your nothing. The power of the internet has far surpassed that of the normal store front or even person. Before anyone reads your CV they will search for you on google and facebook. If you want to buy a book, you place an order on Amazon an 12 hours later it has arrived. If I want to buy some orchids I can order them online and within 24 hours of them being cut in China they will arrive fresh at my door in London. Being digital and online is the future, but don't take my word for it.


I'm going to leave you with 2 videos for you to make your own mind up. It's the best 15 minutes of watching you will spend. Enjoy.
