Here’s my my favorite money making quote of all time: “Somebody said to me, ‘But the Beatles were anti-materialistic.’ That’s a huge myth. John and I literally used to sit down and say, ‘Now, let’s write a swimming pool.’â€? — Paul McCartney.

I love it. It is the type of message that gets stuck in my craw. The wisdom you can take from it is if you have a unique skill, you can work at it until it’s a new house, car, boat or swimming pool.

The great thing about this is you don’t have to trade one painting for a million dollars. All you need is to do something that makes you a dollar or two of profit and then go from there. Mass produce that skill or service. Convert it into another product. Spin off into new areas. Lather, rinse and repeat. Trade that skill or product until you have the money for your swimming pool.
