While you may not have been born with a silver spoon in your mouth or robed in gems, it is possible to learn how to become rich with no money. However, it will take some work and dedication. While some people will be happy with a little extra spending money and a nice vacation each year, others want the world. And then there are those whose idea of wealthy has nothing to do with money; rather they find abundance and contentment through the love of their family and friends. It just depends on how you personally choose to define “rich”.

The first step in the process of making money with no money, is to recognize yourself and define your goals. The next thing you need to do is make sure your goals are realistic. If there is some question, then just go ahead and leave your goals as high-brow and you are hoping for, but make sure to assess after one month. You may have to realign your goals to make them more practical.

Goals don't happen in a vacuum. You need a plan of action as well. It doesn't have to be as sophisticated as a formal business plan.http://www.entrepreneur.com/businessplan/ But what are you going to do besides cutting costs to proactively create a nice nest egg for yourself that you can then use to capitalize from? You have to define your talents. There must be something that you can make (and sell a a product) or some service that you can perform and offer. Be humble, don't expect to be paid exorbitant amounts at the beginning, or even to be acknowledged for your efforts, but don't give up! Tenacity and good will always pay off. Whether it's mowing lawns, acting as a handyman, growing food for your local farmer's market, or cleaning house or online editing, you've got to put yourself out there!http://www.articlesbase.com/business-opportunities-articles/becoming-a-handyman-in-your-home-town-1783003.html

The first factor is savings. And, you likely ask, how I save when I don’t have any money to save? The answer is you cut corners. Easy ways to start:

1. Cutting expenses.
   
   
2. Getting a job that pays more than you get paid now, getting a second job, or getting a promotion at your current job.
   
   
3. Give up your car and take the bus and get rid of the monthly car payment and the insurance payment. Or downgrade and get something with no payments or small payments.
   
   

Our goal is to save money. Yes, it takes money to make money, as we all know. It is very seldom that we find the golden dollar sitting on the sidewalk right before our nose. So follow the guidelines above and start stocking away every penny. If you go to eat out, think twice, even if your bank account seems wealthy. These are the simple steps that will make the difference in the end. Concentrate on ways to make extra money. While you don’t want to touch too many Internet schemes, as many of them are scams, there are opportunities that will help to bring additional income The best savings each month, however, will likely be your car. Also, do your own laundry instead of having it sent out. If you have children, make their lunch instead of having them buy it at school and have them too help with the family earning. They can mow lawns or wash windows for additional spending money. And, by all means, set up a separate account for your “getting rich” savings.

Once you get to where you want to be, don’t stop. Keep practicing the steps that got you there. Don’t be unwise with your money, the market is always changing, and your stocks or investments could take a dramatic turn. You should always keep the “get rich” fund and continue to stock as many pennies away each month into it as possible. In other words, don’t live like a filthy rich man until you are, and even then, always have enough to generate more money should something happen. Get rich and stay rich and keep the money process flowing. This will mean still cutting corners, not dipping into your savings, but starting an additional account that allows you to do a little more spending each month until you truly have built and empire that will last for many many years to come.

Don’t expect to be able to invest in the first few months, but after a year or possibly a few years of following the above guidelines, you will have plenty of money to invest at least in a penny stock or two….just kidding. Now, the best investment just may be an education, when you consider the long term allowance that an annual six figure income such as a physician could bring in.. This if you have always dreamed of a profession and the life style to go along with that profession now is the time to take advantage. The next consideration is to invest in stocks, bonds and other investments that will bring you money.http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/beginnerguide.asp While you may think stocks sound pretty risky, start with doing your education and purchasing a few penny stocks. Think of the present economy and what is going to go up. For example if you were to purchase in condoms when Aids hit the scene, you’d likely be a millionaire today. The venues give you a return on your money. Suppose you get a return on your investment of 8% depending on the amount you invest, it may be quite a generous return.
