Halloween Profits – A Magic Moment

Seth Godin points out in That magic moment, “In the right moment, something goes from ordinary to precious. From everyday to essential.”

The key to his insight is timing. Anticipating an opportunity before it arises (Halloween Profits) allows you to prepare and strike while the opportunity is fresh. When you read about the opportunity after it hits the news, often times you’ve missed that early mover advantage.

If only all opportunities were as easy to predict as buying at a 75% discount the few days after Halloween. Have a potential opportunity you’re willing to share? Let me know!

Ben Edwards, the founder of Money Smart Life, saved up enough to buy a Nintendo back when he was 12 years old. When he used the money to buy shares of Wal-Mart stock instead, he knew he wasn't like the other kids... His addiction to personal finance has paid off for his family and now he's helping you to afford the life that you want.
