What Recession? An Opportunity?

It Is Not The Economy of Gloom, My Friends – It Is Opportunity.

My stock portfolio is down 80%. My colleagues and friends are losing their jobs every day. Gas Prices are inching upwards. Food and consumables cost an arm and a leg. Real Estate is … well, you already know.

What industries are surviving in this economic downturn? Automobile sales are going low, low, low. Retail sales are so bad that some of the staid, reliable corporations are closing down every day. More layoffs, more havoc, too much chaos.

So where do we turn? Which industries or niche markets are the ones that are still on the forefront of profitability?

Believe it or not, the pundits as well as computed stats tell us that the best industries to become profitable and have any hope of making cash money are antiques, used products, auctions, bartering venues, and the like.

Here’s an example based upon my personal experience.

I drove my Ford F-150 from Austin, TX to Boise, ID to Overland Park, KS. Safe trip. I have 2-4 more payments to make to finally pay off this awesome girl of mine. Then BAM! Crash! Insurance adjuster says, the truck is totaled. Here is $4000.00. Thank you very much, Ms. Faith Renee Sloan.

I laughed. I am alive and it is only a truck. But financially, it could have been a disaster.

I cleared my head of cobwebs and remembered a friend of mine from the dot com days in the California Bay Area. So, I opened up my browser and went to an online advertising web site

I zeroed in and searched for trucks in the Kansas City, MO area at a maximum of $7000.00.

VOILA! I saw this beauty being advertised. I just had to have her. But you know it could appear better in photos than in person.

I called the owner, took it for a spin, had my mechanic give her a once over, went to the bank, withdrew $6,500.00 (no way will I pay advertised price), and drove away in a stellar condition 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 with a popping HEMI Magnum V8 engine, tinted windows, awesome sound system, the works …

Sweet for this 5′2″, 126 lbs (57.3kg) woman with a penchant for power and speed.

A dealer would have charged me at least $12,000.00 for such a charm. How about that?

The moral of the story is that in our dire economic times, the barter … the auctions … the peer to peer transactions will rule even more than ever.

Take advantage of this ladies and gentlemen.

There is one company quickly becoming a name on the map, Affordable Affiliates is putting its mark on the industry. And it is a very high mark.

Their products range from high-end antiques, household furniture, medical equipment, and industrial/commercial inventory.

In the past month over 8000 affiliates have expressed interest in sharing in their huge profit potential.

See how you can share in the profits of this burgeoning industry while it is hot.

This economic downturn will truly pass but in the meantime, why not profit?

Also why not show your charitable colors as well. You can choose any charity of your liking and they will contribute 5% of the profits AND they have relationships with Autism and Aboriginal related charities.
