Howdy Reader!

After last night's email, I got a message from my client.

He asked how my week was going.

He also mentioned that I was up late last night.

Because he reads my newsletter.

To be fair, he's a good friend and we've encouraged one another for a while.

But it's a helpful reminder that emails, comments, likes, whatever aren't the whole story.

Those are the indications you can see.

Beyond that, though, there are more people that are reading or watching what you do.

So the post that doesn't get any reactions probably wasn't completely unread.

And showing up regularly encourages more of those readers to reach out and take action.

Let's grow together!

Howdy Reader! I sell a bit on eBay. For this year, all of my sales center around one thing: Currency with special serial numbers. My knowledge has led me to 1) buy dollar bills for under two dollars apiece, and 2) sell them for nearly $12 each. Eleven dollar bills have sold this year for a total of $130. Not bad! They just kind of sat there until buyers found them. Thing is, I didn't learn about these overnight. I've spent many hours over the past year looking at auctions, and curating my...

Howdy Reader! There's passive income, like dividends and interest. Then there's residual income, like royalties, commissions, and product sales. This week I sold a couple more copies of my Obsidian Starter Kit for Content Creators. Three dollars and sixty-two cents, after fees. It's proof of concept income, but not "I can quit now" income. The main driver, all other things being equal, is traffic. More people visiting the sales page means more sales, other things being equal. By doing more of...

Howdy Reader! Dick Van Dyke turns 100 today. He's in a class all his own, of course. But even just considering his age, he's still in an elite group: Only 1 in about 5,000 people in the US live to 100. A hundred years, as long as that is, is only 5,217 weeks. For us "mere mortals," we might get around 4,000. Every TGIF ticks one of those weeks off the calendar. Make sure they count! Let's grow together! ~ John P.S.
