Four Trends That Can Make You Wealthy

The wealthiest people in the world acquired their wealth through a careful recognition and exploitation of a major trend. For example, Bill Gates took advantage of the birth of personal computers and made billions by marketing software that enabled people to use their computer. Sam Walton took advantage of a trend in retail sales and developed a self-service, discount department store concept that became Wal-Mart.

We are at the brink of four major trends. These trends are the Internet, the aging of the world’s population, the exploding home-based business market, and the growth of the wellness industry.

First, the Internet is an exciting marketplace, made up of nearly 1 billion global users. People have become accustomed to using the Internet to purchase products, and have gained confidence in its security and ease of use.

Second, the world’s population is aging. One-third of the population was born between 1946 and 1962, and over 18,000 people turn 50 years old everyday. This offers a huge market potential for people who can address the needs of older adults.

Third, the home-based business craze is sweeping the world to the tune of over 14,000 new home-based businesses starting each day. People are coming to terms with the fact that Social Security and pension funds will not allow them to enjoy a standard of living that meets their expectations. In fact, the U.S. Census Bureau estimates most people in America will retire on less than $10,000 per year.

Fourth, people around the world have become more concerned with their health. There is a current trend to spend more money on natural or organic foods, and quality supplements.

In my opinion, creating wealth has never been easier for people willing and able to recognize and capitalize on these four trends. Find an Internet, home-based business that addresses the needs of older adults, and you’ll have a winner.
