Will You Add? - Who's Taking Your Money? (And How To Get Some Of It Back!)
Outside Influences - Who or What is Getting in the Way of Your Success? tar, Everlast, Lightning Bolt, Hang Ten, Lee Cooper, Amco. Home: Tontine, Sleepmaker, Doona, Simmons, Serta, Dunlopillo, Ultrafresh, Enduro, Venus & Mars.When most people start their entrepreneurial journey, they tell almost nobody. These new entrepreneurs are afraid that other people will tell them that being an entrepreneur is not a career choice. They are afraid that people will judge them as “dreamers.” They are afraid that others will tell them that it is not possible. After all of this negative influence, new entrepreneurs begin to believe that success is not possible. They begin to believe that they are on a dead-end path that can only lead to financial hardship. If you let them, these negative influences can alter or even destroy your goals and dreams.Not all outside influences are negative. Many times, friends and family members will support your journey. You have to hold onto these positive influences and block out the negative flack. The positive influences you receive will help fuel your motivation and drive.There are many ways to deal with negative influences. First, you can refrain from telling people about your entrepreneurial journey. Shoes: Candy, Julius Marlowe, Clarks, Hush Puppies, Grosby, Sachi, CAT.

Quiet achiever Biotech Capital (ASX: BTC) is a conglomerate of many pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, including one that claims to have a drug that stops the spread of AIDS through fluid contact (does not cure AIDS, but stops its spread), and a company that makes pain killers out of spider venom, I kid you not.

Securing my shelter entails payments to the local council (rates, water, land taxes etc), bank interest and also house and contents insurance. Fortunately, I get a better deal on my insurances by insuring where I bank, so the one company takes my money for all three, and I own a part of them in return. Clothing, well, most of my stuff is corporate wardrobe, so I definitely have ownership in that company, and if I was working for myself you can bet that I would STILL have my company name emblazoned on my chest… This would be for reason of tax deductibility rather than vanity. Vanity and pretty clothes is my wife’s department, which is why I ensure that I own portions of those companies also. LEGAL WARNING: Before investing into any company, make sure that you do your homework, to make sure that the company is good and selling for a reasonable price. Also, get professional advice before you invest. Invest where you spend, sounds easy… is it? Let’s have a look in Australia and find out who is the name behind the brands, that is, “who is taking your money” and where you should possibly invest to get it back. “Lucky, you’re with AAMI”… and Vero, and Asteron…. Promina (ASX: PMN): The insurance company that most people have never heard of. It has various trading names and companies that it owns, including AAMI, Shannons, Australian Pensioners Insurance Agency (APIA), Royal & Sun Alliance, Guardian, Vero, Tyndall, Mariner, AA Insurance, Axiom, Autosure, Asteron and Secure Sentinel. “Just jeans?”… and shirts, suits, and dresses… The Just Group (ASX: JST): Apparently these people own and operate all of the Just Jeans retail stores, in addition to keeping busy with other retail fashion outlets. They also own Jay Jays, Portmans, Peter Alexander, Urban Brands and Jacqui-E (my wife’s natural habitat!). Too cool for school, and too many brands… Australian Globe Group (ASX: GLB) sell under the brand name Globe, also M-One-11, Stussy, Mooks, DarkStar, World Industries, Stage Nine, FreshJive, Gallaz, Blind (Blind Body Bags), Mossimo, Almost, Quattra, Grind, Sista, Enjoi, Speed Demons, Tensor, Sandolls, Ecko (Ecko Unlimited), Independent, Paul Frank (that darn monkey face which seems to be the New Millenium’s answer to Warhol’s “Marilyn Monroe”), Legacy, Girl, Chocolate, Royal, Diamond, Fourstar, Blitz, Anger Mgt, Birdhouse, Flip, The Firm, Fury, Hookups, Santa Cruz, Ricta, TSG, Bootleg, Venture & Awake… If you have ever seen a skater or surfer with shoes or a shirt on, chances are they will be wearing one of the above brands. It’s so much FUN to invest, especially when you can make money across cultures and age-groups… Funtastic Limited (ASX: FUN) sell so many things that I am gonna have to poke you with a stick… Obviously more brands than you can poke a stick at, but unless you are under 12, I may have to poke you with a stick to keep you awake throughout the list. Many of these will be on every child’s Christmas list. Here goes… Disney, Goldstar, Action Man, Bratz, Care Bears, Hot Wheels, Tonka, Spiderman, Cat in the Hat, Justice League, Strawberry Shortcake, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Yu-Gi-Oh, The Crocodile Hunter, The Wiggles, Thunderbirds, Bananas in Pyjamas, Bey Blade, Finding Nemo, Toy Story, Tomy, Razor, Choppa, 2DX, 180-s, Aerial, Ford Performance, Hi-5, Thomas the Tank Engine, Barbie, Bob the Builder, Minx, Piranha, Vibes, Dome, Jolie, Hulk, Looney Toons, Zoids, Beacon, Chupa-Chups, Warheads, Pez, Fisher Price, The Incredibles, Lion King, The Saddle Club, Slinky, Nikki Webster, Beach Crew, BeDeGirls, Blues Union, Boom Doggers, Miss Shop, SixOneNine, STE, Cabbage Patch Kids, Wild Planet, Spy Gear, Undercover Girl, Aztek, Sea Monkeys, Revell Models, Testors, Crush Gear, Astroboy, Power Rangers. (Whew!) There may be more, check out their website or annual report to learn more. Suffice to say that Funtastic make money from infant’s toys (Tomy), confectionery (Chupa-chups), pushbikes (Razor, 2DX), and every toy that any boy or girl would want to own, until they discover mobile phones and the opposite sex… Cool, clear, and dearer than Beer! Bottled water comes in varieties such as Mount Franklin, Powerade, Pump and Neverfail… all four of these water labels are owned by Coca-Cola Amatil Limited (ASX: CCL). They also make some type of sweet fizzy drinks… But you probably knew that already. Pause and take a breath here, you're about halfway... Recently floated company Pacific Brands Group (ASX: PBG) is also an enormous silent giant. At last count, there were maybe forty brands of clothing and sporting goods. See if you can recognise any of them. Underwear: Playtex, Formfit, Kayser, Hestia, Antz Pantz, Kolotex, Berlei, Love Kylie (yes, Minogue), Bonds (yes, Chesty), RazzaMatazz, Red Robin, Holeproof, Rio, Jockey, Schiaparelli, Voodoo, Explorer Socks, Cottontails, Bonds Wondersuits, Underdaks, Hanes, Canterbury. Work & Play: King Gee, Nibblick, Dunlop Sport, Repco, Slazenger, Maxfli, Stubbies, Rosebank (“Stackhats”), Malvern Star, Everlast, Lightning Bolt, Hang Ten, Lee Cooper, Amco.
