Perhaps, one that I have touched upon and not explored extensively is "OPM" -- Other People's Money. When the 31-STEPS started, it was with the change (mere pennies) that I found around the house.

After that I have used NO personal monies to build the STEPS.

First I proceeded to use Google's Adsense (the ads seen on this site) and a network of sites to build more steps. I also added a Clickbank mall. Then I proceeded to research the best programs to promote. I added that and all the features of Maxsimo.NET to build further.

All the work will put me between STEP 21 and 22 by the end of the year. Now I have made a plan for the LAST 10 STEPS. The timing is rather fortunate as the software running the network is the best it's been in 7 years.

My plan centers around using the traffic to the network, the network itself with its tools, services and applications, and the membership that I am building around the ideas developed via NEXTSuperStock -.COM and .NET to build the last 10 STEPS.

Over the coming days I'll discuss the below plan with those I know, and work with a total of 9 account holders -- I already have my business partner on board, taking up the first position with one account, the second account is the collection of "instances" of 31-STEPS (there are 7 of them that I am managing) that I've built. Two more accounts are taken by business friends that I have known for a long time. That leaves 5 open -- 1 @ $25,000 and 4 at $15,000. My objective is to add $200,000 to the $50,000 in capital available to the P31 success plan.

Moving forward with outside capital (OPM) I'll be able to:

1. Add several contests -- One for pure traffic. Another for Internet based ventures from around the world that need funding. I'll talk about both as the planning is made in the coming months.

2. Add to mailing lists -- our core business opportunity and investment lists will grow beyond 100,000 subscribers --if nothing is done with our existing setup. I would like to see around 500,000 daily subscribers by the summer or fall of 2007. I'll have to have a full-time Associate to manage the mailing list content. The software for delivery of these lists are already in place, so, the focus is to keep building the network.

Gradual execution of THE PLAN...

Now to the below image --It's a depiction of what will be done with the 8 individuals that will participate with me. The funds that are collected will be used in the following manner:

1> 33% will be used to build the Maxsimo.NET network and expand what has worked. Everything from the use of Google's Adwords to the network of sites will be expanded. And as I mentioned, I'll add the contest items that are above. Overall, these funds will be used to expand all 7 accounts that I create. Expanding the accounts, expands the network, which in-turn expands the accounts. Success leads to success.

2> 33% will be used in the stocks identified on a monthly basis by NEXTsuperstock.NET. These are mostly micro and small cap stocks. I will identify about 6 to 10 stocks during a year where these funds are invested. The goal with each stock purchase is a 20% to 100% return, using the management technique that I've perfected. The summary of that technique is: Don't be greedy.

Both items above will be conducted on a corporate basis.

3> Lastly, 33% will be used to invest in core stocks that are part of NEXTsuperstock.COM. These are among the fast-growing, most profitable companies listed in the USA financial markets. These are the companies that are current and future leaders in their technologies, management and sectors.

SUMMARY: Funds will be built at #1 and #2 and added to #3 on a continuous basis until I achieve the last 10 STEPS of the P-31 STEP success plan that is depicted in the below image. Of course, I could do all this myself. But the idea here is to leverage OPM to do it quicker. Much quicker, as I'll charge 20% of the gains and use that to build more.

When I write the above, I have to remember that in a book about Warren Buffet, I learned that when he setup his first fund, his total "input" was $100.00. Yes, that was the extent of it.

About the Chart: 1. I have purposely omitted the name of the resources that I use. In the accounts that I'll manage no fees will be charged when the annual return is less than 20%. Collectively, account must be over $1M to start the fees. 2. After the $1M goal and 20% annual return thresholds are met, I'll charge 20% as an account management fee.

12 MANAGED ACCOUNTS* Project Summary: P31.COM -- Creating a managed account that uses the ideas, research and results that are discussed at p31.com (see blog link) to build an account from $250,000 to $10,737,418.24. I started the project as stated on DAY 1. The project continued with earnings from Clickbank, Google and Maxsimo.NET. Towards the end of this month I'll reach the 500th update. I will then use December to professionally update the site, remove a lot of content that does not work and add more of what works. My FEE for THIS PROJECT: A. 20% of account return, after $1M threshold is met and annual return over 20%. B. There is no fee up to 20% return, there is no setup fee or up-front fee. All broker and taxes apply, and that is the account holders responsibility. *This message was sent as a private message to individuals that are friends, colleagues and neighbors. This is not a public offer, nor is it a solicitation for selling securities or financial advice. This page is published here as information to detail part of my 31-STEP success plan.

The above plan was updated Saturday the 4th of November. I will be updating the progress, additional thoughts, etc. in the coming weeks as I shift from the network setup to day to day investment and growth.

A good weekend to you. Carpe Diem, Sam out.

Below is the commentary that I placed here as part of 26 emails that I wrote for the network.

FREE is GOOD. BUT PAID is BETTER

UPDATE:
Monday, 16-Oct-2006 4:41 PM

The free services that are part of maxsimo.NET are there to build traffic and new Members. However, very little of those services can be "given out for free" when real development cost money.

Perhaps, the biggest problem we've had is to retain good programmers. That is impossible unless the company is making money and growing.

Growth, profits and robust services are the way to go. Below I'll list the advantages of upgrading the Maxsimo.NET membership.

UPGRADE BENEFITS #3 REASON

The biig.com directory and several other tools, services and applications allow multiple insertions of your links based on key words.
