2 Million Dollar Bills

I have finally made it to Barbados and the next stage of my game plan for making 2 million dollars is on track. My goal is to develop a variety of business interests in Barbados, which will help me to become a millionaire. I plan on achieving my goal of making 2 million dollars within 5 years, can I do it? Yes I can do it, the only person that can determine whether I will succeed or fail is, MYSELF.

Talk is cheap and anybody can say that they are going to become a millionaire and then they just sit around and wait for it to happen. In fact I use to do the same myself, how can you expect it to happen, when you a are wage slave. You will never become financially free as long as you work for the boss man and your life and finances are dictated to by someone else.

I have in the past being involved in business opportunities which basically were not worth my time and effort and were complete failures, and it took me a long time to get back on track and start working towards something more than just being a miserable wage slave, stuck in a rat race, wasting my life away, Don’t Let Past Business Failures Stop Your Dream of Running a Successful Business.

Eventually I came to the conclusion that the   the rat race was killing me and the only person that could change things was, you guessed it, ME. I was like everyone else in my work place, I would spend my time moaning about how much I hated the place, the pay was crap, I could never get my holidays when I wanted them, they were making us work harder and harder, they were really trying to get the last drop blood out of the stone.

It was I suppose fortunate that I received a nasty knee injury while I was working, which resulted in me being off work almost a year, when my work place very kindly made me an offer of just over £15,000 to leave. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I was never going to go back anyway! I eventually used my time off work wisely, I formulated my escape plan, I have Finally Escaped the Rat Race, But I Aint In Paradise Yet!

I wanted out of the UK, my wife and myself had a family house in Barbados and we both like the Island, so it was a logically move to relocate to Barbados. I then had to figure out how I was going to make money. I had to look at my previous college and work experiences and figure out if I could turn them into business ventures which would support my family and help me to achieve my goal of becoming a millionaire.

In order for me to achieve my goal of becoming a millionaire and make the 2 million dollar bills dream a reality, I needed to formulate a game plan that would allow me to work towards achieving my aims.

My main skills and what I like to do is plan and organize things, as well as the advertising and promotional aspects of a business.

I knew from personally getting married in Barbados last year and the fact that know one on the island could give my wife and myself the kind of wedding we wanted. Every wedding planner we talked to in Barbados was offering what I would call a conveyor belt wedding, they all lacked inspiration and Innovation. There was no way we could leave such an important day as our wedding day, in the hands of people that were clearly  not on the same wave length as us. 

My wife had worked as a wedding planner in London but she didn’t want to have to fully organize her own wedding because she knew the amount of time and effort that it would take up, she wanted to enjoy the lead up to the wedding and the wedding day itself without the headache of overseeing and organizing everything herself. But at the end of the day we were left with no choice but to do everything ourself’s.

My wife and myself pooled our skills and we created an amazing wedding, it involved a huge amount of thought, time and effort to create our vision of what we wanted.

My main skills were dealing with various suppliers and arranging to get them delivered to Barbados from America. I also arranged the catering team, marquee and created the outdoor ambiance at the venue. My wife dealt with and arranged all the more creative and design elements of the wedding. We pooled our skills and created one of the most amazing weddings ever in Barbados, for people that aren’t rich. Celebrations Caribee was born!

The first business venture was created and is called Celebrations Caribee, which is a wedding and event planning company. Through myself and my wife, who is my business partner, weddings and events will reach a level of creativity, innovation and quality that has been lacking in Barbados until now.

Another company that I have formed is called Awaken Paradise Property Consultants, the goal of this company is to arrange, organize and oversee the building of properties for people. I can source land, build or renovate properties to a high standard, which is done to UK standards and timescale’s, not Bajan! I can arrange top quality builder, architect, and a trustworthy lawyer.

Awaken Paradise Property Consultants came into being after seeing family members and friends of the family being ripped off by a variety unscrupulous builders. Too many people have been ripped off in Barbados by happy smiling builders that will promise you the world, take your money and end up building you a dangerous house or in some cases not building anything at all. I have seen too many returning nationals and tourists alike being cheated out of their hard earned money.

I also have a tourist related business which will offer something unique for people coming to Barbados, this will be live for the xmas season, if everything goes according to plan.

Making your business legal in Barbados is similar to setting up a company in the UK, as you are probably aware, as soon as you start using the services of a lawyer you end up spending lots of money. But it is worth it to have the start of your vision made a legal entity.

It is fantastic to see my business dreams and aspirations starting to take place and the first stages of the 2 million dollar bills game plan taking shape.
