There’s an old phrase that says, “Money won’t bring me happiness – but a little extra wouldn’t hurt.”
Yes, it’s true that having lots of money is no substitute for having one’s health and happiness but at the same time even the Dali Lama has bills to pay.
In this age of recession, with layoffs, cutbacks, rising prices and doom and gloom everywhere you look, it’s easy to see the strong influence money has in all our lives, and how our happiness and health can suffer by not having enough of it.
Lack of money can lead to stress as we run around frantically trying to keep our heads above water with no time to prepare healthy meals, exercise or simply take some time out to relax. As a result our health suffers, leading to a vicious cycle of higher medical bills, insurance premiums and deeper debt.
Having money, therefore, affords us a lot more freedom, freedom to take time out, to spend it with family, freedom to do the things that we enjoy and freedom from debt and depression.
This is why we created this section, dedicated to ensuring that people find information products, ideas, tips and methods to be able to make additional income. In addition, those looking for more advice on money, finance and business will find some great books on the subject in our money and finance books section.

Many, if not all, of the world’s largest corporations have begun to outsource key processes and operations, from manufacturing to customer service, in order to keep costs low and remain competitive. This, in turn, has helped turn emerging countries such as India and China into major economic powers, boosting global trade. Corporations have embraced outsourcing because it offers considerable financial and logistical advantages compared with doing everything in-house. It boosts productivity, reduces costs and allows for far greater flexibility and efficiency making it one of the two most significant commercial developments since the assembly line.
