Do you want more money right now? Do you have the mind-pattern to attract it? This is the key that only the wealthy know! They always have plenty because their mind-patterns only know wealth. There is not a doubt in their minds of who they are, what they have, and what they will have.

Do you live with a mind-pattern of scarcity and lack? What did your parents tell you when you were a child? Things like, “Money doesn’t grow on trees, we cannot afford it, it is too expensive”? These kinds of words imprint you with scarcity and lack.

Do you have abandonment issues? While this may seem entirely unrelated, be aware that “money” can abandon you as easily as people. Working through any abandonment issues with people strengthens the mind-pattern that holds onto money and all that money buys.

People can abandon you emotionally as well as physically. If you felt emotionally abandoned by either parent, there is a good chance that your financial wealth abandons you also, leaving you feeling stranded in life.

Domain Names. Yes. I just scored another one. And another domain name… GoDaddy.com silently took another $9.24 from me again for another domain name. Oh. What about this domain name? What! I can’t believe that no one has thought of that domain yet!! You just have to buy it.

This happens to me several times a week. I think I may be addicted to domain names. Please help me. With the all of the different ways to make money online, being a ‘Domainer‘ can be one of the more lucrative.

CNN.com: “Forget condos and strip malls. Domain names, the real estate of the Web, have been delivering far greater returns.”

REDHERRING: “Parked domains may become a billion-dollar industry, both for paid search operators like Google and Yahoo as well as a new breed of Internet real estate developers.”

WSJ.com: “Internet domain names are a hot commodity again. But unlike the 1990s, when speculators bought up Web addresses in hopes of reselling them later for a big payday, many of today’s purchases are aimed at cashing in on the boom in online advertising.”

First of all, let me state that my Mom bought me the Pong game when I was 5 years old. Went through the Atari 2600 phase, Original Nintendo, Sega Genesis, and Nintendo 64. And that was the last video game system I bought. And Im constantly amazed at how much these new game systems go for on the eBay Market.

I loved video games, they are fun… but are they productive? No. I decided that I didnt do enough when I had all those video games. But as a kid, they sure were fun. So, Im pondering a new video game system. And are they worth the crazy amount of money people are buying on ebay. Does a person who is conscious of money go out of the way to get a Playstation 3 for $1675? Why spend that much now? Why not wait a little bit for the inexpensive Wii, or wait a couple of more weeks when the second batch comes rolling out for a 1/3rd the price.
