subject: Should Baby Boomers Start A New Internet Business? [print this page] Baby boomers would be wise to look at starting a new Internet business.
The news of retiring and living the good life are starting to be overshadowed by visions of dume and gloom. According to the article in the USA Today, many retirees will have to continue working well past the age of 65.
If baby boomers started a new Internet business today, it could develop into the retirement income that they will be missing in the future.
On the Internet today, there is more valuable information being offered by successful entrepreneurs than ever before. These are marketers who started a new Internet business and developed it into a million dollar business. Now they are willing to share their knowledge and information with you.
To successfully start a new Internet business, you need a mentor with knowledge and expertise thats willing to share and support you, so that you can develop and grow.
Not all mentors are free, but the idea of paying for the service can save you a lot of wasted time and money by keeping you from buying all the worthless information that is suppose to tell you how to start a new Internet business. A lot of that information is pure fluff and no substance to it at all.
According to the news report the age of retirement could be changed to 69 for full benefits as opposed to the age of 66. If your health is good possibly you can keep working that long but if you do have health issues, it would be a tough road to go.
Starting a new Internet business could also be a way to leverage a few dollars of your savings for startup cost. Banks and other lending institutions are paying such a meager pittance on interest and savings accounts; it might be wise to put some of that money to work for you.
So if you started a new Internet business, what kind of business should it be?
There are companies that offer what is called Affiliate Marketing Sites, as a new Internet business opportunity. These come with a product, a website and a host of advertising material that could get any new person started immediately.
Network marketing is also a great way to start a new Internet business and it can be done offline as well. This involves sponsoring other people into your business who are willing to purchase products each and every month, plus they sponsor other people into the business who they might know as well. This model of doing business has been around for 40 years now.
Network marketing is a great new Internet business model for someone who is considered a people person. You must enjoy the interaction and fellowship of working with others for this business to be a fit for you.
Before you jump in and start a new Internet business, I would recommend that you take your time and research the many avenues that are available today.
