This is a unique, out-of-schedule entry that addresses three distinct and significant subjects.
Make sure to read all the way to the end to grasp everything.
Interviews with Millionaires
The first topic: we require more millionaire interviews (and retirement interviews, for that matter). We currently have 450 completed interviews, and I aim to reach 500 shortly.
If everyone who has asked for a millionaire interview questionnaire would take the time to fill it out, we would already be at approximately 525 interviews, but that’s another matter! lol
In any case, I would greatly appreciate it if any millionaires reading this who have yet to complete an interview could do so. Just email me if you’re interested, and I’ll provide you with the instructions and questions immediately.
As a token of my appreciation for participating in a millionaire interview, we can move on to the second point of this post…
Become a Guide
Anyone can step into the role of a mentor in the Millionaire Money Mentors (MMM) forums (and gain free access to the forums) by completing the following steps:
- Complete a millionaire interview on ESI Money.
- Agree to introduce themselves in the forums.
- Accept minimum posting criteria (since we prefer active mentors rather than those who just linger). Here’s the wording I currently share with them:
You need to contribute to the forums at least once a week. This can be a comment on another person’s post or creating your own. Each post should consist of at least 200 words (for reference on how lengthy it can be). I will allow some flexibility as long as you post around 800 words per month (so it could be 200 one week, 100 another, 300 next, etc.). However, it simply cannot be four “good comment” posts, as that adds no value to anyone.
An interviewee qualifies to be a mentor if the above conditions are agreeable to them once the interview is published (NOT when it is submitted). This is why I advise people to complete their interviews as soon as possible. Even if they don’t wish to become mentors right now, they may in the future, and having an interview completed and published ahead of time offers quick access for those interested in mentoring. This is assuming, of course, that the free offer remains available. I may revoke it at any time (for new mentors, not for existing ones). Not that I’m considering that, but it is a possibility.
If someone is currently a member of MMM and wants to become a mentor, the same guidelines apply. The only variance is what occurs with their membership fee.
There are no refunds for memberships, but we simply have them disable auto-renew when their interview is posted (if they choose to become mentors), so they are not charged when their membership is due.
Lastly, there’s no obligation to take on the role of a mentor after completing a millionaire interview. Many complete one merely to share their journey and assist others, but do not wish to commit to being a mentor (this is true for both current members in the forums and those who are not). There’s no pressure in either direction, and the choice is entirely up to the individual.
As of now, the offer remains available, so if your interview is published today, and you do not want to become a mentor at this moment, but decide to change your mind in three years, you can do so according to the mentor requirements that will be in place then. (Again, assuming I still provide it.)
Kindle Book Giveaway
Finally, I have a giveaway for everyone today. It’s a Kindle edition of “Passive Income, Aggressive Retirement” by forum member Rachel Richards. The rules for the giveaway are as follows:
- This is a Kindle edition of the book. That’s the only format that is available.
- The winners will be selected on a first-come, first-served basis.
- To try and win a copy, send me an email with the subject line “PIAR Giveaway.” I will then email winners a free code to access the book.
- If you don’t hear from me, it means we have run out of copies. I have a substantial number, but the response for some of these giveaways can be quite overwhelming.
