"My wife and I are currently half-way through the Homestudy Program, and I thought I'd share some of our successes so far. Although all non-financial yet, successes to us nevertheless:

1. We have decided to take up meditation, something I would never have thought of doing - this is a big change in my mindset and I'm more than willing to take it up!

2. We have planned our holidays for next year. I cannot take 1 week in every 4 (yet), but 1 long weekend in every 4 is more than good enough for me. There is a lot of Victoria we have not visited and it's now time to do so. My boss is more than happy for me to do this rather than taking more than 2 weeks in one go.

3. I have received a pay rise already, just showing a more positive and pro-active mindset has pay dividends (so to speak) in my work place.

4. We have committed to give 10% to the Royal Children's Hospital in Melbourne. They have looked after our kids and we want to give something back.

When we received the Introductory Video, we were very sceptical, which was good. We did some research on other 'Wealth Education' courses, but Jamie's was the only one we ever really considered, as Jamie makes it simple to understand.

Thank you to all who contribute to the 21st Century forum and congratulations to those who have taken action, as having like-minded people around made our decision to do the Homestudy Program so much easier. Life has never looked so much brighter!"

The Stokes sisters learned to invest and helped their parents earn $30,000 in a single month. Sheena and Cherie Stokes are sisters who attended the 21st Century Academy seminar in 1999.

Within 2 years not only had they created investment income for themselves, they were able to help their Dad, a former truck driver, use some of his equity to generate instant cash flow and generate $30,000 in a single month enabling him to finally retire.

"I watched the free DVD that the website handed out. I found it very helpful and made $15,000 on a property in only 2 months.This is a truly inspirational DVD and I recommended it to all."

As a 21 year old, Brett bought his first investment property virtually no money down and made $40,000 out of thin air

After completing the Homestudy Program, Brett decided to use the - no money down property strategies. Using the Property Sourcing Service, he was able to acquire an off the plan property at $40,000 below market value for less than a $3,000 outlay."

"Hello again… well another good month. Thanks to 21st Century this month I have received $4,000 in premiums. I did get exercised and bought back, so I gained on paper $6,500 plus the $3,400 ($9,900) not bad for a 5 minute phone call hey!

This month I sold insurance for $15.50 for 0.40c each + $4,000 bought back at $14.55… gain if exercised $9,500.00 I may get sold, so for the month I should receive $13,500.00 so
that means $3,375 gross per week. What a good idea!

I am now on track to retire within the next 12 months. YEAH BABY this is the best cash generator around."

"I'm 13 years old and I think that it was a good experience that I will definitely be using. I've enjoyed every day and haven't been bored.
I can say it's better than school and more useful for my future. Thank you Jamie, team and guest speakers."

"Since doing the December 4 Day I have managed to create enough cashflow from our investments to take my family on a
long overdue 5 week trip to visit my son in Switzerland.

We will travel around Europe through our investments. It's great to have this new mindset that allows us to do that."

"I have been to many seminars and conferences on various topics over the years, including one very large financial one, however the 21st Century Seminar comes out clearly in the number one position.

None of the others had a system for paying such personal attention to the individual client's needs. None focused on personal growth (personal financial intelligence) in the way your system does.

The emphasis on changing 'mindset' is invaluable. Without it, for many of us the financial strategies are just so much financial
information that may never have been put to use.

Consequently, I have had a busy week. It is amazing how much can change for the better when there is a change in mindset in the right direction. Enough raving! I could go on all week! Look forward to seeing you all again."

I joined 21st Century Academy early in 2005 and since then I have become really open to the idea of abundance with the result that abundance has become my lifestyle.

I was living in a 47m2 apartment in the middle of Auckland city, I now live in a 360m2 Victorian mansion with 12 acres and within sight of the Tasman Sea. I wake every morning to see one of the most beautiful mountains in New Zealand - Mt Taranaki. I am in the process of furnishing this house with antiques which I source in the neighborhood- what fun!

Today I went up the coast and bought the first cow and calf for my highland cattle fold. All of this is possible because I believed in and followed 21st Century share strategies.

I am also a student of Rick Otton and intend do property deals in Taranaki following his brilliant ideas. What a lifestyle! I could never say enough good things about all the opportunities for a great life that have come to me since I joined 21st Century Academy.

22 year old attended Mark Rolton's Property Options  Seminar with 21st Century Academy last November, 2006 and decided to take advantage of joint venture opportunities offered to all students and brought a deal. Four months later that has transpired into a $1.1million personal profit to the 22 year old student  with zero capital outlay.

"Hi Jamie, how's this for my very first trade?
I decided after talking with my Broker that I wanted to buy XXX to Rent, i.e., apply the strategy. I put $10k into my account and arranged a loan of $10k. At the time, around mid March, XXX was trading at $4.83 so I was looking to buy 4,000, a total of $19,320.

I decided however to buy them wholesale by Selling Insurance, i.e., 4 contracts of the $4.75 and for this I got 23c, a total of $827
net of brokerage.

So if I'm exercised at the end of April I'll effectively buy them at $4.52, minus brokerage.

XXX is currently trading at $5.10 so with 3 weeks to go until expiry it's looking like I won't get exercised, so I'll just keep the $827 and do it again next month. I didn't even have to draw on my loan so I don't have to pay any interest."

A friend of mine gave me Jamie's book " What i Didnt Learn At School But Wish I Had" and I couldnt put it down. It gave me some hope that mabe one day I could release my worries form the daily grind. So I signed up for the Homestudy and started about 4 months ago.

So far I have just renovated our modest home which was valued at about $140,000. I spent $100,000 on renovations and now its worth about $300,000. Picked up some good capital there and now am using it to secure another property which I am purchasing off the plan saving on stamp duty and giving me a good debt and tax offsets. I am really excited with this new build because I know i will pick up another $60 to $70K capital.

 Even though I am at very early stages with the home study, its motivated me to be more agressive and smarter with my investments.

Attended the 21st Century Academy 4 Day Education For Life Seminar on the Gold Coast in March, 2006. Prior to the seminar Steffan had an Alcohol and Drug Addiction. Steffan is now excited and committed to creating a compelling future for himself, and he is not only working towards financial independence, he has been drug and alcohol free ever since and he looks and feels healthier than ever.

Thierry started investing with $10K and over the past four months has successfully traded his way to currently

"I just did my second trade I sold XXX at $14.00 and received $0.45c, I did 2 contracts (1 leveraged) and received $820.00 after fees, that's approximately 3.5%, same as last month.

EASY MONEY! That's one month's home loans repayments for nothing, I love it."

"Before attending this seminar, my image and focus on my future was blurry, many students are the same.

Now I have set outcomes and purpose, also now I can picture myself in the future achieving the things only dreamed of and the steps needed to take to gain financial freedom."
