Do You Live Your Purpose? Is It Your Business?

[mpescetti]

Online businesses, blogs and affiliate products are everywhere.

It's hard to keep up with the inundation of websites sprouting up on the internet by the minute.

My question to the entrepreneurs on this forum is: Do you pursue your passion and purpose when building your online business or businesses?

OR

Do you focus on ways to simply make money... even if it isn't your passion and purpose?

If it's the latter, why?

However...

If you have empowered yourself to make a living from what you're passionate about, what has been your experience so far?

Cheers on your responses!

One thing that I've noticed from people like tim ferriss is that these people have never created any of value over $100 of worth. They rely on mass-marketing.

I'm in a business where each unit I sell is $2-3K. What that does is allow me to produce a quality product that gets better over time.

If you are passionate about lying about income and playing with numbers online, go for it...have fun! lol. Enjoy a life filled with "testing"!

That's not me though. I produce quality products that I enjoy making which improve over time.

My business/purpose (trading) does not create any product or service at all at this stage.

The idea is to extract large sums of money out of the financial markets and do good things with it. Later down the line I'd like to merge my 'day job' of IT/business consulting with investment of capital and resources into new businesses that meet my criteria for investment. I'd like to also dedicate financial and time/effort/expertise toward non profit activities that make the world a better place.

So this stage of my plan means massive accumulation of financial resources (without becoming corrupted along the way)..
