If you are thinking about increasing your income, one of the things we usually do is having our own business and/or any other marketing strategies, for as long as we can make money out from it.  While other people are just curious about joining the real estate industry, for some, they feel sick and tired of having the same job without increasing their income. Why's that? Maybe because you are not serious on the things that you do or maybe you just don't know the right approach for a particular thing. Guilty? We all do, actually!

Because when you do, you are basically forced to have another debt just to pay your previous debt – and it's a cycle. Unless you change your routine, you will definitely have a financial crisis.
