Here is your challenge: I will give you a great car, including a tank of fuel, the clothes on your body and your most important personal things – in a bag. Wait, I will also throw in $ 100 US dollars and give you an instruction.

Create a million-dollar business in 3 months with the resources I have just mentioned? Location: Your choice. You have to start from scratch. For example, make friends, find a job, find a place to stay, and the big one: “Create a million-dollar business or company?” You cannot tap into your savings, property, bank account, or any other personal or business resources.

The big question to you is: “What will you do, where will you start, which location will you choose?”

What will be your strategy if you only have $ 100 in your pocket?

Four billionaires (in the US) have been tested with the challenge I have given to you. After watching these documentaries on television, I sat down and made some notes, and I am now ready to share them with you. It will save you time researching – I have done the research for you.

Undercover Billionaire (2020 and 2021), the programs recently created, had some extraordinary revelations and insight. The thinking and strategical processes of wealthy people – under pressure – are revealed. They chose to place themselves under a vast amount of stress and strain. They left their comfort zones of wealth for that place where they had to be innovative, creative, tenacious, resilient, and tough. The revelations during the processes of making plans and executing them are invaluable. It reveals these people’s thinking – it reveals their progress, their past, and their motivation.

I have listed those essential things; I have identified them for you. Here they are in a nutshell:

1. You need people to succeed.

Without people, ones who have tons of goodwill, you will go nowhere. That is probably the very first and the most important thing that jumps out in these programs. You need people with good intentions. People that love to help other people. You need kind people.

2. You need to identify people who have resources; you have to make friends with them.

You will need friends to help you make money. If you want to set up a million-dollar business in 90 days, you will have to network and establish strong relationships with resourceful people. You have to think win-win. In fact, resourceful people have to be first, all the time, until they trust you.

3. You need to establish trust with powerful and wealthy people.

 

Trust is the key to your breakthrough and success. You will have to establish a bond of trust to move forward in business. You have to display character and lots of it. Successful people want to feel safe. They want to make decisions and sleep well at night. They trust their business partners.

4.  Initially, property is the quickest and probably the best way to create some venture capital.

OBSERVATION: Three of the four undercover candidates immediately said: “Property, I have to flip a house to make a quick profit. I need venture capital.” Property is the cornerstone of wealth. Period. They then went on and did everything in their power to flip a house. Then, they had the venture capital to start moving towards creating a million-dollar business in 90 days. Property will open doors for you!  

5. You have to be confident. You only have one opportunity to impress and make friends with wealthy people.

How you dress, how you talk, how you present your plan will make or break you. You obtain a breakthrough; you have to be smart, very smart. You have to be fully transparent. Explain what is in it for the business person and what you will get out of it. You have to be willing to take less. The opportunity to make a friend and win the favour of the business person is paramount. As I have mentioned, without people and acceptance, you’re going nowhere financially.

6. You can’t afford to make one mistake.

If you spook a new friend, it is all over. It requires character, accuracy, and prudence. Wealthy people will invest in you and your business plans and ideas if you are consistent. You have to be sharp.

7. You have to be humble.

“I don’t want anything for free; I will work for it!” is the exact words of one of the undercover billionaires when he or she pitches a business plan to a wealthy business owner in their area. An attitude will get you nowhere.

8. You have to do your homework. Study and research the area, prepare yourself.

You have to spend time researching and talking to experienced people from the area you have chosen to work in. Wealthy business people are simply brilliant. They know what they are doing. Your plans have to be good, very good before they buy in.

9. You will have to use your imagination and your words to create a good business offer.

This is very challenging. Though the undercover billionaires in the programs are familiar with money and power, they had to step down. They were stripped from their capacity as business people. Remember, they only had $ 100 in their pockets at the start. How you pitch your plan and the words you use are critical. Practising in advance is probably a great idea!

10. You have to manage your money, and others money, very frugally.

To create a good start – having money available to do things – are crucial. Be very frugal with the money you have. Consider sleeping in your car, eat cheap healthy meals and maintain a very tight budget. And, be even more economical when you manage other people’s money. They will be watching you very closely.

Observations: Undercover Billionaire

I also want to include some observations of my own. I will use my personal filter – A Christian Perspective. However, I must mention that these laws and strategies will work for any person with high morals, high values and respected beliefs. Also, my focus is on good honest people in this article. I am not including any devious activity and criminal behaviour. In fact, that type of behaviour always ends up in a disaster and complete destruction. Who wants to be part of that? Nobody, right? 

I want to make two essential statements – you probably know them. However, they are the cornerstone of the blessed life.

Give, and it will be given unto you.

38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal, it shall be measured to you again. Luke 6:38

The business people in the programs understood this principle. They were willing to give to the undercover billionaires. Though they did not know anything about them, they trusted their gut feeling. They displayed goodwill! They know, if they give, goodwill come unto them. It is a fundamental law – it works all the time.

 

Make friends for yourself with money and resources.

I have spent years meditating on this scripture to understand it. While watching the documentary, these verses popped out. I just could not ignore it. I share it with you. The Parable of the Unrighteous Steward:

8And the Lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

9And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations.

Luke 16: 8 & 9 KJV

In the context of the Undercover Billionaire programs, this parable or story is the most significant for me. Though the undercover business people did not lose any of their wealth, they were placed in a situation where they had no ‘wealth.’ The scenario could be “to lose everything and start from scratch.” It is from this premise or design that I would like to comment.

Imagine you lose everything – your wealth and your income – what would you do? If you earned a salary, you would most probably think about finding a similar job. If you had a business, you would probably think to start a similar business. Right?  Or maybe you could be forced to do something completely different. We, as humans, are very innovative and creative to solve problems. Adversity could lead to new opportunities, irrespective of how painful that may be.

What could really kick-start your new job or business are the people you know. They are key! If you have great work relationships with employers and business owners, you could be in a new job in no time. From a business perspective, your business friends could help you get on your feet in a flash. It is their goodwill; it is their belief that good will come unto them when they give, that will change your dire situation. They understand the laws that govern giving and receiving.

Making friends – thinking win-win – will open doors for you in a difficult time or in a season of adversity. People remember; they remember your goodwill. They refer to the past. They want to return the favour. They will help you out. Isn’t that amazing?

Make friends with unrighteous money. Be good with money! Give! Sow into someone else’s life and reap the rewards! It is a law that works universally.
