What Would It Feel Like To Be Rich
Written by Alex Marlin on January 14, 2008 – 4:13 am -Today, I am feeling great and really wanted to write something inspiring that I know many people fail to think about and that is what it would feel like to be rich, yes, I mean wealthy, having enough money to do and live how you please. Our mind is powerful and we have to learn how to dream big, and I mean dreaming bigger dreams, and live a life that we are grateful and thankful for. You have to learn how to be thankful for whatever you have in your life, and you should count your blessings each and every day.
I must admit that I am not rich, so don’t go thinking that this dude is wealthy beyond his wildest dreams and lives the glorious life. I am far from rich, and I am dreaming the dream today and will be living the rich life for this moment that I will be typing this post. As I type my face glows and I am actually feeling the rich vibes running through my body.
This will be a story type, filled with fiction and deep imagination of something that you too should desire. I can’t say that I won the lottery, because I don’t play so I won’t ever win the lottery. So my story will focus on building wealth online with my websites that I have been building and especially this one. So close your eyes and dream along with me.
Little Skinny Guy From A Small Island In The Caribbean, Makes $70,000 Monthly Online.
A couple years back, I got this dream about building websites for fun online. I didn’t have a clue as to how I would get this done. I slowly started reading many articles online and bought a couple books about building websites online. Slowly but surely I understood what it took to build a website online. Today I can build a site and announce it to the world and have people coming to my site that same day from all over the globe.
I was having fun doing this, my skills were improving and I slowly started to see more and more people coming to my sites, many of them loved my writing style, lots didn’t, but that didn’t stop me, I continued to write more of what I believed my writers would like and what I believed would help them.
I got so good at this, that this site, the one your reading this article on now, started to get over 2 million visitors per month. Many investors wanted a piece of the pie, they were offering me large sums of money to place ads on my site. I refused, and then one day I got this offer that I just couldn’t refuse. They offered me exclusive rights to my site and offered to pay me $70,000 (U.S. Dollars monthly) to place ads on my site.
My dream came through, I knew then that all my hard work had payed off. I was finally able to realize my dream of visiting Australia, Japan and China for three weeks long. I then told my wife about the offer and told the kids to start planning that dream trip I always spoke of. We were all happy and looking forward to this day, because I have always been saying that pretty soon you all will see that big check come in the mail. It didn’t come in the mail this time, I had to go and get this one.
The big day came, and we were flown over to San Francisco on a private yet from St. Maarten, to sign off on this deal. I got a check for $70,000 dollars written out in my name. I looked across the room and saw the smile on my wifes face and at that moment all I taught was: “Believe in yourself and dream the big life and work towards your dream.”
I was treated like royalty for the couple of days we spent in San Francisco, must say, lovely city, I will have to visit again, but for now it’s time for me to head on home, to let my “BOSS’ know that I won’t be returning to work. From that day on I would be publishing and building better sites. Someone is going to buy out my next site. Yes, I do have a dream to build a top site, can’t give too much information, because someone will steal my idea, that Google will buy for 10 Million Dollars.
I left my kids finish off the school term for that year, and as we began packing, I told them we will be going on a true vacation for three weeks long. We will stay for one week on each Island and stay in a five star Hotel. By that time I had $565,000 Dollars in my bank account. I was still living where I live now.
How will I spend my money and enjoy my new life?
The first thing I promised myself is to take a trip to a far away land, yes, a dream trip, and I finally had the money to travel to any Island or country I choose. Traveling will become my past time. Each and every Island in the Caribbean will be visited.
For now, I have plans to build a beautiful home with a pool on a nice lot of land on St. Maarten, overlooking the ocean. I have already started drafting the design of this masterpiece. This home will be awesome, five bedrooms, my own little office space, huge walk in closet. three car ports, yes I do have plans to buy my F150 pick-up truck, a car for my wife and a nice little convertible Mercedes Benz CLK, this would be our family week-end car.
My Big Trip
We were all packed, drove to the airport, checked in and had a drink, then I told my family to all remember to be thankful, and now it’s time for us to have some fun and enjoyment. We are going all out on this trip, this is the moment we have been waiting for. As we were boarding the flight, I told them that we have first class tickets all the way.
It was a really long and exhausting trip, we flew from St. Maarten to Miami, then onto San Francisco, there we spent three days doing some shoppings, bought some nice clothing. We then departed for Melbourne Australia. The flight was long, but the excitement we had of making the trip made it worth every cent.
We arrived in Melbourne, all tired and drowsy from all that traveling, flying first class made it easy to sleep and enjoy the trip, we took a cab and drove down to the Grand Hyatt Melbourne. Man, talk about driving, everything seemed miles away. We got there and stayed in a 5 star hotel, this is sheik life, everything was just awesome and so much to do and see.
We were having a ball shopping and visiting many of their museums and outback spots. All of this was what I was dreaming of for years and to see this materialize in front of my eyes was just amazing.
The best visit was when we flew down to Sydney, the view was breath taking and the visit to the Sydney Opera House was one I would never forget. It was all so unbelievable, like a miracle come true, that I wished the trip would never end. We took so many pictures that we could fill a couple walls in our new home that was being built. That was my surprise to the family. They didn’t have a clue that our new home was being built while we are on vacation.
That week went by fast and it was time to move onto our second destination, and that was Japan…

Hey Alex,
Feeling this post the second part is also nice. I guess that the dream most of us have to just enjoy the luxury life and also have a comfortable place for our family.
Your right its good to dream. My husband is like that and i am the one most of the time, like hmm i wanna see it first. But i guess a little bit of a dreamy feeling would hurt anyone would it. It can also be a good motivation to go for your dreams.
Als you i also would like to try the online business, but more like for presentation not articles but i guess i need to believe a bit more to actually start doing it. hahahha.
Have a good day.
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I think there is something with the posting methode. I wrote a whole book
and when i posted it it showed me a blank page.
So here i go again a shorted version :-(.
Was just saying that this post and the second post are very nice post. and that i doesn’t hurt to dream a little bit. And that i think i need to get a little bit of that attitude. My husband is like that and i guess also thinking a bit like that wouldn’t hurt.
But i guess everyone would love to enjoy that luxury lifetime.

Hi Charissa,
I do believe I have a problem with my posting script, I will need to look into this.
Thanks for the comment, yes, and to dream is to be alive. If you’re not dreaming your missing out on life, and the second part is to commit and take action.
And if you want to try this online business thingy, then you have to do a little research and just start…
Everyday you put it off, shows you are doubting yourself… So do yourself a favor and decide to do something now and just start, it’s not important what it looks like, just start now and adjust as you go.
