IncomeExperts.com = Life without Limits

Michael Hamburger of IncomeExperts.com - Lifestyle

It has been quite a while since I last checked in. I've been out of pocket to say the least. Since mid March, Leslie & I have been traveling for 9 1/2 weeks thus far. Actually, we are still not "at home", as we are spending some time in San Diego escaping the blazing heat in Arizona!!! The beauty of all of this is that with the portability of our business, we never miss a beat whether we are home or on a working holiday! We plan on spending some more time here in San Diego on the beach. We are also gearing up for a 2 week trip to Oahu, Hawaii in just under 2 weeks. This is a dream come true. Prior to getting our business off the ground, if I wanted to take time away from my job, I would have gotten 2 weeks vacation paid & nothing more!

Don't misinterpret what I am sharing here... I work. I work 2.5 - 4 hours per day Monday - Thursday and 2 hours on Friday! By work, I place a few ads, have people request information from me & then call them back & interview them. Those that demonstrate to me they are serious about creating a minimum of $10,000 profit every month, I provide information to. From there, I leave it up to them to see if they see a fit for themselves. That's it. It's that simple.


Our business is portable baby. How portable is your job or business? For many people, it is not! In case you did not know, it is YOUR choice!

It is over 100° at our home right now! We decided to pack up the family & head to the beach for a week (or two). After arriving in San Diego, we have had a complete blast. The company we work with will be celebrating their 8th anniversary this Friday, July 4, 2008. I find it very fitting that this company was founded on the USA's Independence Day!


Check out the FACTS:

March & April '08 -> We spent just over 3 weeks traveling throughout Italy & earned over $25,000 PROFIT! We worked a whopping 5 hours during the entire trip.

May '08 -> We spent the entire month living in a penthouse on the beach in South Florida & earned over $1,000 per day! We never worked more than 3 days per week & 2.5 hours on any given day! Imagine living on the beach in a resort atmosphere, playing tennis everyday & making more in the month than most people earn in a year. Sign me up all over again!

June '08 -> We have spent a couple of weeks in San Diego & have had back-to-back-to-back 5 figure weeks! Plus we just received a residual check over $10,000 besides our regular earnings! The residual checks roll in 3 times per year! Our business is expanding globally. We have new business partners from: United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Iraq, Cayman Islands, Spain, Canada & the United States of America.

This is a lifestyle business. I feel like we are getting paid to travel & play.
This year, Leslie & I have been to Florida twice (once for a month & the other for a long weekend), Italy for 3 1/2 weeks, San Diego for several weeks, the list continues. We leave for a 2 week trip to Hawaii next Tuesday.

What exactly are you looking for? Time, Money, Freedom?
How serious are you?
What is YOUR PLAN?

I have a proven plan...

T Minus 9 Hours & Counting...

Hello, hello...

Do you like helping other people? I do. I think it is sexy. The momentum our team is experiencing is one of the coolest things to watch. Seeing my team members on the companies leader board is so gratifying. Watching people transform their lives & seeing the impact it is having on their families is indescribable.

We have people on our team that are less than a year in the business that have earned more this month even this week than most people make in an entire year. Many of the people on our team I am referring to were broke when they found this business & answered our ad. Instead of settling for the results they were achieving they created a new beginning. Their results are not uncommon here. Do you really think they are concerned with the price of gas right now? I seriously doubt it. They were not waiting for someday when everything was perfect. Someday rarely comes. You gotta make your someday today.

There are so many people getting impacted by the World & US economy right now. I am empowered knowing that our team is creating gigantic financial gains in spite of the economy, the weak American dollar & the gas prices going through the roof. I have really noticed that these economic factors are completely effecting the home business arena in a tremendous manner. I have noticed countless real estate industry professionals answering my ads & moving forward in a huge way. People that were accustomed to making big chunks of income & commissions from real estate & mortgages are barely getting by these days. It is not just people in real estate, like the Realtors, loan officers, mortgage brokers, real estate appraisors & builders, it is almost at epidemic proportion across the Nation & around the world... the effect the economy is having has people making bolder & bigger decisions in their lives that impact the life they live today & tomorrow. People that were living "high on the hog" are now scrapping by paycheck to paycheck. Unless you make some changes, your life is not going to look any different for months.

We have a community of people that are achieving "unrealistic" results in the "real world". I almost thought this was too good to be true. Almost. This is too good to be true but it is true.

You can have anything you want out of your life... you just have to go for it. You have to get started to make the changes. BE, DO, HAVE. No one else can do this for you. If you want to start experiencing different results, understand that this is in direct proportion to the actions & inactions you take in life.

Before I got started w/ my business, I came out of the telecom industry at a time when the entire industry had a big black eye from the corporate mess companies like WorldCom, Qwest & Adelphia left by their scandals. Back then going out of town on a business trip meant packing suits, ties, etc. & jumping on a plane & flying to a city. Many times these trips were to some pretty boring places meeting with even more boring people that also hated their jobs. To make matters more fun, the people that traveled with us typically hated their jobs, didn't know if they were going to get laid off & were just trying to keep their jobs... Yuck!

My personal trips were better. Mainly we'd sneak away on a long 4 day holiday weekend. We really lived for the weekend. We packed & crammed as much fun into the weekend we could handle. When we went on paid vacation days, many times we never even left our town. What was the point? There were always the snowboarding trips... they were a blast! 1 week a year maybe 2 & some long weekends. Going to the beach mostly meant driving to Florida only to sleep one of our parent's couch or floor & every once in a great while we'd rent a villa or the like.

No matter what I did, I felt constrained by my own success & inability to live life on my terms. I knew I was not going to be able to see all the fun places planet Earth has to offer. Even with a good corporate job, I was really deficient in the LIFESTYLE department.

So since we started making BOLDER choices for our life, we started achieving much more fun. I love to travel. Have you seen the small sampling of our pictures. I love it. There is just so much of the world to see & enjoy!

Since we started our business, we have been on 30 or 40+ trips! I know we just got back from a 3 week trip to tour Italy but... We are heading to South Florida for the entire month of May! We did this in June 2006 & had a complete blast. Yes. I will post some pictures. The place we are staying in is nice. Top floor. Southeast corner penthouse on the Atlantic ocean looking out over the bright blue & green ocean below. Leslie tells me that we will freak when we look out & see a ton of sharks swimming by. I'll be sure to snap some photos of sunrise for you guys that are still bundled up to warm you up a spell.

We will be playing a ton of tennis in Florida. We always do but in FL we go nuts & play 4, 5 6 times per week. Many of the people we will be playing with will be twice our age since all the people our age are most likely at work @ 9:00 AM. It's Florida... Who knew?

Here is something I think is really crazy... All I have to do is forward my home office line to my Vonage line & it is business as usual. My philosophy is this, "Nobody says you have to be at your home to work from home." Now we have a big checkbox in the LIFESTYLE department! When I first started my business I used to think it was crazy that I was working from somewhere else in our city. Then we took this business all over the world. Italy a few weeks ago was life changing.

Leslie, Jayden & I are heading out in T Minus 9 hours & counting...

I want you to pay attention to this. OK? I host a call several times per month on Friday mornings. It is a call dedicated to the RESULTS people are experiencing around the world with the business! It is one of the most empowering 30 minutes on the planet. A company that is dedicated to creating whatever results someone desires in their life, both financially & personally. Anyway, a few weeks ago, I hosted the call in Florence, Italy one Friday while the following Friday I was hosting the call from a corner suite in Venice, Italy watching gondolas float by on the Grand Canal & the next Friday I was in Rome, Italy hosting a call from our conference & learning from some of the greatest minds on the planet. (Les Brown, speaker & TV host & Shawn Achor, Harvard University - to share a couple) After returning to Scottsdale,Arizona from Italy, I hosted this call from my pool deck overlooking the city below us & the amazing mountains we live on. Traveling pops up all over my 101 list from Beyond Freedom. Accomplishing these goals is a tremendous feeling.

Maybe travel is not your thing... that's cool. What is? Whatever it is... what are you waiting for?

I can be reached here on this site by clicking on the "Grand Central" button in the upper left hand corner of the site. Input your phone number (US & Canada only for now) & clicking call. Your phone will ring & I will be there on the other end. Odds are you will get my voice mail. That's because I'm living on the beach in Florida. Leave a message with the best time to call you & I will make sure I call you back promptly.

I gotta go pack a few more Tommy Bahamas shirts...

Create a great day - YOU DESERVE IT!

I changed my life 5 years ago today...





Holy smoke... where exactly did the time go? Five years ago today, I made the decision to radically change my life. Let me digress momentarily.

I was like many people, I was working a job & doing pretty good. Life was happening all around me. The telecommunications industry was taking a beating (similar to what is happening in the real estate world now) & I was due a hefty promotion. Both my Vice President & my sales manager got fired to "flatten" out the organization. This means the company was looking to lessen their overhead in order to make greater profits.

Anyway, I get called into my bosses office & he tells me that my promotion was approved. I was given a 33% increase in my responsibility & oh by the way, my compensation was being reduced by 33%. So with my new title & added responsibilities, I was supposed to be happy that I still had my job. Excuse me, how is that a promotion?

In hind site, it is the best thing that ever happened in my career up to that point. It caused me to start thinking outside the traditional box. I was forced to make "big boy" decisions if I wanted big boy results.

I went on a 2 week vacation to clear my head & figure it out. Before I left, I got my resume in front of the players in the field & let them know that I was ready for a change. Leslie & I went to Park City, UT for a 10 day snowboarding trip with her brother & his wife. We were skimping in every area we could. I bought all of our snowboard gear used off eBay (not real smart given the fact that we were freezing the entire trip).

While we were on the trip, I watched Leslie's brother earn over $15,000 in the 1st 4 days of our trip, while we were on vacation. Hello, I am a pretty smart guy... I did start asking him questions. After I heard the business plan, I was in. I made the choice to get started.

I took action on Monday, March 3, 2003. This was the smartest financial decision I have ever made. Within the month, both Leslie & I walked away from our jobs. We were not even married yet. On Monday, March 24, 2003 (day 21) Leslie resigned from her job with Lucas Group. On Monday, March 31, 2003, I resigned from my job with Cincinnati Bell's Broadwing Communications.

Since those pivotal life moments, life has changed from us in a big big way. Within 6 months, we had moved from our hometown of Atlanta, GA to a beach front lifestyle in Santa Monica, CA. After spending a year living on the beach as wealthy beach bums, we decided to start our own family & did not want to raise our child in Los Angeles, CA. We moved to Scottsdale, AZ in September 2004.

We have been afforded the opportunity to travel & see the world. Our 1st trip was extra special, as we were married on a private island in Fiji. We have been all over te planet. Greece, South Africa, Australia, Fiji, Hawaii, Whistler, Mexico, Puerto Rico & several other places.

When our daughter arrived in Feb '07, our lives took on a whole new meaning. We have not missed a single second of our little girl's life. When she start rolling over, I was there. When she started crawling, I was there. When she started talking, I was there. When she recently started walking, I was there. I share this because if I had not made the choices I made in early '03 & then took action, I would have heard all about this from Leslie or some daycare provider over the phone.

Our daughter has more stamps in her passport @ 13 months old then I did @ 30 years old. When I first started our business, I did not want to fly coach anymore... Our daughter has experienced several private chartered flights & first class air travel around the planet.

Here I am typing 5 years later & I am astonished at some of the experiences we have enjoyed. We have been coached by some of the greatest minds on the planet: Bob Proctor of The Secret, Bill Phillips the creator of Body For Life, NY Times best-selling author Andy Andrews, Harvard professor Shawn Achor, Presidential adviser Doug Wead, "Law of Attraction" author Michael Losier, TV personalities Larry Wingett (Big Spender) & Phil Keoghan (The Amazing Race) & countless others.

In a relatively short amount of time, Leslie & I have improved our lives forever. 5 years ago, we lived in an apartment & today we live in an amazing home. We are eternally grateful for all the adversity that propelled us in the direction we are living today.

I am a firm believer that anyone can create massive results in their lives, IF they have the desire to do so.

5 years into this, we have assisted countless people create abundance & prosperity. Many of our team members never have to work again. They continue to do so for sport & fun.

How has your life changed in the past 5 years? Are you living the life you dreamed of? Are you financially free? Are you happy going to work or your business? Are you spending the time you deserve with those in your life that matter most?

Are you ready for a change? Are you looking for a mentor & leader that will coach you all along the way?

If so, let's get started discussing how we can together create a life without limits for you....

DREAM BIG!!!
