Selling stock short is still kind of a mysterious strategy to most people, who normally have simply purchased stocks or mutual funds in the past. Yes, this is a paradigm shift for most people, who don't understand how one could sell an investment that they do not actually own.Here is a brief explanation of how short selling works: you just sell a stock with the intent to buy it a some later point. You obviously hope to purchase it at a lower price, if the investment continues to go down over time.

Because this is by far one of the only types of businesses out there that is still generating millions of dollars and doing it via the internet.Now when I say develop new streams of revenue, I'm not talking about adding one or more network marketing type businesses to your belt so you just have more to sell that may or may not be at all related to the type of business you're already in. Not that there's anything wrong with network marketing models but I just wanted to make that distinction; I'm not talking about that kind of income stream.I'm talking about leveraging your expertise, knowledge, systems, services, information, etc. into products and services you can create basically one time and then sell over and over again via the...more
