Welcome

Plus5Living is a blog created to help educate people how not to be totally dependant on their 9 to 5.

What is a Plus 5?

A plus 5 is an activity you do after or around your 9-5 job that creates an income stream while you are doing other things including sleeping.You can put 5 mins perday, 5 hours per week, 5 days per month or any amount of time you see fit but it has to be positive, fun, exciting and generate cash flow.I am not the most eleoquent writer but I tell it like it is...you are not your job.

Too many people, myself included at one time, measure their self worth and idenity by their job or career, this should not be so.A job is something you do not who you are! This is why layoffs, cutbacks, downsizeings, and firings can be so devistating to some people.When people first meet someone a question that is almost always asked is"what do you do?' Then we puff up our chest and proudly say I'm a so and so...blah, blah, blah or we cower down and say meekly"I'm a umm, umm... you get the picture.

I'm not saying there is anything wrong with enjoying your job, as a matter of fact you should enjoy what you do so much that you don't even consider it work butdon't let it steal who you really are from you.I am going to try to show you ways and provide opportunities to be able to do some things you really want to do, be able to go where and when you want to go and not have to have alot of money in the bank right now to do it.

This is not a get rich quick program or a get out of debt plan, it's a freedom plan that will only work if you put some effort into it.

Welcome to Plus 5 Living.
