Are you surfing or serving?

The problem with the real world is that it is not clickable.

In cyberspace, you can always click something and be instantly transported to a different site.

No can do in Real Mundo.

You're pretty much stuck with whatever you got. This brings us to the main problem of millions of people on Earth, who have to drag themselves out of bed every morning and drive/commute to the office.

They are working in the real economy, yet the REAL money is being made in the cyber-economy. (For all the juicy details, you can read The Sovereign Individual, by James Davidson and Lord Rees-Mogg.)

In the cyber-economy, you are Superman. Or Wonder Woman. Nothing can stop you. There are no limits. This is why companies like Yahoo!, Google, Netscape, etc. produced so many millionaires.

There are no limits to space, speed, or spice (spice being the infinite variety of offerings, solutions, products, information, etc. produced by a company, or co-produced by a company and its customers).

Only your imagination -- or more precisely, your untrained imagination -- stands in the way of how much value you can create -- and therefore, how much money you earn.

The major reason why most people have not even begun to use their imagination in creating or finding ways to make money in cyberspace, is because they use the Internet to "surf" when the capitalist elite use the Internet to "serve" millions of people.

With billions of people from China and India joining the global game of capitalism via the Web, the stakes are getting even higher.

There has never been a better time to learn about business because today more than ever, business knowledge enables a person to create and constantly refine a business model on the Internet in order to amass a compoundedly increasing fortune via cyber cashflows.
