Women’s wealth creation seminar launches featuring celebrity speakers Ita Buttrose and Jamie McIntyre
Renowned wealth educator Jamie McIntyre and his company 21st Century Education Group have launched 21st Century Women’s Academy, a seminar series tailored to meet the needs of women who are looking to excel in life and achieve financial independence.
Jamie McIntyre, founder and CEO of 21st Century Education Group said he was inspired to create the seminar after seeing the success of women who have empowered themselves through 21st Century Academy. Jamie recognised women’s needs differ to men’s and many women were just looking for that extra little bit of help in taking control of their financial future.
“Through our work with 21st Century Education we are seeing more and more women in Australia coming to us for help in running their own business and collaborating with their partners, whilst balancing their family and personal lives,” said Jamie.
“We have brought together an extraordinary group of male and female speakers who are passionate about the wellbeing of women in the 21st Century. These speakers have been handpicked by the 21st Century team to inspire women to an entire new level in their lives,” Jamie concluded.
Celebrity speakers such as Ita Buttrose and specialists in business, finance, real estate, health and wellbeing, will share their experiences and secrets to success.
Australian businesswoman and publisher, Ita Buttrose believes this initiative could not have come at a better time: “We have a lot of work to do to empower Australian women to believe anything is possible and that they can fulfil their dreams. My experience is a prime example of how, through determination and perseverance, women can overcome challenges, succeed in business and balance their personal and professional lives.”
“I’m a firm believer that people, especially women, need to learn from their experiences and that the best results in business come from women and men working in partnership,” said Ita.
The 21st Century Women’s Academy seminar will take place on 19 – 21 April, at the Gold Coast Marriott. It will then roll out across Australia and overseas visiting the Sydney, Perth, Auckland and Los Angeles.
A percentage of the overall profits of the Women’s Academy Globally will be donated to the 21st Century Academy Charity Foundation, a non profit organisation, supporting the Empower U Foundation to rebuild schools in impoverished countries.
Members of the 21st Century Women’s Academy can also apply to be part of the team which will travel to the 3rd world countries and help build the schools.
The once was a man who lived by the side of the road and sold hot dogs. In fact, he sold very good hot dogs.
He put up highway signs telling people how good his hot dogs tasted. He stood by the side of the road and called out, “Buy a hot dog, mister?”
And people bought his hot dogs. They bought so many hot dogs, the man increased his meat and bun orders.
He bought a bigger stove so he could meet his customers’ demands. And finally, he bought his son home from college to help out in the family business.
But something happened. His son said, “Father, do you not watch television, or read the newspapers? Do you not know we are heading for recession? The European situation is unstable, and the domestic economy is getting worse.”
And the father though, “My son is a smart boy. He has been to college. He ought to know what he is talking about.”
So the man cut down his meat and bun orders, took down his highway signs, and no longer stood by the side of the road to sell his hot dogs.
His sales fell fast overnight. “You’re right son,” said the father, “We certainly are in a serious recession.”
What I learn’t from this story is you should not always listen to your friends and family if you are trying something different. Just because you think somone is well educated and smart doesn’t mean they know what they are talking about. All your decisions should be based on doing research and investigating all possible outcomes. Looking at the facts of the situation and not make a decision based on emotion is the best way to decide what you should do. This story is based in USA and the European market was the one in recession, not the US market. The father thought his son was right as he stopped all his marketing efforts and his sales declined.

The first thing you need to do to rewire your subconscious for wealth creation is to answer a few simple questions about financial pressure.
1.When was the last time you felt financial pressure?
2.Do you currently feel financial pressure in your life?
3.Does having more money really create less financial pressure?
4.When have you felt completely free from financial pressure?
Apart from happiness what do you think people really want in their life? In my view the answer is security.
Would you say that people mainly link pleasure or pain to money? From surveys that have been conducted in Australia, university studies have determined that many people actually link more pain then pleasure to money.
Most of us will do more to avoid pain then we will to gain pleasure. This is important because consciously if we link pleasure to money and get excited about money and start doing things to be financially successful, we will start to move forward.
Society conditions us to be self sabotaging. We don’t base our decisions on logic we base our decisions on emotions. Subconsciously large proportions of us have a negative attitude to money. We have all heard the saying “money doesn’t grow on trees”, “filthy rich”, “stinking rich” are all negative saying against money. Being told “we can’t afford it” as a child or having parents that had to go away to work have given many people negative subconscious thoughts about money.
Here are some very interesting statics per 100 Australian’s by the age of 65.
Did you know:
25 are dead
20 have annual incomes of under $10,000 (that’s below our poverty level)
51 have annual incomes of between $10,000 and $35,000 (median is $18,000)
4 have annual incomes of over $35,000
Yet 1 in every 100 is a MILLIONAIRE

In today’ s scoiety you have to learn how to create your own wealth and master your financial intelligance. Failing to do this will result in you turning out like 90% of Australians dead or dead broke by the age of 65.
• Do you work for free in your job or business? If not, why not?
• Jamie is committed to donating the initial 3 hour DVD plus provide a team of coaches available to answer questions at no charge to over 100,000 individuals, which is quite generous, considering the expenses involved. However, for those requiring further training, support and access to Licensed Sharebrokers, Property Sourcing Team, Accounting and Finance Brokers to help implement the strategies it requires a fee.
• From experience, Jamie found that those truly committed to changing their life wouldn’t hesitate to invest into their own education.
• Jamie used to do it for free and found people don’t value something as much if it is free, as a result they have a lower commitment, and thus achieve poorer results.
• Jamie doesn’t want uncommitted people doing his Homestudy course, thus by charging it eliminates those who are not committed to improving their life.
• Part of what Jamie teaches is that you should add value and not under charge for your services, thus be confident to charge what something is worth.
• Life is often a reflection of where a person is at, Jamie invested over $100,000 into seminars and tapes to learn these strategies and as a result became successful faster than most people. Those who are reluctant to invest in their education often don’t realise this is reflected by the universe being reluctant to allow wealth to flow into their lives.
• The course comes with a ten times 90 Day 100% Money Back guarantee, thus Jamie has removed the risk for those committed to having a go and wishing to invest in the program.
• It costs millions of dollars a year to run 21st Century group of Companies and Jamie only wants to help those who are willing to help themselves.
For instance, ignorance can be more expensive than education. Can most people afford to continue to miss out on $2,000 to $5,000 most months of the year in extra cashflow that many clients can produce within 90 -180 days of doing the Program?
For any further questions, feel free to contact us or your Personal Account Representative or visit our Online Forum at www.21stcenturygraduateforum.com
• Firstly, the cost of something is relative, i.e. is it expensive or cheap to do the course if you learn how to make $2,000 to $5,000 many months of the year or more for the rest of your life from just one strategy? After doing the course, many clients realise the program is very inexpensive.
• One should also consider what it costs to go to University. The costs are a lot more than $49 per week or $3,995. And does one’s University fee come with a ten times your money back guarantee or it’s free? Obviously not. A University degree even though very valuable, doesn’t even guarantee a job, let alone skills that can produce real life results for a lifetime.

The programs are usually shipped within 48 hours, however this is not always possible. You should allow 14 to 21 days for delivery however it often arrives sooner. If it hasn’t arrived within 21 days please email info@learntoberich.com.auso they can track where the program is.
The programs are charged in Australian dollars no matter where you live, so if paying for it by credit card, your credit card company will automatically convert it for you on your credit card statement. The Australian dollar is approximately $0.75 to the US dollar (as of early 2005) however this can vary.
Yes, the strategies work wherever you live in the world with a few exceptions. The share strategies are best done on the Australian Market or the US Market, which anyone in the world can easily access.
The success principles and the mindset of a millionaire are applicable no matter where in the world you live.
The property investing strategies vary from country to country and the property strategies covered are predominantly tailored to the Australian, New Zealand and UK Property Markets. However, if you live outside these countries this is a good insight to investing in these property markets as they represent some of the best property markets in the world. An average person can become rich in a reasonably short period of time from property, i.e. 5 to 15 years or less.
However, the principles for property investing can be adapted to other property markets, especially the United Kingdom and the United States. Other emerging property markets such as Asia, Eastern Europe and Latin America can also provide great property investing opportunities as well.
The share strategies covered in detail in the Homestudy by licensed brokers use Australian shares as examples. However, you can use these strategies in any share market that has a liquid options market as long as it trades in US style Options.
You can do it in many markets around the world, however we recommend you use the Australian Market for the following reasons. For New Zealand clients you will simply need to use the Australian market and not even consider the New Zealand market as it isn’t possible at this point in time.
• It’s just as easy to use the Australian market as it is to use your local market (i.e. just one phone call a month to a licensed broker so it doesn’t matter where they are and free call numbers available for New Zealand).
• The Australian market can be very profitable.
• You can use the US Share Market, however we recommend to start with the Australian market due to the extra support we can provide. Once you become experienced with the strategies you may consider using the US market but it is not necessary.
• The program is based on using the Australian market so examples always refer to Australian examples.
• The Australian Options market is the third largest in the world, which means there is generally very good liquidity for trading and it is considered the second best in the world outside the U.S. share market.
• Time difference is quite alright for both New Zealand and Asian clients as the US market isn’t.
• When you purchase the Homestudy Program you get ongoing support from our Australian licensed brokers. You can have a share account application and margin loan application (if you wish to borrow money) sent to you free of charge once you receive your Homestudy Program and they can implement the strategies for you. Remember it’s just one phone call a month and many of our clients have supplemented their income within 90 to 180 days of purchasing the Homestudy.
Yes. About 60% of our clients take the payment plan option as it preserves their cashflow and works out at approximately $49 per week (charged at $199 per month). Those who pay up front in full receive a significant discount, thus they only pay the early bird rate of $3,995 plus $45 postage and handling. Visit our website Click Here
We have a refund rate of approximately 7% to 8%, i.e. 92% to 93% of our clients never request a refund and anyone who has been entitled to a refund has always received it no questions asked. This is done to ensure you have no risk in purchasing the program and can be guaranteed that what the program promises can be done in reality as long as you are prepared to take action.
It’s very simple. You have 90 days from the day you order the Homestudy to study it and if you don’t believe that you can profit by at least 10 times the course investment (ten times $3,995 or nearly $40,000) then you can return it to us for a 100% refund. Refunds are then processed within 30 days of us receiving the program back.
Yes these are porvided as part of your membership benefits.
These sharebrokers understand the strategies, and they also speak at the 21st Century Academy Seminars and work with our members ongoing.
They are also investors themselves so they can actually personally use many of the strategies as well.
We make them available to 21st Century Homestudy Members to ensure you are fully supported and can implement the strategies. They can also provide ongoing support and can look at your personal situation and provide advice if required i.e. share selection etc.
To receive the 21st Century Academy 5 Yeah Homestudy Membership bonus worth over $5000 extra including 3 additional years of support, increased from the standard 24 month membership you simply have to nominate a 4 Day Education For Life event you wish to attend within 30 days of registering and attend the 4 Day Education For Life event within 12 months of enrolling.
