Helping Entrepreneurs This Christmas

If you’d like to give a gift to an entrepreneur this Christmas, you might like this opportunity from Gospel For Asia. It’s a Christian program that I support – perhaps there are other non-sectarian ones you may prefer. Maybe KickStart.org is a place you’d like to give.

Some of the gifts are what you might expect for helping Third World entrepreneurs – livestock, for example.

I ran across a neat gift that I think most American business people would like. No, it’s not a viable opportunity here today. But most of us would like a business that had

1) A one time investment

2) Provided profits monthly

What is that? It’s a pay phone like the one pictured above!  For $60 you can give one to a family and enable them to produce revenue for quite some time.

Hey, if those were still a viable opportunity here, who wouldn’t like to have several churning out income every week? I sure would!

Here’s how Gospel for Asia describes them:

Yes, they are still used throughout Asia. And when a poor family installs a pay phone near their home, they can reap the benefits of its profits for years. It’s a way to provide extra income for the entire household.

I don’t know exactly what I’ll be giving this year. I’m going to involve the kids and see what they think we should give with our gift budget (I should have asked them what gift they would be willing to give up to help a poor family!)

But, I wanted to tell you about that cool gift. I know how much business opportunity seekers like residual income!
