Another day, another dollar as they say. Hopefully as our days go by it’s more dollars in each day than we know what to do with, but such is not the case for most in life. There is a way to increase the dollars you gain every day by using more of your entrepreneurial spirit and investing your time into business opportunities — off line or online.

Are you an entrepreneur at heart? Or, perhaps an investor looking for the right opportunity? If so, the Wealth Expo in New York would possibly be of interest to you, and it starts next week! The three-day conference features keynote speeches from well-known investment professionals, exhibitions by some of the largest public and private companies in the world, and opportunities to network like no other investment seminar today.

There are numerous sessions to attend over the three days. If I were to choose one, the session that sounds interesting to me is the one called, “Top Five Things to Consider Before You Buy A Franchise” by Colleen De Baise of SmartMoney.

Why would I select that session? Years ago I came up with a franchise idea, and although I have yet to pursue the adventure, it would be good to know the top five things to consider before anyone would want to invest in my franchise — if I one day realize the dream. I’m still optimistic that I will, but there are other priorities on my plate at the moment to iron out first. Timing is everything, but life goes by too fast so it’s important to pursue our dreams and goals, especially as entrepreneurs!

Investing in your future doesn’t have to only be through the market, and if you don’t have many dollars to invest then a business to create wealth for your future through hard work and sweat equity just might be the right viable option for you. If you are interested in attending the conference, here’s the three day schedule:

Friday, 10/19: 1 p.m.-6:30 p.m. EDT w/ a cocktail hour to follow
Saturday, 10/20: 9 a.m.-6:30 p.m. EDT w/ a cocktail hour to follow
Sunday, 10/21: 9 a.m.-4 p.m. EDT (no cocktail hour)
