Colin Dixon’s Summary

TRUE WEALTH has 3 main components and in order
1. HEALTH, nothing is more important Mental, Physical and Spiritual
2. KNOWLEDGE, without this health will be compromised and everything else, so much of what we think we know is false.
3. MONETA meaning trust and memory, the root of todays money, or barter with this comes the realization that we own nothing just have the use of things for a period of time, what is living without sharing.

From dealing with 1000’s of businesses over more than 20 years and owning several. I have a comprehensive overview of how they operate and where there are holes, with my scientific background and understanding of the technology and the internet and its applications, I can quickly implement cost savings and better strategies to reduce overheads and improve the bottom line.
I enjoy the satisfaction of helping SME’s improve the profitability of their businesses.
I recently went to India to investigate how outsourcing works and what products were available and was very impressed. I know have great contacts across, IT web programming, mechanical engineering AutoCAD, Watch Manufacturer, Clothing Manufacture, in organic cotton both knitted and woven.
