This document summarizes how Oprah Winfrey became a billionaire through two simple methods: ownership and syndication. It describes how Oprah took ownership of her TV show's content and then syndicated it, allowing the show to air on other networks for a fee. This allowed her to profit greatly each time an episode aired. The document encourages readers to take ownership of their own stories and experiences and find ways to syndicate them to gain similar financial success and freedom from the limitations of their upbringings.

1. These Two Simple Things That Helped
Oprah Become A Billionaire

2. The two images
that you saw
definitely contrast
two lifestyles.
• The image on the left to me
represents abuse, anger, poverty,
and intense financial struggle.
• The image on the right to me
represents abundance, joy, giving,
freedom, and immense financial
freedom. For all of the fans of the
movie The Color Purple, this
contrast makes all the sense in the
world to you.
•
And even-though Oprah's
character from the movie is
fictional, it portrays a harsh reality
for many people around the world.
Even Oprah's real life story has a lot
of similarities to the character that
she portrayed.

3. Billionaire With A B
So stick with me and I will reveal the two
things that helped Oprah become a
BILLIONAIRE (that's with a B), despite
having very humble beginnings.

4. Have You Been A Prisoner? Have You Ever Been A Victim?
So many of us have become a victim of our
circumstances, and at the same time prisoners to our
parents example.

5. I know I will have to explain this point a little further.
Victim: is someone who had no control over their surroundings or the events that
happened to them, and shaped them. Most commonly the family we are born into, or
life altering incidents that were completely beyond their control.
Prisoner: is someone who is inside of a system not created by themselves, and does
not see an immediate way out. Our parents or guardians are THE very first examples
that we observe and model ourselves after.

6. EH HEM!
So if you grew up wealthy, and have never known
struggle, burnout, or financial stress in your life. My
point will be completely foreign to you.
But if you had parents that worked shift or salary jobs.
If you had parents that came from the era that
believed the following. "Go to school, get good
grades, get a good job, and save for retirement", then
YOU my friend are exactly who I am writing to.

7. So What Are The Two Things
Already??!!!
Oprah Winfrey completely transformed her financial
life using two simple methods. Two simple methods
that took her from a news room, to one of the
wealthiest people on planet earth. And those two
things
are..................................................................................
........................................................................................
.................. GO TO NEXT SLIDE ALREADY!!!

8. Ownership
And
Syndication
Oprah has gone on
record about the
advice that Phil
Donahue gave her.
Yes the guy in the
picture to the right.

9. • Phil Donahue told her that the real way to
make money is through SYNDICATION.
• For those of you that aren't T.V. nerds like
myself here's a definition.
• Syndication: is when content is allowed to air
on other stations or networks other than it's
original one for a price.

10. But wait Rodney you
skipped OWNERSHIP


11. That's where you are wrong. When a program is syndicated the
owner of the content reaps the financial benefits of each
showing and airing of the program.
Now can you guess who was the owner of the content when The
Oprah Winfrey Show became syndicated? DING DING
DING!!!!!!! That lady from The Color Purple.
Oprah took content that people found valuable. Then took
ownership of it realizing it's value and potential. Then she
syndicated it around the world. (AHA!)
And by using those two simple things she is now the Oprah that
gives away cars. She opens schools around the world, and she
continues to use ownership and syndication to continue her
success.

12. Aren't you glad you stuck with me?
You may be saying to yourself "I'm not Oprah, and I have never been in the
Color Purple". Don't fret though because there is hope.
There is a way that you can't take your own story (content), take ownership of
it (because your experiences are highly valuable), and syndicate it all over the
world.
And guess what!!!! You can use these simple strategies to escape the prison
of your upbringing. You can come to the realization that even though you may
have been a victim of circumstance, but now you can create your own
circumstances.
If you are ready to break out of the confines of your own upbringing, and
break free from the prison of your parents example. Go to
