Often having just one amazing idea and being willing to work to bring it to the public has made someone wealthy. When you allow yourself to be creative and open to the Universe's way of responding to your vibration of abundance, you may come up with an idea that generates great wealth.

What would you do if you found cash and couldn't locate the owner? How would you feel about the money?
