at 6.45am for a 7.00am start at the Boat Club, Buccaneer Drive Urangan
NOVEMBER BREAKFAST SPECIAL
2 FOR THE PRICE OF 1
This month the Chamber has the unique opportunity to be able to offer two presentations for the price of one with both presentations focussing on the future development of our great region.
1. UDIA BRIEFING ON THE WIDE BAY BURNETT REGIONAL PLAN
Now is the time for you to have your say. The State Government has outlined its’ plans for the development of the Fraser Coast over the next 20 years and is calling for submissions on how this plan will impact on you. We are talking about a plan that will impact on how you live and how you do business for the next 20 years and it is essential that you understand what it means.
To help us understand what it all means the Chamber has asked the local branch of the UDIA to provide us with a comprehensive briefing on how the plan will impact on life in Hervey Bay.
2. PETER CHAPMAN, EDITOR OF THE CHRONICLE ON THE FORESHORE DEBATE
We have all seen the recent media debate about cleaning up the foreshore and have asked Peter Chapman, the editor for the Fraser Coast Chronicle to talk to the Chamber and tell us about the feedback he received as a result of the survey and what he thinks the next step is.
DON’T MISS OUR LAST BREAKFAST FOR THE YEAR

I WANT TO BE A MILLIONAIRE VIA THE INTERNET FREE EVENT
INTERNET MILLIONS FOR YOU TOO
My name is Brett McFall, you’ve probably never heard of me before and quite frankly, that’s OK with me.
I’ve never been featured in the BRW Rich 200 (nor do I want to), hardly ever wear a suit and a tie (shorts, thongs and t-shirt is my dress-code). I don’t drive a Ferrari (although my Mercedes CLK is pretty nice).. I don’t have commercial premises with staff running around all over the place (home is where my heart is).
In fact, if you walked past me in the street you wouldn’t look twice, and you certainly wouldn’t say to yourself, “There goes a guy who makes thousands of dollars online and most of it whilst he’s asleep…” …and yet, that’s exactly what I do and the reason why I think you should listen to me right now.
I’ve discovered what I believe is the best model to make consistent cash flow and have been using it personally myself for the last 5 years.
But before I tell you about how you can do as I do, I’d like to tell you a little bit about why I think you should listen to me.
- I’ve written a #1 Best-Seller business book called, funnily enough, “How to Make Money While You Sleep”
- I’ve been featured on several current affairs TV shows.
- I make a consistent big 6-figure income year-in, year-out.
- I do this from my water-front mansion in Queensland.
- I have no staff, little overhead, zero stock and a pretty lazy lifestyle.
- I have clients in 49 countries around the world.
- I’ve taught my system and strategy to over 10,000 people around the globe.
- …and I’ve been paid up to $25,000 to mentor students on exactly how they too can make money while they sleep.

He moved to Bundaberg in 1999 and currently owns four McDonalds franchises spread across Bundaberg, Hervey Bay and Gympie.
