That's a good question Nkwekiti.
Consider it like this "Why should I invest in MYSELF?" or better still "Why SHOULDN'T I invest in myself?"
If you start any business, you can do it the hard way, doing everything for yourself. Or you can make it easier by making some investment.
Example 1 - you want to sell jeans, you can buy the denim, and spend a lot of time making them yourself, or you can buy them readymade or outsource the manufacture and sell the finished product for a profit, saving you much time.
Example 2 - you can open a store, go spend thousands on stock, and wait for the return to come back very slowly before you are making profits.
Example 3 - you can go study at college or university so you have an improved career and income some time away in the future. You would need to invest in tuition, books and materials to study your subject. You would have to advance at the pace set by the classes. You may qualify for your career in 1-4 years.
Investing in SFI is investing in yourself. It certainly gives your business a faster boost than not investing.
Investing will also give you more incentive to work harder, to get the benefit of that investment. I do believe that when something is Free, people do not value it so highly. That is not because it is worth less, but because people do not 'perceive' the value in it.
SFI gives a vast amount here for free: first-class training and support, your own website links, the forum etc.
However, there are even more advantages to investing at least to achieve EA.

Investing is SFI is investing in YOURSELF!
