re: Smackdown...

I'll have what I believe to be, one of the most
valuable smackdowns that I've written in
quite a while, posted by Wednesday, or Thursday
evening. Because over the next few days, I'm trying
to "close" a dream.

Many years ago, I met an interesting man - Ed Lowe.
Ed basically invented "Kitty Litter" and created a
billion dollar industry.

Ed later created a foundation to foster entrepreneurship,
and left his 2,500 acre estate outside Cassopolis, Michigan
to his foundation.

While Ed was not a personal mentor, I had the opportunity
to meet him, and talk with him on a couple of occasions.
As a young man with big dreams, what he shared with me,
left a lasting impression.

One of the things Ed spoke about, was the difference between
money and wealth. I think many of us have money and wealth
confused.

Many of us have money. Maybe even a lot of it. But, not
necessarily wealth, because wealth is more than just money.

This market has, and will continue to, provide the opportunity
to turn money into wealth. Over the next couple of days, I'm
trying to "close" a dream. But, that's not what I want to
talk about. What I want to talk about, is the impact that just
one person can have on your life, and the impact that just
one good idea - like Ed Lowe had in developing Kitty Litter -
can have on not just your life, but on others as well. How,
just one good idea - can give you the opportunity to turn
money into wealth.

Mo later - on the value of just one good idea.

S.O.T.B.
