I said I was Out, back to work! But I had to respond to Jerry. Yeah, I did fail at Amway and Excel. Why? Quit Amway ( Didn't like the culture, those people take it way to seriously ). I never put any effort into Excel. SO WHY IHI after two failed attempts. 1. Because I need the money? NOT REALLY, I have a successful career and make more than 98% of Americans and probably more than most of the people on this thread except the extremely successful IHI reps. 2. Because I like talking to my family, friends and clients about Network Marketing. NOT REALLY, Most of them think I am nuts until I show them exactly what I am doing. SO WHY IHI? Because I am a business man ( a pretty damn successful one ) and I recognize an opportunity when I see one. Did I see something in IHI that I didn't in Amway or Excel. You bet I did ! So who sponsored me? A business man ( a pretty damn successful one ) who recognizes an opportunity when he sees one. In fact he owns some restaurants. Yeah, some people fail because they sit on their butts and some don't make it because they sign up and do not have immediate success so they quit. Some don't make it because they would like to but they won't take a risk ( time or money ) Jerry, you understand risk vs. return. How is that different than any other traditional business. So I guess you borrowed some money ( risk ) and opened some restaurants. No work involved, the patrons just flocked in as soon as you opened the door and then you sold them for a tidy profit. RISK + WORK = RETURN. Yes, I do get it ! So if I know so much about success, Why network marketing and IHI. 3 reasons, my lovely wife and two children. It's called residual income Jerry, If something every happens to me, my huge income goes out the window, with network marketing it doesn't have to. Hawking golf clubs, skincare and vitamins isn't exactly my favorite thing to do but somethings are worth the effort. You know were not out their looking for victims so we can make money. Were looking for someone who wants to take a LITTLE risk, work and possibly earn a huge return. Guys like Charles, Dave and Lawrence OR Let's see, borrow a ton of money ( investors and bankers ) buy some land, build a building, purchase restaurant equipment, hire a chef and staff, work 80 hours a week for several years and sell them for huge money and then sit around a pick hot stocks and protect the public from huge pyramid schemes. I am glad you did well with your restaurants Jerry, don't worry about us and go open some more. You don't even need any money. P.S. I guess I am not so objective. I let Jerry get me all fired up.
