Let me make a guarantee here and now. For $1 I will guarantee I can tell you what will happen to you the very first thing in the morning. You can even pick the date but don't make it too far out. My prediction goggles can only see so far.

Please send cash only...

Thanks for the link. I truly enjoyed the story.
Hi Tom,

Glad you liked it! I think the story is also told in Denny Hatch's book, "Method Marketing"...

The crazy thing is - that "scheme" would work! (And be "easy money"...)

Though - the "long arm of the law" would (probably) eventually catch up with anyone who tried it "for real"...!
