Those that know me know that I like to test different quick cash methods. So I'm one of those people that do buy from blind ads. I see Gordon's point and I have been burnt quite a few times. But even on some of my really bad "buys" I have found nuggets of gold in the method that can be twisted to make it work. Or it may be used in a different market to succeed.

Take "Chatteling" for instance. I was doing that a long time ago but I just didn't know it was chatteling until Gordon opened my eyes. I was buying and selling until I met Gordon on this forum. Then I was "CHATTELING"!

What I got from his method at that time (quite a few years ago) did not fit me and my life style at that time. BUT the information was good. No, make that GREAT.

But I took that info and made it more on auto-pilot and that worked for me. At that time in my life (parade of life) buying and selling was too time consuming for me. Once I was able to automate the process it fit right in with my available time.

Now on to Glenn's "Bum Book". I tested it out and it worked! I made over 80 bucks per hours work. I did change some of the method to suit my image in my community. I did not want my friends and customers to think I turned into a BUM.

Now before anyone takes the posts by Gordon or Bozo as a negative let me say the only two I know of on this forum that have actual tried this method are Glenn and me. Gordon admits freely that he did not buy it, hence did not try it. And Bozo also admits he did not try it (all though he did buy it, most likely from profits of his headlight cleaning ) and stated "So, I can't say if the method is any good or not."

And Glenn and I have made a nice daily profit for our tests. Disclaimer! I will not be working this method as a business like the Bum, but if I run across the right person in my area I will show him or her how and where I did the tests so he or she can earn some extra income.

But I will promote this as an affiliate to my list. Who knows, someone on my list may twist and turn this into a REAL profitable idea.

Best of success,

Skip Rosell

Skip,

I think you already know I value your opinion, insight and knowledge. Your blind ad explanation fits me to a T. I've bought from blind ads and have been both happy and disappointed.

Unlike a lot of people on this forum I have met "bums" who made an absolute ALL CASH fortune from looking like bums. They called themselves street performers. I elected not to follow in their foot path. Plus I have absolutely no talent and couldn't figure out a way for people to pay me for my no talent.

I am not throwing out the baby with the bath water nor am I asking for the "secret" in Glenn's book. He did the research he is entitled to the rewards. I was merely thanking Boz for his input.

BTW, I didn't buy the headlight manual either. Simply can't see me cleaning headlights. If the gimoke is too stupid to notice he needs his headlights cleaned, well, shame on him.

Now I do have a "Bum's" program that I am limiting to 2000 people. Glenn knows what it is. He also told me it wasn't for him. That's OK too. It doesn't have to be. It is a system that makes anywhere from nothing a day to $5000 a day. All the participant has to do is follow two text messages.

The first will tell him what to buy and at what price and the second will tell him when to sell and at what price. Couldn't be simpler. The cost is a mere pittance - $90 a month. So, yours truly won't be cleaning headlights or working 24/7 gas stations.

Not because I see something inherently wrong with those programs. On the contrary. They involve manual work and I don't do manual work. I don't do manual work because my heart condition won't let me and not because I am a total snob.

Now you did mention affiliate for Glenn's program. I didn't know there was an affiliate opp attached to it. That opens up a new horizon. As long as I don't have to be the worker bee I might elect the affiliate route. Don't know that for sure but it is a possibility.

Anyhow, this is getting way too long. Again, Skip appreciate your offerings and wish you a super duper weekend.

Tom
