Delay Is The Death Of All Dreams

What
to do? Well, in Le Vandon, France, the cemetary is "full to bursting"
so Gil Bernardi, the mayor has issued...

A
Ban Prohibiting

Residents From Dying!

"Initially,
the decree has been remarkably well followed,"
the mayor said, "except for one
homeless man who passed away." (He probably wasn't aware of the ban.)
The town is desperately trying to find a resting place for this poor soul.

Here's
the point: Nobody really knows how long they have to live. The truth is, none of
us have very long... from... the very day
we are born! Life is short at best... and... it can end for any of us in a
micro-second. So, I've got one question for you:

How
Many More X's Are You Gonna

Fill
In The Boxes Of Your Life...

Until...
You Decide To Start

Living
Out Your Dreams?

The
particulars of your dreams are almost certainly different than the particulars
of mine. And our dreams (yours and mine) are almost certainly different from
the dreams of our friends, co-workers, neighbors and relatives.

Even
though our dreams may be different, there is one
element almost universally common to everybody's
dreams and, that one element is...

Total
Financial Freedom!

Most
people die broke. Most people live broke. They barely make it from one
paycheck to the next. The vast majority of new businesses go bankrupt within
36-months. Even so-called "successful people" are nothing more than
(at least by my definition) deluded slaves to their own business or sometimes,
someone else's business.

Now,
imagine a different kind of success. Imagine a successful life where you
"work" your own hours. Or, if you so choose, you don't work at all.
You have every material possession you've ever coveted. A Rolls Royce. A string
of Cadillacs. A Rybovich fishing boat (the finest in the world). No debts
whatsoever. Your lovers (or "significant other") are
"killer" women. (By the way, "killer" women are attracted to
successful men.) You pick and choose who you will work with, what projects you
will get involved in... because...
