Listen up: The ad is very confusing and
deceiving to people with a first-rate marketing mind. You
pretty much have to have a world-class marketing mind
to understand the genius of that ad.

First, I will tell you how well the ad
worked. It attracted an enormous number of qualified
investors who, by my estimate, were willing to pony up in
the neighborhood of $400,000,000 to participate in this
project.

That ad is so Machiavellian, I believe not even 1 out of 1,000 readers will
be able to understand its almost unbelievable power. This
would truly be a candidate for the most powerful space ad
ever written.

And sadly, I suspect none of you... even
after you read that ad ten times... will ever have a clue of
WHY it's so powerful.

Not only that, there is a "back story"
concerning the ad. It involves very curious twists and
turns... and... some of the most bizarre, slickest,
intelligent and corrupt people in the annals of American business.

I bet you would like me to lead you by the
hand exactly through every step of the ad and explain what I
was doing as I wrote every sentence. I bet you would also
love to read the "rest of the story" about that ad.

I've been thinking about revealing all this
for almost eight years. I still am not 100% certain I want
to tell you all the secrets about the ad and the back story
that goes with it.

But I've made myself a deal.
