After a conversation with G.I. Eddie, I’ve decided to post my story…
I have an uncanny ability to manifest and achieve whatever I focus on. From opportunities, money, women, mentors, miracles and of course G.I. Joes. Even though I started collecting in November, I found two Flints and returned one honestly because I wanted someone else to have the same feelings of achievement that comes with finding a rare item that has been eluding you for so long.
My ability to focus has created a passion for challenges of which is my greatest strength and greatest weakness. When finding these Joes became easy as a result of establishing relationships, I accepted the challenge of helping collectors with the burden of no supply. This has allowed me to help and serve so many.
Funny, after Wave 7 I thought I’d take a break and just pile-my-loot with BBTS on Waves 8 & 9 but when people started asking for help I came up with another challenge worth pursuing. Michigan is always five days behind the debuts of GI. Joe product. How can I personally get in the way of distribution effectively? Well, I've just perfected my G.I. Joe hunts yet again enlisting the help of my sister in GA and two more-than-willing friends in AZ and CA! In just three days their efforts alone has produced close to $400 of Wave 8 and Wave 4 CP product. What's next... distributor?
NOTE: I still have my pre-order with BBTS. Those purchases are to help satisfy the wants of my Michigan Tankers at a very fair price, check my feedback.
The results are amazing and a little spooky at times especially when I become definite. I remember my mother always telling me, “You can do anything you put your mind to!” Kids really are like wet cement. Whether you constantly tell them that they are going to be president of their own company one-day or locked-up in prison by age 21... either way, you’re RIGHT!
