I really do think that your book will hit the big time as everyone reads it and people need to forward it to their friends to find out what's worthwhile and what's worthless.<br /><br />This may sound like you "won the lottery" but it's far from that. You put a lot of time into that book, I'm sure. What's more, the ideas in that book were hardly being discussed by anyone else but a select few. A lottery winner is a mere gambler, you brought VALUE to our society with this knowledge and so you will receive through free market principles the value that society places on this knowledge.Amateur Strategisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17117180958923946810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-80025381198922047922012-02-13T13:44:02.935-08:002012-02-13T13:44:02.935-08:00Great news!
