Interesting Things

Well, I’m finding the Trump Network to be quite interesting at the moment. It’s been a roller coaster ride for sure and I’d like to share a little bit about that.

I was actually working on a real estate investment situation where my family has a housing development that is floundering due to the economy. Absolutely tremendous development, but very bad timing. So, I recalled a connection that friended me on Facebook a couple of years ago, Duncan Wierman, and I looked him back up. I ended up chatting with him and getting some good feedback and some actionable items, however something that caught my eye was an entry about the Trump Network.

The name alone, Donald Trump, caught my attention. Obviously he’s a tremendous billionaire real estate mogul, and the star of The Apprentice, but what would this Trump Network be?

So, I researched this out a bit and discovered something that really piqued my interest more than anything. It turned out that he had explored several competing companies early this past year and ended up choosing a company called Ideal Health upon which to apply his name and acquire. This company was consequently rebranded to the Trump Network this past March and has begun to really pick up steam ever since. BUT, the product is what is fascinating.

First, they actually take test (urine for the majority of needs, but for allergy testing a blood test is available) and match this with leading edge technology that is JUST NOW becoming available to the consumers of the nation. I actually had a similar idea (my concept and product are actually still unique and actually complimentary of this offering) a few years ago. When I saw a portion of my idea implemented in this fashion, I became excited and upset. Once I did realize that it was not a competitor to my concept, I became much more excited.

Frankly, as others have put it, this was a perfect storm. It is cutting edge technology offered to consumers to customize our nutritional intake to our personal needs based upon absorption. Further, it is rebranded with the name of a very big business man that simply does not generally fail nor give up. These two alone are enough to draw me in as I know it will be insanely huge, but there is more.

His concept of an American bail-out is interesting. I think it can help indeed, but there’s more to it.

I have a secret that I’ll let you in on here. I have a family member that is a high up executive in a mega international corporation. This person has been over marketing of several different world regions and has presided over new and secret product launches. It has been a long time since this person shared this with me, so I’m going to go ahead and share it here without any particular details that could land me in very hot water, but you’ll understand the core AND you’ll see one of the reasons that this venture is so BIG.

This person created a new market line specifically for children that would provide foods and snacks that would be specifically tuned to enhance their mental and physical performance. It would give them an edge to compete in the world. This corporation was not willing to bring these child nutritional enhanced lines to the United States unfortunately and were only going to focus on third world nations, particularly India.

I found this interesting and disturbing. We really needed this in our country and I found myself wanting to beg for the products for my own children. It was disconcerting to say the least for me as our junk food nation needs this more than any other land on earth.

So, as I was reviewing the products, I agreed that the vitamin regiments were tremendous. The energy drink mixtures were great. The weight loss product line, Silhouette Solution, is absolutely fabulous and far superior to Nutrisystem. BUT the upcoming products are fascinating!

These folks are going to obliterate Amway and all of the competition. Not only is their product line superior in quality and customized to an individual’s needs, but they are moving ahead in very big ways that are going to be insanely large markets. Sure, they have an anti-aging cosmeceutical line coming, but they have this new line for children coming down the pike! I will guarantee that my children will be among the first to take advantage of the brain boosting and health boosting effects of these offerings!!!

So, I’m trying to chronicle some of my progress as I move ahead here and actually document my lifestyle and marketing success through my dedicated Twitter account for this project. Please follow along and learn with me! I’m really starting to get excited.

After the initial excitement, I was finding that I was being bombarded with too much information, but finally after speaking to my up-lines I’ve found some very useful information. I was really thrilled to know that I’m actually part of the largest group or leg of the Trump Network among some of the oldest in the Ideal Health business. Thus, my frustration turned to hope and I’m really seeing the light now.

Speaking to one of my Diamond Director uplines I learned that while it took her three years to become a Diamond Director it is now only taking folks THREE MONTHS! The earning potential at this phase is phenomenal. It really is.

After we had a meeting this past Saturday with some local folks who became interested in our ads, my wife, Yolanda, became very interested. She’s now as or more gung ho about the entire thing than I am. Please follow her on her Twitter account as well. She has some very good tweets and a great imagination for content that will really carry her far in this. I think you’ll have a blast reading some of her remarks.

One other interesting thing is that this is a convergence of some very hot topics at the moment. If you look at it, people are first concerned about wealth and simply making ends meet or paying bills. Everyone seems to struggle and who couldn’t use some additional income? This is your first though, even before health because having your financial needs met or wealth is actually a gateway to health! How can you focus on being and living healthily if you can’t afford food, healthcare, insurance or the time to exercise?

I know I face this dilemma regularly. It’s so hard to do what you know you need to do if you are working to take care of your children and to pay the bills. Mr. Trump has hit our needs right on the head, even if we don’t yet realize it.

Finally, please check out a few other links to learn more. To see Donald Trump himself give you a short presentation, click this link.

We’d LOVE to work with you. I think with my computer consulting and computer science, graphic design, animation and entrepreneurial background that I can help you to really see tremendous success if you’re interested in participating in the next big health and wealth revolution to hit our nation.

I’m really happy that we have all of the internal networking and support needed to help us to realize success. I tried one MLM/network marketing venture several years ago and was burned badly. I vowed never to do it again, particularly because I tried it and my sponsor bailed out on us. I am happy to say that this is not the same. Not only is the business kit to get started on the Fast Start program MUCH cheaper than many, I now know that I have the support I need to actually realize success.

We’re planning on going to Miami in November and getting a person photograph with Donald Trump ourselves and really would love for you to come along with us. I think it will be a lot of fun.

Shoot me an email, tweet me (of course my personal as well) or just go here to read a little more or this will allow you to request more info.

A) people nationally would feel MUCH better (general happiness would be improved, family relations and tensions eased and so on, even if at least for a limited period of time),

B) financial institutions would get the money back that they so very much need to triage their varied issues and

C) consumer spending, home purchasing, business investment, et al would dramatically increase(!!) and the nation would be lifted out of this recession back into productivity.

This morning I feel somewhat sobered.  My wife came to me and said, “I feel like I’m mourning.”  I asked her why and she explained that this economic crisis and the condition of our nation make her feel like someone great has died.  She is very concerned about what will happen next and as to what our children will be facing.

I, too, feel this burden.  It seems that we have made the full transition from the world superpower to the world’s super-farce.  I indeed hope that this is temporary, but the only way that it can be temporary is if we make some changes. Read the rest of this entry »

Perhaps we should take another route.

I believe that this money, perhaps a little more, should be divided up between all indebted (perhaps more) households in the United States and thus given back to the people so as to allow the amelioration of financial bondage to occur.  If the government empowers families to pay off their homes, their loans, their credit cards, and other debt, which will SIMULTANEOUSLY GIVE BACK to the financial institutions we will see a much happier and freer society with the side effect of assisting the financial institutions somewhat.

It may also be simultaneously considered that this be used to free folks from current IRS debt as well. The effect will be a stimulation of people’s personal finances, an assistance of small business owners that will in turn drive our economy much further ahead and raise general happiness and satisfaction amongst the ranks.

Wow, now that is a solution that will have immediate tangible benefits.

Throughout the course of starting our new company I’ve learned quite a bit about “tech” culture over the last few years.  As I continue to listen and to associate with folks from tech centers of our own nation and around the world I do not cease to be amazed at the way in which people communicate.

Rudeness is the singular hallmark and keystone of the majority of communication. It seems that no one can, with respect, kindness and soberness, share their feelings or thoughts anymore. Much of thought seems void of depth and meaning and often when it is meaningful, it is salted with vulgarity or rudeness that obliterate it’s real depth and appeal to the audience.

As leaders and members of the human family, we used to speak with more thought and paced ourselves versus throwing out vulgar rants and crudeness. Can we please try to get back to these roots and raise the bar a bit for society as a whole? I believe that if we can do this that we will all be able to work better together, appreciate deeper thinking and have a more productive society.

There’s a quote that I will paraphrase that has always lingered in my heart and that is that course language is the attempts of a feeble mind to express itself forcibly. How true this is and what a poor shortcut it has become in our society. We need to bring civility and charity back to our world or we have no hope of really progressing together. If we cannot progress together in unity, then, as a nation, we will certainly fully fail.

We really need to add our voices to this initiative. It is being supported by Google and will benefit all of us across the nation, particularly in Appalachia and sparsely populated areas. It will also add competition to the existing broadband providers, which will continue to drive technology. We’ve needed this for years and it makes perfect sense to utilize the unused television channel bandwidth that is so abundant, particularly in the areas that need it the most!

Hear this Google and others in the initiative: Ohio has over $200M (I believe around $280M) to invest towards bringing ubiquitous high speed Internet service to citizens across the state. This money could help to bring this to full fruition. The governor is from southern Ohio and I could help put you before key individuals to help push this along if you contact me.

How interesting: A 38-State Nation.  This is something that has never crossed my mind previously, but is something certainly worth exploring if enacted with some other changes that could benefit our nation.

Thanks @jimkukral for pointing this video out.  I found this to be very touching as well.

I really appreciated Peter Kim’s interesting blog entry from today titled “How to set an ego trap.” Peter, you hit on some important examples and your previous game mechanics post is quite insightful.

Of course these lead into seeming suppositions and hard truths on humanity. These certainly ring true for what I’ve observed and encapsulate very important points that indicate “natural” human behavior (and on a religious note: as opposed to unnatural or not ego stroking as it were). Very useful Peter, thanks!
