zaza interesting facts

Well, if you're active in the
stock market, you are surely aware that 85% of all
dot.com companies have lost 70 to 95% of their value
in the last nine months. You know what the people who
lost their money in those companies are going to do?
They are going to forget (just like a goldfish) the
consequences of an under-analyzed opportunity...
and... they are again going to jump on another looney-tunes
bandwagon... and... again lose a healthy chunk of
their hard-earned money.

Here are seven ways to make
sure that doesn't happen to you:

1. Blah, blah, blah.

Finally, how about Interesting Fact #27? You
know, the one about a dime having 118 ridges on its outside.
We could open with something like the example on page 7:

Dear Friend,

As you can see, I have
scotch-taped a dime to the top of this letter.

I want you to remove that dime
from this letter and run your fingers around the edge
of it. Can you feel all those tiny, little
indentations? Not many people know it but, every dime
manufactured by the U.S. Mint has exactly 118 of these
ridges.

Well, I bet right now you're
thinking, "So
what? That's kind of interesting but, what's it got to
do with me?"

My friend, the fact that every
dime manufactured in America has exactly 118 ridges...
and... so few people know about it, has led to a
fascinating situation from which you can profit to the
tune of more than $15,000 per month!

Here's why: Yackety, yackety,
yackety.

Okay, let's stop and take a breather. That
last example may seem a bit far fetched but, it is by taking
the handcuffs off your creativity that allows you to come up
with far fetched, insane, "crazy" ideas. And, many
of these ideas will spark other ideas that are actually
practical and doable in the real world. Can you write a
stimulating sales message built around the fact that
two-thirds of all the world's eggplant is grown in New Jersey?
