Goodbye 04-06-05

Yet, in spite of all these things, I bet I can teach you more about how to make a website profitable than any Internet guru on earth. (Pity I'm not going to share this with you, isn't it?)

Back to my readers once again. I love it so many people read my work. I love it so many people learn how to make lots of money from my teachings. I love it some of the people read my website simply because it gives them a psychological lift. I love it some people read my newsletters and benefit from some of life's painful lessons I had to go through... without having to go through the actual pain themselves.

You know, a few years ago when I was still publishing a "snail mail" newsletter, I had received so many letters of praise, we stopped counting and keeping them after we had more than 3,000. Now that I'm on the Internet and read all over the world, I bet I receive almost as many (or maybe even more) letters of praise as many of these bullshit televangelists who are promising happiness and eternal life for a cash donation.

I read every one of those e-mails and letters. Some of them are so touching, they almost break my heart. Some of them are amusing. And almost everyone thanks me for the contribution I have made to their lives, whether in some small or large way.

The chances are very good, if you send me an e-mail, that you will NOT get a reply. There are number of reasons for this:

First, there's a pretty good chance that because of AOL and all the various spam filters, I won't even receive your e-mail message.

Secondly, because I receive so many e-mails, it would be impossible for me to reply to them.

You know, I have a vision I hope does NOT come true. Want to know what that vision is? I thought so.

I'm lying on a hospital bed under an oxygen tent. There's a knot of people standing around the bed as I lay there dying. One of them asks the doctor, "How long has he got, Doc?"
