Perry Marshall Quote of the Week from our Mastermind Forum, from Lucas Rockwood: People always say, "I'd never buy from a site like that!" And then one day their cat gets cancer and they buy 3 ebooks and order a special kitty bed from Guam that plugs into the wall and zaps free radicals.

Perry Marshall I'm watching "Cake Boss" on TLC. You could pull off a reality TV show about a laundromat if you got a colorful enough owner.

Hm, a laudromat reality TV show might be pretty interesting! Think of the mystery, romance and drama... over the lost socks... Hope you are having a great Thanksgiving holiday!

Frankly, some of the most interesting and mentally ill people I've ever met were at the laundromat.

I haven't looked into it but as it is the newspapers are giving Google free content. Not hard to understand their dislike of it

Perry Marshall For 40 years now, I've taken Tater-Tot Casserole entirely for granted. Today I was alerted that my next-door neighbor from Iceland has never tasted the stuff. Who knew?

Hi Perry, I wonder if the goal of the Government is to turn the prisoners back into teenagers, whose biggest threat to society is non stop texting to anyone who will reply?

Funny, love The Onion... Metallica is certainly a "love 'em or hate 'em" type of band, but I tell you - if you want to go exercise/run/ride and need something to get pumped up, there isn't much better music...

This is just another form of 80/20, isn't it?

It's smart to give most of Your effort, time, budget ...
to the 20 percent of prospects, who will actually take the time and make the effort to call You ...

Perry Marshall If
you have 2 families that are exactly identical - same income, same
everything - but one family gives $100 more than the other...



The giving family will earn $375 more in the future. The statistics
indicate giving causes the rise in income, not the other way around.



It works even if you just give blood!



-Economist Arthur B...rooks, 2009. Explains why on this video.

Doug, It takes some extra "push" but I think you'll find if you just unselfishly go help somebody else solve their problem you feel so much better. It creates momentum.

So true Perry.
Doug, take the time and listen to someone share their pain. That act alone is a great gift.
Its a rare thing, as most people won't take focus off themselves long enough to do even that.

So, switch to Bing and light up your neurons? Seems like an opportunity for a "Discovery Engine" that expands your awareness as it helps you discover what is actually relevant to you and not just popular or successfully SEO'd.
