fannie and freddy

8.00A Thursday morning ,yesterday was very productive, just as I strategized my early arrival at B N Y wiped clear the memory of previous days seminars missed I showed up in a trendy blend of A and E H with cool silver accessories and brown project bag collar turned up on my sport coat finished of with pink pocket square and a pair of black aviator style sun glasses ,the vendor meeting was short and as the rep spoke about the brand I was glad that I showed up the company that she represents is called ac, a denim company we have four types of style of this jean at BNY it is a Swedish company with Young owner and ceo ac was started in Stockholm in the founders garage he and three friends started a pr and marketing company the owner decided that he would have a hundred pairs of jeans made to send to his friends of the company however when he received the jeans he was not impressed by them so he stashed them under his desk there they stayed until a co worker found them asked what they were a sent them out to people they received a call from a store in Paris offering to buy the lot, the rest is history the ac chain has expanded beyond belief in ten years this story alone was worthwhile me being there, seminar finished I went to the R L store located In the P mall and took some pictures of the interior it is indeed beautifully done classic style walls and cabinets black and white in accent with cherry wood cabinetry tastefully accessorised with pictures and silver trophies and vases next move for me was straight to R G office at the venetian corporate offices I have been speaking to R Secretary a lot being the president of the V keeps R G extremely busy however I am prepared My presentation package for L S shoe service is with me upon entering the reception of the Corporate office I see the receptionist," are you Kimberly? " I say yes she replies I'm Y, up till now we have just spoken on the phone
I hand her my presentation service brochure "Is R G available?" I ask "no that would be nice hey" she says ,
At that very moment RG comes out of his office on his way to another appointment he is a young and dynamic man athletic build and very approachable for someone in is position today he is wearing a grey exquisitely tailored k suit he has always complemented me on my appearance and today I return the compliment to him "I just left you some thing R G how are you" " what is it how are? you I'm busy" he says "I know" I reply" you never have to explain that to me R G "I say" what do you want to do Y? "" bring my shoe service into your hotel" I reply "but I have 7 thousand rooms I just don't see how you can do that, I can't advertise a service and not deliver" "how about I start with your shoes first and we figure that out after"I reply "oh ill give you my shoes to do I have tons of shoes" by this time were in the main hall of V mall I and I say good bye R G continued on "see you he says. great I got my meeting, got a commitment from him and was given a task by him at the same time and all this in about three minuets ill take it. I call L the owner of the shoe repair store I will be using explain to him what just happened" we will just work harder" he says I laugh "yes but just suppose every guest in the hotel decideds at one time to get their shoes done, how will we do it? thanks R G for making me think as big as you do every day R G is in charge of one of the biggest hotels in the world that’s how you have to think when your at that level oh and by the way he is a millinonaire.On arriving home I put in a call to my good friend Major D fuller, major xtreme as I call him he has known about the shoe service idea since I started it, he is very skilled in operations he is a team leader and has had to hire, fire and lead up to one hundred sales profeesionals at a time. He is also a very shrewd investor ,he has a B. A in business and knows how not to lose a 5 million dollar tank to boot ,when your incharge of that car you better not bring it back wrecked, you won't only lose your job you may have lost the lives of you soldiers in your command. He is very interested in investing in L S S and said he is willing to fund the purchase of 100 pairs of shoes we we just roll them up to the door in the back of a van and and say" see you tomorrow get them done" this way ill know exactly how many can be actually done by L thanks for your support Major D .Fannie mae and Freddie mac are the two biggest morgage lenders in America and they are in trouble, as I woke this morning as every morning I turned on cnbc. Ive been listening to and watching the people that know about money wall street in real time go through ups and down in the markets, if you want to learn about money you simply have to learn about it as much as you can, absorb as much as possible, and because money is part of being a millionaire, I am no exception to this principle .I don’t know enough about the stock market yet to predict an outcome for fannie and freedy but I do know that those to institutions are in trouble. just imagine how their ceo' s chairmans, and employees will have to be on their game, Now I will watch the story as It unfolds and learn more.Yesterday I also had more progress with negotiation, B of A and two more credit card companies are working with me. im feeling confident, humble, and excited for my future. also made one call to a potential investor for the appolo las vegas will try to meet him next week Received email from Dj A and friend of m sent me 2 of his tracks to listern to.Pilot Productions is alive and kicking. Going for a run now, 20 laps today Iwill be running in 10k on sunday so this will be last run till then.
