Entitlements or Entrepreneurs
Entitlements
It seems like class warfare is being thrust upon America, with all the debate about entitlements and tax increases. I want to be very clear, I believe in the need for food stamps, emergency funds for someone in crisis, and social security benefits for a disabled person that paid into the program. But, we have gone from welfare as an emergency support to a way of life for millions.
I am reminded of the story of the new neighbor that moved into town. A long time resident thought it would be nice to bring her a pie. She baked the pie and knocked on the door to the surprised resident. “I wanted to welcome you and brought you this pie”. The pie was so well received the long time resident thought she would do it again the next day. This went on for four or five days. But, on the sixth day when the pie was delivered the baker neighbor was greeted with “you know, I like these pies but apple is getting a bit old. How about making a cherry pie”. The next day our pie eater said “Seems like a bit too much sugar yesterday”. The next day our baker friend had to run some errands and brought the pie several hours later than normal. Our entitled recipient greeted our baker with “What is happening here, this pie is hours late.” You are getting the idea. It was not long the receiver of these pies was disgusted with late, too sweet apple pie.
In 1978 I lived in St. Paul, Minnesota. I had just moved back from out of town. Nata and I had two children and one a month away from being born. We lived in my brother Doug’s basement. I was trying to get back on with the bus company. We had no food, no money, and everything we owned we had moved into the basement from the back of a Chevy Blazer. I was very thankful I had access to food stamps and some emergency money to help us over a “couple of weeks”.
Entrepreneurs
Shortly after this I got my job as a bus driver back and Nata got a job working nights at a fast food place. I watched the kids at night and she kept house all day. We lived on a treadmill, running and running but never getting anywhere. Good fortune came our way one winter night when a knock came on my door. My bother Jim came to show me how I could start my own Home Based Business. I resisted but finally gave in and started marketing some health products and an opportunity 12 hours a week. I spent 95% of my time presenting the business. I conducted 10-15 30-minute presentations a week. In 90 days I was earning $500.00 a month. In eight months I earned my first $5000.00 income for the month. I drove hundreds of miles a week doing presentations and demonstrations, but I was now free. My lifestyle began to change. A new bonus car and trips to Hawaii were earned. Soon we moved into a nicer place and in a few years built our dream home. I was now earning more money in a month than I had earned in a year.
Vollara is America’s Company
The Dallas Cowboy’s might be America’s football team but Dallas based Vollara is America’s Company. We are now changing the way the world does laundry. LaundryPure “is” the future of laundry care. Soap, suds, bleach, softener are going to become a thing of the past. Vollara is on a mission to save a billion gallons of water from the pollution caused by washing clothes in detergent.
LaundryPure pays for itself by saving an average of more than $1.25 per load. LaundryPure save users on hot water bills. You will never here the swish of the hot water heater lighting when you wash with LaundryPure. The discharge water is free of chemicals and suds, and is so clean you could water your vegetable garden with it!
Carpe Diem
Don’t miss the opportunity this time. I wish I still had that 57 Chevrolet. I could have bought land for Thousands in 1970 that sells for Hundreds of Thousands or even Millions now. It would have been nice to work at Microsoft in the 60’s. Lot’s of Multi-Millionaires came out of that bunch! In the year 2000 you could buy Apple stock at $25/share, instead of today's $366/share!
I will not miss out on the LaundryPure suds free revolution! Join me and the rest of Vollara as we revolutionize laundry care. You will not only be greening America, you will be greening your bank account.
Join me every Saturday at 10 am or Mondays at 9pm (all Eastern times) for the LaundryPure Webinar event. Go to www.presenter.net. At the top of the page click on “Attend Presentation”. The room name is “Vollara” and the password is “bigbest” (because we are building the biggest and best Company” in all of Home Based Business.) Bring guests! I am looking for 10 moms with dirty laundry to field test LaundryPure, risk-free. See you online!
