She Doesn’t See the $200.70 a Month Going Up In Smoke

Get this….

Earlier today I met with a prospect of mine
who just so happened to live near where I am.

In fact, I could WALK to her place if need be.

It’s amazing that someone could live so close
to you but it took a massive communications tool
like the Internet to connect her and I!

Anyway,

There we are

Talking about her desires, interests and about
how she’s bored, confused, feels unfilled, etc…

She’s…

Young (mid 30s)

Attractive

Healthy & Fit

Has a loving and adoring husband

Yet she’s UNHAPPY.

Why?

I had to pry a little deeper to find out.

At first, there was strong resistance.

Then a crack appeared

A little wider

A little more

Then BAM!

She was opening up like a 4th of July Grand Finale.

The root of her unhappiness revolved around ONE thing…

MONEY!

(Is that really a shocker though for you and I?)

The bottom line is this…

Her husband pockets $150K a yr as a V.P. of some
big shot corporate entity.

But he spends $175K a yr.

WOW.

Now that’s a money problem!

In other words, he’s sending them into
a bottomless pit called DEBT.

So she wants to cover her butt.

She wants to start making her own money.

Ok, this I can help her with.

Just when I think we’re making progress,
she throws me a curve ball by saying…

“I want to make some money, but I can’t
afford to put any money into anything right
now”.

Double WOW!

Was this chick for real?

At this point, I’m about to get up and walk out.

She’s not worth my time.

Not because she supposedly didn’t have any money,
but because the last thing I’m going to do is sit there
and try to CONVINCE her that she’s unaware of how
UNAWARE she really is.

Pay close attention…

Her next move shifted everything.

She pulls out a pack of Marlboros!

Are you freakin serious?

Marlboro cigarettes… they’re like $4 something a pack.

But remember… she doesn’t have the money!

So I turned the conversation to them.

“How much do you smoke”, I asked?

Her reply was…

“At least a carton a week”.

Hold on…

This gets good in a second.

So I asked her a 2nd question..

“How much are you spending each month on cigarettes”?

Her reply was…

Remember…

She THINKS she doesn’t have the money!

She said to me…

“I figured it up once. One carton every 5 days at $33.45
apiece totaled something like $200.70 a month”.

Holy Cow!

$200.70 a month for cigarettes.

That’s a car payment or a deposit into a savings acct.

But no

She’s spending $200.70 a month on cigarettes.

Unbelievable.

So right then and there I told her…

“You have the money you need to get started
in something. But you can’t see the money because
you’re too busy puffing away”.

She got PISSED.

Like a wet cat.

Claws out, hissing

It wasn’t pretty.

It was like I had just insulted her to the Nth degree.

Needless to say, our conversation didn’t end well.

Nor has she called or texted me back.

Oh well. No Sweat.

I’m not about to spend my time trying to convince
someone else that they have the money.

Everyone has money.

Somewhere, somehow, if they want it bad enough

They’ll find the coin to pay for it.

Oh and get this…

As I walked out of the cafe where I met her

I saw her drive away in a black Mercedes.

The only thing I could was just smile and walk away.

Knowing full well that she’s the one in trouble, not me.

Hopefully she finds a way out before it’s too late.

To Your Success
