Ugh, the way this blog post is written reminds me of all those fast-cut YouTube videos made to hold your attention by changing camera angles every 2 seconds.

Did I miss the part about where we learn HOW he actually lost the $100,000 in cash? Or what specifically lead to that other than some vague BS?

I was waiting for the "BUY OUR EBOOK NOW AND YOU TOO WON'T LOSE $100,000!" at the bottom of all the scrolling. I was kinda disappointed.

It was in JANUARY! JANUARY! But in 6 WEEKS he managed to MAKE $100,000. CASH!

So to answer your question, you might need to buy the 2 day seminar, 8 tape set, and special VIP membership (available for 1 day only) to find this out. But it's worth it. You do like money, don't you?

This article seems to have been automatically generated by a computer -- it makes no sense. Almost all paragraphs are one sentence, at most two.

"Your best employees should be so good that you practically never think about them."

I'd just LOVE to work for her /sarcasm

I've made very stupid hires - one jerk cost me my largest customer.

However, I've hired people who needed a first IT job and didn't have a good resume. One in particular was working in furniture rental store, and after working well for my company for a few years, he went on to bigger and better things and is earning probably 80k.

Hiring people that need a leg-up can be a good thing for this world.

I would square the two ideas("hire carefully", "hire good people that need help") by immediately firing anybody that displays any sort of ethical lapse. All my 'bad' employees showed signs of ethical problems long before they did their damage.
