Sometimes it’s more about the package than the content. And sometimes a presentation sells a product more effectively than describing it, no matter how great it might be.

Here’s what I mean:

I’ve been lucky to experience some extraordinary things in my life, and you can read about it by exploring the About tab at the top of this page. But if you want to be exhilarated, just run over to
Gil’s page. You’ll be wowed out of your socks — not because he’s 39 and he’d rather go to the beach than a pool, but because of the way he tells it.

Gil’s “25 things about me” entry is nothing less than a great example of a natural talent to tell a story in a way that propels the ordinary to “wow.”

He makes you want to know more, without leaving you exhausted (or bored or revealing too much about himself) by just reading about his exploits.

I’m not psychic, but I could get away with claiming it, because my prediction for his future is going to be right: His future is going to be bright!

It’s no secret that Ed and I are quickly entering our “golden years” and won’t be able to do the work we’re used to taking for granted. This is the time when people our age are looking at retirement and applying for pensions and Social Security.

But times are hard now, and not many people are ever going to see their pensions, and Social Security is in bigger trouble than ever. We don’t expect much there either.

But life online is a new way to go… a new, bright future. And we are now committed to building that new future so we can actually enjoy the golden years as we planned.

Thanks to marketers like Alex Jeffreys and many others who care about helping others, we don’t have to settle for a poverty lifestyle after all the work we’ve put in.

Come along with us here as we document our progress and pass along the help we’re getting so you can build your new future, too!
