Book Synopsis Making Money From JUNK by : Steve Majors
Download or read book Making Money From JUNK written by Steve Majors and published by MakingMoneyFromJUNK.com. This book was released on with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You already know that “One Man’s Junk is another Man’s Treasure”, but just how would you go about making money from it? And, I’m not talking about ‘chump change’ either – how about HUNDREDS and even THOUSANDS of dollars per week! That’s just what I did – I started out with NO MONEY TO WORK WITH to get started, and turned a PILE OF JUNK into $72,864.29 in just under three months! In fact, I started in the ‘junk’ business because I just got fired from my job and needed some way to feed my family – and I needed something fast that had to turn some cash quickly. I had to learn how to make money from ‘thin air’ – and you can do it too – without leaving your current job! It isn’t hard, you just have to learn what it takes to make it happen. Oh, I had a big hang-up about being a ‘junk dealer’ – after all, who wants to deal in junk? Junk dealers live in ratty houses, have trash laying around everywhere and are always poor (like in the TV show Sandford and Son), right? I guess that is possible, but there is another side to it… Here’s what I discovered; + A system of ‘junk to cash’ that works – time and time again + Where to find junk that sells quickly + How to make even more money – by taking out the trash + 4 of the best places to look for high-value, quick-sell junk + Types of junk that others will buy from you for $$, but you should throw away + Who to deal with to get all the junk you can handle Now, that’s just a taste of what I was forced to learn quickly. I mean, I had no money, having been laid off from my job of over 12 years. The company closed quickly and there was nothing else available in the area doing a similar job – I had to work fast. But, I got lucky. I found a man that taught me the ropes – the ‘insider secrets’ to making money in the junk business. He had been in the business for about 20 years and wanted me to work a different area he couldn’t physically reach any longer. Since I lived in between his house and the junk, he agreed to teach me all the details of the business, work with me on putting the deals together and show me just how he did his business. Some of the things I learned from this long-term professional; + What to say to make your best deal + Powerful methods to quickly get you into those places that tell you ‘NO’ + The best people to contact to get the best junk FOR FREE + The people you want to avoid if you can – and what to say to them if you can’t + How to make offers that work for everyone + How to make a lot more money from choosing the right junk We began to work together. He gave me some super tips to get started quickly and I went to work. Once I made some contacts, he told me what to do to turn them into deals. A short time later, I made a deal and got some junk. He helped me pick it up, showed me how to sell it quickly and then we divided the money. I’d made $72,864.29 in just under three months… Even more money than I was making at my job – and not even 1/10 th the hours! Oh, my ‘mentor’ took a healthy cut – in fact, a ‘very healthy’ cut – of the profits. Of course, he had taught me a lot – things that would have taken me a long time to figure out for myself, and we both made some great cash in a short amount of time. I soon learned what to do for myself, and no longer needed him. But, I retained all that I learned and was well on my way to having my own junk business. And, I'm passing all these secrets on to you! + The exact statement to get tons of free junk that you can sell for $$$$ + A systematic method of offering that assures you make the maximum money + A super-quick method of finding out just how much your junk is really worth + A simple, ‘secret’ mathematical formula to find the ‘magical selling price’ for anything + The most vital rule that you absolutely must learn to supercharge your sales + The ‘insider's formula’ that guarantees you will make profits every time After learning all this, I went on to make my 1st deal without him – all alone in the world. I was really scared to venture out on my own, but I took the ‘step’ and found out a really important lesson; You don’t have to do it alone – if you rely on a time-tested system By relying on what I had already learned, and following the same techniques over and over again, I was able to step out and bring in tons of junk – all by myself! All it took was a bit of time to talk with people and find out what they have available, then work out a deal and go get the junk! Of course, then I had to sell it, but again, I followed the same path that I had learned from my coach and following through it, step-by-step, I was able to get rid of the junk quickly and started bringing in tons of cash in just a couple days. Continuing on the process, I was able to feed my family, put some cash in the bank and even increase our lifestyle – going on vacations, having nicer things and living like we never imagined before. I had such success with our junk that I even got a warehouse that stayed full of big-cash items that could be sold anytime for some instant $$. Of course, all my shelving, packaging and shipping equipment was all picked up FOR FREE – all in taking care of the junk business – I picked up all the ‘business stuff’ I needed – and never paid ONE CENT for it (now, don’t go telling the IRS! ;) I got so successful at it that my friends and family members wanted to know just how I did it. They, too, wanted the ‘insider secret’ to making buckets of cash with little effort – and certainly stopped laughing about me being in the ‘junk’ business. That’s when I started putting it all into a book. And, now, you can get all the secrets to making big bucks in Junk for yourself! Here’s what I’ve included; + You’ll learn a simple formula that few know about – and why those that don’t know it continue to lose money while you rake it in like a street sweeper after a sporting event. + The #1 secret to getting MORE FREE junk than your competitors. + A super-fast way to learn negotiation skills – without losing your money + Details of the best places to look for junk – what to take and what to leave alone! + My favorite junk and where I find tons of it + Ways to tell if it is a good buy, now and in the future I know, this sounds like a pile of stuff to learn, and you think there’s probably a month’s worth of reading and studying to do before you can start to make even the first dollar in your junk business... Far from it! I’ve made this a concise manual – a ‘quick-study’ course that anyone can understand in just a short amount of time. A way to put those that want it into business quickly and get that cash rolling in – really FAST! Start Immediately And, I’m not going to take a bunch of your time reading this letter. Yeah, I’ve seen those pages on the Internet too – those that go on for pages and pages, talking about little or nothing – working words and emotions to get you to buy something you don’t really need. I’m not that way. I believe that you already know that there are lots of methods to make money, that there are ways to make money from what others throw away. You just may not know how to do it yourself and what to do to really bring in the bucks – that’s what you'll learn in this manual. Maybe you’re just not sure YOU can do it – well, I’m here to tell you that, following the system that my mentor laid out for me (at a cost of several thousand dollars!), you, too, can bring in hundreds and thousands of dollars every month – depending on how much time you want to put into it. You can start, right now, and be putting cash in your pocket from JUNK very quickly (how’s this weekend sound to you?) All it takes is for you to get my manual, read through it and take some action – following all the tips and tricks I’ve outlined for you. Yeah, some of this is ‘common sense’, but unless you know how to maximize your time, energy and efforts to monopolize on it, common sense will bring just the same type of results – common! Now, that’s not what I want for you, and I’m sure it is not what you want for yourself. If you are looking for ‘common’ results, I don’t want you to even think about getting my manual – heck, why waste your time or mine if you aren’t serious about making buckets of bucks – even if it comes from selling ‘junk’? In my opinion, when the money comes in, it doesn’t matter what brought it in, just that it got brought in. If you can make thousands from ‘trash’, what difference does it make, really? A good deal that can bring you lots of $$ doesn't come along every day and you have to know when to take action and when to move on it to make your best offer. So, enough already! Let’s get you going, right now! Pick up my Making Money From Junk manual – the quickest method to truly ‘clean up’ on junk – like a street sweeper. Now, I know – you’ve read all about ‘guarantees’ on the Internet tons of times. Well, I’m not going to give you one at all – how about that? I don’t know how you will work, what you will do or even if you will ever take action on what I tell you at all – so, how could I promise you will ever make even a penny from what I teach you? But,... You will make money from this information. All you need to do is follow along with what I’ll outline for you, step-by-step. It might take you a day, a week, a month or even more before you find your first deal (and certainly it will if you spend your time watching TV instead of building your business – by the way, “watching TV” is not on the list of ‘To Do’ things in my manual!), but YOU WILL MAKE MONEY FROM THE INFO PROVIDED. What are you waiting for? Get my manual on Making Money From Junk – all you need to know to get going right away to make your share of the tons of stuff that many people are letting just sit on their shelves. I’ll show you how to talk with the right people – what to say and when. You’ll get everything in one manual – everything to get you making cash quickly. All this for $14.97!! That’s right – I’m not charging you an arm and a leg for this valuable information. Certainly not the thousands it cost me to acquire it. Why would I do that? Why would I almost give this info away? You know, I’m not really sure. I guess I just want to get more of this information out there – this ‘secret to making money out of thin air’ that made me tons of cash. Heck, I’d give this info away if I knew it would help, but I know one thing – if you don’t have some sort of ‘skin in the game’, you will not feel like there is any value and you will never take any action to gather up all the cash that you can from this info. Now, I know you are getting a heck of a deal here and here’s what I want from this… I want you to pass on a portion of the success you get from your first deal. No, I don’t want it myself, and I don’t even want to tell you where you are going to place it. All I want from you is to give 10% of your first junk deal to some charity. Donate it in your name or mine (if you like) – I don’t care. You see, I know that those of us that give back to our community will reap the rewards of it dozens and dozens of times over. And, what I’m doing by giving you this manual at such a ridiculous price is my way of ‘giving back’ to the community – your community, of you and your family. Now, it is your turn. Click the link, enter your payment info and follow the instructions to download the manual. Read it – all the way through, and see how simple it is to Make Money From Junk. Then, go out and make some deals. Take just 10% of the first one and give it back to your community – somewhere. You’ll feel better about yourself and your business. The community will be better because you did it. And, I’ll feel better knowing that you are making a change for the better in many people’s lives (most importantly – yours!) And, won’t it be great that all this good is done while getting rid of JUNK! Enjoy MAKING MONEY FROM JUNK! P.S. I'm positive that effort you put toward it will come back to you many times over. (It has already for many others!) Don't put this off any longer. Do it right now... immediately, while it's fresh on your mind. Not only that, but also every passing minute is a potential $10, $50, $100, even $1,000 in extra profits you might have added to your bank account. And each passing minute is unrecoverable. It's gone forever! Haven't you waited long enough? Click the link >P.P.S It works and works and works. The secrets are extremely simple to apply... the returns are almost instantaneous... Study the course and learn how these strategies work. I'm positive they will work for you. I believe in my product, and I want you to give it a try... you owe it to yourself to at least try it.

There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . .

Download or read book Start with Why written by Simon Sinek and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-12-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspirational bestseller that ignited a movement and asked us to find our WHY Discover the book that is captivating millions on TikTok and that served as the basis for one of the most popular TED Talks of all time—with more than 56 million views and counting. Over a decade ago, Simon Sinek started a movement that inspired millions to demand purpose at work, to ask what was the WHY of their organization. Since then, millions have been touched by the power of his ideas, and these ideas remain as relevant and timely as ever. START WITH WHY asks (and answers) the questions: why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into a product, service, movement, or idea until they understand the WHY behind it. START WITH WHY shows that the leaders who have had the greatest influence in the world all think, act and communicate the same way—and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.

Book Synopsis The Hungry Brain by : Stephan J. Guyenet, Ph.D.
Download or read book The Hungry Brain written by Stephan J. Guyenet, Ph.D. and published by Flatiron Books. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year From an obesity and neuroscience researcher with a knack for engaging, humorous storytelling, The Hungry Brain uses cutting-edge science to answer the questions: why do we overeat, and what can we do about it? No one wants to overeat. And certainly no one wants to overeat for years, become overweight, and end up with a high risk of diabetes or heart disease--yet two thirds of Americans do precisely that. Even though we know better, we often eat too much. Why does our behavior betray our own intentions to be lean and healthy? The problem, argues obesity and neuroscience researcher Stephan J. Guyenet, is not necessarily a lack of willpower or an incorrect understanding of what to eat. Rather, our appetites and food choices are led astray by ancient, instinctive brain circuits that play by the rules of a survival game that no longer exists. And these circuits don’t care about how you look in a bathing suit next summer. To make the case, The Hungry Brain takes readers on an eye-opening journey through cutting-edge neuroscience that has never before been available to a general audience. The Hungry Brain delivers profound insights into why the brain undermines our weight goals and transforms these insights into practical guidelines for eating well and staying slim. Along the way, it explores how the human brain works, revealing how this mysterious organ makes us who we are.

This book tells the story of how academics, physicists, mathematicians, and other scientists became professional investors managing billions." --David A. Krell, President and CEO, International Securities Exchange "How I Became a Quant should be must reading for all students with a quantitative aptitude.

Henriksson, Chief Investment Officer, Advanced Portfolio Management "Quants"--those who design and implement mathematical models for the pricing of derivatives, assessment of risk, or prediction of market movements--are the backbone of today's investment industry. As the greater volatility of current financial markets has driven investors to seek shelter from increasing uncertainty, the quant revolution has given people the opportunity to avoid unwanted financial risk by literally trading it away, or more specifically, paying someone else to take on the unwanted risk. How I Became a Quant reveals the faces behind the quant revolution, offering you?the?chance to learn firsthand what it's like to be a?quant today. In this fascinating collection of Wall Street war stories, more than two dozen quants detail their roots, roles, and contributions, explaining what they do and how they do it, as well as outlining the sometimes unexpected paths they have followed from the halls of academia to the front lines of an investment revolution.

Book Synopsis The Complete Poetry of James Hearst by : James Hearst
Download or read book The Complete Poetry of James Hearst written by James Hearst and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part of the regionalist movement that included Grant Wood, Paul Engle, Hamlin Garland, and Jay G. Sigmund, James Hearst helped create what Iowa novelist Ruth Suckow called a poetry of place. A lifelong Iowa farner, Hearst began writing poetry at age nineteen and eventually wrote thirteen books of poems, a novel, short stories, cantatas, and essays, which gained him a devoted following Many of his poems were published in the regionalist periodicals of the time, including the Midland, and by the great regional presses, including Carroll Coleman's Prairie Press. Drawing on his experiences as a farmer, Hearst wrote with a distinct voice of rural life and its joys and conflicts, of his own battles with physical and emotional pain (he was partially paralyzed in a farm accident), and of his own place in the world. His clear eye offered a vision of the midwestern agrarian life that was sympathetic but not sentimental - a people and an art rooted in place.
Book Synopsis Good Strategy Bad Strategy by : Richard Rumelt
Download or read book Good Strategy Bad Strategy written by Richard Rumelt and published by Currency. This book was released on 2011-07-19 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good Strategy/Bad Strategy clarifies the muddled thinking underlying too many strategies and provides a clear way to create and implement a powerful action-oriented strategy for the real world. Developing and implementing a strategy is the central task of a leader. A good strategy is a specific and coherent response to—and approach for—overcoming the obstacles to progress. A good strategy works by harnessing and applying power where it will have the greatest effect. Yet, Rumelt shows that there has been a growing and unfortunate tendency to equate Mom-and-apple-pie values, fluffy packages of buzzwords, motivational slogans, and financial goals with “strategy.” In Good Strategy/Bad Strategy, he debunks these elements of “bad strategy” and awakens an understanding of the power of a “good strategy.” He introduces nine sources of power—ranging from using leverage to effectively focusing on growth—that are eye-opening yet pragmatic tools that can easily be put to work on Monday morning, and uses fascinating examples from business, nonprofit, and military affairs to bring its original and pragmatic ideas to life. The detailed examples range from Apple to General Motors, from the two Iraq wars to Afghanistan, from a small local market to Wal-Mart, from Nvidia to Silicon Graphics, from the Getty Trust to the Los Angeles Unified School District, from Cisco Systems to Paccar, and from Global Crossing to the 2007–08 financial crisis. Reflecting an astonishing grasp and integration of economics, finance, technology, history, and the brilliance and foibles of the human character, Good Strategy/Bad Strategy stems from Rumelt’s decades of digging beyond the superficial to address hard questions with honesty and integrity.

An optional chapter on the quantum algorithm for factoring provides a unique peephole into this exciting topic. In addition to the text DasGupta also offers a Solutions Manual which is available on the Online Learning Center."Algorithms is an outstanding undergraduate text equally informed by the historical roots and contemporary applications of its subject.
