It just wasn't in the stars in Sylva as there was not a hot enough market of people with disposable income and honestly, I wanted to get away from the place as quick as possible and get back.  Since I'm back in Greenville, I can still go out to Thornblade and do some in-home training for 150.00 an hour easy.  However, my present job keeps my very busy as well as my remaining ecommerce sites.  


Of course, if something ever happens, I'll definitely go back to training people.  The great thing about Greenville is that people have a lot of disposable income and a lot of obesity....the perfect storm for trainers.  That's why people like Trey Hodges, Charles Dixon, etc stay put.
Never. If I saw you near my neighbors house I would be calling the police to report a home invasion.

So, let me get this straight. You are part of a 'mastermind group'?

Vince, why does your present job keep you so busy? Do you take work home with you?

Yes, I do take work home on occasion although I work very hard to get all of it done by Friday so my weekends are free.  I've also been placed in charge of a few things as well and I've taken on a couple of projects as well.  The good thing is that I'm back to being financially secure, and I'm back in the middle class where I deserve to be.  I can go out, eat a nice meal, watch a movie, and sit out on my patio and enjoy life

You sound like a chick. Shut up and grow a nut that way you'll at least have one. Man up, sissy.
So you're saying you like putting nuts in your mouth, and see if you can make them grow?:-X
