I purchased a domain for a new website called AlternativeInvestmentSeminars.com. This domain may launch a new business, one that I can use to generate more resources. Some may question what qualifies me to provide any guidance on investments. After all, I only recently completed 26 years in prison. Ironically, that experience gives me a unique perspective on thinking about long-term plans. When I began serving my sentence, back in 1987, I started visualizing the type of person I wanted to become when I would walk out. Those visions gave way to plans. I had to execute those plans for each of the 9,500 days that I lived as a federal prisoner. Such discipline qualified me to speak about visualizing the long term, and delaying immediate gratification for a better life in the future. Carole and I are still on that plan. In any event, during these seminars I will design, I’ll encourage others to think about their life in years and decades ahead. Then I’ll propose some investment ideas that may contribute to visions others have for happiness.
