Internet Millionaires? More Like 'The Rich Jerk'

Guest article by C. X

Rich Jerk!” I yelled as some twerp in a Maserati cut me off. A guy like that, I don’t care if he’s a millionaire or not, I wouldn't affiliate with him. They get to me, driving around like they think they’re the ultimate wealth package or something. Sheesh. And on winding roads like we have here around Rancho Sante Fe!?! That kind of black hat driving should be illegal.

The last time it happened I got to talking to my six boys about it—Mark Warren Jeff Paul Kelly Felix—none of us like to let the rich jerk us around. And we’re no losers. We’ve got mortgages, we know how to do business online.

I mean, I’m no Bill Gates or Donald Trump either —I don’t even know any millionaires—but it’s not like I see an Adsense ad about how to get rich and make money and instantly get out my wallet. I learned my lesson after that HYIP experience last year.

It’s like that Clickbank book telling how Tony Robbins got wealthy by using the secret Affiliate Project X. I mean, sure, I’d rather to get wealthy having affiliates like Joe Vitale, Dan Kennedy, Yanik Silver, Derek Gehl, Robert G. Allen than applying for government grants from some billionaire who runs richjerk.com, but the thing about making money is, you get paid. Perry Marshall, Corey Rudl, Jay Abraham, Kevin Trudeau, Vincent James—they know how to spot quick money, a money opportunity, and real business opportunities.

Which reminds me of a story. I was attending a luncheon at the Berkshire Hathaway a few months ago, when in walks Jim Edwards. I was astounded! Of all the entrepreneurs I admire, he’s one whose money making tips has helped put cash in my pocket. Rosalind Gardner, Stone “Make Me Money” Evans, David Vallieres, they all admire him.

He told us all about a few recent books he recommends—I hope I wrote these down right:
