Out of the loop. I'm back

I haven't been a member of Quixtar for a long time now (roughly 3 months).
To be honest with you, while I never created any serious profit from this venture, I can understand why it's such a cool thing to be a part of. To be honest I actually miss it. It was the whole idea of hope and determination and drive to succeed. Above all else it taught me that success is truly out there, perhaps even around the next corner. It's really all about the mindset of succeeding. I came out of the experience with the mindset and the drive to make sure that in the near future I will be successful. Who knows, Quixtar is changing its ways and improving on itself now. I never said I would swear it off forever. I may be drawn back to it in the future.

My Enthusiasm!

So far so good.
I have been interviewing my friends consistently and consistently they ave been interested. After giving the Quixtar plan further thought it has occurred to me that the system does work. You have to work your ass off to make it big, but the opportunity is in fact out there if you want to take it. It IS POSSIBLE to make 700,000 dollars a year. They arnet lying. I plan to make this system work knowing it is real. I cant imagine retiring at an age like 23 years old!

The business ownership tax deductions are a bonus. I get 50.5 cents a mile for all business related travel as well as toll and parking reimbursement, not to mention a vast array of additional deductions. If i bought a laptop and use it for business i get a deduction. ANY MONEY I put into this business entitles me to some sort of deduction! My tax check will be enormous come next year. Hopefully ill be making an extra 20k by next year. Who knows. Frankly it comes down to a test of charisma and motivation.

If someone told you you had the opportunity to retire within 5 years from now, would you take it? would you not work until otherwise unable, putting in every spare moment of time into something that could help you be free so quickly? Quixtar, with your full dedication, can offer that.

Personally I dont want to work till im 80. I want to walk out of my job one day around my 23rd-24th birthday and drive to the nearest airport......

and never see the state of maine, maybe even the U.S ever again.

Summer conference 2008

Just a couple of days ago I attended the "Bryan summer Conference 2008" held down in Danvers Mass. I was told it was pretty much going to change my life, and the 130 dollars i spent to go down there were entirely refundable if i decided it wasnt for me.

Why not just get a first hand experience of what it's all about then?

I mostly liked it. I slept on a floor for two nights in a row, but it felt right. The only thing that made me unconfortable was the high number of clearly christian people who would occasionally talk about "the lord and savior jesus christ" and how great he was. Yuck. Honestly that was a pretty big downer, but I just left the enormous function room when someone decided to have an extended talk about fairy tales. Additionally, some of these people make closer to a million dollars than not (and some far more) so its not my place to even try and call them out on something like that.

I learned a few valuable pointers about the business. It was really just motivational. We were continually asked "are you fired up?!", and I saw through that entirely.

50% educational, 20% fun, 30% bullshit. Not too bad for a 130bucks right?

All in all, im going to try and make this business work for me for now. If I could retire at 23 years old (3 years from now) then I would work 120 hours a week to make sure I get there.

Im not ready to fail at this.

The Beggining

There are so many skeptical people out there.
This is Thomas here, creating the very first of what i hope to be many entries on my personal journey through the Quixtar corportation. Quixtar, known by many people, seems to have a marred reputation, often times viewed as "just another scam" or a "Pyramid scheme."

I love the idea of Entrepreneurism. I go forth and create something on my own accord, on my own time. What I can put in is what I can get out. But while the idea of owning your own business is a wonderful idea, there are so many get rich quick schemes and catchy but ultimately fallacious "roads to success" that finding something thats actually useful is more challenging than any other single part of the process.

Truth: I want my own business.

Just over a week and a half ago i was approached by a Quixtar representative. He had a lot of good things to say. We connected on many levels about individual business ownership. What he had to offer seemed too good to be true.

I was not going to be sold that easily. Could this just be another more elaborate way to trick me out of my hard earned money?
