Sailing home...

I read your comments, thanks for that little present Renae! I love Dani, she will help me and our team become millionaires with this home based business. Eric, you are absolutely right and I am working on that Kadrillionaire thing. There is not a waking hour that I am not thinking of a way to leverage myself and my income again. The amazing thing Eric, I believe anyone with average intelligence can do the exact same things. Especially you, as soon as you stop thinking and actually start doing you will begin to become wealthy beyond your wildest dreams. When I met you in Orlando I was impressed with how much of myself I saw in you. You even have that problem with procrastination just like I do! OK, so I have big fat lazy streak I will admit that. I over come that procrastination issue by developing deadlines and goals for myself. We have even chosen girlfriends who are very similar, both being very driven and entrepreneurial spirited. We even met both of our girlfriends online; how crazy is that! In short, I suspect you too will be a Kadrillionaire one of these days as well.

Ok, back to cruising. I woke up yesterday morning expecting to be in Costa Maya. I felt the boat was still rocking just a little bit so I assumed we weren't in port yet. Then Carmen leaned over and told me that we were not going to Costa Maya. Evidently, the water was too rough. There was a tropical depression forming off the Coast of Costa Maya and the water was too rough to safely dock the ship. So we are spending two days aboard this floating resort heading back to Tampa. Yep it's a tough life, but somebody has got to do it.

Speaking of a tough life, I was just chatting with the guy beside me here in the library. His name is Nathan, I had met him playing Craps. Nathan and I had lost some money to together and won some. This was the first time we actually had spoke other than giving high fives at the craps table when someone had a good roll. He was just telling me that he recently retired this past year from Morgan Stanley and it was the best decision he has ever made. He looks young to be retired but; he said he had been there for 35 years and they gave him an opportunity to retire early and he jumped on it. He said retirement has been great he has a lot of free time and he can travel whenever he wants. Nathan, seems to be a nice guy and I don't mean any offense. But, thank God, I will never have to wait until retirement to start enjoying life. I will not be punching a time clock from 9 to 5 for 35 years making someone else rich. Heck, I am 26 years old and am successfully self employed in a business that I can literally take anywhere. This cruise has actually been the most challenging place I have ever worked my business and I received an email and a receipt earlier where April in NJ upgraded to Level II while I have been away. Way to go April!! Now I want to ask you reader, what other home based business can a 26 year old on a 7 day Western Caribbean Cruise earn $2,000!? I made money while on vacation!

Just to catch you up to speed on my gambling exploits. Yesterday, was dismal at first. I quickly lost $200.00 on Craps and Blackjack; late last night I lost another $100.00 in about 15 minutes at the Craps table. I decided to take my last hundred that I was going to use for the evening to the Blackjack table. I ended up leaving the table with $400.00 so I guess that made up for my earlier loses during the day. So far on this trip I brought $1,000 for gambling, shopping, ect. I have paid most of my expenses so far on the cruise and I still have $900.00 to take home. EXCEPT, this is our last day at sea and the casino is open all day and all evening. So my project for today is to take $400.00 back to the casino and turn it into $1,000 at the Blackjack table with a specific betting strategy that I have been using with good success. I haven't played much Blackjack on this cruise quite honestly because I was having a lot of fun just playing Craps. I have more control over my personal play when playing Blackjack so my chances of reaching $1,000 is greater. I will keep you posted on this live experiment.

Keep it up Jackie, you are going to make money gamgling and working part time on your cruise. I am going to take one of my 3 day cruises shortly so I can go play some Craps and Blackjack. Have a great ending of your trip and I might be able to meet up with you when you get back in Tampa. Talk to you later.
