Here it is…last night I talked about paying it forward and having heard Ben Bernanke – Chairman of the Federal Reserve on 60 minutes saying the banks are not going to be allowed to fail and effectively argue that “we cannot allow money to contract so we’ll continue to print more”, I’m even more convinced that all the small business people, the entrepreneurs and the creators on the planet need to “Pay It Forward” as it’s quite clear that those in certain jobs have very little idea of what goes on in the real world.
I mean, does anyone seriously believe that the Government and the people in the banking world can get us out of this mess? You know the one that they created.
So who’s left? Who else is going to get us out of this?
My answer: The people who got the country out of the mess it was in after the Great Depression. Us.
President Roosevelt poured billions into the economy during the Great Depression…all we got was 25% unemployment and more misery until people started to slowly learn about giving other people value. They started asking the question: How can I serve other people? A completely new attitude formed and slowly but surely things started to turn around.
John D. Rockefeller said that “There are days when many are discouraged. In the 93 years of my life, depressions have come and gone. Prosperity has always returned and will again.” It did.
If we are to learn from the past we have to understand that the people who got us in to trouble cannot get us out of trouble. We have to take action ourselves.
So here’s what I’m going to do to help our economy… I’m going to offer a few lucky folks a FREE 4 day / 3 night vacation in one of our vacation homes.
Am I crazy? You may be asking yourself “How can giving people a free vacation help the economy?”
It’s a good question but here’s how I look at it; By doing this, this will then allow the lucky winners to spend the money they would have spent on their vacation in other places… thus helping others in business and those who work for businesses. Further, vacations also help people recharge and come back refreshed so this will allow them to clear their minds and to feel that they can also contribute. They will be able to ask themselves “Now, how can I pay it forward…how can I serve others?”
So yes, that’s why I’m doing this and a FREE 4 day / 3 night vacation in Orlando is my way of contributing. All you have to do to stand a chance of winning is to go to http://twitter.com/FloridaLeisure and press “Follow” and you’ll immediately be entered in a draw that could win you a luxurious vacation in one of our fantastic homes.
For every 5,000 followers we get, we will draw one lucky winner and they’ll get to stay in one of our 3 bedroom / 2 bathroom homes with a private swimming pool where they’ll feel like a King or Queen on vacation.
But better still…a three bedroom home will sleep six people so they can bring who they like with them. This will mean that more people will have money to spend in other areas!
For those that have never stayed in a vacation home before, it’s really just like having your own “home away from home” when on vacation. Our homes each have a fully equipped kitchen and a comfortable lounge or sitting area with some homes even having two or three such areas so everyone has their own space if they want it. The homes all have completely separate bedrooms and each has a television so adults and kids can watch their own programs without fighting over the TV set. Some of our homes even have a games room which can have a pool table, table tennis (ping pong), air hockey, fuss ball, etc.
Best of all, our guests really love the private swimming pool that each home has. It’s just so much better than having to share a pool with other people and having to trek down long hotel corridors to reach it…because it’s right outside the living area…no more than a few paces away! Also, in some homes we have Jacuzzi’s or hot tub’s and there’s really nothing better at the end of a long day trekking around a theme park than coming home and climbing into the warm hot tub to relax with a nice beverage.
So here’s your chance to win… just visit us at http://twitter.com/FloridaLeisure and press “Follow” and you could be a lucky winner. We hope you are so that between us we can help jump start the economy again.
Here’s a quick reminder of the rules:
Go there right now and “follow” us … it won’t take you more than a few seconds and before you know it, you could be on the way to sunny Orlando. Hope to see you soon.
Have a great day!
