I’m going to be 69 in June!
Very early in my life (about age 4) I found an interest in MAGIC. A friend of my brothers made a quarter disappear and pulled it out from behind my ear.
I was amazed and intrigued.
What is real and what is perceived as real?
What is a definition of “real” that we all agree on?
What about all this talk about AI. Is it “real” or is it “artificial“? The answer depends on the belief of each individual person.

This “Affiliate Marketing” thingy…
We build our website, post on our blogs, make a few commissions and… POOF — it’s all gone. (I was in a program years ago and got one of those “You got a commission“ emails and when I checked my back office, nothing was there. I believed, then I didn’t. In just seconds.
I believe… the “Affiliate Model” is the simplest way to earn passive income, recurring and scalable income.
I believe… that perfect “alignment“ of a product and a prospect is mandatory in making long lasting sales.
I believe… that “TRUST“ is vital in a monetary transaction.
I believe… that in-person activity accelerates the transaction process. And that online activity is trusted faster showing up on video authentically.
So where do I go at age 69? What do I do? What drives me? What are My interests?
Is it MAGIC?
When should I retire?
Or should I?
Perhaps it’s time to ReFire‼️ 🔥
