1) Its not yarn. This is by a senior member of the site who yesterday called me and said he'd like to post this story as another id. He has his reasons!


Why another id BL??
In any case, my bet still stands!! Will you ask him to take me up on it?? If nothing else it will be nice to meet someone like him.



You absolutely will WIN

Diogenes,

Like I said, he has his reasons.

Up the wager and I'll see if he's interested. You're dead sure its fake, right?? Go ahead and make your wager a 1000 bucks. Since you're sure about its fake it won't make a difference, right?

And all you others, how much are you willing to wager since you're so sure?? Let's make this idiocy worth the guy's time.

I'll then speak to him and see if he's interested. Send me personal messages about this if you're serious, until then this thread is locked.

On second thought, let's keep this unlocked.

This is a great example on how some people are just waiting to jump on others who want to write about their success.

So let's hear the bids, especially from the fence sitters whose only job here is a wiseass remark.

BL,

This is one area I will differ on with you. The whole purpose of this section is that readers can get a feeling that success is real happening to real people, and prferably, to known persons. Frankly, to me this story seems to be too good to be true - not only in the context of Canada, but anywhere in the world for that matter. I have seen many successful guys in my life but I have yet to come across someone getting so many job offers in a day/week.

However, I do not call it impossible - just beyond imagination that's all. So if this is real, why not he actually help the forum by disclosing who he is and give a chance for members to meet him/learn from him.

Another thing - he has missed most of the very important facts in the whole story like his age, qualificaitions, experience, any niche industry he worked in etc. etc. It is difficult to identify things unless such details are known.

By the way, hanving known you for sometime and having developed great regard for you, I would have been tempted to think that it was your own story - had I not known that you got married earlier this year!!:p

Why should I up my wager! Look man, I am reasonably certain it is crock!! But the most I am willing to waste on pursuing this issue is a 100 bucks. Rather than ask me up the wager, it makes more sense that this gentleman reveals himself and proves the story right. More than the 100 bucks that he will win, it is the goodwill and credibility that he will get that should be important. Add to that the immense benefit it will generate for all the so called "losers"?? And finally, I mean he has posted a story, and people are questioning its authenticity. Doesn't that itself require him to prove it??:D
Incidentally, did you notice how my other suspicion, that he has been on this site and has posted this one with a different userid, turned out to be correct??!!
Maybe, something of crenshaw is rubbing off on me!!:D :D :D

He has not mentioned his education, qualification and experiences. What he was doing in India?




this is very important as it gives an idea to other people of the same qualifications....
