I
don’t know about you folks, but it certainly seems to me
that each day that passes I get more and more junk mail.
Now, my sons, who are much younger, seem to get a pass on
the tons of medical stuff we receive at our house each and
every day. I’m certain there is some giant clearing house
somewhere that knows our exact ages and has done an
exhaustive study on when certain of our parts are destined
to wear out.



I am sick of receiving these eight and ten page magazines
that start off telling you the name of some ‘miracle’ herb
or ‘simple home remedy’ that will cure warts, acid reflux,
baldness and heart attacks. You start to read this
information only to find they have conveniently left off the
names of these wonder products. You have to subscribe to
some expensive ‘medical newsletter’ of the month club in
order to get all of the information. I just throw them away
without even looking at them anymore. The same as I used to
do with those magazine sweepstakes offers that were going
around years ago. How many useless magazines did we buy,
hoping that our name would be the lucky winner of that ten
million dollar prize? I still get a monthly magazine on golf
and I’ve played the game about five times in my entire life.
It goes in the trash as well. Who has time to read all of
that stuff?



It appears that the latest way to get me to open a letter is
to enclose some sort of little stickers or notepad. I am up
to my ears in these things. I have address stickers for
Valentines, Memorial Day, July Fourth, Labor Day and
certainly Christmas and Thanksgiving. The notepads you can
give away, but not the address stickers with little flags,
puppies and flowers and your name. No one but me can use
them. Nobody could possibly send out this many letters in a
year. Haven’t these people heard of e-mail?



As
always, I’ve been thinking about a home mail out that is
certain to get the attention of every living breathing
American in this country. What you need is the right
combination of get rich quick combined with a weight loss
product.



I am going to call my new book….”Peary Perry’s Guide to
Riches and Miracle Diet Plan”.



What I envision is a sure fire plan to work at home and
become fabulously wealthy in ninety days while losing fifty
pounds as well. The way I see it, if just a small fraction
of the overweight and broke people in this country buy my
book then I should be set for life. Imagine the kind of
testimonials I could have with before and after photos. You
always see those guys who are on the infomercials sitting on
their Rolls using a cell phone to call their broker or
pilot. I could do the same and show what my clients looked
like and how they were living before using my plan. Of
course, I’d have to do some research and come up with some
actual examples of ways that people could get rich in ninety
days. I’ll have to work on that part of it. I’d thought
about just listing that as a chapter entitled “Save your
money” but that might not work for most people in that short
of a period of time. It might be a little too simple. I’ll
need more details if this is destined to be a best seller.



The diet part is the easiest since there are hundreds of
methods to lose weight. First you have to lead into the
major causes of being overweight, which I have researched
and can tell you from personal experience is caused mostly
by just one factor.



We eat too much.



My remedy for that is to cut down on the number of calories
we are taking in on a daily basis. People who don’t eat
much, weigh less.



Secondly, I’d have to give the reader some advice on what
kind of exercise they need to be performing in order to lose
weight. Here again, from my experience it boils down to one
thing, which is simply, get off the couch and do something,
anything. Walking, hiking, fishing, bowling, baseball,
riding a bicycle, swimming, wash the car, I don’t care. Just
so you’re moving and burning some of those calories you are
storing form those cookies and cakes you ate over the
holidays.



The third section of this highly informative book would be
some simple hints at what not to do. These would include
suggestions such as, don’t spend all of your money; don’t
buy things you don’t need. Be frugal. Baking cookies is not
considered exercise. Eating a cupcake while playing tennis
is not good for you as well. Watching an exercise video will
not build muscle.



I can see how this could prove to be a very lucrative
venture if done properly and could lead to some additional
sequels.



Perhaps my second version could be along the lines of “Sell
Real Estate in your spare time while losing fat and gaining
muscle.”



It might work; let me know if you have any suggestions.
