I remember back in September of 2007. I was lying in the hospital after having my gall blatter taken out. I was behind on my rent so I decided to make up my mind to find how to solve my money problems. I had no idea of what it really took to become wealthy other than what I thought I knew (which was nothing). I purchased a few courses and read a few books, but I didn’t get anywhere. I was struggling pretty badly during that time; little did I know, it was about to get worse. Later on in November 2007,it was about 4:30am and I was on the highway about 40 miles out on my way to work. All of a suden, my old 1991 ford explorer began to slow down. I then realized that the transmission had blown itself out right in the middle of the highway.
There I was, stranded on the side of the highway with no road service or anything. I was embarrassed, and extremely furious! I remember yelling and cursing out my wife when I called her about not having a car to come and pick me up. She then came an hour later with her mother and I don’t get along with her family at all! From that point on I had to rely on my mother-in-law to get back and forth to work. Now I have to depend on someone who can’t stand me and the feeling was mutual. I missed work that day and my boss was mad as hell because I drive an 18 wheeler for a living and the load wasn’t delivered to the customer the day it was scheduled to arrive.
I didn’t have to worry about my boss or my job for much longer they began to cut my hours down from 70 to 25 hours a week. From November of 2007 to July 2008, I barely made $250 a week, if any at all. The next thing I know, I received a letter from the company that they were closing the only location where I lived. So I ended up filing for unemployment benefits just to keep from getting put out of the house that I was renting. I am married with two kids and couldn’t find a job to save my life.
I was miserable, worried, confused, and extremely furious! I remembered by this time sitting in front of my computer surfing the web, just trying to calm my nerves, and typed into the search engine, black millionaires. I found this one particular site with so many urban black men giving their testimonies about where they came from and how they found a way to become successful. I saw a picture of this particular man who was dressed very sharp.I clicked on the audio, under his picture, and began to listen to him. He was talking about how bad his situation was at that time in his life and how he overcame his problems through learning how to invest in real estate. He said that he teaches people the process of how to invest in short sales. I’m thinking “yea right!” Sure, I heard all kinds of people talk about how their course would make you wealthy, but as I listened to this brother speak, he sounded very different from the rest.
His speech was raw, but yet intelligent and to the point. He sounded just like me, a brother from the inner city urban community. So I decided to search for him on the web and find out what he was about. I saw the website and found the number to his office and decided to give him a call. I remember the day like it was yesterday. It was October 18th 2008 on a Saturday. I was extremely nervous, but I figured what did I have to loose. I called the office and low and behold, It was Mr. James Bayfield himself that answered the phone. I knew it was him because I learned how his voice sounded from the audios. I told him that I was Marlon from Detroit and he spoke to me as if he knew me from before. He was very easy to talk to and I enjoyed listening to him because he calmed my spirit. Mr. Bay spoke to me for about an hour that day, and he made me laugh the whole time.
I began to tell Mr. Bay that I was just an uneducated, unemployed truck driver, but he didn’t care. That didn’t matter to him at all. I told him that I wanted to buy his program. He told me that if I purchased the DVDs, and showed him that I was dedicated, that he would teach me everything I needed to know to become successful in life. I did what he said and he kept his word and began to coach me right away. Not only about real estate, but life as well. I just happen to catch him at the right time. I have to admit, I was extremely lucky. He told me that I was going to learn a lot, but I had no idea what I was in store for. The next thing I know,he gave me a list of supplies and tools to get and where to get them. Tools like an invoice book, blackberry phone, and what types of online accounts to set up. I can’t believe it, a blackberry phone!
Then Mr. Bay began to teach me mental and spiritual exercises to do everyday. No matter what kind of drama is going on in my life, these everyday exercises began to get me fired up about learning the blueprint to success. Mr. Bay even made a special recording for me to listen to while I make my way through the day. This helped to lift my spirit up very, very high. Donald Trump, Carlton Sheets, or Robert Allen wouldn’t have done that for me! I remember telling Mr. Bay that I hated being married and was even yelling and cursing at my wife and kids. After all of that, Mr.Bay didn’t give up on me. He continued to coach me and put me in the right frame of mind. It has only been 7 months and I feel like i am on top of the world. Through Mr.Bay I found the love for my life, my kids, and my wife.
Mr. Bay has taken time out of his busy schedule to coach me anywhere from 4 to 6 times a week, and sometimes 7 days a week. Like I said before, I am extremely lucky! So far everything that Mr. Bay has taught me has worked to and beyond perfection. Here is an example of what I am talking about. My landlord let the house I am currently living in go into foreclosure and he has lost the house to the lender. I was worried to death about having a place for my family and I to live. Mr. Bay showed me a foolproof technique not only to keep us in the house, but also how to make a big profit.He taught me how to take a disadvantage and make it into an extreme advantage!
What I am saying is, no matter what point you are at in your life, even if being uneducated and unemployed, Mr. Bay will put you in the game and on top of the game of life. This is not some reality show where 10 people compete and only 1 person can win. If Mr.Bay has 10 students, he will see to it that all 10 will win! If it weren’t for mr. Bay, I would have lost my freedom and my family. Now I am on my way to the top to stay, and as Mr. Bay Would say “Get Your Life Back!”
