Turn A Single $100 Investment Into A $2,000-A-Week Profit Machine
In the next seven days, 4,589 people will leave their jobs, never go back… and have all the money they will ever need.
I would tell you that these people are “very lucky,” but the fact of the matter is that there is no luck involved.
It’s happening everywhere. Ordinary people – including people who never finished school – starting their own businesses…and making in the neighborhood of $40,000…$60,000…even $100,000 or more a year.
Even though all these people are “ordinary” in some ways, one thing is certainly “out of the ordinary” about them:
Many used the same secret to start a business on less than $100. You can do it, too. Here’s how…

Notes From Michael Masterson’s Blog: Hiring the "Right" Employees for an Info Business
More than 600 people attended Agora Inc.’s Christmas party this year. It took place at the Engineer’s Club in downtown Baltimore, where Agora’s seven Baltimore-based publishing divisions are housed in seven turn-of-the-century mansions.
Everything (the building, the decorations) and everybody (employees, their spouses, and some friends) was sparkling for the annual event. Although there is a definite skew toward youthfulness (it looked like about 70 percent of those attending were younger than 35), the defining characteristic of the crowd was its cultural, religious, ethnic, and lifestyle diversity.
AI has never had a policy of recruiting for diversity, yet its employee base boasts representatives from just about every minority group you could find in a dictionary of political correctness. I like to think it’s because AI’s leaders have never been interested in what their employees look like, dress like, or do in their spare time. What matters is getting the job done. At AI, the job is creating and selling good ideas, and so AI’s offices are full of people who are, on the one hand, smart and opinionated and, on the other hand, cooperative and goal-oriented.
Those are good qualities to look for when you are building an information-based business. You need smart people with ideas to stay ahead of the competition. And you need those people to be cooperative and goal-oriented so they can work together to make the business grow.

How to Sell Movie Ideas to Hollywood
As I introduced myself to the executive in charge of project development, I could sense that she was getting ready to pass on mine before I even had a chance to tell her what it was about. But when I explained that I had acquired the life rights to the story of one of the principals … suddenly, she was all ears.
In the world of film and television, there is a curious paradox. Everyone in the business is clamoring for a great idea, but it seems nobody wants to hear yours – unless, that is, it’s based on a true-life story that catches their interest.
In ETR #1866, I explained that one of the easiest ways to break into Hollywood is by selling an idea based on a true-life story. There was an overwhelming response from readers interested in learning more – so, today, I’m going to give you some of the details.
True-life stories are virtual goldmines in Hollywood. You’ve probably seen this type of movie many times. The advertising for it will say something like "Based on a true story." And, let’s face it, those words pique your interest. I know when I watch extraordinary events on film or television and I know they really happened, I am enthralled.
The almost universal appeal of a true-life story is what Hollywood counts on when they promote those movies. And that can open doors that might otherwise be closed to you.
If you find a good, true story, you can get it turned into a movie – without knowing anyone in the business. But before you start making phone calls, there are some basics about acquiring true-life story rights that you need to understand.
A movie can sometimes be made about a story that’s in the public domain (like one based on a major legal case where the facts are a matter of public record) without obtaining anyone’s life rights. But even then, there are reasons to do it.
Basically, the purchaser of someone’s life rights to their story is obtaining a release that protects him from a lawsuit based on defamation or invasion of privacy. Sometimes the seller might also agree to provide additional information that might not be otherwise available.
Let’s say, for example, that you wanted to produce a film about a famous murder trial. Although there may be quite a bit of information in the public record, you could get sued if you produced a film that offended one of the people involved. Additionally, without the cooperation of at least one of the principals to fill in holes that aren’t in the public record, it would be much harder to produce an accurate portrayal of the events surrounding the trial.
If, on the other hand, one of the principals signs an agreement authorizing you to produce such a film – and cooperates by providing you with a detailed account of his story – you will have protected yourself against the possibility of his suing you. At the same time, you probably will have improved the quality of the movie.
Now, you may be thinking that you’re not in a financial position to acquire life rights that you may not be able to sell. Don’t worry – you can "option" those rights. That is, you can pay a smaller amount (as little as one dollar) for the option to buy those rights within a specified period of time. You can then sell your position to an established producer.
How much can you sell it for? According to entertainment attorney Mark Litwak, that varies depending on the appeal of the story. "For a TV network broadcast movie, it might be $50,000 to several hundred thousand dollars. For feature films, it could be two times or more that amount. If the subject is famous, the figure could be considerably higher."
In other words, if you do nothing else but find one viable true-life story each year that you can sell to Hollywood, you could potentially make an annual income of between $50,000 and $500,000.
Here’s the basic process:
- Find a captivating real-life story that might be able to be turned into a good movie. Perhaps something from your own life or from the experience of someone you know. Or maybe a "human-interest" story you read about in the newspaper or see on a TV news program.
- Acquire the life rights to the story from one or more of the principals.
- Sell the rights to a producer who will make the project.
Getting a meeting with the producer is going to be the hardest part. But once you get in the door, the fact that you have life rights to the story are almost certain to capture his or her interest.
When I met with the development executive I told you about earlier, all I had to do was mention that I had the life rights of the principal of the story, and she wanted to see more. I provided her with a one-page synopsis of the story, and I am now waiting to see if an offer will be made. Since I’m a screenwriter, if an offer is made, I’m going to try to negotiate a deal to write the screenplay.
But keep in mind that I was only able to get to this point because I had something that was of value: the rights to an interesting, true-life story.
Also keep in mind that you don’t need to be a screenwriter to sell a true-life story. All you need is the idea. And since good ideas alone are hard to protect legally, you also need the life rights of a principal in order to maintain control.
With the legal rights in your hands, you have a real chance of selling your hot idea to Hollywood.

A Big Fat Problem With Testosterone
For years, I’ve noticed that men at my clinic who are overweight have lower levels of testosterone. And weight gain often goes hand-in-hand with rising estrogen. Too much estrogen then interferes with testosterone – leading to depression, loss of muscle mass and bone density, feminization of older men, and loss of sexual drive and performance. Now a clinical study is shedding some additional light.
A just-published study in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism of about 1,700 men found that weight gain – as little as 30 pounds – caused as much testosterone loss as if the men had aged 10 years.
Men naturally lose testosterone as they age. But these numbers tell us that the drop that comes from weight gain can give a 40-year-old the hormonal profile of a man 10 years his senior. That should be a powerful motivator for you to stay lean.
If you are overweight, you may be able to reverse some of the accompanying "side effects" by boosting your testosterone and getting rid of excess estrogen. You can start right away by making a few changes in your diet.
To lower your estrogen, eat lots of cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower. If veggies aren’t your thing, go to your local nutrition store and pick up a bottle of DIM. (diindole methane), a concentrated plant extract that metabolizes excess estrogen. Start with 100 mg twice a day.
To boost your testosterone, add a zinc supplement to your diet. Zinc maximizes testosterone production, prolongs the life of testosterone in your blood, and increases the sensitivity of testosterone receptors. Most men don’t realize it, but over 60 percent of them have zinc deficiencies. Start with 30 mg a day.

Networking Tip: The Elevator Pitch
By Bob Cox
Successful individuals are first, last, and always salespeople. They are constantly selling themselves and their ideas to investors, management, co-workers, vendors, and even their families.
An opportunity to sell yourself and/or your ideas can come up on the subway, in the checkout line at the grocery store, after your yoga class – just about anywhere. To be ready to make a useful connection at any time, it’s a good idea to be prepared with a short (one minute is ideal) self-promotional speech.
Known as an "elevator pitch" (because you can deliver it in the time it takes for a short elevator ride), it is meant to engage the interest of a potential contact/prospect.
Aside from introducing yourself and what you do, the elevator pitch has three important components:
- What you can offer the other person
- What you can offer the other person … and
- What you can offer the other person
As with any sales pitch, make sure your "offer" is about the benefits it has for the listener. The goal is to convince the other person to want to do business with you.
Practice is crucial to delivering your pitch in a concise and effective manner. Write it down. Read it out loud. Commit it to memory. Then, while looking in the mirror, practice, practice, practice. Remember, one minute is the length you’re aiming for, so don’t forget to time yourself.
Here’s how to deliver your elevator pitch to a likely contact/prospect:
- Have your business card in an easily accessible place.
- Make eye contact and smile.
- Introduce yourself. Ask the individual what he does for a living. Now … it’s "show time"!
- Present your pitch – with enthusiasm – in one minute.

Word to the Wise: Apocryphal
Something that’s "apocryphal" (uh-POK-ruh-ful) – from the Greek for "hidden" – is of doubtful authenticity.
Example (as used by Kathleen Jones in A Passionate Sisterhood): "He always told romanticised apocryphal stories of his ancestry, sometimes a bastard grandfather, brought up on the parish, sometimes ‘a weaver, half poet and half madman.’"

August 16, 2008
Would you please help me? I have good ideas for movies (true events in my own life). I have the rights to these stories.
GENERATIONAL CURSES
I would want the names of the real people changed and where it took place changed.Not everyone believes in Generational curses.
I married into a family that had alcoholism in its root. Out of 4 males 3 also became alcoholics.
There was abuse.
Out of 7 couples when I joined the family only 1 couple is alive today. And out of 7 siblings only 2 are alive today. They all died young; and three of the offspring died terrible deaths–one committed suicide; one died from sniffing spray that cooks use, another died from an unknown source.
I just found out about this opportunity–please do not use this without my consent because my precious child had a catastrophicall brain injury over 3 years ago. God is healing her. I have wracked my brain to find a way to get her a pool for her house so she can relearn how to walk again.I haven’t even raised $2K yet. It’s almost impossible to raise funds for 1 person.
Would you please please please give this idea your BEST BEST EVER ATTENTION?
My child is 21, and her desire is to walk again and help others.
Sincerely,
Marie Heroux
I have so many ifeas,one of which is a 90percent fiction and 10% true story.I will sell this idea for 1 million dollars.800 thousand as downpayment.i hope you will agree because this is the first of its kind servaschris@yahoo.com

i hav a great idea for a blow out guarantee movie, please contact me on email
My idea has nothing much to do with a real life story. This I thought of myself.
The story plot is about a 18-year-old boy, named Johnath, who falls in love with a nother 18-year-old girl, named Elaine. But when Johnath discovers he is half demon( a demon is a person that has great strenght and speed and turns into a beastly animal) thatis the only half bred in the world he must go to high measures to save New York City from hidden Demons along side three demon slayers.
Johnath- 18, boy, main character,can turn into a large saber tooth panther
Elaine- 18, girl, Is outgoing and moves to New York.
Johnath’s family is of his mom, stepfather, and two younger half-sisters.
the three demon slayers are in their 30s and are two guys and one woman.
If you do not like that idea, I have pleanty of more different idea where that came from!
horros
romance
comedy
action
fiction

Hello there,
I read your posts and I am really interested in contacting you. I have a good idea for a movie, its an idea that will defintely attract plenty of people, since its addressing a topic where is no absolute truth! It cant be considered as fiction and it cant be considered as a true life! It may happen at any time, and it would never do. I am 100% sure that if anyone can help me market it, producers will be interested in. I am offering 30% upon success. Let me know please if you are interested.
Infact, i never knew i am a writer untill i wrote this action-satisfaction movie, which can not be performed by an actionless actor. it’s nothing but a captivating story of a man born in usa by a soldier who always foresee the future. he saw that his son will grow to kill him someday, so he left for brazil as a head of a slavery camp supported secretely by a high authority in the usa who could not reject the directives of an unscrupulous man who trained him. the soldier’s son grew up been a security agent and was assgined to protected a woman as a bodyguard from death from the hand of this unscrupulous man. the promise was ‘no blood’ but he was helpless when he received 11 bullets and the woman was sold into slavery in brazil. after years when he recovered, he set out for rescue mission from brazil where his father is the head. did he know his father? how exactly does the story looks like? untill when the story is read or else it falls into the hands of those that have not the equipments. the story is worthy to be a seosonal film, please don’t let me feel discouraged. helping me is just an investment.

Hey,
My name is Jamal Butt.I am from Pakistan.I wrote a film story which revolves around the life of an air force pilot James.He is a good pilot but once as he is flying over populated area as a technical fault appears in his F-16 bomber.Control tower says as if he ejects extra fuel tanks down then he can safe the bomber otherwise the plane will blast.He does not want to eject the extra fuel tanks on the populated area but he has to obey the order of control tower.So he ejects the extra fuel tanks on the populated area and flies back to the base.Extra fuel tanks damage a house badly.Now the conscious of James blames him that he did wrong.So in the end does he solve this conflict as he did right or wrong this I will tell you if you want to buy my story.

Looking back my life has been like watching a film unfolding..Joy on finding Love, heartbreak on losing her through suicide and the joy and turmoil of bring up two baby boys in a country where the term widower was not even recognised! I would like to see my story in film form and to ask everyone who watches it to walk with me through my worst days of being mother and father to two wonderful boys…and my best days!!
I ABSOLUTELY WANT TO RUN THIS BY HOLLYWOOD!! Here it goes.
Will Ferrell and Alec Baldwin play two brothers who have never been married. They form a club where divorced singles can come to, in an attempt to find true love.
I would like to tell the story about my sister and her 2 children. Their home was broken into in 1979 and they were killed. Her husband was charged with the murders. He was in jail for 11 months, then they found out who did it. He is still in prison.
I DO BELIEVE YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO DO SOMETHING GREAT WITH MY STORY.
I HOPE YOU WILL RESPOND TO ME AND GET ME ON MY WAY!!!

Hello,
I see people on this website leaving posts about selling their ideas to producers for $1,000,000 and $500,000, the prices for movies are ridiculous and the truth of the matter is that a lot more then half of these ideas cannot be used. You see, I am 14 years old and I am a freshman in high school. Now you say, “Oh, a freshman in high school. He has no idea of real life struggles to make a true story-based movie pitch.” People have no clue how interesting and terrific our ideas can be. I had a dream several months back. A nightmare. Images in my head that I never want to relive again. I do not have an idea for a horror movie, but it is a drama and emotionally gripping movie. I am interested in business, I am trying to start a company. At age 14 this is highly difficult as you can imagine. I can’t get a real job by law, so I am forced to work under the table baby sitting and mowing lawns for three dollars an hour. I let my friend use my dream for an english paper and they wrote everything down. Her english teacher is an ex-movie critique and wrote in bold red ink on the top of her paper, “Incredible story. I could see it as a great movie.” I will sell you my idea for no more than a measly $7,500. I need a bare minimum of $3,500 to lift my company off the ground, but seeing as taxes takes a large portion of goods, I am going to need to sell it for more then $3,500. I do not want to rob any movie producing company or be greedy, so I think $7,500 is an extraordinary price, considering some sell theirs for $1,000,000. I am always cooperative for negotiation on an even lower price then $7,500. You can contact me at (xxx)xxx-xxx or you can e-mail me at xxx@xxx.com. Thank you, I hope you will consider giving me a shot.
