I was challenged by the Los Angeles Times to live up to my claim. They sent me to San Francisco with a L.A. Times reporter by my side. In 57 hours I bought 6 properties from 4 separate owners—and gave the reporter $20 in change. The headline in the paper read:

Buying Home Without Cash: Boastful Investor

Accepts Time Challenge—and Wins.

When I wrote my second book, Creating Wealth, people once again doubted if it was possible for ordinary people to create wealth. I made a bold claim: “Send me to any unemployment line. Let me select someone who is broke, out of work and discouraged. In two days time I’ll teach this person the secrets of wealth. And in 90 days, he or she will be back on their feet, with $5,000 cash in the bank, never to set foot in an unemployment line again.” I was challenged by the former mayor of St. Louis, Missouri to come to his city and select people directly from the unemployment lines of St. Louis. I selected three people—two women and a man. In 90 days they all had incredible stories to tell. One of the women went on to earn $100,000 in the next 12 months.

I’ve done similar challenges in other major cities—Washington D.C., Miami, Boston, San Diego, New York—all with similar results. I have never lost a challenge.

The purpose of this special report is to share with you the details of my most recent challenge. I call it:

“The Internet Challenge” Here is how it happened….

In the early months of the year 2000 I was approached by representatives of one of the world’s leading producers of infomercials: The Guthy/Renker Corporation. They wanted to create a new infomercial marketing an information product based upon my most successful money making strategies. They called the show: Real Streams of Cash. In writing the script for the show, the producers encouraged me to find testimonials of real people who were using my strategies and techniques with great success. This was not difficult—there are thousands of success stories of people using my system. In addition, they wanted to show some actual film footage of someone actually making money using my systems. I explained that the most dramatic way to demonstrate how quickly a person can generate HUGE streams of cash was to shoot some LIVE footage of me making money on the Internet. I said… “Sit me at the keyboard of any computer in the world with access to the Internet. And in 24 hours, I’ll earn at least $24,000 CASH.” The producers of the show were skeptical. They wanted me to lower the figure. They reasoned, “A thousand dollars in 24 hours is still a lot of money to the average person.” I disagreed. I just had a gut feeling
