The Deal Fell Through

Well, it looks like you’re stuck with me after all. My deal to sell TTZ Media fell through. It turns out that company in Toronto wasn’t as rich as I thought. Their check bounced. Oh well. I didn’t really want to travel around the world anyway.

I guess I should round up all the numbers and post my March blog income results. I bet you’re wondering if I beat last month’s $7,011.05 figure. You’ll find out in a few hours.

Happy April Fool’s day everyone!

nice 7k for a month, and nice april fools joke lol

I was happy for you. Who doesn't want to make so much money that you don't have to work anymore.

Sorry to hear that, well congrats on the 7k a month

When I saw this post last week, I told my girlfriend about it, and her response was "Mike, it's April Fools". She's a reader also.

blabEditor

That was very evil

I still can't get over it -- I was this close to getting beached on Gullible's Island LOL.

In a way I'm glad it fell through because of the resources that are on this site. but I'm sorry that you lost it :(

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

great joke- while I do hope you realize your dreams-and I have only digested 3% of the things I am learning from you-i am selfishly glad its not yet.

And by the way- I am Julie N Adams-nice to meet you.

Your quoted liberally down here in sunny florida, even my elderly parents know all about your blog.You have opened my eyes to the possibility of being successful. I can DO this!! Thankyou for the inspirations.

:shock: John you are so evil on April Fool's Day. :lol:

All I can say is hahaha for now!

I would be quite surprised if you hadn't posted an April Fools joke..

You silly pranksters!! You'll never get me, though.

Very funny! Glad you didn't actually leave us.

TTz Media... phenomenon :D

Could've smelled this April Fools a mile away

Happy April Fools to you John :)

haaa! Good one.

Congrats on the sale John!

john is soo mean! :evil:

Actually, I really wanted to get that one deal done for you. I am sorry it did not work out well. Your blog was OK. It was good while it lasted , right?

lol.. ouch. Actually, when I saw that entry, it's already 2nd of April here. Oh well...
Blame the timezone :evil:

Timezone is really messing things up :neutral:

Hahahaha.. go to philippines! it's great! +8 timezone LOL

Interesting.....VERY interesting....lol.

Happy April Fools!

Great joke! In Spain fool day is December 28th.

I'll keep that in mind, right between Xmas and NY..

I would like to set people on fire too.. :twisted:

Actually I did that once.. It didn't turn out to be a good idea :sad:

Yea people burn kinda quickly eh?

Well, after these posts by Shoemoney and John Chow we might as well start celebrating April Fool's Day on March 31st... :smile:

yea! shoemoney sold his blog to a foundation.. what a joke!

I almost believed it too ... then it occurred to me, "Wait a minute, this is John Chow. If he took off for around the world, there's no way he'd give up the spotlight. He'd probably hire a camera crew to create his own reality show."

It was one of those splendid a-ha moments.

=^..^=

It was too unbelievable. As soon as I read he had sold it, I realized it was a joke.

as long as I have seen the word "premanent" I said that a-ha!

Good try :mrgreen:

I can barely wait :mrgreen:

Hey John, I gess this mont you got to 12,000

Damn it, does that mean the cheque you sent me for $50,000 for guest posting wont clear?!!! :lol:

I'll give you $70,000 to post in mine!!

MAybe that's just part of his trick!! hhahaha

April Fools or not, that post probably got a TON of trackbacks :) A couple of forums even featured threads about it hehehehe :twisted: :mrgreen:

Yep, especially evil, exploiting a deeply meaningful holiday for his own purposes :twisted:

Deeply meaningful? I beg to differ :o

Good joke! I think you caught out quite a number of us for at least a few minutes there :)
