Brother why wouldn’t you want your live ones to be rich, powerful and completely free?Originally Posted by limitles
Pipes I find you entertaining, but the last thing in the world would be me teaching your lifestyle to anyone I care about.
There is a lesson for you
What’s the deal with PayPal?
I like to have different bonus opportunities for my team on fridays
Last Friday a Filipino girl won, so I sent her $150 on PayPal
I went to log back into my account and it said I had to provide different documents to verify my account
My team sent the documents. They wanted to see a recent bank statement! I thought it seemed crazy
Got a note they reviewed it and decided to just close the account no reason given
It was all 100% legit documents that match my PayPal info
I didn’t lose any money and don’t use PayPal often but I just thought this was weird. It’s a crime to send money to Filipinos?
You know what she did with the money? She bought her son schoolbooks and supplies and she sent me a picture of him with the stuff looking very happy and said now she will get him his favorite meal. That makes a guy like Pipes feel a bit better after a stressful day of business
It’s the first time in a while I’ve been “alone” in casinos. What a depressing atmosphere. Full of drunk fat degenerates smoking cigarettes.
Half the people have no spatial awareness. You ever walk around Vegas? Half the people walk right in your path, stop to use their phone in the middle of the walk way etc. awful. Low spatial awareness is a sign of a low IQ
Anyways I always feel a little depressed when I’m alone in a casino. Sometimes I even think of killing myself but then I feel bad about thinking that because I have kids and family all over the world that counts on me and employees who’d families depend on my business to make money. I don’t even feel that way but sometimes my mind works that way, it really has for a long time.
You know when I first started posting as Nicky Pipes it was the best my life has ever been for a lot of reasons. In some ways I had finally “made it” and had real money. I was happy and my life was going smoothly. Bullet proof. Untouchable. Immortal.
Nothing has really changed but lately I just haven’t been feeling that way. In fact I think I made more money last month than I ever have in a month before. But it was just so stressful. My back and neck have been hurting so bad I did not even know if I would be able to fly to Vegas but I just knew I would be able to if I set my mind to it.
About two years ago one of my women was pregnant and was always asking me what if something goes wrong etc etc
I just would always say nothing will go wrong and she’d say how do you know? And I would say I just know, I know for a 100% fact and have no doubt in my mind, it’s not possible for anything to go wrong. Nothing went wrong
I had the same attitude towards business, I just had so much faith belief and confidence in myself that I would be successful and that’s what I became. I was put into so many situations that were above my head were I had no business being there and I would always be a little nervous going into those type of meetings or conferences and I would think, should I make a plan? Organize something to say? Then I would just think no, I shouldn’t do that. Just bullshit whatever comes to mind it’s better that way and it was
Now, I come to Vegas for meetings with the top players in my entire industry. They all message me for time to meet, can I take you to dinner etc Etc, come meet us for a drink
The same people who a few years ago wouldn’t respond to my messages. I don’t hold it against them but I do remember that.
One guy called me about 100 times this week and message me more both on Skype and text to meet. I wasn’t even brushing him off I was just busy. I finally went to meet him and I mentioned those feelings. I said you know now you beg me to send you business but a few years ago your company wouldn’t even respond to me now here we are brother
This week somebody asked to take a picture with me for the first time in my life. I don’t even know why. Afterwards my Moroccan friend said wow Nicky you are really so famous now. I said she must just be confused. It was an attentive girl, really attractive and she actually looks just like a girl I used to love back in college. All last night she texted me “my company is having a big dinner tonight please stop by” with hearts and shit. I already had dinner plans so she said “we got a table at the club tonight VIP, please come!!!” Hearts again
I really wanted to go it was hard for me not to but it’s business and I don’t do business like that.
Do you understand how vulnerable you make yourself and your company if you make those type of decisions? The guy who owns her company founded a huge porn company when he was young. He has a lot of businesss now and was a very interesting guy to meet. He has one of those bulls hit stock signal trading groups and tried to convince me it’s legit. I said listen pal Nicky Pipes used to run a company like that I know the deal but yeah we can still mail that out no problem
Anyways, I was walking around tonight and just thinking how did all of this happen? How did it happen so fast? I remember a few years ago canceling my health insurance because I couldn’t afford to pay the $400 a month because the business wasn’t making money. I didn’t even have a nice computer I did it all from some old lap top. When I decided to “invest” in a new computer it was a huge decision for me.
I thought it would feel better than this and that I would be happier. I thought that if I got to a point like this I wouldn’t really feel like I’m feeling lately. I thought I’d feel more like how I felt when I first posted as Nicky Pipes all the time. I don’t know why I’ve been a bit down lately but in many ways I guess the stress and prsssure is getting to me.
It’s just so hard to keep a business like this going. It’s 24/7/365 and it never turns off. I can’t remember the last time I’ve slept through the night, my mind is now jsut trained to get up like 5 times or more every night and check business and respond to messages
This week alone I had to leave meetings 3 times to go deal with an emergency situation which my staff should have been able to fix but they never can, or they can but it’s just too slow. One of them said Nicky I can fix it but it might take me 20 minutes. It pissed me off so much I just went and fixed it right away I do not want ot wait 20 minutes
Sometimes I wish I had somebody close to me to talk to about this stuff and these feelings, like I really wish I had my dad to run some ideas and thoughts by but I don’t anymore and it’s not the type of thing somebody like my mom talks about
I like to discuss some of this stuff with people I have meetings with but they are all very smart. Some are way smarter and more advanced than me. Some are such tech wizards I can’t believe it. For somebody on a tech based business I have no tech skills at all. The point is I never want to say too much because I never want them to know too much about my business because I understand they are smart enough to copy or replicate what I do and take market share away from me.
I am looking forward to being back in Florida with my dingoes this weekend.
brother pipes coming from the heart tonight. brother you know the answers to your problems. you know what your dad would say too. You'll be ok brother. You know what to do.
Thank you brother. Over the last few months I have found the positive feedback from you and Sanlmar to be very encouraging and I will never forget that
