6 To Fish for a Lifetime

After 6 months of hard-core research, Randy came to the same conclusion as Bob did, that network marketing was the best way for Randy to achieve his dreams and live the lifestyle that he so much desired. Just like Bob, it was only about a year after Randy got laid off from Xerox, that he met a guy named Mark, who introduced him to a new company he had never heard of called NuSkin. Randy like Bob spent most of his free time around his family and part-time job working with NuSkin. Randy having been a sales manager previously had a pretty fast learning curve and within about 6 months he was earning around a $1000 extra dollars per month after all his expenses. Janice was now able to quit her job and come back home. After another 12 months Randy could quit his part-time job and just do Nu Skin full-time.

This also allowed Randy to pursue his passion of golf, which was one of the main reasons he joined Xerox in the beginning. As he thought he could take all of his clients golfing, but no one’s schedule would hardly allow for it, so Randy could only play once or twice a month on the weekends, and it was usually with his college buddies - not his clients. Now with his new career, he could play 2 or 3 times a week, take the kids to school, and go to soccer practices. Randy had become his own boss and was now living the American dream. No employees, no commutes, and no boss. He even had become Luke’s Baseball Coach and Brandon’s Cub Scout Leader. 10 years had now passed and Luke was just entering college. It had been over 20 years since Randy first met Bob and Randy sure feels great that he doesn’t have to borrow any
