I don't think that Jon is lying about the $16m. It's the dude at the other end that I don't find to be so credible. Yes, he might be good for it and all that. But I know others, who are in the business broking biz. And they hype up a small business owner to get them to talk about the business' internal numbers. They make the small business owners jump through hoops and do backflips. Once they got whatever information they needed, they simply come up with some bullshit reason as to why the deal can't go through. So it's not Jon that I question, it's more of the other dude at the other end.

Very good point! I had a guy try do this for one of my real estate sites. Looked up his company and found out his company wasn't even worth the amount of his offer.
 


This statement is 100% true, Jon is an asshole! :D I'm the fastest designer I know and he calls me "slow man".

THat made me spit out my tea...LOL :banana_sml:

So Jon is like Fry after his 100th cup of coffee?

Yeah... odd futurama refernces... blame piggy.

Deli - again, jon said this guy was 100% legit so he thinks the guy has the money to do it so that is not it!
 
chris -
I could still see this happening, even IF the guy has the money.

Just trying to get the other guy (Jon in this case) to disgorge some real numbers, then decide.

Or even worse, then decide about another biz or about moving into that niche yourself.

For people who doubt my predictions/projections for WickedFire, for my blog, and for my private affiliate program the only thing I can say to you is just be patient, and wait and see. Do you think I like waiting around?

Let's go over this one for a bit... I was talking to you months ago and said I'd be willing to help you out with your survey affiiate program and spend a few hundred/day to test it out... you said it would be ready in a week... it has been about 3 months or so since then... how can you be off by so much?

how about the 10 million niches thing I heard about that each make $1/day... do you know how impossible that is??? about.com is probably the closest thing to that and they aren't even close to making that kind of revenue. i've had more than 10mil pages indexed when i used to do bhat and it was easy... barely made 2k/day...

so come on... things are getting hard to believe.
 
Deli - again, jon said this guy was 100% legit so he thinks the guy has the money to do it so that is not it!

Yeah thats definitely true but his point is at least its worth considering

I just got off of the phone with a pretty well known person who runs a company that snaps up big properties and he offered me $16 million for WickedFire.
Doesn't sound to me like he even had enough time between the phone call and the post to even research if this guy really was who he said he was.

Just making an observation.
 
Chris,
It's not that the guy has the money or not. He might have 10x's as much. But maybe, he's just hyping Jon, to get Jon to fork over or do something for him. If Jon, would have said, yes, the dude would have backed out. The point being, it was all a sham to get Jon to do something for him. It happens all the time.
 
when i hear guy who snaps up big properties i think barry diller... unfortunately we are talking sites like ask.com, not wf
 
seocrappy, pontificate on dieeso - deli- voodo - I hear what you are saying but those theory's are about as likely as the 16m offer! sure it could happen but I think I will fuck Carmen Electra before either of those things happen or happened!

seems we only have three things on this thread.
claims, theories, and a whole lot of bunched up panties.

Yes i will gladly accept carmen electra as my hooker. Could please you send her down to reno and tahoe, thats where I'll be during asw?
 
Deli there was nothing about you fucking her, you are on your own there I was talking about me, wtf do I care about you?
 
Here's an example of what I'm saying ...

Let say you own a nice luxury car (I don't know a $100,000 Mercedes). I come to you and say, "I love your car and I need to have it. I'll give $300,000 for it".

You say, "Sure". Because shit you could buy 3 of the same car for that price. But then I tell you, "But first, I need to take it for a spin. Let me get it for 1 night".

You want to get the $300k. So you give me the keys.

Without you knowing, I take your car to all the nightclubs. I fuck half a dozen chicks in the back seat. The next morning, I give you back your car. And tell you that I didn't like the way that it handled and that it has a nasty smell.

Yeah, you were offered $300k for the car. And I could have been good for the $300k. But what did you get in reality? One stank nasty funky smelling car.

So, anyone has a $100,000 Benz they want to sell for $300k?

What else is there? do you propose we let this go unflamed? I say when you make a wild claim its your responsibility to back it up with a little more info instead of one giddy post about the experience.
And if you make a claim like that chances are high that people are not gonna leave it alone.
so either speculate in high quantities or don't speculate but no one is gonna speculate for you!

And here is what you DONT do, you don't get on a forum and tell everyone you turned down a serious $300,000 offer for a used car that is $100,000 new.
even thats only like a 3x markup and we are talking 30x markup here.
 
consider the audience this was presented too, are we known for doing anything else? so this was either because there was slow traffic on the site and he wanted some links - I have not done a flame thread in quite some time (I kid) or he has mental issues that he needs worked out.

If it is the first, he sure picked a poor way of driving traffic cause all he has done is make himself look like a fibber
