If Jay Abraham had to start over from scratch …

You deserve to be paid for what you do
If you’re providing value in the marketplace, you deserve to be compensated for it. For example: I was once a member of a group that kept everyone in the loop by email, and had the primary purpose of connecting entrepreneurs for joint venture opportunities. Besides...
