The minute I hear a company is base I'm all in. I like Mexican food but judging from the amount of Goya food products I have you would think my side hustle is a food cart. Mike Lindell is going to take a bump but what he is creating now is not a side hustle but a hustle by his courage. He is attracting people from all walks of life to join his movement which is about integrity, honest, and American values above all. When have you seen such dedication to doing what is right and be willing to sacrifice everything in the process.

Lindell is a Christian with the kind of guts of the early 1st century Christians. Glad you recognise it. He more than any other CEO from corporate America embodies the values we all share. Hope the missus got the memo!!! Semper Fi brother...
Totally agree strictly. He's one of those guys that has money and gets it. He treats his employees well and they love him. If sales drops he finds a way to keep everyone employed, that was the way the good old tycoons ran things and they were loved for it. Now it is nameless faceless hedge funds running the show.
I always question if I came into money how would I be? Would I be a dick or would I be cool, would I flaunt it or keep it in check, I'm not quite sure of the answers.
I have a couple of friends who have tons of money, a bunch of kids, but they choose to remain living in my average suburb. They have the nice cars and all but they don't stand out and remain grounded. This is a conscious decision and they are cool as well as their kids. They spawn no jealousy or animosity for being rich. I have a lot of respect for them because they keep it real and it takes discipline to do that and I believe this is the reason they remain in my neighborhood because we are old school Irish Catholics, a little rough around the edges, but good people who care for one another. I think that's what people really want, just a little more caring, compassion, and willingness to talk to one another. If we could do this we would be a much healthier nation.
take care and thanks for the response brother
What a Gold Medal reply A.K.
I agree with every single word. I have special love for Mike L as we both share similar come backs from severe narcotic addiction. Both from re-connecting to Christianity (Now in my 24th full year of sobriety after 25 years of hell for myself and the few who resolutely refused to give up on me!) I absolutely love the type of conversations and digital friendships P.W make possible. May the Nazarene continue to bless you and yours. I lived in southern Ireland (county Kerry) for several years in the 1970's. Salt is in the bones of the Irish hehe. Tc brother.
Good for you 1957 you are inspiring others around you and keep telling your story. Our heroes are amongst us and you are one of them. That's really how it all works. You have the Mike Lindell's of the world who inspire/motivate people like you and then you inspire others through a post, conversation, or casual meetings.
When I start complaining about my woes I just take a look around and just say "Dude, you are blessed, look what you have, isn't this what you always wanted, I mean really wanted, and God has given to you." Don't mess up a good thing and do what God wants.
My wife is Irish and I'm Polish and I'm no saint but when it came to drugs or alcohol there was no mincing words when it came to addiction and the Catholic guilt they laid on me keeps me on the straight and narrow.
Never take anything for granted and since you are 25 years and going strong you will always be winning and pass on your knowledge to as many as you can and keep inspiring others. Take Care.
God bless you for those kind and wise words...
Emerald Isle here.
God's country.... lived from 18-23 in Country Kerry in my hippy days (just outside Kenmare) many of the finest people I have met in my 64 years were Irish. It hurts my heart to see what's happened since you foolishly joined the EU. I'm an east ender by birth but happily living by the sea (on the south coast of England these days)
Best way to validate that "more" money won't corrupt you is to realize that today you likely have more money than you had yesterday. (metaphorically speaking, over a long enough timeline).
Are you more generous with your money now that you have $10k in your bank account vs $1k? The same? Less?
Which do you focus on more, sharing the wealth that you have today or hoarding so that you will have more tomorrow? Not that saving for tomorrow is wrong in any way.
The answer that you get from that line of questioning will prove that more money will or will not corrupt you. Most folks don't realize that their greed or generosity is exponential on the amount of money they have. If someone hoards the last $1000 and can't even think of giving $500 to a truly starving kid, then why do they believe that they'll "Give away like half of their wealth" when they're sitting on 100's of millions? Nope, they'll give away far, far less than half because giving is a spiritual thing, not a mathematical thing.
Yes very true and I have heard those stats before and I think I would keep it in check but probably would have the "Beverly Hillbilly" expenditure regardless. It would be an interesting test though. Give a bunch of money (lottery) and see what happens after a year and how the before and after you have changed and what people think of you.
I think, if you truly wanted to show generosity, that the situations to give will overwhelm you.
I'm not saying you're not generous, that was just a general statement about life. When we look for places to help, there never seems to be a shortage.
lol but he simps hard AF for the split tongue anti-Christ clan that has totally usurped and taken over and perverted many Christians. There is no such thing as Judeo-Christian. There can be no anti-Christ, killers of Christ, rejectors of Christ Christians
