The last time I sobbed was 1979! It is not just individuals like this who need the help of a mighty pen. The world itself is on the brink of dissaster and all most people can think about is how to profit from it! This piece reduced a grown man to tears and sobs. The last time I sobbed was 1979!

Hey Kelvin, that\'s really cool about your story. One of the things your story and this one (above) illustrates is the wide application of these skills. That\'s somethingI love most about this business--even if I never made a dime as a copywriter, these skills are priceless in so many other areas of life. In fact, I was talking to Caleb O\'Dowd the other night(the guy who paid Gary Halbert 20K to learn from him) and he was saying that some of the best letters Gary Halbert ever wrote were for refunds or complaints. Thanks again for your post and revealing your own story as well. Tony Thanks everyone! Hey Kelvin, that\’s really cool about your story.

While the Mafia was not my opponent in a 5 year long battle for the future of my own two children... it was one of the world\'s most powerful \"mind control\" organizations. My own copywriting projects took a back-seat as I used that skill to write one lengthy legal brief after another. The attorneys just polished them for legal appeal. Through two court cases... ultimately the power of words in print (backed by the power of words in the court room) won the day. Even though it is now 10 months since I returned my two sons to the United States... only yesterday did I get a copy of the court\'s REASONS FOR JUDGMENT in print. Every high point made in those endless court submissions was reflected by the judge in his decision. And now two young boys, soon young men, get the chance to have their own individual choices in life. That is the power of persuasion. I believe the key point in your story (as in mine)... is regardless of how HOPELESS a situation seems, it can be turned around with words... Very powerful. Warm regards, Kelvin Thank you for sharing Anthony…
