  • Story time!

    My brother worked, as a salesperson, for one of the largest textile companies in the world for 13 years. And he did it all from home (i.e. telecommuting). Rarely ever saw or spoke to his “boss”…very close to being self-employed.

    Then another textile company (very large competitor) offered him a similar position…similar in every way except for pay.

    First year guaranteed $250,000 (he is almost one third through)

    Second year guaranteed $500,000.

    Third year guaranteed $1,500,000.

    Neither him nor his boss knows what will happen after that…they’ve kept it open.
