C L O S E D : WE HAVE MET OUR GOAL :) ... Michael Tracey Desperately Needs Our Help!

[jhongren]

Hi,

Thanks to Bev, I read about what Michael did and it is really impressive and noble of Michael.

Here is the site where you can find out more about what Michael is doing:

=> Afri Chef, the African Recipes Chef

I am totally blown away. Michael is really very noble! Thanks to him for making a difference in the world and in our world!

Cheers,
John

Michael,
I hope that you recover quickly and know exactly how much you are appreciated and loved here at the forum.

I posted on that thread that if my video won, to give the money to Michael. I'll also give my video to Allen if other person wins and gives the money to Michael.

[onera]

I donated whatever I could. It is sad to see personal savings are destroyed due to medical expenses in the richest country of the world. I wish him great success in coming days.

[goldie22]

I've made a donation and hope it helps Michael!

I was also thinking that with all these talented video makers here that maybe someone could make a video promoting Michael's cookbook and putting it up on Youtube and it could help generate more funds for him.

I didn't have time to read thru all the posts so not sure if someone may have already done this, but if not is anyone willing to do it?

Cheers,

Debbie

[blokh]

count me in .. I hope we all, as a team, can just take care of this situation for Michael ...

[lpstoops]

I book marked this post to generate more traffic and more donations.

[Mark Singletary]

Michael is definitely one of the good guys. Michael, for as long as I've known him, epitomizes everything that is right about online business and nothing that may be wrong.

A more decent person you'd be hard to find - online or off.

One thing that I'm feeling guilty about is that I haven't been in touch with him in awhile. The lesson to be learned is when you have something good in your life - don't let it go and don't ignore it or one day it won't be available at all.

A few years ago when I was in a black hole, Michael surprised me with a heartfelt phone call that meant so much to me then and now. Just the other day I was thinking about some of the many emails we've swapped and was wondering how he was doing.

No amount of money can repay the friendship I've felt with him but a little bit of karma has just been returned.


Thanks Michael.

Mark

[Andyhenry]

I've never met or spoken to Michael in person but I've felt his presence in the background of the forum for years. I only joined the forum in 2004, but it's stood out from the other public forums throughout that time as a community and not just a forum.

Now that Big Mike has the WSO started, I urge people to get over the and start grabbing bargains:

http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ael-tracy.html

I've bought everything there so far despite having some of them already, so it's definitely been worth Mikes time to get it started and I'm going to buy more stuff once he's put more up.

Even if like me, you already donated, please take a look at what's on offer and do what you can to grab a bargain and help Michael.

If you can't buy anything yourself - spread the link and help others to get a bargain and help aswell.

I hope we can change Michaels life for the better and at least make his current situation and outlook on the near future a positive one.

We've all had times when things don't look so good, so let's help him however we can.

Andy

[Bev Clement]

Or if you can't donate money, look and see if you can donate a product or a service for this.

[JayXtreme]

ooooooh...

I'm gonna grab me some bargains this morning, the WSO is heeeyaaaah.. Thanks for organising this Mike.. you rock dude..

Peace

Jay

[Michael Tracey]

I wish I could thank everyone individually for their donations and prayers, I can't

I wish I could thank Big Mike and Allen enough for what they've done, I can't

I wish I could explain to you what the last few days have meant to me, I can't
It's not just the money side, it's the outpouring of love...

Insofar as the donations are concerned perhaps you will get a small idea of what they mean to my familly and I when I say that I have been physically sick at the relief that the donations will bring.

From the bottom of my heart THANKS

Michael

Michael, please remember that the main reason you are getting all of this love is because of the help you have given others. You should be proud of what you have done and this is just a reminder of how YOU have changed others lives for the better.


Get well soon and all of our love to you and your family.

All that good karma you've been building up over the years is being unleashed all at once.

Michael I would like to take this opportunity to thank you Sir..

I read at the warrior a long time before I joined here.. and I purchased many WSO's... you shone brightly throughout that time as a man with a big heart...

Thank you... and believe me when I say that you deserve the best of health real quick....

You rock

Peace

Hey Michael,

We all wish you well and hope that all the gifts go some way
to relieving your burdens......

And remember that you've provided everyone with so much help
and "guidance" over the years, never expecting anything in return...

Just rest and concentrate on getting well.....

God Bless

Greg

PS: Will call you to set up a time to come and visit you this week....

[Treece]

You reap what you sow.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Hi Michael,

Uhumm ... I think you already did explain to us what this means to you.

Sometimes a lost for words is all one needs to be able to recognize someone else has been touched.

You Sir, have touched so many lives in this forum alone that the Karma scale has tipped so far on your end, that we will never be able to recipricate it.

So you've basically thanked us a very long time ago.

Now let God do what He's doing, and sit back with relief!

In you He is well pleased!


Okay everyone,

here is the link for Michael's relief WSO:

http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ael-tracy.html

Check it out and buy something.

All the best ...


Mary

[kazoo]

Wow... I've been a member for almost 2hrs now & spent the last 2hrs reading this thread - I am deeply moved.....

Although I'm also between a rock & a hard place at the moment ($15k+ in debt with no job), I am happy to donate all profits for this month from the websites I'm currently learning how to set up. I don't know if there is a deadline for donations but I'll do my best in doing what I can for even though I don't personally know Michael. I understand strain of financial hardship & I really hope we will reach the $20k that you need...

Take care Michael, rest well & drink lots of fluids.

Kaja


All profits for November will go towards Michael Tracey.

[alan mac]

Donation sent. Good luck Michael.

[BIG Mike]

UPDATE: Donations presently stand at $17,176

We're nearly there folks! Well done to all of you....

[Elmer Hurlstone]

This is a Blatant Bump!

Elmer


PS. Check out the WSO. For the first time in recorded history a WSO is on the main forum.

If you have no need of anything being offered in the WSO and still wish to help, do as I did and make a donation!

PPS. Personal to Michael: You are still in our prayers and thoughts.

Edit: Oops, Mike beat me to it--by a minute...

[Sagar Mehta]

Just sent my donation in! Michael, we all hope things get sorted out for you - all the best and stay strong.

Your very welcome, now concentrae on getting better.

[KevinBrown]

Just sent a contribution in.

All the best to you Michael. Get well soon.

Kindest regards

[Bev Clement]

Good to see the target is almost reached, but can we continue beyond the target so that Michael and his family could take a holiday, have some money as savings, and basically allow Michael to totally recover from his illness and the added stress that this has all caused.

My suggestion is to go as close to $30K as possible, because he deserves it.

Bev

[Shannon Herod]

Another donation sent thanks to Michael.

I am donating 30% of my WSO to Michael and his family. I am hoping to sell out the remaining 25 resell rights packages, so I can keep sending these donations over.

Regards,

Shannon

[Bev Clement]

For all the writers who have ever asked me questions, my new wso is giving 50% to Michael. You will never get a writers workshop run as cheap as this again.

Bev

That's a great idea, Bev. Having a financial buffer just makes good sense.

All The Best,


Tony

[Angela V. Edwards]

Yeah, I agree Bev and Tony. The medical situation probably has caused some extra stess financially for the family, beyond just the medical bills. I think if we can help ease this up just a bit, too, we should go for it.

[Justin Mandel]

This is so very touching I would like to help out too with my very first (and possibly only ever) "VIDEO MARKETING LIMITED-TIME OFFER WITH INSTANT PURE KARMA BONUS!"

[Charles E. White]

Mary, it's good to be back. Seems like I have been away from home for a long time and seems like I have let a good friend down when I should have been there for him.

[Andyhenry]

Michael - This incident is truly the Law Of Attraction at work.

You've done so much for others and your spirit of kindness, positivity and helping have been transmitted out for so long that the Universe can't help but draw us all to you in your time of need.

As you've seen from the response, the love we're sending has drawn in complete strangers to the forum and to you.

You get back what you send out and this thread is just evidence that you sent out a lot.

It's been so great of Big Mike to put all this effort into co-ordinating everything and I'd like to thank him too - he's also building up a lot of karma right now.

While I've been interested to see how close to the goal we've been getting, it's my sincere hope that we won't stop when we get there.

I for one would love to help make sure this situation can't happen again and put something extra in the pot over and above what we've been told you 'need'.

Whatever happens, it's been great to know that we as a community have been able to help. This is what life's all about.

Best wishes to you and your family - and to BigMike, I'm sure he's knackered now and still going strong.

Andy

We haven't finished yet

[SharynP]

This is human kindness and community caring, people at their best
Mike obviously has people who feel they want to help because of his own generous nature and belonging to this community.

Karma was a man made inventive device to control people and their behaviour!
I cannot accept the Karma thing myself, I have seen people whipped with it,
and even told they did something bad in a pevious life to deserve what is now.

Many of us don't know Mike, so this for us is a desire to help.
Contributing to any community, as Mike has done, is rewarded with a wonderfull sense of "belonging"

Shaz
PS delete if too ()&^*&%

[Bev Clement]

Time to give this another bump

[SharynP]

I dont know what the bumping means
Here I mean, I know what it is in the wso forum.
Could someone please explain it to me?
Maybe other new people comming from twitter and other w2 sites for the first time may also want to know.

Shaz

Hi Shaz,

Here is what Wikipedia has to say:

To bump a thread on an Internet forum is to post a reply to it purely in order to raise the thread's profile. This will typically return it to the top of the list of active threads.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bump (Internet)

Note: Bumping is not allowed for personal threads....

Best Wishes,
Mohsin Rasool

PS. Hi Michael, it is so refreshing to see you posting!
Yes, this is all GOOD KARMA you have accumulated from all over the world...
As you deserve it! Thanks for making this community such a great place...
and Allen with friends like you have made this forum , which we call WARRIOR FORUM :-)

God bless you All!

[Bev Clement]

Bumping is something that a lot of forums allow, and people use it to self promote themselves.

Bumping isn't normally allowed here, but this is one time when rules are meant to be broken is true.

[SharynP]

Thanks Mohsin Rasool,
Great to have that cleared up.
I hope I did not offend your beliefs
I respectfully appologise to you.
Although my own personal feelings will remain the same,
but that is also the great thing about this forum hey
Maybe the world could be so "alltogether".
Shaz

[Hamish Jones]

I've donated and thought I would mention it here.

Not because I want praise, but I thought I would re-bump this post in the hope that others will do the same!

[SharynP]

Thanks Bev,
I thought you wanted to make my comment dissapear to another page
Oh dear, so emotive sometimes, but just the feeling here the last couple of days. And the Faith people have placed here. I sincerely hope that this
helps Michael to relax and just concentrate on getting better.
Stress is not goodly placed on people who are sick.
You really need a medical system that is free like in Australia.
Our Governments role is to support us in bad times as we pay taxes in good times.
Anyhow thanks Bev.
Shaz

[JayXtreme]

I have to agree that going beyond "what is needed" is something we could aim for.. Michael deserves it...

Let's do this...

Peace

Jay

[Andyhenry]

Jay,

I'm with you - I'm not stopping just because we reached a target.

Andy

[Iain Ainsworth]

How about setting up a Paypal subscription for Michael where we can all pay a monthly amount to really help him and his family for the months ahead.

Heck! 1,000 Warriors paying just $5 a month equates to a decent figure - who here is going to miss $5 a month??

That's a pint of beer here in the UK. If Michael was closer to me, I'd love to buy him a beer or three each month - wouldn't you?

I'm obviously 'in' - if anyone else is interested perhaps we can ask Big Mike to set things up?

[webdude2000]

I am also in agreement, lets keep the momentum and love shown here for Michael going.

He certainly deserves it.

Get well soon Michael.

-Mark

P.S. It is great to see so many South Africans on this forum.

[Andyhenry]

Great idea Iain,

I've just done something similar with my Dad.

My brother, my sister and me have all just decided it's time we looked after him and are all putting 1/3 each in every month to pay all his bills and get him a cleaner to come and look after his house.

It's a small amount for us all to make a big difference to him, so I'm definitely up for doing the same for Michael.

Andy

[webdude2000]

Iain

This is a brilliant idea, I am in.

Regards
Mark

Howdy Folks!

We're nearly there - 5 short days of members doing what they do best is all it seems it will take

I'm going to email Michael now to have him look at your ideas.

Meanwhile, we're very close to our original stretch goal and I've got a six pack cooling in the fridge
