Why IM is better off with "The Rich Jerk".........
So I wanted to have a separate Thread centered around 'The Rich Jerk' alone and whether you think (backed by valid points) why or why not it has helped or hindered IM in an overall general sense !!
My own personal observations can be traced by to Spring 2008 when I first started my journey into this crazy IM Life. The Rich Jerk was one of the first IM products I purchased.
And here are the reasons why I think 'The Rich Jerk' has been one of the truly greatest Success stories in IM and why its creation is something to be wholeheartidly commended for :
1. The fictional Persona its creator developed is truly something that would even make Hollywood big wigs be proud of. I dont give a damn what you naysayers say because Kelly's ability to create this character and to run with it for so long would make Cosby, Carlin, and Pryor proud of him. Whether its vulgar or not, it was and is complete entertainment much like a George Carlin Show was !! I would say there is only a handful of people in this Forum who maybe (and thats a big maybe) could come remotely close to doing what Kelly did and emulating his creative prowess !!
2. For a measley $10 you really got more than most other IM products I have purchased. WAY, WAY more. There were tid bits of info. in the ebook as well as the Forum and Blog that I utilized on my own way to Success. The package could have easily sold for $20 or $30 and the same amount of Units would have been moved. I dont doubt that.
3. I truly believed 'The Rich Jerk' has opened up options for many IMers who want to go a different path. John Cow is one that I think has followed a similar path. And that is adopting a crazy, off the wall persona and just running with it. While making financial gains in the meantime. NOTHING wrong with that. Actually,it is quite refreshing and it has stirred me on personally in creating my own unique character and capitalizing off of it.
Bottom line - People, it is called expressing yourself and your creativity and it has been the impetus for many GREAT NOVELS and ACADAMY AWARD WINNING Movies. So dont knock it whether it offends you or not.
Just because Jodie Foster was doused with feces and worse in 'The Silence of the Lambs' doesnt mean that the Movie does not have redeeming qualities in it.
So thats just a few of the reasons why I believe 'The Rich Jerk' is truly worthy of being in the IM Hall of Fame if there was such a thing. And those that knock it need to look take a step back and view RJ for what it is and how it relates to other genres in Life.
To me it was absolute BRILLANCE , whether you believe its creator is a douche bag or not !!
So guys lets here as to why or why not you think IM is better off with 'The Rich jerk' hanging around with a jack and coke in one hand and a hot smoking broad in the other you paltry low Lifes ??
