From Cookies to Cupcakes….How Did You Get To Be So Rich?
FROM COOKIES TO CUPCAKES
How do you get to be so rich?
Last night I was watching a television show with Joan Rivers, called “How Did You Get To Be So Rich?” And I thought about what we’re doing with our radio show. She interviewed three millionaire’s/billionaire’s, who created great wealth for themselves. The first was a gentleman from the Bronx, who’s parents owned a small pharmacy. The second was Mrs. Field’s, who baked cookies and the third was a woman from Las Vegas who opened a cupcake shop.
The man from the Bronx had a 24 million dollar home with Versaille Gardens and a fountain that was so magnificent that it cost him a thousand dollars a day to run! He spent a total of 34 days a year in this home.
The question I have for you is, how do you react to his success and wealth? Do you think he’s wasteful? Or do you marvel at the magnificence of what he and his Universe have created?
His back story is that he had to quit college when his parent’s business was failing and offered to come in and help them. He mentioned that his mother never thought he did anything right. Interesting……uh Mom’s? He transformed the business from a company of 5 employees going out of business to 1000 employees making a million dollars a day.
He wore goofy sunglasses on the show and shiny tennis shoes. When he showed Joan around his estate you could see how he LOVED what he created.
We all know Mrs. Fields. But what you probably didn’t know is that the first day she opened her store, no one came in to buy a cookie. So after hours of waiting for her customers, she took her cookie sheet filled with cookies and went up and down the streets selling those creations. That day she made $75.00 and she said it was the happiest day of her life. That’s a 150 people at $.50 a cookie. You probably don’t know either that when she bakes her cookies she has a little cookie dance she does to the rotation beat of the mixer. I have a little workshop I do that demonstrates this power to manifest money is found in your hips. Move those hips ladies and money starts flowing in! Debbby Field’s is living proof of it! So if you’re stuck right now with your money, stand up, relax your shoulders and move your hips. Do the Debby Fields cookie dance. She still LOVES making those cookies!
The third lady from Las Vegas made her millions on cupcakes. I remember taking cupcakes to school for my birthday treats. Who would have thought that those treats would make millions for someone? That’s a lot of cupcakes! What was her secret ingredient that made them sell like hotcakes? I watched her closely and her outstanding feature was she LOVED cupcakes!
There is no idea too big, or too small for you to create that has the potential to make you millions. You don’t have to have the education, approval, or the money to go out with that cookie sheet and share your confections with the world. The two key ingredients that all three of these billionaires/millionaires had in common was that they LOVED what they did and the had FUN doing it.
