Hi, My name is Michael, Micky to those who know me well. That one stuck after I went to sea at 16 and it's my preferred name, no 'e', that's Disney.
I live in the far south west of Cornwall, England. Just one of the countless beauty spots of this wonderful planet we are so lucky to have.
By the end of 2006 as an entrepreneur I had re-kindled some old friendships where I had become involved in multi-level and affiliate marketing. This went back to 1992/94 and wow! This kind of business had changed dramatically. I'd been really getting used to and to know the Internet as I used it in my business but this was different. I re-joined an old team of entrepreneurs and fired up some of the recommended low start-up, low risk businesses they were researching. One of those was the e-Lottery Syndicates from Virtual World Direct.
This was a business that could, if you put the energy into it, create a
six-figure income. All for a joining fee of just 0 pounds! Too good to
be true, that's what I thought. Until I started meeting the people whom
had done this already and the people who I was involved with wouldn't
have touched this if it wasn’t any good, illegal or unethical. I'd known
some of these people as good friends for over 20 years. It really was a
no-brainer and I do not mean any disrespect by that, or to de-value the
business because it was real and it did work.
By the end of 2007
I was forging a good friendship with one of my upline affiliate
associates Peter T. The team always said to talk to the upline member in
the team who you related to best. Well Pete was the guy who I could
understand face to face, No Bull! But he had something I have as well! A
burning desire to succeed and a passion for the business we had become
involved with and most importantly, a love and interest in people! I am
still very good friends with Pete today all these years later.
All
through 2008 we researched more and more on, how and why some of the
top e-lottery affiliates were getting their success. We did find out but
along the way but I also found and fell love with the rest of the
gigantic world of the lottery. Our research was throwing up so much that
we decided to put it all together in a couple of websites. If we create
a good service and people are happy with it then that's great. If it
helps to fan the flames of our burning desires and quench our thirst for
the great interest in people we both have, and make an income, then
that's even better. You see, none of this works without us, or you, or
anybody.
So, here I am today, expanding on my love of the great world of
lotteries even though the original reason I got involved with it has
long gone. Lotteries are one of the oldest gaming, gambling activities
on the planet as well as being some of the oldest way churches used to
raise funds as well as some past Sovereigns using them to raise money to
build ships! Yes, you read that correctly, ships!
England’s
first ever National Lottery was instigated in 1567 by Queen Elizabeth I.
At this time England was seeking to expand its export markets around
the world. The lottery was intended to raise money for the enormous
costs of building ships and developing ports. Tickets cost ten shillings
each – far too much for the ordinary citizen to afford. The first prize
was an amazing £5000, which was paid partly in ‘ready money’ and partly
in silver plate, tapestries and ‘good linen cloth’.
This sort of
history tweaked my interest and Global Lottery Secrets was born* and
yes, I do play some lotteries, it is nice to get a winner now and then
although I’m still awaiting the BIG one! I even play a weekly bonus ball
lotto in my local public house.
*Global Lottery Secrets was
first launched and built at the end of 2008 with the hyphenated version
of the domain name www.global-lottery-secrets.com. This is now a
complete rebuild of the old site but edited for the 21st Century
internet. This will become more apparent as I expand on my old story
Things have changed and moved on a great deal since then.
As I rebuild Global Lottery Secrets I will expand on my “About Us” story. Thank you for visiting us.
