I'm genuinely proud of this.
It was CPAC (Conservative Political Action Conference) 2010, and Ron Paul hadn't announced whether he was running for president again in 2012.
Every time anyone would ask him, he would reply that he hadn't made a decision.
Well, at CPAC I emceed an event featuring Dr. Paul and Judge Napolitano.
Here was my chance.
No, I wouldn't throw that chance away by coming right out and asking him, because I already knew the answer: "I haven't made a decision."
So I threw him a curve ball.
I asked him:
Given the energy and enthusiasm generated by the 2008 campaign, the generation of young people who are now reading Mises and our other greats, and the prospect of perhaps tripling our reach in a second campaign...
...what good reasons can you give us for not doing it?
The place erupted.
And Dr. Paul admitted that he couldn't think of a good answer.
I got him!
Well, I'm playing the same game with you, dear reader.
We all knew it was a good idea for Dr. Paul to run in 2012, but if I asked him straight out, I wouldn't have received a good answer.
So instead I asked: what good reasons can you give me against it?
Same here.
What good reasons are there against having an online business with recurring revenue that comes in month after month -- i.e., a membership, or subscription site -- covering some area you know and/or love?
Well, there obviously aren't any.
So is it that you don't think you can do it?
But as I'll be disclosing soon: I'll be offering the chance to sit down with me for a full hour to brainstorm and plan with you, and after that I'll help you get a boatload of visitors, some fraction of whom will surely join you. That's the hardest part, and I'll solve it for you.
Here's what you should do now:
The world's foremost expert (prove me wrong!) on membership sites is Tom Woods Show guest Stu McLaren.
He is doing a no-pitch workshop this week walking you through exactly what's involved in creating a thriving membership site that can give you both the personal fulfillment and the financial peace of mind we all crave.
(There is a reason I have three membership sites myself, after all.)
Make every effort to be there live, take notes, and start thinking about your next steps.
