Story
In an interview for the Hurts' business, a friend of the family advised, "Go talk to Ty Hurt, he'll do anything for a dollar."
And he was already there. In addition to the fact that Ty and Janie Hurt are both hairdressers, Ty also has his own beauty school during the week and a car wash business during the weekends.
They were willing to consider anything because they were living in a trailer park with five children. After pestering me for five months to view the plan, I realised it was a ruse as soon as I laid eyes on it.
Because Ty was so combative at the meeting, he was able to persuade the other five couples that they should leave rather than join - and they did!
Ty, on the other hand, waited for another four hours, haggling with his sponsor until he agreed to participate.
Approximately six months after Ty attended a session where a representative from the Texas Attorney General's office spoke about the strength and integrity of the company, Janie was able to leave her work and devote her time exclusively to her children.
And, seven months later, they were bringing in more money than we had ever made in our whole business history.
"I feel that when you believe in the possibilities, the trip is enjoyable. The voyage was committed because we were there every night of the week for it.
It was not, however, a sacrifice. Sacrifice is only necessary when one does not believe in the dream."
