Getting Paid to Practice My Speech about The Joy of Not Working

June 14, 2008

Ritz Carlton in Istanbul Where Ernie Zelinski Will Stay

I may have a chance to tune up my speech-making abilities and get paid at the same time. Since receiving the inquiry from KalDer to make a speech about The Joy of Not Working in Istanbul,

I received this e-mail:

    Subject: Possible Speaking Engagement
    Mr. Zelinski:
    We now make it a practice to give this book out to our clients on every financial planning appointment. We would love the opportunity to speak with you about a speaking engagement at our fall conference in Dallas, TX. The dates for this conference are September 17 & 18, 2008. We would like to discuss what it would take to get you to our conference, what type of presentation you would like to do and the logistics involved.
    Our President of Field Operations would like the opportunity to contact you directly to discuss this possibility. Please let me know how we may contact you. Thank you,
    Donna Castleberry
    NettWorth Financial Group
    Director of Rep Services

I have since spoken to the President of Field Operations at Nettworth Financial Group and found out that they have purchased over 1,000 copies of How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free: Retirement Wisdom That You Won't Get From Your Financial Adviser.

Nettworth Financial Group is considering bringing me to Dallas as a keynote speaker.

This will be a great place to tune up my speech making abilities for the speech that I have to make about The Joy of Not Working in Istanbul

Even The U.S. State Dept Likes The Joy of Not Working
