I have been working my way through the Famous Message # 33325 and wanted to post some observations about it. (I have already emailed this to Brenda Stone, as I believe she was the source of most of that message. She said to go ahead and post it here.)
"Item2) Purchase Monica's book at amrnotary.com." I have been all over their website. They are now a SS and there does not appear to be any kind of link to any book for sale by them. They do have a link to Just Point and Sign's website, where you can buy their book(s) and audio tapes, but those are not by any Monica -- different person entirely and a different (more expensive) version of NR, IMHO.
"Item 6) Consult the SBA's website." This is great! I have bookmarked it and will be returning to it to mine the info there. Thanks!
"Item 9) Read the link in my profile about what I did to get started." This makes more sense as part of Brenda's How to Get Started article. It needs a link in the message (or a URL to go to) for it to be useful to those who don't know it was Brenda being referred to and how to get to that profile.
"Item 19) Contact wildsignings.com for info on their training course. They sell a book." The domain name is not functioning at all. According to whois.net, that domain is not registered to anyone and is available for purchase. In other words, this item is no longer valid and should be edited out.
Item20) about the forms and efanniemae.com -- Efanniemae.com is another great site that I will go back to and gather info and insights and samples. On the parenthetical comments about nbsigning.com, this domain name is still registered, but it is not active -- it will not come up when entered in the address bar -- so, that one needs to be edited out, too.
Finally, one overall observation. The message concludes that you will be successful if you do all this. I believe it would be more accurate to say you will be successful IF you read the books after you buy them, interpret them and adapt them to your state's laws and your own style of work, and put them into practice. Simply buying the books and visiting the websites and doing the research will not make you a success -- those are precursors to actually doing the work. Of course, YOU know this -- but it should be stated much more clearly in the Famous Message # 33325, IMO.
