Marketing Mr. Amazing’s Magic Rocks -
It could never happen in real life, right? Yeah, just keep telling yourself that. 
Here’s a clip from a modern day fable that’s as every bit educational as anything Aesop ever churned out.
But instead of the “Ant And The Grasshopper” Blair Warren over at the Crooked Wisdom blog has created one that explains how online and offline hucksters make millions from otherwise intelligent people.
Read the whole thing to get the entertaining lesson. And btw, make sure you read Comment #9.
Mr. Amazing’s Wealth Attracting Rocks - $20 Money Back Guarantee
Onlookers gather around the mysterious salesman and soon one approaches him.
“How do I know these rocks really attract wealth?”
“They work based on universal laws and are proven effective by quantum physics. You don’t have to do anything except think about wealth. The rock does the rest.”
“And you’ll return my money if it doesn’t work?”

Didn’t that sound familiar? If you’ve been online for anytime at all, then you can probably throw a stick and hit 6 people you’re sure he’s talking about.
My money’s on Joe Vitale and the rest of The Secret hucksters.
Tip o’ the hat to Connie Schmidt at Whirled Musings for pointing out this outrageously funny fable.
