Happy Thanksgiving - What Are You Thankful For?
Wow - it’s Thanksgiving 2007 already! For everyone in the U.S. this is one of the biggest holidays of the year since most employees have a 4 day weekend starting on Thursday. (for me currently living in Japan it’s just another work day:) )
It’s a time for family get togethers, rest and relaxation and enough food to feed everyone for days.
Whether or not you live in the States….what are you thankful for this year?
I’m thankful….
To be BLESSED with my soulmate and best friend - my wife and for my 3 wonderful boys who are growing up so ever fast.
For our HEALTH, everyone in my immediate and extended family are very healthy. My grandfather is pushing 90 years old with the heart of a 21 year old. He and his wife travel the States every year in their 30 foot 2006 monster mobile home pulling their new Cadillac - it’s a site for sore eyes.:) They are still active, playing golf and going strong at almost 90! My father is healthy as a horse as well.
For GREAT PEOPLE in my life such as my sister and her husband, good lifelong friends like my buddy Shane in the States who I’ve known since gradeschool, my business partner and close friend Simon Hodgkinson, close partners such as JP, JD, AF, EC, RB, TT, JC, ML, EL and so many others like the cool people I met in Atlanta, US and Coventry, UK, our brilliant technical staff and office at SK Tech, all our members and customers around the world, our network of virtual worldwide staff, JV partners and affiliates and the angels that are watching over us and guiding us all.
For FREEDOM where in some parts of the world is still a matter of life and death. Not just financial freedom, but freedom in general. To be able to think, do and go where I please safely.
For our BUSINESS SUCCESS which would not be possible without you, our members and satisfied customers who we strive to please. Our own business success has been a chain reaction for many of our affiliates and partners who we’ve helped to profit. But the best thing is so many of our members and customers are now able to earn more and improve their lifestyles as a result of buying our products and services. (MemberSpeed.com, SureFireWealth.com, MarketingMainEvent3.com etc.)
To have been able to build a new house for my father, remodel our house in the States, buy a new condo in Japan for my family as well as help financially support my mother-in-law.
To be in a situation to start thinking more PHILANTHROPICALLY by donating more and help others as a results of our business success and financial freedom which has come about. We hope to be able to help support many worthy charities even more such as Room to Read, Doctors without Borders, fighting global warming among a few.
These are just some of the many things I am very thankful for…
Post what you are thankful for below.

I am thankful for people like yourself who give so much to people like myself by educating us in internet marketing. We can’t all afford to spend hundreds of dollars in building businesses and therefore what you give to us while we attempt to do so is fantastic and very much appreciated. May you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Jeremy, and everyone,
Happy Thanksgiving,
I’d like to say, Jeremy, that I am thankful for you and Surefirewealth.com!
The website I used here is one I am promoting hard right now, for the holidays, but I have a couple others that I am trying to build with material I received from your site, Surefirewealth.com.
I love the site and all the material! I am fairly new at all this and don’t really know what I’m doing, but I’ll keep stumbling along. I don’t know what I’d do with out the membership in your site.
Thank You!
I would also like to say, I to am thankful for the most wonderful woman I know. Her name is Kim, and she is not just my wife and life mate, she is my Hero!
You see 3 years ago I was the owner/contractor of a successful construction company and I had a heart attack and almost died. Our savings didn’t last long and we had to sell off the company and all my tools in order keep paying the bills. Only to be hit again, 6 months after my heart attack, I developed blood clots in my lungs, Plurisy, and Pneumonia all at the same time and once again my life laid in the balance. And once again I was spared!
Thank You, LORD!!
I now am on disability, oxygen 24/7/365 and a hand full of pills, twice a day!! And, 3 weeks ago, we found out I have diabetes! Damn the bad luck!!
However Kim, my wife, for the last 2 1/2 years, has stepped right up and has been working her tail off. Supporting not only me and her but we also have 2 young teenage kids. She never complained, objected or even hesitated, she just stepped right up to the plate. And hit a home run in my book!!!
So yes I am very thankful to have a friend, a lover, a wife and my Hero, for a life mate!!!
Sorry I didn’t plan this to be so long!

Hello, I am really thankful to God almighty who has given me what ever I have and at present also he is stretching out his hands to give his abundant blessings. Happy thanks Giving day to all
November 22nd, 2007 at 4:07 pm
I am thankful my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who is my all in all.
I am thankful for the most wonderful wife in the world and 6 fantastic kids.
I could go on and on from my sisters to my puppy to my country.
Thank You Too.

This is going to sound funny, but I am thankful that I have no money. The reason I have no money is that my partner and I have, through the last 6 years, adopted 3 boys and 1 girl from China. All of them had birth defects (3 cleft lip and palate and one whose arm didn’t fully develop). Nothing says broke like 4 kids who need medical attention!!
I’ve never experienced love like I have with this family. I could not be more proud of them and who I have become because of them. People often say that the kids are so lucky to have parents like us, but I have to tell you that it is exactly the opposite. They have blessed us so much that I cannot imagine what my life would have been without them. They have brought color, playfulness, and enduring curiousity back into my life at an age where I thought all of that was over.
I am thankful that we always have food on the table and lots of loud, loving conversation.
I am very thankful and blessed to have the opportunity to say these things in someone else’s blog. I hope you all have someone to love and someone who loves you.

The comments are all beautiful. It is good to be thankful. I am thankful most of all for the Lord Jesus Christ who gave His Life that I might have Life.
I’m blessed with many good things, family friends, etc. They all come from Him.
Happy Thanksgiving to all and remember everyday of your life should begin with Thanks.
Jeremy I’ve learned a lot from you and the folks at SK Tech.

Thankful for family, health, friends, and living in the good ol USA!

Hi Jeremy
You know, I have to agree with Rusty. I am thankful to you and SFW especially for MME3.
To be honest, I am also thankful for Internet Marketing. It provided so many opportunities for so many people and the chance to connect with someone that you would never have met.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Cheers

I am thankful that I have to opportunity to work with some of the most wonderful people on the internet. When I say that it is because those I am affiliated with not only have the desire and drive to live the life of an internet,affiliate or network marketer but go the extra mile to help one another reach their goals.
Money allows us to eat, buy our dreams, and live our fantasies but beyond that is the satisfaction that comes when through a willingness to help another person we ourselves grow.
Thank you to all my business partners, friends, family and colleagues for your guiding words, helping hands and open hearts.
Happy Thanksgiving to you all!

I am thankfull for my mom’s smile.
For the many lessons she taught us as we grew up - especially the one about not chasing a cat unless you are really sure it’s a cat. It wasn’t - it was a skunk!
For taking care of my brother and I when we lost our father at a very early age. For all her sacrifices.
For all the cakes, pies, bread, pasta dishes and cookies - she was the baker among 8 sisters.
We lost mom on October 26, 2007 but she now is baking for dad again.
We miss you sorely mom!

Thanks for the opportunity to express my thanks to my Lord and Saviour for shedding His Blood that I might have eternal life. I am thankful for a wife of 54 years who has been by my side thru thick and thin and has always brought joy to my heart regardless of the situation. She raised our five children alone ten years of my 20 year military career. Good health and a happy family life is hard to find in this day and age, but I can thank God He has allowed me the priviledge. Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends out in webland…

I am thankful most of all my family. If you click my link you’ll see there’s a lot of them to be thankful for. Of course I’m thankful for my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and the immeasurable gift he has given to me and all others.
I’m thankful for my friends and people I’ve met through the Internet over the years. I’ve been running an off again on again newsletter and surprisingly enough, I’ve got about 50 people who have been with me a long, long time.
I’m thankful for the IM community. There are a lot of great men and women in IM that are willing to help answer (dumb) questions and give great advice.
I’m thankful for my computer skills. They have helped me create a multiple 6 figure income (not from IM) over the last couple of years all from taking computers in High School. Thanks Mr. Hill!
Thank you for the service you provide us. I don’t take advantage of it as much as I should, but I’ve learned a lot from the products I have looked at.
Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays!
Best Wishes,
Charles “StayHomeDad”

I thank God for His love, for my life, for my loving family, and for the opportunities He granted to me.
I am interested in internet marketing and for a number of months now, I spent countless hours reading a lot on websites, sales copies, pdfs and ebooks - most are hypes and few are worthwhile. The experience is like walking in a mine field. However, I thank God for leading me to few sites I feel I can trust and gave me resolve to go on and start one. One of these and foremost is Surefire and the owner Jeremy Gislason.
Best wishes and thank you, Jeremy.
