<em>A letter from our President, Millionaire Richard Quick, Esq.</em><span id="more-448"></span><script type="text/javascript"><!--

</script></p>
<p>When I’m sitting on the veranda of my multimillion-dollar home with my family all close around me, I ask myself: What is success?</p>
<p>To me, success is not about my Mercedes, Jaguar or Porsche.</p>
<p>It’s not about my houses in Aruba or Tahiti or the furnished apartment for my mistress.<img id="image27" title="image002.jpg" src="http://www.franworst.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/11/image002.thumbnail.jpg" alt="image002.jpg" align="right" /></p>
<p>Success is not about jewels, and fine suits and boats at all.</p>
<p>No, success is about <em>owning</em> those things. And having enough money left over to buy more.</p>
<p>I’ve learned that the secret to success is your people. And I don’t just mean uncovering their most damaging secrets or their inner weaknesses and exploiting them for monetary gain. I also mean discovering their potential, however feeble or noxious, nurturing it and figuring out how to use that for monetary gain.</p>
<p><img id="image19" title="angus4conn.jpg" src="http://www.franworst.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/11/angus4conn.jpg" alt="angus4conn.jpg" align="left" />I’ve also learned to never underestimate people. I remember when Milton Deebler showed up at my door. My first reaction was to call security, which our maid Consuela had already done. Even after we had him arrested several times he kept coming back.</p>
<p>Deebler had a quality called persistence. My ex-wife said he wanted a franchise and that maybe we should give him a shot. I said, &#8220;You give him a shot, you old hag. You&#8217;re outta your freakin&#8217; mind.&#8221;</p>
<p>But I looked again at Deebler and recognized that he had something very special that he carried with him wherever he went. It was a shoebox full of money. I told him to leave it on the steps, and I sent him on a quest to get another just like it. Then I sent him for another… and another.</p>
<p><img id="image29" title="bucks.jpg" src="http://www.franworst.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/11/bucks.jpg" alt="bucks.jpg" align="right" />His persistence paid off and he’s now a valuable FRANWORST franchisee. I don’t know where he gets it, I don’t want to know and that’s not the point.</p>
<p>The point is that now when I see Milton, I no longer have him arrested. I say, “Hello, Mr. Deebler. Is that a new cologne I detect on you? Please just leave the shoebox on the steps, back away slowly with your hands in plain sight and have a great day!”</p>
<p>The point is: If Milton Deebler could make it this far with the FRANWORST franchise program, just think what you could do!</p>
