The "Bailout Billionaire' Real Secret
I just watched a video and am frankly blown away.
The video was a one-on-one "chat" where self-made billionaire Bill Bartmann (formerly #25 on Forbes list of wealthiest Americans) shared his #1 secret for making money during a "bad" economy, like we have today.
His method is absolutely brilliant (and not what you think) - you can check it out yourself at...

I think part of the reason I'm blown away is that it really dawned on me that Bill made his fortune not because he was so brilliant (he was a high-school dropout) but rather because he spit in the eye of "conventional wisdom."
At the time EVERYONE thought he was stupid. A few billion dollars later, I think he got the last laugh.
Judge for yourself and let me know what you think -- [AD LINK REMOVED]
Enjoy!
