Moment of respect for the dead.
Alright...How many J. VanAndel statues will be erected in Grand Rapids? I say he gets a mural, a park, and a church.
McCheese,
You certainly are a classy guy!
Hats off to a person (Van Andel) who contributed greatly to the city of Grand Rapids.
He's already got the Van Andel Museum, the Van Andel Institute, and the Van Andel Arena.
New survey for locals or former residents:
Name the things in Grand Rapids that you would like named after him.
My vote is for the Fish Ladder.
Hope your blogs impact as many lives as his did.
That's right pj. van andels' life has had an amazing financial impact on a handful of select people. but this has been to the detriment of many many more who have been chasing an impossible 'am-quix' diamond dream. i wonder how many bankruptcy parties and ruined marriages have resulted from van andels' legacy?
I am very much against the King pin Tool system and all that goes on, but come on Jay Van Andel and Rich Devos really tried to help the average man. If you listen to any old tapes of them the talk is completely different than the Kingpins.
To blast him about statues etc. is wrong, I am glad he had money to give away.
The only thing I see he did wrong is let the Kingpins get away with an illegal "system" pyramid.
"To blast him about statues etc. is wrong"
Who is blasting him? I'm dead serious about the statues and renaming the fish ladder.
PJ:
When you say impacts, do you mean "positively" or "negatively"?
I think the dialog generated by QBlog is of great value to those seeking the truth about the A/Q scam.
Of course, this comes at the expense of the image and lost opportunity of the brainwashed masses in A/Q.
That said, the net result is a substancial positive impact.
Does it equal the wealth generated and distributed to a select few? I dunno. But I do know that I've never seen a U-Haul attached to a hearse.
That is, you can't take it with you when you're gone. No statues, no arenas, no piles of cash.
The example you have been edify-ing left tens of thousands of people in a worse personal and financial situation than when they started his scam.
You tell me, is that a legacy to be proud of?
I just would like to say, I work for alticor in Ada Michigan. I work in the factories that make all the
fine products that the IBO's Buy and enjoy. If it wasnt for the IBO's and the devotion of the families to keep Alticor running There would be alot of average people making a good living out of Jobs. God bless them all. >Just a adverage worker.
First off, I am associated with Quixtar, and although I am not "rich" yet, it has impacted my life for the better more than any one other thing has, aside from Jesus Christ. The Quixtar opprotunity is available to anyone, and Diamond is achievable for anyone who WORKS to get it done. I am sick of weaklings coming to a website and posting whatever crap they have about any business that they don't have the diligence to do.
I have seen many people go from nothing, to being much better off through this business, and I have even seen some go from nothing, to being very wealthy. I have personally helped people with health challenges through using the products in this business.
The Federal Trade Commission has reviewed our business model, and not only said that it was acceptable, but also desirable for the economy! I'd say that is far from a scam. And everything you buy has a money-back guarantee... how can you go wrong? The ignorance that some people display baffles me.
No way we can stay at Iraq for another minute! We should get out of here and sto these games - terror is not there, it is in Afganisgtan.
dang your fast.
must be on news alert from google....
I would expect your visitor count to go up for a few days.
