Am still thinking on how to contact Curtis Caroll, but dont know if hes still in prison or not,, does he have a book on stocks market or does he have a DVDs? am so curious to contact him or meet with him, so that he can mentor me.
I am pretty sure by now you are able to contact him but just incase do search under his name he has pages in Facebook, Instagram and even more videos on RU-vid so u will find easy way to contact him. Unfortunately he is still in prison, just curious what is the whole purpose of having a prison in this country? I guess it's to punish people and for investors to make more money from tax payers not to reform the criminals.
Figures don't lie, liars figure! Pros get paid what they are worth not what the job is worth. The hardest door to open is your car door. The first call of the day is the hardest. I never worked for a prize. I worked for pride. People ask "How do you know you knock over a million doors?" What get's tracked gets done. Never let others reach in your wallet with negative attitudes. Managing a team? Speed of the gang is spend of the leader. Readers are Leaders! Always keep feeding your mind. I'll out work others and out play them. WE ARE POSITIVE!
