WWE(R) Thanks President Obama and General Petraeus for Holiday Messages
STAMFORD, Conn., Dec 17, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- World Wrestling Entertainment(R) would like to thank both President Obama and General Petraeus for providing the WWE(R) with taped, non-partisan holiday messages to the men and women in the US Armed Forces to be included in our annual special, "Tribute to the Troops," this Saturday on NBC at 9 PM ET. This marks the second year that the Commander in Chief has provided a special message for the troops.
For the last seven years, WWE has traveled to the Middle East to entertain troops serving overseas in appreciation for their service to our country. WWE would also like to thank all those responsible in the White House, First Lady's office and the US Central Command for making this happen.
The request process for the President's video began in April 2009, when WWE met with Trooper Sanders, Deputy Director of Policy and Projects for the First Lady. WWE continued these discussions after Labor Day as requested. In November, WWE was pleased to receive confirmation from Matt Flavin, Director of Veterans and Wounded Warrior Policy at the White House, that a Presidential message would be supplied for "Tribute to the Troops." WWE supplied background information, as well as our production and deadline needs. We received confirmation on Monday that President Obama's message had been taped, and it was delivered on Tuesday morning.
We are hopeful that everyone, especially the service men and women of the Armed Forces and their families, enjoy "Tribute to the Troops."

Sirius Raio talk to me
Now , Sirius is trading around 63 cents a share. And I do believe it will climb back up around $7 to $8 dollars a share. With that said , What eles will Sirius do for me ? Sirius Radio talk to me .
If you do not know , what I am trying to do from the stocks . That I am buying . I am going to let the cat out of the bag. Yes , I am going to spell the beans.
In the some of the past post , I have writen I am going to WAR on Million Dollars.
However, I you have to have a ARMY , to fight a WAR. Think of it this way . Every Dollar , CD , Silver Proof Coin and Gold coins . Along with the Stock i have been buying. Are soldiers and weapons of mass destruction in my ARMY.
No , I will not use the riches to evil things . But to improve my life and my sons life. And not just us. Many others aswell. Such as my mom .
Going to WAR , is to back the down the system that keeps us poor. This a great country and I hope to leave my mark on this Country. Like Warren Buffet and Bill Gates , have.
So , this brings me back to the Head Line in this post. Sirius radio talk to me , how much of the battle will you fight me ? In this WAR. I am here to win this battle. Their will be no mercy ! To the system and the ones who run the system that keeps us poor.
I am not saying that their our OLD WHITE MEN with GREY HAIR that is controling our lives. What I am saying I had to stop my way of thinking . I have to do it for myself.
Nobody will give me anything. I HAVE TO DO IT MYSELF !!!!!!!
If I want to make Million dollars . Then I will have to make it myself. I will not win the lottery or win it in the casino. It takes hard work and knowledge. I have been working hard sence I was 18. But , I did not have the knowledge.
Now , I am starting to learn . I am ready to fight for my right. My Right to have the American Dream , my very own " Yes, I CAN " !!!!!
YES, I CAN make a Millon Dollars , and brake these cains of living paycheck to paycheck.
So , the war goes on.

Go to WAR with NO FEAR
I have NO FEAR , I want to leave my mark on our world . And when I look back from my death bed , I want to be able to smile. For knowing that I helped make a diffence in our world.
To be able to leave my only son , everything that matters in our world. Pride , strength , and will to fight back , when the world brings the fight to you.
Just each and everyone of us has to do . We fight to keep going , and we have to take the hits . No matter how much they hurt us. We have to keep moving forward.
Stand your ground , fight with everything that you have . Learn as much as you can . Life is not albout money and your bank account. It is your will to do more with what you got , to turn your true investment your life , into a great return .
Life is the WAR , the Money part is the Battle .
Fight Hard for Both !
Battle Plan to make a Million Dollar's
As soon as I can. I do not claim to be the next Warren Buffet. And if I had all the answers , I would already have millions of dollar's .
So , let me explain my battle plans .
First step , I started my buying Wal-Mart Stock , from my paycheck. Which Wal-Mart adds 15%. So , infact Lunsford Investments already makes a profit of 15%.
2nd step , I opened up my 401k plan , from work. Which again I earn another 15%.
The 401k plan is not a sexy path to make a million dollar's. However , I the money is Invested every paycheck , and the it is a tax break every paycheck .
3rd step , I bought some Silver Proof Coins and Gold. The Silver and Gold Investment is good , but not much of a return on the Investment . However , if I would have bought Gold years ago , then Lunsford Investments , would be closer to the million dollars. Which could be the same if I , started buying stocks earlier aswell.
4th step , I opened up a free checking account . I know the free checking account will not make Lunsford Investments any money. But , it is used as a tool to move money . Which will be covered in Step 5.
5th step , I opened a Money Market account through ShareBuilder ING.
ShareBuilder , is a side company owned by ING , which is used to buy Stocks. Now , that I have a ShareBuilder account , I earn interest on the Money Market Account , which is better than a Saving's account at the Local Banks.
Now , for the best part of ShareBuiler. In Step Six.
6th Step , I signed up for Automatic Investment Plan , with ShareBuilder. Which I buy Stock every week.
7th Step , I set up the AIP , to buy different Sector's of Company's four times a mth. Such as week 1 , I buy Entertainment Company Stock.
- Regal Entertainment Group
- WWE
- Disney
- Marvel
Week 2 Teck
- Waters
- Verizon
- Leap ( Criket )
- Sprint
Week 3 Retail
- Target
- Nike
- JCPenny
- Wal-Mart
Week 4 Travel and Hotel
- Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd
- Wyndham Worldwide Corp
- Starwood Hotels & Resorts
- Host Hotels & Resorts Inc
- Carnival Corp
Week 5
- Coke
- Pepsi Co
- Pepsi Bottling Group
- Coors
- Darden
I have my AIP , set up like a Mutual Fund. I got the idea after reading the investing books that I bought. Almost every book said that the only way to make a million dollars , from investing in stocks . Is from a Mutual Funds . So , I just set up my own kind of Mutual Fund . In my own way .
8th step , I opened a Saving's Account with ING , which has a nice Interest rate. And again I know that a Saving's Account is not a Sexy Investment. However , ING added 25 dollars to my account and they gave me a week in Free Real Time Trades. So , in my eyes that was a good return on my Investment.
I will add more steps , later .
Now , Lunsford Investments is not earning 30% on my returns , like Warren Buffet.
Yet , if my math is right . I am earning about 12 to 15% , from my returns.
This the first wave of the Battle , on the War . To make a Millon Dollar's.

WAR , on making a Million Dollars.
And yes , I know , I believe I can make a million dollars in about 5 to 10 years. From investing on the Stock Market. I know this what everone says. However , I already am on my way , to earn one million.
The first thing that , I did was start my 401k account. With 1% of my job income , yes 1%. Hear me out , the next thing I did was take out 5% percent in the company stock , from my job.
So far , that 6% out of my pay-check. Which my company adds 15% per investment. For example with every 40 dollar's I invest with in the Company stock adds 6 dollars. That is a win win for me. Now , at the end of the year , my company will add 15% on to my 401k. That right is a win win for me as-well.
Now , was this enough for me ? No it is not. So , I started buying Silver Proof Coins , and Gold. I did that for a year. And Now is that enough ? No it is not .
Then I opened open up , a stock account with sharebuilder . And I have set it up my
automatic investment plan . Which I have set to buy 7 stocks a week. At which whatever dollar amount I want to invest with.
Now , is this enough ? No not yet . However , I am almodt their . Now , I have the tools , I need to learn the market. And pick and choose which companies to buy . Like I wrote , I have read books on investing . And they all say to buy Mutual Funds . Why ? My guess is that is how they make a living .
But they all say that Mutual Funds , hold about 1000 Companies in the Funds. Hmmmm , now is these Mutual Funds , spead out your money into different companies . Then why cannot I do the samething ?
The answer is Yes , I can !!!!!! Just like Obama said.
So , I have set my automatic investment plan set on about 10 differnt companies. WWE , WMT , Nike , RCL , and others like Waters.
And my map of my plan , is to buy atleast buy 10 shares from each company . Then I have another set of companies that I automatic investment in . Such as Coke , Coors , and RGC.
Now , that is set up . I have another part of my strategy . ETF's , that is part two of the War. Part three of the strategy are Bonds . And of course my Money Market Account , along with a savings account and a High Yeild Checking Account.
The War , I started on making a Mikkion Dollars is set in play . And I will fight this War till I win.
After all I have only one Life to Live , and By God I will fight to win the War.

How Do I make a Million Dollars ?
That is a question that I have been asking myself for a long time . Well , I wish I had the answer. To it. I am not going to say invest your money. Or start your own business.
Because everyone will say that. What I will say , do not give up . In whatever your dream maybe. Take time to and plan . Join a group of people that share the same dream . Network , yourself. I do not have a million dollars. I do stay on the track , and I do adjust my goals , so my dream does come true.
I read a blog a few days ago , and this woman said that her saved enough money , to have million. The woman said it was no big deal. I felt like picking up my Labtop , and throwing it across the room .
How can that not be a big deal ? If it is not a big deal , then why are their shows on making a million dollars and books.
My dream is to become a rich man for my son. And to take of him long after am gone. Not only that , but to make a real differnce in this world.
Well , work hard on your goals , and you can make a million dollars.

Waters Corporation Stock
Royal Caribbean International Stock
Yes , the water is blue and the sky is blue. However , Lunsford Investments is green. I know that Cruise Business , looks seanonal. Yet , I will disagree with that.
I have faith in this Investment. And I do believe this a great company, to invest in. I am going to recap Lunsford Investments share holdings.
Walmart , WWE , Marvel , and now Royal Caribbean International. With a strong 401k and a Money Market Account. I see nothing but clear waters a head.

Iron Man , WWE , and Walmart Triple-Threat
Now that Lunsford Investments now owns this Triple-Threat of Stocks. Lunsford Investments is going to grow far in the Investing World. Am going to put the Smack-Down on Wall-Street.
I just placed another order for all three stocks. Lunsford Investments , has NO FEAR !!!!!!!
I just do not understand why , people do not jump on the Stock Market. It is not hard just do your Homework. The first thing put money into Companies that you know. The reason I picked Walmart , is I work there. And I signed up for the Stock progam. Walmart will add 15% to what ever you buy with.
Ok , Walmart pays their workers every other week. So if you put 20 dollars in the stock purchase progam , they will add 3 dollars to your purchase.
That is how I started. What I do , is buy some Walmart stock . Let it build up to a certain amount. Then sell off half of the stock, and then I will move the money into a Money Market Account. To purchase other Stock, in different companies.
I started buying Marvel , cause I love their Movies. And when I was a kid, I loved their comics and cartoons. So I new the company and I loved their product.
WWE , has the same story as Marvel. When I was a kid , I loved watching the WWE's show. Their again I new the company and I was a fan.
The WWE and Marvel , are both in the Movie Business. And anyone who knows me , can tell you I LOVE GOING TO THE MOVIES !!!!!!
And this brings me to another couple of companies , that will invest in. Disney and Dreamworks and VIACON.
Why all three ? Cause I love all movies. And I believe that Lunsford Investments will make money , on all three.
Lunsford Investments , is putting the SMACK-DOWN on Wall Street !!!!!

Marvel Stock is now part of Lunsford Investments
I have already placed a order for Marvel stock , a week ago . Just a few days before Disney made the deal to buy Marvel. So I do feel pretty good about the stock. Now with Disney and Marvel together , am sure that the stock will stay near the 45 dollar range.
And I am thinking about buying Disney as well .
So lets recap, Lunsford Investments now owns WWE Stock, Walmart Sock, Marvel Stock and Silver Proof Coins , Gold, and my Money Market account and a 401k plan.
Not bad to start out with.
Lunsford Investments will grow and will look for a strong companies that I belive are good Investments.

Going to Maui
I the business is doing so well. I am planing a vaction. Yes , I am going to Maui. I have always wanted to see Hawaii.
And now , that I am making good money on my investments. I have booked a vaction in Maui.
It feels Damn Good , to say that my Investment Business , is doing that good that I can take a vaction to Hawaii.
Lunsford Investments, has just opened a Money Market Account
Now , with my Wal-Mart Stock , 401k , Silver Proof Coins , and my WWE Stocks. Lunsford Investments , now has a Money Market Account. To add to the
Portfolio.
The Money Market Account , is going to be used as a tool , to buy more stocks. And to earn dividends. Next for Lunsford Investments , is another checking account and another savings account.
I already have both for personal use. Now , I need to open a savings and checking , for the business.
So my Investing Business is doing well.
When I invest more , and into what companies , I will let my readers know.
Lunsford Investments has just moved Forward
Working for Wal-Mart , I buy Wal-Mart Stock , through their Stock Opp Plan . So I have about 100 shares so far. And I have been buying Silver Proof Coins as well.
However , that is not enough for Lunsford Investments. So I have been trying to find a good way to buy different stock , from other companies.
I have been looking for a while , along time . After I am in a business to make money.
Now I found the right Bank, for me to buy stock through. ING's ShareBuilder. ShareBuilder, is perfect for me.
It lets me buy, in Dollar's not shares. And, if I only want to buy $20.00 at a time . Then I can.
Only four Dollars a trade.
Needless to say I opened account with Sharebuilder, and I bought 10 Shares of WWE Stock.
Alright, do not laugh. WWE, makes money . And yes , I do watch the shows when I can.
WWE stock was trading right under $15.00 a share , so I spent right under $150.00.
And I have now have a way to increase , my Company's Business.
First Rule in my Business ,
MAKE MONEY !!!!!
Second Rule ,
MAKE MONEY !!!!!
Third Rule ,
MAKE MONEY !!!!!
