      This reads like copy straight from Onion. Or a Steve Colbert "Platinum Club" bit.


      You're joking, right? If you're not, I feel sad for you and your shallow, materialistic members.


      p.s. The plural possessive form of "member" is members'. There are several other usage and grammatical errors, suggest hiring a proof reader for the website.

        P.S we are having a party at Mantra Sponsored by Lamborghini (damn
        did i spell that right?) If you got it flaunt it and let people
        like Jeff feel so much envy they turn green.
        Lets all go see what Jeff has accomplished with his life shall we? Oh wait his profile is private???
        WOW i hoping to recieve an English lesson out of it, if not its all
        good i do know how to spell SUCCESS!
        There are some very powerful people that believe in this idea hence
        my recent partnership. Do your research and see why the affluent
        are turning to private social networks. Maybe to avoid people like
        Jeff. Negative nasty people that really should watch what they say.
        CHEERS TO JEFF!

            Jeff,
            I was going to ignore you but i have to get this off of my chest.
            After all this is the entrepreneurs club so im going to keep it
            real and speak my mind this last time.
            I came from nothing born and raised in Mattapan Ma aka Merderpan.
            If you are from Ma, im sure you hear about the shootings on your
            local news at any given time.
            Any who I never went to collage and got a job driving the Green
            Line Trolleys for the good ol MBTA. Did that for three hellish
            years.That really sucked driving those trains especially on the C
            line!!
            Moved to Miami to become a fashion photographer and became a damn
            good one. Made lots of powerful connections all over the world
            many of whom were wealthy people.
            To make a long story short i worked my butt off to be were i am
            now, i payed my f-ing dues brother. I was not born with a silver
            spoon in my damn mouth man. I know how it feels to be broke and
            hungry do you??
            I found out that its not what you know but who you know!! Now Jeff
            i can hire an army of proof readers for my site and by the way we
            actually did lol the site is going through a face lift.
            Sorry people for the rambling but someone has to keep it real on
            here, I am a true Bostonian and entrepreneur thats been around the
            world. I have the support from the people who matter in my life.
            God knows it was not easy!

      Kevin, 1st, let me say congratulation to your successes. I'm happy to see a brotha making it in this dog-eat-dog world.

      Furthermore, I am a fan of extreme Italian cars - and the new Lamabo's in particular. My hat off to you if you should be lucky enough to own one. I've sure you would be the envy of most people sporting that sweet bitch.

      That said, it is, in many circles, consider poor taste to "over-bling" your success & money in today's society. If you are completely confident in what you have achieved, is it necessary tell the world the what, where & how of your "bling" process? Just do it brotha and to hell with what every one else says. You don't need anyone's approval. Just do it.

      Lastly, by posting on a BB of this nature, us non-Lambo owners have a free ticket to flame you. So "DON'T" take it personally. It might be best to find a more exclusive venue to advertise your successes. That way, you will avoid the heat.

      Again, congrats on your successes, and the next time you hit 200 MPH is your Lambo, remember the less fortunate with a small nod of humility & generosity. Humility and generosity are the next step of human progression; post-success. Just look at Bill Gates and his philanthropic foundation to understand the concept.

      Play it forward brotha.....


      a John of many John's in San Francisco.

        EnvyMe is just starting out and we have every intention of "GIVING
        BACK" to the community. I am a path finder and i never asked anyone
        for anything! I made my own way in life and was tired of being
        second. I Envied guys doing it BIG in life. For anyone interested
        please read this article on "IN PRAISE OF ENVY" by Robert J. Lewis. you can find
        it here..




        http://www.artsandopinion.com/2007_v6_n1/......
        "When we are young we are encouraged to emulate our heroes; as
        adults, in our chosen field, to emulate our betters because we
        implicitly understand that improving our lot or advantage confers
        happiness, which is the reward, and if we fail to either relieve or
        out think our envy,
        we'll forfeit
        that
        happiness."
        When i was in high school i Envied the athletes because they got
        all the girls so i learned how to play football. When i graduated i
        Envied the guys with the hot cars so i got a better job and bought
        a cherry red Camaro. Envy is not bad its all about perception and
        how you view your situation in life. When you don't like something
        CHANGE IT!!
        I once saw this older handsome white guy on Newbury St. He was the
        ENVY of the crowd sporting a black convertible Lamborghini
        Murcielago Roadster. Riding shotgun was a HOT younger
        chick. WOW i said to myself "Now this guy is the SHIT!! I didn't
        hate him i wanted to get on his level and here i am 2 years later.
        I am a black man and the stats say i should be dead or in jail. I
        defied those odds and im just celebrating life. People dont have to
        Envy ME but use me as an example that dreams can come true if you
        fight hard enough for them.
        As for the people who do not understand let me put it to you this
        way. The luxury market is not effected by the economy SOOO with
        that said i exploited the luxury market GET iT???
        Its not rocket science people, its called take advantage of what
        you know.
        Life is what we make it and we all have the power to do whatever we
        want to do. Dont get mad just work your butt off to get what you
        want out of life.
        Ok so in closing EnvyMe.tv will be THE MOST EXCLUSIVE AND SOCIALLY
        CONTROVERSIAL PRIVATE NETWORK IN THE WORLD! Hate it or love it, its
        here and people LOVE to flaunt. Its up to you weather you Envy them
        or not.

          Kevin, again, my hat off to you for clawing your way to a comfortable level of success. It's the American way to strive for what your desire.

          That said, perhaps its due to the fact that I am somewhat ol'school, that your message, while self-promoting, lacks a tenure of social values we have come to appreciate.

          I share your interest in many thing material. However, the way we wear our materials is what defines us.

          When I was 19 I purchased my 1st car. It was a 1965 XKE Jaguar. I really thought I was the hot because I had this car. One day, while washing & waxing the car, my mother came over and said, "Don't let that car define who you are as a man..." These were the wises words she ever spoke.

          Now, I am saying them to you Kevin. "Don't let your materials possessions define who you are as a man..." The reason being, someone can always take materials items away from you. That leaves you with nothing. Build the content of your character moral fiber and you'll be respected for who you are.... not what you own.

          Lastly, I suspect it is "respect" not material goods that you are ultimately seeking.... And that is a journey far more difficult to travel than one of acquisitions.

          Good luck my brotha....

          Kevin, Again, you are a shinning example of what we now term "The Self-Starter"....! That's a person that doesn't wait for direction, and has the initiative to get out into the world and make things happen via his own drive and innovation. America was built by Self-Starters. Benjamin Franklin was a Self-Starter; as were many other historic Americans. Your type of initiative is the back-bone to ever technological breakthrough in America. Way to go.....


          There's an article in the New York Times titled "The Snare of Privilege".

          http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/25/weekinr...


          If you can't get to it, I can post it via copy & paste. It discusses how American society views privilege as a political element. What is interesting about the theme of the article is that it also applies to the American social structure as well. We are a nation of dichotomies. We promote and condemn in the same breath. We say go forth and become successful - while saying "once you have wealth, remember where you came from and give it back".


          As America is somewhat of a spin-off nation from Europe (500 years ago), we are compared to them in all ways. The Europeans never had these kinds of wealth issues. Wealth was (and is) past from generation-to-generation as a way of life in Europe, and there is no social fall-out. Not so here in the US. While we pursue wealth as a daily routine, we are careful not to be labeled wasteful or to flaunt it. By US standards, its consider a form of social crime to show off too much in America - i.e. feel too good about, and display, what you have achieved. It may sound odd, but we are a nation of many peculiarities. And it is also assumed that you pick up these lessons along the way to success. Yet, another flaw in our society.


          In closing, keep the fire burning my friend. Your journey to wealth & happiness has just begun and there are many turns in the road. I'm certain you have what it takes to become successful at whatever you pursue. Good luck...

            Envyme.tv is just an idea for a business. Envy is a very powerful emotion and not just limited to humans for the devil himself Envied the power and wisdom of God.
            I struggled for a long time and have a very strict religious upbringing. I never define myself by my material possessions, but other people seem to on their own.
            Honestly you have to know me to understand me and my business does not define me as to who i am as a person. Im actually a very shy person and i hate the spot light. I can see why people are quick to label me. This is business, an idea that came to me and a very powerful one. Im just simply working on an emotion and exploiting it a little. Envy has always been with us, and you don;t have to be wealthy to be envied. Beautiful people are envied. People with talent are envied every day. You see this is just a business for me nothing more nothing less.
            John times are changing as we all can see. I have to adapt to the times if i want to survive. There will be lots of people who will hate and love my business and thats what i wanted to bring out emotion. Envyme is all about the luxury market and the luxury lifestyle. You buy luxury not out of necessity but out of the emotion it brings. The exclusivity that us as humans love so much.

            To be honest i want to build a home in the middle of the N.H white mountains where i can live like Bruce Wayne. I love seclusion and lots of space. Currently i live in the city and i hate it.
            So in conclusion NO my business model does not describe me as a person. Im actually very opposite, no kidding!!

    I am just wondering what any of these posts have to do with entrepreneurship and the plight of the self-employed? Comments and postings on this Group Site are seemingly about everything except entrepreneurship.... parties, nightlife events, speed dating..... hmmmm... am I missing something? Why not create a "Nightlife Group" for these kinds of things? Not trying to hate ~ I am trying to get us all to appreciate!

      What you are seeing is a result of absentee ownership/moderation.

      I have brought this issue to the attention of Going management via direct email, feedback (bottom of page) and the going group, with no substantive action. Well, there were issues of alleged slander in the “Question the world†group, to which Going reacted by replacing not the absentee owner, rather inserted a new moderator.

      What is lacking is a comprehensive policy and corrective action plan.

      In a nutshell the my proposal was proactive. Determine the last login date of all group owners and moderators. If >3 months, send them a message and determine their interest in continuing their position of responsibility. If no response, place a notice on the group for candidates to replace them. Select new moderator. If no response, close down the group.

      I think that proposal is reasonable and just.

      Goings lack of response is disappointing.
