So last saturday I took my wife to see the movie “21″. I thought it was pretty good. I started coughing during the movie and later that night had trouble sleeping… Sunday night had a high fever and serious congestion… flu coming on. GREAT I have not been sick for ever and now the week of the elite retreat it comes on. I started dosing vitamin c pretty hard and also got on some anti-biotics. Monday rolled around and I was like totally bed ridden. I wanted to do a really good job on the April fools day “Make 1,000.00 in a day” thing but unfortunately I never even made it out of bed. The one I posted was like 2 weeks old and was a rehearsal. It seemed to do pretty good though. Its the 3rd most viewed page on shoemoney.com so far in 2008 and got a lot of pageviews on youtube and even 3 honors (most viewed, most commented, most linked etc) although i expect those to go away as time progresses.
Im kind of bummed cause I totally love april fools day. And even though I got that post up I really wanted to do a better job. O well.
Anyway health wise I am feeling much better. Will be totally good to go for the elite retreat. I would like to thank everyone on twitter for there well wishes and help with quick remedies !!

Hey it was a good post anyway, it had me fooled for about 0.001 seconds.
it was funny regardless, hope you feel better soon (and that you don’t give it to your wife or the little one)
I liked it, and I don’t much care for April Foolz shizznit.
This post might help you man. Gave me some good tips when I got the flu.
10 Healthy Things You Must Do When You Are Sick
Hope you feel better soon.
TDM
Health remedies? … whisky. Lots of whisky.
I thought it was hilarious, “tying things up, nuts and money flying all over” lol
Hey Shoe, sucks about being sick… I’ve been sick all week too.. I’m with you on the stuffiness and congestion now. I rarely get sick too… figures it happens to us both during ER!
You’ll be good to go in San Francisco. To great success at the Elite Retreat!
Hope you get better by Elite Retreat as well. All those high dollar attenders are depending on you to reveal your secrets.
Great Aprils fool video. You need to take in lots of fluid.
The video was excellent. At first I thought it was the ad on the sidebar making noise because it had images of static showing up. Then I looked at the time.
zzzzZZZZZzzzzzZZZZzzzz no one cares
There is remedy i heard from the my boss – vodka mixed with bits of onion. I asked him was this one a joke, but he still looks serious when we talking about.
that vid was great ! get well
Shoe, I had that last month. It’s been a tough year for the flu. I always use Airborne and Zicam and it knocks it out of your system faster. Get well….elite retreat will be awesome.
that video was an april fools joke? i filtered out the static and applied the techniques you gave and i am currently making money hand over fist on my facebook and myspace pages. huh . . that’s weird
It was good 1 april joke, i never saw this kind of nozy audio type
Hope you get better!
It was decent. Static was a bit loud. Maybe just drowning the sound out would have been better…
Yeah, I figured the video was a joke… Just get better soon so you can update us with the events.. Don’t feel upset because there will always be another april 1st next year.
How about Vodka?
Same here
Ouch!
Hope you get well soon Jeremy. Grab a couple of whiskys.
The video? Well you do it better in 20 secs than JC in 20 years. :p
lol. I knew that was an april fool prank.
Hope you get better soon and make some interesting articles and not the one like this
HEY SHOEMONEY I FUCKEN LOVE YOU MAN LOOKIE LOOKIE WHAT I GOT!

Shoemoney thats for showing me the WTW contest! I WON!!!
The flu is a virus, not a bacterial infection. Anti-biotics won’t help. They’ll screw up your digestive system if you take’em too much, be careful.
the 1000$/hour video turned out ok. i’m glad your flu is gone and you feel better
Yep, You need to take in lots of fluid…
Ah, feel better! The video wasn’t that bad at all.. thought it was decent!
Well glad to know that you are feeling better. I can’t wait to here about all the exciting things from the elite retreat.
You did get an emai from me about the vid I should have known that you guys run a tighter ship than letting a messed up video slip through. Good One.
Ah Dang man! I hope you feel better!
I hear you there… I just got over that…
Well just popped off the old penicilin myself a few days ago, so I’m there with all of that. Re the retreat, I’ve made a deal with myself that if I make enough money to go next year, I’m there (provided it’s still on!). Anyway, even though I’ve only made $0.84 since I started four months ago, I’m a praying Shoemoney! I’m a praying!
Sorry to hear that you’re sick. If you know it’s flu, you have to get to a clinic quick and get a scrip for Tamiflu. The stuff works (except that some flu is now tamiflu-resistant). But you have to hit it in the first 48 or it’s no good.
I have heard Echinacea works well to lessen the symptoms if you take it as soon as you feel something coming on and it prevents it form getting worse. I haven’t tested this so I’m not exactly sure if it works or not.

I think this is the fever of that 1k/hour video.
Theraflu is the only thing that works for me.
Perhaps this is payback for the video!
I was hopping to hear more about your thoughts on “21″.
I am going to see it soon, hope it is a
awsomegood as it looks!I saw 21 the other day, anything with vegas, hot women and money is a great film in my book
