What makes you look up to somebody?
 

Every day I see people that I have never even met who show their support me for. I have seen the same things involving MANY other people as well. What is it that makes you look up to these people?

More importantly...Who do many of you have your lips planted so firmly on our asses?

I just don't get it.

You think you know me? I can count the number of GFY members who have been to my house on one hand and still have enough fingers left to flip you off and hitch a ride on the freeway.

Don't get me wrong...I appreciate the support but exactly what is it that you think you are supporting?

Who are you?


:winkwink:

look up to is too strong of a term...i respect people who don't bring unwanted attention to themselves

postcount :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I look up to hot chicks, wearing short skirts, that are on ladders, stairs, and escalators

People always look up to others who are more successfull than them. If for anything else, a chance to find out the secret to that success and copy it.

EXACTLY!

when u support tdf your supporting niggas off welfare.Keep TDF off the streets and jacking people and keep my big ass behind the computer..

I look up to people that make alot of money.

:thumbsup

I don't look up to anyone, I feel I need to set the standards for myself.

Fair answer.

Who, in this business, do you look up to?

If I like how they made it and want to achieve their level of success.
Something I hope never to be and don't look up too are minions... people who work for other people etc... I want to work for myself ALWAYS and achieve it on my own.

Interesting way of looking at it. I see your point and wish you luck.

They're taller than me.

lol

that too

Honesty.

Not being a prick.

Doesnt call people newbies.

Maybe they've seen your pictures and just have a boner for you?

Bah...I should have known not to start a serious thread on a board that is over populated with idiots.

My bad.

Carry on.

is there some kind of adoption program so us crackas can appease our guilt?

What's wrong with calling somebody a newbie? I'm still a newbie for Christ's sake and I don't mind pointing that out.

IF you show respect, then respect should come back to you, if not then they are not worthy of your attention.

I dont look up to anyone, I do respect certain people. And that mostly comes down to things like vision, creativity and inteligence.

Looking up is for the smaller people, I want to learn but looking up sound like you feel smaller or less then somebody else

If no one ever gave a shit about anyone...

We all wouldnt be where we are today.

No one knows why they find an appreciation for someone but they just do.
Influences can be money, respect, honesty but above all an agreement in perspective views is a popular initiator.

The bottom line in any kinda relationship is the one that has somthing the other may want or somthing they believe they can learn from.
To make it come together both parties must each have somthing both individuals want from one another.

So Aaron...

I do not know your ass hardly at all however...
You have done things I admire, you have done things I wish I could.

Your not a super hero but none the less your someone I think I can learn somthing from and already have:thumbsup

So there.
Like it or not bud!

the reported eight grand for a sig?

Someone who runs their business ethically while remaining profitable and preference for those who are willing to share their knowledge or their areas of expertise. For example, KRL. He's been successful, and shares his experiences and expertise with the people on GFY. Makes me look up to him.

Honest answer Aaron..I ask myself this almost daily.

I see people who have never posted before jumping in on threads supporting one gfy member over another and wondering who the hell they are.

I think it serves 2 purposes...

1 to kiss yours or someone else's ass

2 to make it look like they are part of the "in" crowd.

edited to add: and I'm sure there are some people who genuinely admire you and others.

You have made your place in this biz and are successful so that has something to do with it.

well, I have never been to your home, so I am not ecaxtly sure where I stand on the food chain

Nice answer. :thumbsup



8.5 But so what? That's about as meaningful as a high post count.

Honest answer, I don't look up to anyone that I can think of. I do have much respect and appreciation for hardworking intelligent people who take care of business instead of complaining about how everything sucks and how unfair life is. So what if it was easier 5 years ago, if you are smart you'll take advantage of what you have today. If your shit don't work fix it.

Some people can be silly, but it was a good question. Lots of perspectives out there. Don't be discouraged by some having fun. A lot of people don't like to discuss serious issues besides what they're doing in an hour or what was funny on television. I know a lot of people that don't want to talk about what you're thinking about or how you feel that day. It doesn't make them uncaring or unsupportive, they just don't want to discuss it. ;-)

I've always looked up to LegendaryLars, for years he's taken the time to talk with me at length about ideas or new innovative ways to make money. He's earned my respect hundreds of times over and would be hard pressed to lose it.

He's the most prominent example of people I look up to, it's generally extremely well earned.

I would trust you with my life, money, AND wife (If I still had one). Does that tell you where you stand?

I look up to those that have turned coal into diamonds.

:1orglaugh

In all honesty that's a tough question. I don't know if there really is anyone I truly, truly look up to in this biz. Lots of people have accomplished a lot in this biz and I have respect for what they've done. But to say I actually "look up to someone" is almost like saying you think they are better than you. Not to sound overly cocky and full of himself, but I really don't think anyone is better than me. What I mean by that is I feel I'm EQUAL to anyone else and those that have accomplished more just had a different opportunity (timing etc.).

How about this. The person I have by far the MOST resepct for in this business is my buddy RichC from Maxcash. He's taught me all I know about Traffic and I appreciate all he's shared with me. But most importantly I respect the fact that I've seen him come up with KICK ASS marketing, sales techniques right out of his ass.

But he's friend so you don't exactly "look up' to your friends. You have respect for them and in this case I have a LOT of respect for him.

Anyways...that's my long winded post, lol

:thumbsup

pics?

Anyone who is taller than 6'4" I tend to look up to. <img SRC="http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/biggrin.gif">


There are regular posters here who have, over time, proven themselves to be sensible and intelligent over various topics and issues. If I come off like I support them in certain threads it is usually because I have a measure of respect for them, I can identify with the hard work they have put into their business, and/or I feel a certain bond of friendliness or comeradery even though I've never met them in person.

I give what I get.

If a person comes at me like an arrogant prick, I deal with them accordingly. Period. If they deal me straight and don't come off like a mouthy dipshit they get my friendlier side. I tend to identify more with people of the same line of thinking as that..... like yourself. Straight fucking shooter, for the most part reasonable yet pulls no punches.


Not much room for asskissing with that sort of gameplan.

What? You only bitchass !
