What's Next, George? - How One Man Turned Pastimes Into Paychecks (Paperback)


As I learned and observed, I discovered that the oil business was similar to going to Atlantic City and gambling in the casinos. Even if at times you won big, eventually there'd be a losing streak that would leave you broke. I am not a gambler in the sense that I'll play the slots or the roulette wheel, so with the realization that I was in a business that was just as much a gamble as the gaming tables, I decided it was time to get out. Some of my investors who had hit oil didn't like the news that I was closing up shop. But within three months when the bottom fell out of the entire oil industry in the States, and they wanted to understand how I knew to quit. The only answer I could give them was that the Lord was directing me in some mysterious way. Want to turn your hobby into a lucrative career? This is an inspirational book for every would-be entrepreneur who's ready to get up off the couch and get to work Meet George Campbell, the ultimate Renaissance man. With a work ethic instilled in him by his dad, George has successfully translated what he does for fun into business after business. Walk a mile in his shoes and you'll wear yourself out George has partnered with his dad to cut salt hay, started a private gunning preserve, built homes and subdivisions, gotten investors and drilled oil wells in Kentucky and Indiana, operated a crabbing business and a miniature golf course, and now sells his own ceramic art. You'll be invigorated to take on life's challenges and find yourself asking What's Next, George?
