Did Columbus Wear Shades?

by Chad Weber on April 9, 2008

Good afternoon,

I must say that I just had one of the weirdest mental images of my life. As I was waiting for the latest FSBO video to upload, I was browsing through a book of “strange but true” facts… Did you know that sunglasses date back to the 15th century? They were worn in China by judges to conceal their expressions while presiding court.

Great… Just what I needed. A mental image of Christopher Columbus bumping into America with a pair of BluBlockers on… Yep, that’s how my mind works! :)

Ok, back to the matter at hand. Post number 6 is now available at www.fsboleadportal.com/blog - This video provides a case study of one of my students who went from considering leaving the industry, to generating 73 leads in one week (Not to mention doubling his closings)

Enjoy the video!

  • Another Colombus fact.... when Colombus arrived in Jamaica, the natives wouldn't give him and his men food... so after consulting his almanac he was aware of a pending eclipse of the moon.... he then told the natives that god was very upset for not helping with food and would thus be punishing them by taking the moon away..... sure enough, a day later the eclipse came and the natives begged to bring the moon back and gave Colombus food......
  • Trace... You left something out. They didn't pick up on his deception because he did all of the above without ever removing his shades... They could never look him in the eye.
