Serious question. Does anyone know where I can buy or find Gary benzinga ads so I can study them. (Besides on the swipe website).
I already finished those. If so please let me know. Thank you in advanced!

You can buy Gary’s course if he still sells it, but that’s $5,000.

Thanks for the olive oil website David. I love the copy!
Everyday I learn more and more that you don’t just need to struggle finding dates or struggle to get in shape to have pain points. Some people just want some damn good olive oil!
