Hi - I'm an entrepreneur from Chicago who grew up with 'The Mob' ....

in #introducemyself7 years ago (edited)

My name really is Glory B., and I haven't had a good nights sleep since Lehman was sacrificed in the '08 financial melt-down.

A life-long entrepreneur, I've always somehow chosen the path of service to others - and its been so much fun!
My early years were spent in the restaurant business, and as a real estate investor. I've always done my own legal "work" since discovering early on, you can rarely find an attorney to actually work FOR you (on your behalf) seeing as how they are ...."officers of the court".
Toward the end of my twenties, I decided to become licensed as a Realtor - but quickly bored with the practice of residential real estate while naturally gravitating toward commercial through and because of my circle of influence. I quickly became known as the "commercial specialist" in my little office.
My broker was a retired commander from the Navy, and an AA member who "christened" me with the name of Glory B. I hadn't been married all that long, and was shocked the first day I came in to find the latest MLS book (they were the size city phone books used to be, filled with all of the listings) with my name written across it 'Glory B' - you just can't make this stuff up.
Prior to that, I'd had a name with the same initials as a major car manufacturer, but I really felt this was a step up - just a little twisted...and absolute reality.

Working with and in commercial real estate eventually led to commercial real estate lending and business loans, and I established a very nice business for myself and better life for my children - creating a truly home-based and "virtual" business (once which had always traditionally been brick/mortar) way back in the 90's!
A few years after that, I ditched the Xerox free-standing copy machine and went paperless - technology is great!

A one stop shop, I worked with my clients from the initial inquiry and discussion about their entrepreneurial dreams and goals - all the way to their successful funding and closing.
My expertise encompassed all areas of this complicated venture from business plan creation with projections and explanations, to credit resolution/restoration, contract negotiation, resume creation, underwriting satisfaction, and all phases of packaging required to fund their request. I had a LOT of FUN - and every day/deal was different!
"Do what you love, and the money will follow" has always been a motto near and dear to me and one by which I've lived my life.
As fate would have it, my first client was an Illinois state lottery winner of $20,000,000 who's since been murdered....

It was all great right up until the second week of January, 2007. I'm not going to go into all the drama of the complete panic and utter terror I personally witnessed during the next eighteen months to when we came to within 30 minutes of a complete global systemic collapse, but I can most certainly assure you - nothing has ever since been "fixed". Its been an entire decade of 'Extend & Pretend' - and I've never been more excited in all my life!

Why, you might ask? Because what we're ALL currently living through is a Paradigm Shift.
Or, 'The Event'. #TheEvent

All of my adventures have been with the full knowledge that I'm a Spiritual Being having a human experience. As such, I've lived a life without much in the way of "fear" or concern of others opinions or judgment holding me back - and as though the 'Devil was chasing me'...as the mother of my childhood best friend would say.
I was once married to a 33rd Degree Mason, early on and quite briefly when my social circle consisted of the Chicago Mob and their counterparts who were paid to do as they joked "serve and collect".
I now look back on it fondly, and consider it to have been a part of my "training" - I am on a Mission.

Being too young in the 60's protected me from getting into too much "trouble" - but I had a front seat to it all.
I witnessed some of the biggest events of the century right in my home town, including the 1968 Democratic Convention where the late great Richie Elrod with whom we regularly brunched and dined and whom was a guest at my wedding a decade later - after having been hit in the head with a lead pipe (while standing next to my future husband who was disguised as a hippie for the convention) was put into a wheelchair for the rest of his life.
Speaking of "lead pipes", there was also the famous commander John Burge (who's promotion party I attended) and later became famous for them when they scapegoated him...

And, the Governor who "walked" was our friend and pro-bono divorce attorney that later went on to make license plates.
All I can say is .... "Dirty Harry" is NOT just a movie. #CriminalInjusticeSystem

I hung with a very "interesting crowd" that I became accustomed to seeing fairly often on local TV and print. Being in the restaurant business, I also knew many of those in sports and it was really fun watching the Bears win the 86 Superbowl.
Walter Peyton used to play the drums, and our band would often invite him to sit in just for kicks. He opened a place of his own not too far away - "Studebakers" and I think it was probably the best 'Opening Night' I'd ever attended!
I worked with many "celebrities" over the years - including Chaka Khan who was just the 'lounge act that month' at one of the restaurants I worked in when young. A dynamite joint where local journalist Irv Kupcinet and his wife would always ask to sit with me, and we'd prepare and flame dishes table-side to their delight.
#ChicagoLandmarkRestaurants

Then there were those I just knew in passing and would sometimes appear in 'Wanted' posters.
A couple who were found shot in trunks of their Cadilacs, and one who even got shot in the head - while in "police protection"...and lived!
Speaking of "protection" that was a huge and very lucrative racket going on here in Chicago - back in the day, between the two factions running the city before Greylord was brought in by 3-letter agencies protecting their Drug Lord 'masters'.
Do you by any chance know who is/was the biggest dealer in the world? We'll get to that later....
#TheBoyz

I was led into the belly of the biggest beast with lending working with high-level banksters, hedge-fund companies. unions, pension fund managers, and the government.
But, it "all" really started at age 3 - and it's been a non-stop whirlwind of over a half-century filled with Miracles and Manifestations.
Have you ever been told that "You have to have Faith" - you can't. I don't believe its possible.
But, you absolutely can develop it - based on actual experience...in my opinion. This is a fun topic to explore!
#MiraclesAndManifestations

I have always had the teacher appear, at the appropriate time - and one that really helped me to see just what exactly I'd gotten myself into the belly of was this;

You see, I'd been put out of business by not only the extreme credit tightening, but further with the Dodd-Frank Act and once I learned the real truth about "money" - there was no way for me to go on....anyway.

Since then, I've used my knowledge to help others fight the banksters - stay in their homes and out of court with collections and foreclosures - just on a volunteer basis and only based on personal experience. Its kept me busy, and I feel a sense of recompense for so unwittingly and unknowingly enslaving so many further than they already were.

It doesn't pay the bills, though. I'm hoping to use the massive amount of blogging experience acquired through other social media sites here at SteemIt, to provide relevant information and encouraging content about a range of subjects and perhaps even branching into more interactive formats - depending how this goes!
Here I am, in full transparency - on Facebook. You can also find me at LinkedIn...

For you see, there IS a very comprehensive and well-developed benevolent plan for Humanity!
It has been in the works for over 6 decades, mostly headed up by retired high-level military commanders and now including many angry disillusioned veterans.
I've been let in on this "plan" and have been anxiously watching it unfold, especially as I 'follow-the-money' in the global financial arena.
I happily share many messages from certain individuals whom I've come to know and trust, over the years - that will offer you a birds-eye view past the veil of the deceptive 'Fake News'.
We are all on the verge of the BIGGEST Event in History, and its a "Reality Show" like none other!

On a more personal note, I've also researched and practiced Health and Healing as though my life depended on it for over 4 decades now - and accepted personal responsibility for not only my own health, but that of my children's, their father, our pets - and others as needed....never once needing to turn to a "doctor" or BigPharma in any way.
I used to think it was just a personal preference, and an "alternative" - until I learned the real truth about "medicine". Another twisted path that led me to the discovery of one of the most heinous crimes imaginable - and everyone really has the right to know.
I also like sharing on this topic - trying to improve and maybe even save lives. #BigPharma

I hope that we can be friends, and get to know each other - I welcome comments and always respond.
