From the start, to tip meant to give somebody money, but four hundred years ago the money was given for a slightly different reason. It was part of the thieves' cant, a language used by the criminal underworld in Britain. You've probably used some of their secret code words today. The verb to "tout," which now means "praise something highly" started out meaning "to keep lookout and warn everybody if you saw the one time coming."

This is how my acquaintance Wesley Virgin's biography starts in this SHOCKING and controversial VIDEO.
You see, Wesley was in the military-and shortly after leaving-he revealed hidden, "MIND CONTROL" secrets that the CIA and others used to obtain everything they want.
These are the EXACT same secrets tons of famous people (especially those who "come out of nothing") and top business people used to become rich and famous.
You probably know that you use less than 10% of your brain.
Really, that's because the majority of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.
Maybe this conversation has even taken place IN YOUR very own mind... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's mind seven years back, while riding an unlicensed, beat-up trash bucket of a car without a driver's license and on his debit card.
"I'm so fed up with living paycheck to paycheck! When will I become successful?"
You've taken part in those thoughts, isn't it right?
Your very own success story is waiting to be written. All you have to do is in YOURSELF.
