Was never my intention that Eddie or any blackbelt hand out what is not warranted. I hope for tpjj, that these guys that are striving for higher ranking so that they can promote their students just as Eddie does, that all these guys start burning up the tournament scene or saving their pennies to make the trip to LA. because otherwise, they best get used to the idea of staying where they are..... or am I off the mark with that statement too!Quote:

I didnt slate Eddie for anything, i raised a concern as to some peoples financial ability to make the what he is requiring. if one cant save up the money for whatever reason to make the trip to La, is it not perceivable that they cant enter every tournament that comes around at 50 to 100 dollars a pop? All I am saying is that when you put undue financial burdens on people with the hopes of prospering, then expect everyone not to live up to your expectations, and that would be an awful reason for someone to be held back. It was my opinion based off of some very real conversations with people. And has I have been in contact with Scott and he has assured me that he meant no disrespect, then I'm good with that, but like I told him, in watching a video about his bb award, Eddie stated that his hold up be able to pull lotus, and when he did it, he got his black. That is a lot different than saying that because you a poor or that your money is fucked up at the moment, sorry, your shit out of luck. With scott his challenge was a physical deficiency that Eddie knew he could overcome, thats a little different then asking someone to change their financial situation or too bad. And my point to you about doing all I can do was in that same line. due to things out of control in my personal life, I have had to set some things off till such time that I can afford them. That doesnt mean that i dont still want to and have the desire to do them, I just cant, and unless the tpjj gods are handing out grants so that I may continue my training, those things are going to have to get done when I can. But I'm not an affiliate that has been paying my dues to Eddie to represent him, so mine is a little less important if you know what I mean.Quote:

All the best to you and I wish you well in clearing your debt and travelling to HQ
Again promotions are not based on hear say and word of mouth... If you cant afford to get in front of your Instructor or PAY YOUR DUES then you don't get promoted! CRY ABOUT IT!
just so you know and everyone knows, that tpjj means alot to me, so much so that I offered to split the cost of a seminar with kevin to get him back out here to the east coast, not for me but for Kevin. Because I believe in his abilities that muchQuote:
