How Small Storeowner Mike M. Became the Rich Owner of a Chain of Supermarkets After He Worked the Forceful Buy-Sell Ritual
The economic recession was inflicting heavy losses on Mike M. as he tried to keep his small store solvent.
"Prices were rising, competition from the big chains was fierce and sales were dropping while my overhead climbed,” Mike said. „„I had to cut out free delivery, and although my regular customers under stood, it didn‟t do a thing toward bringing new customers. The energy shortage cut back on passing trade, and each
week I saw the thin line of profit coming closer and closer to zero.
„„I‟d sunk my life savings and a large bank loan into the store, and
SECRET KEY HI: RITUALS 163
my wife and I had hoped il would provide us with income in our old age.
Instead, it was becoming a nightmare of worries. When profits hit zero. I‟d have no way of meeting the notes from the bank, and we‟d be left destitute.”
Economizing, cutting back on all expenses and trying to boost sales became a way of life for Mike and his wife. They were no longer able to think about vacations, retirement or any kind of relaxation.
•‟February was the fatal month," Mike said. “Outgoings topped income by several hundred dollars. I had nothing to fall back on. The bank was sympathetic, but money was very tight, so my existing credit was fully extended with them.
“We survived for a few weeks after I sold our car, but the drain continued.
Jewelry went next, as we prayed that trade would pick up in the summer. July and August we broke even, with a little extra tourist trade.
“Then the pre-Christmas sales began, and we were in deep trouble."
With nothing left to sell, Mike sadly began to plan going into liquidation. His wife, although really too frail to handle the extra work, suggested they take in a boarder. Mike, unskilled for technical trades, hoped to get work as a shingler or
house-painter.
“I was all set to lay my cards on the table at the bank when this stranger with a beard came in and bought some groceries," Mike said. "He was thin as a lath, wore glasses and a turtle-neck sweater with a strange pendant on his chest. I've not seen him before or since.
“He stayed for a while to talk, and he seemed to know a great deal about my business. I finally asked him, prete nding it was a joke, if he was a tax inspector. He said he wasn't: he was a traveling psychic, doing card readings for people. I thought he was going to con me into telling my fortune, but I didn't need that — my future seemed black to me, and I didn‟t need anyone to tell me about it.”
But the stranger laid a booklet on Mike‟s counter, suggesting he might try the instructions given inside it.
"He said that if, and only if, it worked, 1 could send a dollar to the address in back,” Mike said. “He left then, and I saw him drive off in a little yellow car.”
Mike told his wife about the stranger that evening.
"Can‟t figure his angle," Mike said. "If he's looking for clients, or trying to get cash, he‟ll hardly make his fortune that way.”
The booklet contained instructions for working the Forceful Buy-Sell Ritual.
Mike was unimpressed. His wife was more positive — she had been raised in Pennsylvania (The Keystone State farmers retain a great deal of the pre-Christian Teutonic magic) and knew the powers of the supernatural. She pressed Mike to try the Ritual.
“Call it a last resort by the desperate, but I worked the Ritual,” Mike said.
“Expectations? Zilch! But at least it got my wife off my back!
“1 kidded her along as we cashed up next day. The take was just about
164 SECRET KEYIII:RITUALS
average. 'Where‟s all the hundreds of new customers?‟ I said to her.”
But Magic was working quietly in Mike‟s favor.
“Nothing seemed to have changed. The Ritual had merely delayed my going bankrupt by a couple more days,” Mike said. "But was 1 glad that delay took place.
Two days after the Ritual, a representative of a foodstore chain dropped by. He was in the market to buy small, unprofitable stores, enlarge and streamline them, and put t he original owner back in a s manager. Within a week 1 c ould look the bank
manager in the eye again!”
The market chain bailed Mike out. They put up working capital and enlarged and converted his store. He started with a regular salary larger than any profit he‟d ever made from the store, plus an interest in a profit-sharing scheme and a generous pension plan.
"It gave me new heart," Mike said. “I had the backing to try out all kinds of marketing and promotional schemes I‟d never been able to afford before.
"The cash tills were ringing day and night. My bank balance went from zero to an incredible figure. Soon we had a new car — a far better one than the original jalopy we'd had to sell. My wife and I were able to move out of our cramped
apartment and buy a house, and also a cottage in the mountains."
Mike‟s sales hit a peak, and he was rewarded by the company with more money and greater responsibilities. Soon he was overseeing all the stores in the State.
"I never stopped climbing,” Mike said. “Now I own a large chunk of this food empire. I fly around in my private plane, just keeping an eye on the different stores and taking a percentage of the profits.
“Instead of slaving 80 hours a week for a pittance. I'm free to relax and enjoy life. Money? Name it, and I can buy it.
“I sent that bearded guy $1,000 for the copy of the Forceful Buy-Sell Ritual.
It was worth every cent of that. Funny thing: he sent $999 back to me, with a note saying: „Thanks—but I've no need of your money. I use the Ritual myself.”

Promoted to the Top After Passing an Important Examination, Thanks to the Automatic Test-Success Ritual
Curtis F. was facing the biggest opportunity of his life. For years he had been one of life's losers. Promotions had passed him by, jobs had been terminated and the breaks had always favored the other guy.
“I sat down one day and looked at myself. I‟d worked for 27 different people in 18 years and I was all set to go on doing that for the rest of my days," Curtis said.
"Nothing to show for it. No money in the bank, only the basic necessities of life, and my dreams of seeing the world, of enjoying wealth and of knowing some of the better things were fading fast.
"I decided to make a big effort. I signed up to study law in my spare time. If I could get a foot in the door there, I knew I could make it."
Curtis threw himself into his studies. He found he had a natural aptitude for the logic and data of his chosen subject. As time passed he made good progress.
"But I knew the big hurdle was still ahead of me: the oral and written test which would give me my first law credentials. With those I could break into the field and compete with qualified people," Curtis said. “I knew 1 faced a stiff challenge. I reviewed the test papers from previous years, and my determination quivered. Would I be able to make it? All the studying, all that cash invested, all the denials of relaxation would go for naught if 1 failed.
"If I failed, it would be a full year before 1 could try again, and I'd decided I was as ready as I ever would be. If I blew it, I was going to abandon the whole scheme.”
So Curtis‟ entire future hinged around a single examination. Pass, and he stood a chance of getting ahead in the world. Fail, and he was condemned to his existing life of quiet desperation and penury.
“Then a strange incident happened,” Curtis said. “The test was one week away, and I was cramming like a good 'un in every spare minute I could find.
“1 was working the graveyard shift at a 24-hour filling station. Around 4 a.m.
in the dark dawn hours, with cars few and far between, this girl walked out of the darkness of the highway into the lights of the station. She was tiny, five foot
166 SECRET KEYIII:RITUALS
nothing, short red hair, and dcepsct yellow eyes. She came into the office and sat down, asking if I would give her some hot soup. She said she had no money."
Intrigued, Curtis slipped money into the hot drinks machine and bought the girl a soup. She sipped it, gazing over the rim of the paper cup. Curtis felt her tawny eyes looking deep into his.
"You'll not be working here long,” she said in a calm voice. “You're heading for fame and fortune. But you‟ve got an important event taking place soon. Read this: take it for the soup. It‟ll help you."
She laid a tattered piece of parchment on the counter and stood up to go.
"Thanks,” she said simply. “Oh, yes— the next car coming here will be the sheriff. Tell him to wait out of sight. Five minutes after lie arrives, two guys in a blue Chevy will try to hol d you up and clean out the cash drawer. If the sheriffs
here, you'll be O.K. If lie's already gone . . . brother, you're dead."
She went quietly out into the sharp light of the forecourt. The door swung closed behind her, and she walked away into the darkness.
“Sure enough, the sheriff's car swung in two minutes later,” Curtis said. “He laughed at my shock and listened to my story with a cynical grin. But he agreed to park his car behind the office and stay in Die shadows for a while, just in case the
girl wasn‟t putting me on.
“She wasn‟t. Two guys arrived in a blue Chevy right on schedule. One of them jumped me at the pumps and held me at knife-point while the other headed for the office.”
The sheriff moved in and foiled the hold-up. After a brief straggle and a radio call, two chastened thugs were hauled off to jail.
“I don't know how she knew,” Curtis said. “Those two guys had driven all night from hundreds of miles away. They denied knowing any yellow-eyed girl.
But her spooky knowledge gave me confidence in the parchment she'd given me. It told how to perform the Automatic Test-Success Ritual."
Curtis scheduled the Ritual for each evening up to the time his examination was due.
“It gave me something I'd been lacking,” he said. "An inner peace grew in me. The tense fear of failure receded. Facts and figures seemed to come to the front of my mind more easily."
Curtis took the examination and tensely waited for the results.
"When they arrived, 1 found I had sailed through with close to a perfect score." he said. “My diploma and credentials were a reality.”
A totally new and stimulating existence began for Curtis. He secured an excellent first position on the strength of his magnificent examination results.
Promotion and progress followed swiftly.
"On the way up I faced other tests,” Curtis said. "Naturally, I used the Automatic Test-Success Ritual. It never failed me.”

Today Curtis is the head of a well-known consortium of Philadelphia lawyers. His colleagues admire him for his rapid climb, and rich clients ask for his personal services.
"Even in my most optimistic fantasies, I never thought I'd hit this peak of luxury and satisfaction,” Curtis said. "I never saw that miracle girl again, but last Christmas a card arrived at my office. Inside was a single lock of red hair, attached to a card. On the card was written: „You made it. I knew you would. I‟m glad.'
"Often, when I'm on a vacation cruise, or at some glittering function, I sometimes think I see those great yellow eyes looking at me across the room. But it's never her.”

How Small-Time Entertainer Graham D. Gained the Top of the Bill and
$1,000,000 After Performing the Thrilling l-Can-Wow-Them Ritual
His guitar was the only thing Graham D. could call his own. He had a burning desire to find recognition in show business, but he waited in vain for the big time to discover him.
“When that song about giving the best years of your life to rock and roll came out, I figured it had been written forme,” he said. “Time alter time I thought I'd made it, but fame was always a tinsel bauble just beyond my reach. The months and years rolled by, but I was stuck in the smalltime."
Dark little clubs, small dance halls, charity gigs, open-air concerts, all heard Graham's music. He played on trains, in buses, on sunny beaches, in green fields.
He played the crowds and he played in the loneliness of squalid rooms with only the roaches to listen to his music.
"Hungry? Most of the time. Sick? Often — and no one to care. Tired? Hoo, boy: I‟ve done gigs where I‟ve been asleep on my feet, but needed the few bucks they would pay,” he said. "And always the dream of the big promoter hearing me play and sing, offering me the recording contract which would mean fame and
fortune.”
Graham wandered far, seeking his dream.
“I met one of the top guys in showbiz one day," Graham related. "I wandered hopelessly into his dressing-room, hoping maybe some of his luck would rub off on me.
“He was laid back, relaxed. He could afford to be— he'd just signed a recording contract for $2,000,000. He was great: listenedtomy story . . . even asked me to play for him."
The star was kind, but Graham had to agree when the star said Graham was O.K. but there were hundreds of others with the same ability and talent.
Graham sadly packed up his guitar and prepared to leave.
“The star grinned when I asked him the secret of his success. A thousand newspapermen had asked him (he same question," Graham
170 SECRET KEY HI: RITUALS
said. "He‟d always answered, 'Bit of talent and lolsa luck.‟ Bui he gave me a different answer.
"Swearing me to secrecy, he gave me the lowdown on the Thrilling l-Can-Wow-Them Ritual. He made me promise not to reveal a word and said that even if I did tell the world that he'd got to the top by Magic, he‟d deny it and have me seats at the opening of the show. Then a famous local group would play, followed by the star of the show,” Graham said. “It loo ked like it would be no different from
a hundred similar gigs.”
Graham took his five-minute spot, giving it all he had, as usual. The crowd was enthusiastic, but in the short time Graham was on stage, he knew he could make little impression on them.
“They‟d have applauded a performing dog act,” Graham said. “They were excited and looking forward to enjoying the big name.”
As Graham stood in the wings after his spot, he noticed a flurry of activity
