Businesswoman Chapter 23

Lisa counted the ticks. Each tick corresponded to the number of former teammates standing on the basketball court.

Before each game at New Sweden University, the women’s basketball team lined up insync with a drum beat against the rim. Loreen looked on with her partner.

“You were a point guard. You scored seventeen points a game, eight assists, eight rebounds,” Loreen spouted.

“You saw my games?” Lisa asked, excited.

“I studied your tape. I don’t just hire anyone. You were superb. It’s a shame you got injured.” Lisa’s head lowered some.

“I was going to the league.”

“Now, you’re doing what most would love to do. We’re not crimefighters. We’re financial freedom fighters,” Loreen explained.

“I think I could coach.”

“You could, or you could make billions of dollars by doing what we do,” Loreen suggested.

“Billions are more than a few hundred thousand….” Lisa pondered.

“We’re going to make so much money because we have decided to let the dollars come to us. See, most people chase money. We commit ourselves to allowing cash to find us,” Loreen explained further.

“Who else is out there, doing this?”

Loreen shrugged. “Could be from ten to ten thousand…or more,” she winked.

Lisa chuckled a bit. “I enjoy this. This is something I never want to retire from in my whole life. Everything we do is what makes America excellent.”

“Exactly. It doesn’t matter your party, enterprise will always be in vogue,” Loreen answered. “Watch this….”

She turned to a fan in the stands. “Who’s your favorite singer?”

The woman proudly said, “Viva Lefleur.” She smiled and turned back to the game.

“Viva’s worth four billion dollars. Because of the commitment of her supporters, she’s been able to garner money in large amounts.”

“That’s the same with sports legends, too, no?”

“Exactly.”
