One day, just as he was about to make his television debut as a reality TV personality, a story was published on the front page of the Atlanta Journal Constitution saying that this guy was a fraud! A reporter had checked into his claims and discovered quite a few holes in his story. Seems he was touting himself as a "doctor" on his website and written materials but when the reporter checked she could only confirm that he had received his Master’s Degree not a PhD. The story turned into a PR nightmare. The guy tried to do some damage control by making an appearance on the highly popular Frank and Wanda radio show to discuss the story. With no answers, only vague references about where he earned his PhD like "from an online" university, the city was a buzz about how his lie had been caught.
So if you are thinking, what else is this guy capable of well keep reading? His back-story is sorted with drama. Born in
Shortly after the PR nightmare in
With his professional life in question you have to know his personal life was also being questioned. According to several former friends he is not a "Doctor" but is working on it. In his personal life there are just as many holes in the story. At one point he dated a successful and beautiful TV anchor woman but this dude has true commitment phobias, so he ended it because he stated "he could not marry a woman who made more money" than he did. He was married once before to a woman who worked for Delta Airlines but my sources tell me that the shame of a marriage ended because it was revealed that he only married her to get the free tickets/buddy passes that spouses are given.
Liar,
Liar
Think
Tank:
- Fake
it until you make it is one sure way to end up not making it. When you
present yourself to people be truthful. Again this industry is very small.
Once it has been discovered that you have lied about what you have done it
will automatically make you suspect in peoples minds.
- Material
things don’t make you who you are. If they do you should seek some help
for that condition. Sure people like to do business with people they
perceive as successful but think of how much they won’t be willing to do
business with you if they discover you only have a good presentation with
no substance.
- Check
and double check who you are dealing with. It has been said time and time
again that people will give you their best representation when they first
meet you. Don’t be in a hurry to get involved with people, sometimes what
you don’t know can and will hurt you.
- Don’t
think you can invent lies and people won’t find out the truth. The truth
always comes out. It’s better to be up front in the beginning. You can
earn more respect when people can trust your words.
- If you
must pretend that you are something that you are on your way to being then
say that. Don’t say I’m a producer and you have never produced one thing.
Don’t allow people to label you as something you are not. Correct them as
often as you have too, no one wants their dirty laundry aired on the front
page of the daily newspaper or blog.
