Help A Hockey Player
Hundreds of Professional Hockey players in our very own nation
are going to be locked out, living at well below the
seven-figure salary level. And as if that weren't bad enough
they could be deprived of their life-giving pay for several
months, possibly longer, as a result of the coming lockout
situation.
But you can help!
For only $20,835 a month, about $694.50 a day (that's less than
the cost of a large screen projection TV) you can help an NHL
player remain economically viable during his time of need. This
contribution by no means solves the problem as it barely covers
the annual minimum salary, but it's a start, and every little
bit will help!
Although $700 may not seem like a lot of money to you, to a
hockey player it could mean the difference between spending the
lockout golfing in Florida or on a Mediterranean cruise.
For you, seven hundred dollars is nothing more than a month's
rent, half a mortgage
payment, or a month of medical insurance, but to a hockey
player, $700 will partially replace his daily salary.
Your commitment of less than $700 a day will enable a player to
buy that home entertainment center, trade in the year-old Lexus
for a new Ferrari, or enjoy a weekend in Rio.
HOW WILL I KNOW THAT I'M HELPING?
Each month, you will receive a complete financial report on the
player you sponsor. Detailed information about his stocks,
bonds, 401(k), real estate, and other investment holdings will
be mailed to your home. Plus, upon signing up for this program,
you will receive an
unsigned photo of the player lounging during the lockout on a
beach somewhere in the Caribbean (for a signed photo, please
include an additional $150). Put the photo on your refrigerator
to remind you of other peoples' suffering.
HOW WILL HE KNOW I'M HELPING?
Your NHL player will be told that he has a SPECIAL FRIEND who
just wants to help in a time of need. Although the player won't
know your name, he will be able to make collect calls to your
home via a special operator in case additional funds are needed
for unforeseen expenses.
