1981, Born in November

Is this a hospital room? Oh, that's my mom?! Look at my hands! Wow, i really must have been reincarnated as a baby. i guess i was just born. At least i don't have to experience the birth process and the possible traumatic details associated with it. i think this confirms that i didn't have to be circumcised as a baby. It was one of those details i heard about but didn't completely believe. Bronchitis, huh, forgot that i had that issue when i was born. Crap, i forgot to request that i not develop allergies to perfume and a little bit of help with the initial lawyer/company setup.

"Wish granted.", the goddess responded.

Damn, she is monitoring my experience. It seems similar to manga, with gods watching our lives as entertainment.

"Not your original lives; those tend to be too boring for us. The re: life experiences are a bit more fun to watch."

That explains why they would spend so much power? Energy? on letting us release our regrets. Moving on, i should check if i can use the invisible cell phone perk now. Yep, pulls up. Thankfully, no one else can see the phone, and they assume that a baby reaching up is trying to grab the mobile. i also have the habit of working night shifts at the end of my prior life to help cover my tracks.

i will now attempt the initial contact with Dallas lawyers to push into creating a company. i'll have to make them act as my surrogate representative for any situations that require personal contact. i'll start with female lawyers first. It's harder for me to understand or trust men in general. Ms. Lee? Sounds Korean. If she's young enough, she could help when i want to do a passion project associated with K-pop-related stuff.

i'll start with an email asking if she would take a pro-bono business establishment, in-person representative status, and later create a flexible trust fund for the future heir of the company with a 10% cut of all profit.

She accepted? That was easier than expected. i wonder why she took such a potentially crappy deal. Oh, she sent a canned bio in her response. She is a 25-year-old Korean American in her first year as a lawyer. Great! Exactly. i think i will end up thanking my goddess even more in this life.

"Please create a business called AdminAll. The initial business models will be freelance business forecasts, scouting, and general business advice. i will stay anonymous until my retirement when the heir, Adam Samuel Keller, takes control of the business. This is why you will be the representative in any personal discussions. i do not trust his family to administer the account and future profits. When we are profitable, you will get your fees first.

Then, we will need you to have a tax company register and apply to pay taxes. If funds remain after that point, we will direct you to communicate with the employers of the heir's father, Russel Eric Keller, grandmother, Juniper Lowe, and step-grandfather, A. Hammond.

We will prioritize taking over their health insurance bills first for them and the family members that reside with them and then eventually move towards providing them with the average American salary, too. When we accomplish these minor goals, we will set aside another account drawing the same salary as a spending account for our heir. "Signed s.P.

Next, profit-making. i will send gross predictions for movies for December and offer cast and production recommendations to the major movie companies to get ingrained in their forecasting budgets and staffing. That way, we can profit and push into the markets and changes i want. Maybe i can push more diversity into the supporting roles, at least. i will offer sales predictions for movies in exchange for half a percent and include casting recommendations for the remainder. Hopefully, they get addicted to the accuracy of the forecasts before they notice me siphoning off their profits.

My form letters to the labels will state: We have done estimates for all new movies we expect to gross more than $1 million during the next month. Our forecasts predict that X amount of movies have the potential to reach an estimated amount of $Y over the next month. This month, we are providing our forecast for free so you can see the value of our services. If your movie production stalls, we can also offer recommendations for acting cast and staffing for the movie/s.

Music Recommendations

i will use the history of the best-selling albums for 1982 and send the expected overall units sold (rounded down). Then, i will offer our services to bait them for the 1983 forecasts and services. Keeping the information vague is also a way to avoid exposing my prior knowledge of the future.

My form letters to the labels will state: We have done estimates for all new albums that we expect to sell more than 1 million copies. Our forecasts predict that planned albums from X amount of artists on your label have the potential to reach an estimated amount of Y units sold over the next 40 years. Most of which is likely to occur over the next year. This year, we are providing our forecast for free so you can see the value of our services. If your album stalls, we can also offer recommendations for songwriter, producer, and mixer, as well as contract and album forecasts for any artist you intend to sign. However, we take a long view of album sales, and initial album sales are based on marketing and market climate. When conditions are met, the market will meet most of the demands. Considering the value of our advice is directly rated to the sales quota being made, we would require half a percent of the label's profit share, not to impact the content creators, starting when sales have met 50% of our estimated sales. If the label requests our album support services, we will require the other half a percent. We ask that you keep our services confidential. We are not a publicly traded company, so we do not invite public scrutiny of our leaders.

i will also recommend Mercury Labels buy John Mellencamp's contract from Riva. The long-term units sold are projected to be 5 Million for this album (he will end up on their label eventually). Riva's lack of faith and freedom for Mellencamp should make him cooperative.

Recommended TV Shows

The Dukes of Hazzard, M*A*S*H, The Jeffersons, Happy Days

Wow, the music label list took the whole month. i can't accomplish much more with so little time left in the year and my horrible coordination and sleeping patterns.

The list portions are really time consuming, but also the main source of income for the main character for the next few years. The main character hands off the "forecasting" tasks to employees.
