A Depression-Proof Career

Become A Private Eye

By Paul Kangas

What is the best job in the world? I think mine is.

With a little training as a Private Eye, you can open up a world of unlimited possibilities. Especially for women. There is a shortage of women PI's.

People always ask me about my favorite case. I have seven.

In one I had to track down Oral Roberts for Tony Serra. Fun, fun, fun. I flew to Oklahoma, got my long hair and beard shaved off and posed as a Christian for a week.

I wandered around Oral Roberts University until I found his mansion. The whole place is like a fancy prison. Roberts never walks anywhere. He always travels in a bullet proof Mercedes. He acts like he owes a bunch of rough people money. Paranoid. I finally found Oral Roberts, right in the middle of filming a TV broadcast on the Bible. I walked right up to him, right in front of the cameras, lights and action.

I hugged him, in front of a 1,000 of his students and his wife, then served him, and then ran for my life.  His fat security force chased me for blocks. They almost caught me in the parking lot, but I had left my car unlocked and the key handy. I peeled out in a hail of gravel and headed to the airport.  The thin man won the race. I must admit I was sweating bullets until I got on that plane and left Oklahoma City. And I got paid to do it.

In another case, I was hired by Melvin Belli to serve papers on Ferdinand Marcos, when he fled the Philippines with millions of dollars in gold, and 3,000 pairs of shoes.

That was great fun playing cat and mouse with somebody who never thought I could penetrate his security. Overconfidence is not a good idea when you are being followed by someone that you have no idea who they are, or what they look like. He never saw me coming. Checkmate! I won that one too.

One San Francisco businessman fled SF with the whole bank account of his partners' company. He made one mistake. I figured out how he purchased a plane in Alaska, in a fake name. They all make one mistake.

I tracked his plane from Alaska to Bermuda to Maui.  He never realized I was always one airport ahead of him.  When he got to his secret hideout, on a sun drenched beach in Maui, I was there waiting for him.

I was actually laying in his big expensive hammoc, sunning myself, when he stepped out his back door and wanted to know, "Who the *#@*and^% are you?"

I told him: "I am the greatest private dick in the world, and you have been served."

Two weeks later he came to court to tell the judge I had, "Never served him. Just left the papers on his steps."

Unfortunately for him, my daughter is great with a camera, and so we showed the judge the 8 x 10 color, glossy photo of me handing him the papers.

Wow! Did the judge hit him... with a big fine.

As a former guard for President Kennedy, I had plenty of files on Bush, and the CIA, and how they killed JFK, RFK and King.

Shhhhhh. Were still not supposed to know this.

So I have a short story on that too.

Serving papers on Jesse Jackson was exciting.

You can learn a lot from the amazing stories of: lust, intrigue, sex, money, sex, cover-ups, power, insanity, sex and murder, a private eyes see in one life time.

One Vietnamese student of mine, who could barely speak English, is an excellent example of how some people just really have the zip it takes to become successful. I taught her the 7 basic steps.

She went out and did them. Two months after she left my class he called me to tell me she was now working full time as a PI in Walnut Creek. Six years latter she had her license. Great story.

The trick is, once you understand the law and the techniques, you can use them to start a hundred different kinds of businesses in the legal field or journalism.

Another student wanted to just run a business finding hidden assets.

I taught him 3 tricks. His wife and he launched a business just looking for assets. He now makes twice as much money as I do because he was young and had a life partner.

Anyone can become a PI and work 30 hours a week, making good money until you are 99.

Don't get me wrong. It is hard work, but if you have the zip to get up, every morning, at 6 am and go out looking for people, you can be very happy with a great job. Mainly, it is fun work.

Here is a typical story of success: A woman, we will call "Linda" was working as a bank clerk and hated her job.

She took my course. I trained her how to be an investigator. Mainly what I did was give her the confidence to apply for a Federal investigative job.

She is now as happy as a fluffy cat investigating corporate criminals who bilk investors.

She just lacked confidence that she could launch a new career at 45. She did it. I am so proud of her.

See, I teach life skills you can use in any career. I took Tony Robbin's course myself, and so I teach a mini version of how you can succeed in any career.

How would you like to get paid to travel the world as an investigator? Just like James Bond.

You can do it by just practicing the 7 steps I teach in this course. Call me today. You will be happy you did.

Look at that Hans Reiser case that is going on in Oakland today.  That case is crying out "Fraud." Where did the $1.2 million dollars go? Where is the dame? My guess is the money is burning a hole in Nina's hot pants pockets right now.

She won't be hard to spot, once she starts spending the million in St. Petersburg.

The longer this trial lasts, the more likely it is Nina will make a mistake and reveal her presents.

I will be in the courthouse Wednesday quietly watching the jury like a Maltese Falcon. Look at the way that one juror in back holds her left hand! That is telling you exactly what she is thinking! She is telling me she thinks Hans did not do it.

Great laughing chucks of cheese, Hans is going to be found innocent. Then the, investigation into where the money went begins. Then the fire works begins.

That is what I do for entertainment. Join me.

I'll tell you about: how we can find where the assets are hidden, where the bodies are hidden and how to tell who is on the take. Corporate crime in the suites.

The stories, the lies. I love the stories.
