How to Find Money You Didn’t Know You Had

Jordan is known as the “Man of Silver” because he helps people sell their sterling silver flatware, tea services, etc, for cash. While Robert Bura is a public adjuster, who helps homeowners get the protection - and the cash - they’re entitled to from their insurance companies for problems with their properties. Both of these guests give listeners helpful and profitable tips on how to make the most of assets they didn’t even realize that they had - including silverware and coins and their homeowners insurance. A great show for homeowners and those who may have inherited silver from past generations.

How to Succeed at Improving Your Writing During a Pandemic
Gary Belenke, Vanessa Ellis and Sheila Elliott are all long time members of the Oak Park Writers Group that meets twice a month at the Oak Park Library. When the library closed due to the pandemic, the group continued meeting on Zoom. They soon found that although they couldn’t meet each other in person, they could still support each other and critique each other’s work. This discussion reveals how the group works and the benefits it offers to anyone who loves to write - whether they’re a professional or just someone who loves to express themselves through the written word.

Val and Jeff Gee have been leaders in the corporate training industry for over 40 years. They’ve been married for 51 years and they laugh together every day. Even more remarkably, they’ve found a way to make others laugh as well. Jeff leads the couple and their staff in developing training programs for such clients as Motorola, NASA and the Veterans Hospitals around the country. Val does her part, writing training work books on everything from customer service and salesmanship to how to communicate with your spouse. Their books, published by McGraw Hill, have been used by companies and trainers around the world. In addition, they also perform standup comedy in clubs! Although their business has taken a hit during the pandemic, they’re exploring new venues like Facebook Live and webinars to keep the laughter going. We’re delighted they could join us and share some of their inspiring secrets.
