You may not know him right now, but you will soon. Ted Wiliams just days ago was panhandling on the street. He has been homeless for over a decade. Well, he struck gold. Never give up. Mr. Williams was a former announcer and has a beautiful voice...sounds just like an announcer. Well, his voice never faded even after years of drinking and drugs. He appeared on the Today show, has been offered lucrative job offers and someone has even offer to buy a house for him! WOW!!!!! I have been tracking many rags to riches stories because I need all the motivation I can get. Well, Ted Williams is someone I'll be keeping an eye!!!!! The homeless man with a golden voice. Have you heard of him?

Yes, stories like this are an Inspiration and quite encouraging as well. I know that there are many times I wish something like this would happen for me, but if it did would I be able to personally handle it? I do remember hearing about him and can often wonder if my choice in job and $$ can help out everyone as well.

This story is all over and it was all over last nights news. He is unbeliable and has even come out about waht he did and how he got homeless, the man is very lucky to be found and is lucky to be offered everything he has. I like when i saw him at first and how bad he looked and someone bought him clothes and cut his hair and he looks like a totally different person now. Hes been on TV everyday for a couple days and has been offered great paying jobs and once again is a very lucky person to be found. He of course now has a lot of decisions to make and big decisions that will change his life forever. I hope he takes one of the many jobs he was offered and maybe the ones he doesnt offer he can recomment someone he might have known from being homeless and help others out as well. He can become someone in his life now.
