The Genesis
At a dark, corner table in the Waldorf Hotel two friends (yours truly is one of them) launched a year-long competition: enter as many free contests as possible and see who wins the most. The winner had to treat the loser to a free dinner at the Waldorf.
I was the one who ended up buying dinner.
Yes, after emerging victorious at the end of 2011, I decided to continue entering contests on my own. I have won thousands of dollars and numerous prizes.
