The Unlucky Sperm Club Nelson Tressler pt 1In October of 1971, two police officers were shot by John Tressler in a small town of Bellefonte, PA. One died, Officer Ronald Seymore. During the first trial, John Tressler’s daughter testified the reason behind the shooting was because, allegedly, officer Seymore had raped her on a traffic stop and she had become pregnant. That baby boy, has now grown up and written a book titled, https://amzn.to/3qGdlP3 (“The Unlucky Sperm Club: You Are Not A Victim of Your Circumstances.” )
Nelson Tressler is my guest on the program today. Nelson grew up with that stigma attached to his name, in a small town environment where everybody, literally, knows your name. He joined the Air Force and after serving completed his college degree at the University of Nevada and spent 20 years in commercial real estate as one of the top producing agents in the nation. He has personally brokered will over $1 Billion in commercial real estate deals for his clients.
Nelson founded a company called https://igotsmarter.com/ (“IGOTSMARTER”,) built on 25 years of life lessons he picked up from his “murder to millions” story.” He helps his clients to implement philosophies, goal setting and personal development techniques that he has used over the years to build his personal success.
“Who is Nelson Tressler?”
How was it for you growing up? Well, first, before we get to that question, why don’t you give us the background on what happened.
Your mother was one of, I believe 16 children. So things were pretty tight as it was. I grew up in that time. Inflation was high, unemployment was going up. The racial tensions were high, we had just come of the 1967-1969 turmoil. Vietnam was still going, etc. So life could not have been easy for a large family like that, correct?
When I read the book excerpt, I was immediately drawn in. Give us the background on what happened with your grandfather on that fateful day in October 1971.
Your mothers allegations did not come out until the defense portion of the trail? The prosecutors had no idea this testimony was going to be offered?
Back in the 1970’s there was no DNA evidence or anything like that. So it was basically your mother's word, Diane, against the reputation of a police officer whom her father had murdered. That did not sound like a good situation anyway you looked at it. What was life like in your town after that, while you were growing up?
How did your family, the other brothers and sisters, your aunts and uncles, handle the situation? And how did they relate on a daily basis with you?
When and why did you decide to join the Air Force?
You served on a few deployments, correct?
When you finished your tour of service, I’m guessing going back to your home town was not something that you wanted to do?
You graduate and start your first company. What was that company about? What did you do?
How did you become involved in commercial real estate?
Tell us about your company https://igotsmarter.com/ (IGOTSMARTER.) It is about creating and achieving goals and uses an app based system? Tell us about this and how it works?
It is based on 15 philosophies you’ve lived by and achieved your success. We don’t have time to go into all 15, but give us your top three…
Folks, I just cannot express in words the needfulness of you to buy this book. Nelson has shared things in this book that we have not even had time to cover. And those we did cover today, really, we just barely scratched the surface. His willingness to take the tragic story of how he came to be and the environment in which he grew up, an environment of not his making, is worth reading about in this book. But then, he shares how he turned his life around! Praise God! He shares how he turned what look like a cursed life into a blessed life. It did not happen overnight. But it did happen. And now, through this book and through his company https://igotsmarter.com/ (IGOTSMARTER,) you can read...
