Todd Smith & Blake Graham

More than Just Physical and Financial Health

Todd Smith & Blake Graham have experienced incredible changes with American Longevity. During Todd's first year in law school, he and his wife Darcie were expecting triplet girls to be born prematurely. If he wanted to be home to help with the children, Todd's employer told him to drop out of school. Instead Todd chose to look for a way to make money at home. His parents had already began taking Dr. Wallach's products with amazing results, and when Todd took a look at the business, he was told, "There are many things you can do to make money. There are only a few that really help people." He was also told that the opportunity was so good that "he would never use his law degree."

Blake was a pre-medical student when he was asked to translate for a network marketing company opening in Japan . Thinking he could earn money to pay for Harvard Medical School, Blake ended up taking a leave of absence and moved to Japan to build a business, and built a check of nearly $5,000 one month, only to see his organization deteriorate and people drop out. Within a year of returning to school, he was earning less than $200 a month. "I understood the potential of network marketing, but my experience was costly, not only in terms of money and time, but also in credibility with the people I know." Blake looked at many opportunities, but for a long time didn't find anything that he felt confident in sharing with other people. And then he ran into Todd, an old college roommate. "I had already heard the 'Dead Doctors Don't Lie' tape from another company. With my background I already knew that veterinarians know more about nutrition than M.D.'s, and with Dr. Wallach's sense of humor, I realized that this might be what I was looking for."

Together Todd and Blake teamed up and went to work. "I guess we were a good match – Todd had no real experience with network marketing, and I was still a 'starving student,' and even lost my old, cheap car because I didn't have $50 to fix the starter!" laughs Blake.

Now, nearly 6 years later, things are very different for Blake & Todd, American Longevity's first Triple Diamonds. Not only are Todd's triplet girls healthy, but he and his wife are expecting their 6 th daughter (yes, all girls!). Because of American Longevity, Todd was able to spend time at home when he needed to, and still complete his education, graduating with both a law degree and an MBA. By graduation Todd was able to pay off all his student loans, and also pay cash for a Honda Accord. As Todd's sponsor predicted, American Longevity has been so successful that Todd has never used either his law degree or his MBA – as a full-time distributor, Todd has the top income of his graduating class and the flexibility and freedom that others envy. This last year Todd and his family moved to Sydney , Australia to help open up A.Ls sister branch, Australian Longevity.

The changes in Blake's life are no less dramatic. "Growing up without a lot of money, family vacations usually involved driving somewhere to camp out. With American Longevity, I have been able to fulfill a life-long dream and take my family for their first ever vacation to Hawaii ." And last month, their American Longevity business has helped Blake and his bride Naibi pay for Naibi’s dream wedding in both the U.S. and Naibi’s native Okinawa , Japan . In their many travels, Blake & Naibi invite family and friends along when they can. " Sometimes the real challenge isn't the money, it’s getting the time off of work. It seems our friends in American Longevity are also the ones that are the most able to travel with us. Time together with the people you care about is priceless." What's the biggest benefit they see? "It is wonderful to see people smile, gain confident in themselves, and enjoy life again! Along with the physical and financial growth, the personal growth we see in people are the real treasures of our American Longevity business."
