Mr. Potato Peeler Guy


I just saw on the 60-minute news about a guy who was very good in selling potato peelers. He just passed away last Friday at age 75. He was a well known peddler in the streets of New York City. He left an inspiring story. He had sold hundreds and thousands of potato peelers everywhere in New York City. They said he was a peddler by day and went dining in fine restaurants in the upper east side by night. He spoiled his wife with their way of living. He was never ashamed of what he did and he could not imagine what he would do without his job. His name is Joe Ades. They said no one can sell a simple item the way he did. May you rest in peace Mr. Joe.
