Jimmie Fuller told Neville he first heard of him four years earlier through Dr. Bailes on the radio, and that he and his wife spent their last fifty-four dollars attending every one of Neville's meetings, once with no money left for the babysitter. The article states that Fuller spent his last fifty-four dollars to hear Neville after Bailes' recommendation.

The article says Fuller later made more than a quarter of a million dollars. Neville tells this himself in 'Sound Investments': after urging Fuller not to let racial prejudice restrict him, he reports that in the year before the telling Fuller turned a net profit of about a quarter of a million dollars, corroborating the Bailes-article account of Fuller's later fortune.

Having told the Jimmie Fuller story two weeks earlier and been told repeatedly by listeners that Fuller must have had capital, Neville asked him on Friday night for the details and learned he began with fifty-four dollars, spent it all on Neville's meetings, and in the last year made a quarter of a million dollars.
