Now Jimmy Buffett Wants to Win with Tiger Blood Too

TMZ reported today that Jimmy Buffet is looking to capitalize on the Tiger Blood craze by trademarking the term "Tiger Blood" for use in vodka and energy drinks.  Just last week we revealed that Charlie Sheen's Tiger Blood is already available, as it is actually just Xango mangosteen juice.  But Jimmy Buffet is no doubt seeing the winning possibilities in marketing a vodka and energy drinks labeled as "Tiger Blood," just look at what "Margaritaville" did for him.

What will be even more surprising will be if Sheen's people haven't already trademarked the term, as an official "Charlie Sheen's Tiger Blood" sounds like money in the bank.  Being Sheen is already going on a live show tour, serving Tiger Blood or even drinking it on stage during the show seems like a marketer's dream.  So the real question is, would you drink something with a "Tiger Blood" label just slapped on it as a slick marketing move, or would you stick with the original drink that Charlie Sheen himself claims is his secret to "Winning."

Charlie Sheen is Bringing WINNING On Tour Live

That's right, Charlie Sheen has already taken over the Internet, and now you will be able to see Winning in person as Charlie Sheen will be appearing at Fox Theatre in Detroit and The Chicago Theatre in Chicago.  Sheen's live show will be titled "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not An Option Show"...yes seriously.

We have no idea what this will be, but we can guess it will be Sheen speaking live, which is always a show in itself.  The only thing for sure is that the shows will no doubt somehow include warlocks, tiger blood, and loads of Winning.  On a positive note, one dollar from each ticket sold will be donated to disaster relief in Japan.  If these shows are successful (which in terms of tickets sold they already are) we can be sure that the tour will continue and Winning will come to cities across the U.S. 

Tickets to these two shows sold out in minutes, but you can still buy tickets at the following link: Charlie Sheen Live Tour Tickets

And if you want a little sneak preview, check out Charlie Sheen himself with a little message about his live shows:

Charlie Sheen's "Tiger Blood" Revealed as Mangosteen Juice "Xango"?

Well now the secret of our favorite Unemployed Winner's success may be available to everyone!  According to TMZ, the drink that Charlie Sheen called "Tiger Blood" in the infamous pics of him at the top of a building is actually known as "Xango."  Xango is actually a juice drink that promises all sorts of health benefits such a healthy respiratory and immune system, and is a made up of mangosteen and 8 other juices.  Sheen apparently drinks it every day, and obviously thinks it's great judging by the pics.

Of course since we have been Unemployed Winners for about 6 or 7 years now, we checked out Xango juice long ago.  We liked it back then, and it does have some great benefits, but who knew it would come to be the the official Tiger Blood of Charlie Sheen!  We knew "Tiger Blood" would somehow somewhere become a mainstream drink that would make big money, we just didn't know the drink already existed!

What's interesting is that the Xango company is said to be nervous about being associated with Charlie Sheen, but we have a feeling they  may change their tune when order after order starts pouring in for their "Tiger Blood."  You can order your own Xango, Tiger Blood, mangosteen juice, whatever you want to call it, right now below:

#Winning Has to be the Most Used Hashtag...EVER!

Well we have already pointed out that Charlie Sheen is an official Twitter Superstar, but now many of his famous sayings have taken on lives of their own.  "Tiger Blood" has become a running joke for many ever since Sheen revealed that as one of his secrets to success, but EVERYONE is including the hashtag #Winning in their tweets.  I realized this thing had gone to the next level when I saw TONS of celebrities adding this hashtag to their tweets, no matter what the tweet was about.  It's like everyone from the normal folk, to Unemployed Winners like ourselves, all the way to A-list celebrities are adding #Winning to their posts to try and get a piece of the Sheen Twitter madness. 

Of course there are now a few detractors popping up and pointing out that anyone using Sheen's terms are simply celebrating drug use, but Sheen is non stop as he continues teaching the world how to win.  So whether Charlie Sheen is a good role model or not, he has the world in a #Winning mind set.  Everyone seems to be inspired and are looking at all positivity that comes their way as a win.  As for us, the #Winning movement is all about kicking the world's ass......and being unemployed while doing it!

Charlie Sheen Teaches Us We Can be Unemployed, but Still Win!


Charlie Sheen is without a doubt THE most talked about person anywhere right now.  He even sparked the return of the movement known as Unemployed Winners that we started over 4 years ago.  Well now the Sheen craze is becoming somewhat of a daily habit for over 1 million Sheen Twitter followers to keep up with.  That's right, only a few days after joining Twitter, Sheen has over 1 million followers.  Talk about being an Unemployed Winner, 1 million Twitter followers in a matter of days is money in the bank, and Mr. Sheen knows it.

But Charlie is sharing the love, in fact even though he knows he can sit back and bank just by tweeting some endorsements, it was recently reported on TMZ that Sheen gave Broguiere's Dairy a huge plug by simply tweeting a pic of himself holding their chocolate milk.  The place got a huge boost in attention because Unemployed Winner Charlie Sheen decided to be nice.  In reality celebrity tweets can cost up to $10,000 a pop, so Charlie doesn't need a TV show, or any damn job...he can be unemployed but still WIN, simply by tweeting.

This is just one example of being an Unemployed Winner.  There are various ways and we will be discussing a ton of them here in the future, but right now Charlie Sheen is giving lessons simply by existing.  We will be following the ride as Charlie Sheen helps us make being an Unemployed Winner the most winning idea ever....an idea we had years ago, but we gladly welcome Charlie to the club!

Because We Were Unemployed Long Before Charlie Sheen

We are Unemployed Winners. We let our site fall by the wayside around 5 years ago. I guess we were doing too much winning to write about it. We originally started our site as a spoof of that "Unemployed Loser" guy and as a social commentary on the whole blog begging thing that was happening at the time, as well as get rich get schemes and posturing by people like the "Rich Jerk."

Basically, we lost interest. Today, I saw Charlie Sheen's twitter with the bio " Unemployed Winner."

What can I say? Welcome to the club, Charlie!

We were writing about being unemployed winners 5 years ago, and we're still unemployed and still winning. So, I figured: What the Heck? Let's start up again.

I have a lot of ideas for this site. To me there is deep meaning to the concept of being an "unemployed winner." However, like most things, I will probably lose interest before I fully articulate what I mean. In the meantime, let's enjoy the ride.
