FIB - Scams 101 - Ye Olde Archives
Posted By: Jim Wilson In Response To: Re: Incredible.... (Tina)
Saturday, 7 January 2006, at 9:25 p.m.
Myself and others HAVE offered you advice. You, for whatever reason, did not seem to appreciate it when that advice pretty much told you that some of your current ideas have been tried before and failed.
Do I wish you to be a failure?
Nope.
Do I think ill of you?
Nope.
Do I think that your ideas and post are off-base?
Yes. My opinion. I am entitled to it just as much as you are entitled to disagree with it. Business is business and personal is personal. It is wonderful to dream of incredible success but simply stated not too many people make even one dime in profits from their online endeavors much less $100k per year. To think that you can come online, jump in with both feet, and make that 6 figure profit in your first year with little work to boot shows a great lack of actual experience.
The people offering you the advice know what they are talking about Tina. And therein lay the biggest question of them all: Do you?
My final advice to you is pretty simple.
Set REALISTIC goals for yourself and your business. Learn as much as you can and proceed with an open mind. Don't believe everything you read in online business offers and those that state you can make millions with little effort aren't telling you the truth.
If you go into your online business future with the above in mind you MIGHT have a chance to make money online. $100k or more? Doubtful and I am not being mean. I am being honest with you. Sometimes the truth hurts but it does not change the fact that this is what it is; the truth.
Want proof?
Ask on this board or any other with lots of online business visitors:
"How many of you made $100,000 in your first year of business in profit?"
I would wager that you would be VERY lucky to even find one or two.
Stop taking things personally, Tina. Grow up and face the music. People ARE giving you some really solid advice. The value of that advice is solely based on just how seriously you take it.

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
