“How do we get the word out so that the tide of people being victimized stops rising?”

I don’t think you can…

Think about it… cons prey on peoples base instinct of greed. Yes there are many who prey on the elderly and such but that is not anything we can prevent because the elderly and others are usually running through their own lives in a diminished capacity intellectually.

All you can do is to be prudent OR to acknowledge the risk and invest the appropriate amount of money knowing that the money can in all likelihood fly away.

Cons will ALWAYS be around…white collar, blue collar, whatever. They will take all sorts of shapes and forms. You are waging a battle against yours and that is great. There is no argument that you guys were swindled. Yet the argument I think that FLU and others were making to Core Client, (and I had even chimed in) was that even without the criminal element, the base instinct that drove the purchases was one of being able to take advantage of a speculative housing market.

Also there are plenty of people who are not ever the victims of some kind of crook. Lots of them. They just never give into the greed instinct. However no risk and no reward correct? Anyways in your personal case you did admit it was greed and yes it does suck that you guys were shiestered.

OCrenter sure knows his stuff. 🙂

Pinoy is a term of endearment and is rarely used in formal settings. The term is akin to that of a nickname which is used by close family members and friends so that one who uses it somehow already developed some close ties with Filipinos.

We weren't trying to draw parallels.

 

um…… And I quote coreclient:

I guess your bully tactics, disrespectfulness and ignorance has finally caught up with you. I guess it serves you right, how’s that feel….Oh maybe you deserved to go to jail just like all these so call coreclient victims.

How’s it feel to get kicked in the nuts when you are down?

 

Look,

It's sad you folks fell for a con. It sucks, just like it sucks for everyone else who fell for something at one point or the other.

 

BUT, short of winning a lottery, there are no quick buck schemes. If it takes a tradeshow or mass showing tell you about making a quick buck that's so easy, it's a scam. Because if it's really that easy, everyone would have already done it, making that not-so-easy. We live in age with near-perfect-instantaneous information. Making money "easily" days is over.

 

It boggles my mind how many people pay good money to attend things from the "learning annex" that features motivational speakers, financial speak, etc from people like Guy Kawasaki and Trump. Do people really think those infomercials are really going to help anyone besides wealth transfers from the crowd to the guest speakers????

 But, I'm going to start giving a motivational seminar: "How to Think on Your own". In the seminar we will teach and train you on how you can think on your own. Exercises will be based of motivational speakers forcing you to think the way we think to think on your own.
