Instead of pointing fingers or taking credit for being right/careful, lets look forward to see what we can do collectively.  This forum will not accomplish anything by highlighting missteps made by individuals - I'm not saying we should turn a blind eye, but lets stay focussed on the goal of funding.

From what we have seen, I'm pretty sure we can all come up with a few things that are important for any service that is going to supply this type of funding.  And no matter how exciting a program looks or how much sense it seems to make, we need to make sure that those criterion are met before we jump on the bandwagon.

Still, nothing ventured nothing gained - while its important to try things, we should also be learning from all of these scams and failed programs.

That's OLD NEWS Ardinvestor.

Some of us have ALREADY learned, that's why we didn't give April or any other reseller ONE RED PENNEY. I will continue to POST WARNINGS about SCAMS and I know some will listen & some won't. But the one's that listen will not be out any $$$ AND will be able to invest in something WHEN the time is right.

How about we RE-POST the WARNING signs that some of us have posted on this forum repeatedly? Maybe if people see enough of the WARNING signs they will know to WALK AWAY.....and DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE.

I 100% agree that we should focus on the target which I think should be common for all. Now in terms of April, I personally would not want to put her down. The only thing I am trying to get across her, is that she should control her emotions on both sides of the fence. The other issue is that she can take responsibility for mentioning SF which seem not to be working out as of now.

In moving forward, two areas to ensure.


1. Proven track record from trusted source.

2. Secured payment option - Especially Credit card

3. Technical Competence  - Experience with Lonex is that the Reps never seem to know exactly whats happening or how it works.

Now, you could take a risk with others but make sure you understand that upfront.

I understand your position dude but you have never spoken to her so that is an off the wall guess on your part. She is pretty damn smart but has yet to get off the ground. We could say the same thing about you, correct? Offer us an idea instead of posting shit like that.  Again we are hoping this forum is to help us move forward. April has done me no harm. I am not sponsering her at this point but see no need to trash talk people, it is a waste of your time. If she screws me over someday I will let you know.

 Why are you guys are so worried about her emotions?

In my eyes that's a good sign that let's me know she cares, were is Eric Buam, and other scammers?

SHE'S NOT HIDDING!

 

In the begining the mention she was an INTERN not a RESELLER!

LMFAO @ steelers 1 for thinking that my etiquette in this forum has any true bearing on my business rapport in the real world. I can hide behind a forum posting and be myself just like all of you and yes, as I stated before, I'm very emotional. I incorporate emotion because if I don't feel, I don't care. I AM AS STRONG AS THE EMOTIONS YOU CRITICIZE ME FOR. Thank you for taking me under your wings as a young entrepreneur  and telling me your opinions on what you think I'm doing wrong. I appreciate the love that I feel in this room from A LOT of you. Steelers 1 you don't know me from Adam. And I for one am glad you don't. Simply because if I were to be cursed enough to end up with you as a client, I would purposely let you hang yourself in your self righteousness. I was wrong about you. You are not a dipstick. You are a lonely and sad individual that has never been lucky enough to catch a break long enough to stop complaining. And the only thing thats been stopping you from reaching your goal, is you. You truly are the epitome of the old saying "you are your own worst enemy" Every word that you speak can come into existence. And since the only thing I have seen you do first hand is talk pure D grade A Sh*t. So I can imagine how your life is going right now. As for me, I will continue to be me. Work my own program and not ever be lazy again. When I have proof, I will share it. My poster clients laugh at these postings because for those of you that truly know me, All of this is simply childish and I have always behaved above this HS bullsh*t.  And for those of you that don't know me, this is the bottom line. IF YOU THINK I'M RAW AND AT MY WORST, PLEASE THINK AGAIN. BUT THIS IS ALWAYS GOING TO RING TRUE. IF YOU CANT HANDLE ME AT MY WORST. YOU DAMN SURE WILL NEVER DESERVE MY BEST. GO PACKERS!!!

Matter of fact, if you aren't a client or I don't owe you money, PLEASE keep my damn Name out of your mouth. I owe you no explanations personally or business wise. If you cannot start at ground zero, never ever expect to climb to the highest plateau. THIS TIME, I'm out.
