If it Sounds Too Good to Be True . .

Everywhere you look its the same message..... "This is so easy my 6 year old daughter can do this", "Just join, and relax", "We will do all the work for you", all you have to do is haul away the truckloads of cash and figure out where to spend it all.

Pardon my English but are we really that gullible? Sadly it seems that when greed overpowers reason and decisions are made based on emotions, the answer is a resounding yes! When it comes to business the correct tool to use is the head, not the gut feelings.

This is not a new discovery or a modern condition. We have all heard the term Caveat Emptor, Latin for "Let the buyer beware", a term that has been around for some thousands of years and for a very good reason.

If it sounds too good to be true you darn well know there is a catch somewhere so why would you even think of hopping on board when the pitch is so unbelievable?

To make something happen you must do something, no action equals no results. Yes you can throw money at it or buy the services of others to do it for you, if you have enough money, but usually the motivation is to make money, not spend it.

Think of it like a car for a moment instead of a business. The salesman saunters over and extols the virtues of the car... "Its hot off the line, shiny, new and has a powerful innovative new engine in it, it also comes with all the value added options loaded into it."

Then he gives you the rest of his pitch "Not only will you get this amazing new vehicle at last years prices" but "We will take care of everything for you, insurance, oil changes, brakes, tires, washes, gas, driving .... everything!" "All you have to do is buy the car in the next 10 minutes!"

Does this sound even remotely realistic? Of course not! Its not the way things work! So why would you buy this BS from someone pitching a business opportunity where all you need to do is join and they do everything else for you?

You are not a caveman ruled by emotions and fears. Don't let anyone play on them and or use you that way "Stop, Think and Pay Attention" to what is being offered and what the terms are.

If it does not seem realistic, leave it alone!
