All that I have recieved this week is email from people with bad news. Do you know that it's Christmas?
These people are like the angels of death, their greed is hidden behind a mask, they are pretending to 'help' people that are suffering already by asking them to give them money that they mostly cannot afford.

What sort of people are these? Yes the world is in a bad state and the reason is becaue of people like them, scum. if they have done so well for themselves then why not truly help others and not take the little that they have left....still I guess that we have all read the story of Scrooge, that came about Christmas time as well....

Just recieved.....

You are assuming people are suffering, never assume. Secondly, these guys that are promoting what you are reading are REALLY trying to help. Though, if you take on the negative mindset of thinking they are just out to get your money, then we can't help you. We can't change your mindset, only you can. You have two choices here. You can close the email and delete and miss out on something that could very well change your life or you can be open to what the amazing leaders of this industry are offering and have been doing for quite sometime. Helping others realize there is a better way. Either embrace it or walk away, it's your choice.

Quite frankly I am offended by your use of words, scum. I whole heartedly support them 110% and know I wouldn't have built a 6 figure income in 6 months had I of not followed what they have said.
Best of luck to you.

The thing I'd rather talk about here Jim is the fact that you know where you are.
You've stated that you know you're head isn't in a good place right now.
That's what I'd like to talk about...

I know what it's like to get caught up in it.
I know what it's like to venture into those dark places in our minds and get trapped there.
Frankly times are all very overwhelming and I'm not surprised more people aren't {{{FREAKING OUT!}}}

We can argue, we can point fingers, we can fight... But I for one don't accept that.
You're a fellow human being in need and I just can't ignore that.

How can we help you Jim?
What needs to transpire in your life to help you get out of that funk and get in a good place mentally so you can move forward and take care of business?

Don't mean to be sad, but just a few weeks ago a very popular weather/new anchor man in my City took his own life.

This totally shocked many people in my City, why, because this young man was seemingly always jovial. Matter of fact, I refused to watch that news channel for weather reports, because he acted so silly at times, now I wonder if that may have been his way of covering up his pain?

This guy was married to a beauiful woman and had a very young daughter, his co-workers loved him, yet he suffered from depression.

I thank my God that at an early age I was introduced to the love of God through Jesus Christ. And yes, I too ahve had my share of down days, but I have "chosen" to dwell on the good in my life.

Things like my freedoms here in America, though I am frustrted with our Goverment.

I thank God for the many opportunities available to me.

I know 2012 is supposedly a year of uncertainties, because of the end of days gloom and doom, sayings going around,

God willing, I will be 54 on New Years Day, 2012. I am looking forward to a blessed 2012

I am truly grateful for my family and the health we have been blessed with.

First I should like to apologize for using the word ‘scum’ it was a very bad choice of word and I was just tempted to delete it. I suppose that part of the reason that I used it was to make people angry and to get attention…anyway it was bad taste on my part and I am sorry.

I do have the greatest respect for both Mike and Jason…..I hope and trust that we are all on the same team.

The overall emotions put forward on this post have shown the different personalities of the members on here and it is great to see such a mixed and outspoken re-action…. with I suppose more to come?

Am I angry about all this? ……maybe:
Three years ago a very close family member of mine lost everything to a financial adviser (a family member as well) their beautiful home in the countryside, their income, the lot (not in America I might add. They trusted this person’s advice and for a couple of years everything was great….then…you can finish this story yourself if you want to…..

The people on this site are good people, we can share....

I just saw this on Wkipedia:

The road to hell is paved with good intentions

Meaning
The meaning of the phrase is that individuals may do bad things even though they intend the results to be good. An example is the economic policies of the 1920s and 1930s. These were intended to be a prudent response to the economic turmoil following World War I and the Wall Street Crash respectively, but they were one of the causes of the Great Depression.

Moving on....
I live in Reno Nevada and I have just typed in Google Financial Advisors Reno Nevada and there is whole stack of them free (at least for the advice) So what we are seeing now I think is a completely new concept, and full marks for its creation. How many local financial Advisors will be subscribing to this new concept? Quite a lot I should imagine. Do they invest in the things that they recommend?

A Short Story
There was a street market in India that trading only in Gold. Every stall in the marketplace was protected by at least two police officers. One day a man tried to rob one of the stalls and he was quickly overpowered by the police. When he appeared before the magistrate the magistrate asked him “Did you not see the police”? to which he replied “I did not see the police, I saw only the gold”.

In closing, check this out, It is most definitely not a comment regarding this topic but still it is quite a good short read:
http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/arti ... 1452744195

caveat emptor …………….let the buyer beware

In closing: these comments are not and cannot be aimed at anyone on this site because there is nobody on this site that has (as far as I know) suggested that you invest with them, all that is being promoted is a monthly subscription to a Blog or Website, there’s nothing wrong with that.

That’s all, I am now finished with this topic, once again: I apologize to anyone that I may have offended, good luck and good hunting, regards Jim T.

Don't get discouraged, Jim.
I met a lady today who has over 8,000 emails, pending. Now I know why she has not responded to any of my emails. She says she is now in the market to get healthy and starting to exercise to get back in shape.

Hi you all!

The reason there is so much turmoil in the world right now is very simple.

The old paradigm which is the way we use to see and do things is no longer working...and when that happens revolution and chaos spark all over the world.

I wrote a humble article about the new Paradigm and how can we must change our way of thinking just to cope and adapt to the new Paradigm...if you believe this article could be beneficial please go here:

You all be well please,

Roger Aburto



P.S. As you will see I am starting a movement...and a date that come up to the top of my mind is February the 7th 2012 to re-launch my site that is in process of building http://www.worldsuperhumanproject.com

Most emails that we subscribe to have an unsubscribe link.

Richard is right.

And "unsubscribing" isn't the answer unless you just don't want the traffic. If something is upsetting you then you need to figure that out. Nobody can make us feel something we don't want to feel. We choose that for ourselves.
