Review...
I am 60 years old. I am disabled and have been
unable to work for over 10 years. I have tried over a dozen "Home Based
Business" and "Business Opportunities" programs. I have 'invested' and lost over
to $40,000 trying to make a living with any of them. I put my best efforts into
each business I bought in to. The hard work and long hours always turned out to
be a waste of time and money. They all turned out to be scams or rip-offs. In
every case, I always did my "due diligence" and research into each opportunity.
I always called the Better Business Bureau in the area where the business
originated. No matter what questions I asked, the response was always the same,
"We don't have any complaints against that company", or "..any complaints are
being worked out". If I later called and reported a complaint of my own, it
never showed up on their records. ?! It was like the BBB follows a mission
statement like,"Hear no evil, See no evil, Speak no evil". I never heard a
negative comment concerning any business I checked on. The only 'satisfaction I
ever received was learning that 3 of the worst liars and scammers got caught by
the law and are doing serious jail time and or have huge fines and penalties to
pay. Bottom Line: Call the BBB if you have a question about a business. But do
not put any of your money out based only on what the BBB tells you. | | |
