Morons, all of you!

Just stumbled upon this discussion.

I have no idea what 'juice' is all about, and quite frankly I don't care.

I just wanted to leave a message for all you idiots who use the phrase "too good to be true". I can get (without even trying too hard) 400% on my investment.

Actually, it's 12% per day, but who's counting?

If I ever hear anyone, ever, anywhere, say the term "too good to be true", I instantly know they are a financial moron, and deserve to go to work every day for the rest of their pitiful lives.

I can only say one thing to all of you - GET AN EDUCATION!

Sorry, that should be: GET A FINANCIAL EDUCATION!

Or you can just keep saying "too good to be true".

Morons!

My 7 year old grandson spent $2 on Koolaid and cups to start a Koolaid stand on Saturday. He sold 18 cups at a quarter apiece in an hour and a half. That's a gross of $4.50...or a net of $2.50. That's a return of 150% on his investment in only 1.5 hours.

Although his ROI was wonderful, he didn't feel the need to call other people morons or idiots.

Anyone can claim that they are making great ROI. But, as my example clearly shows, ROI doesn't automatically translate to lots of money.

Nor does saying 'too good to be true' mean someone is a moron or that they lack financial education. Making 400% ROI with little effort is certainly not impossible. Why do you think scam artists do what they do? But, as a rule of thumb, most people need to be wiser in their decision-making when it comes to 'get rich quick' schemes. They need to perform due diligence, but often don't. Reminding them about 'too good to be true' is simply reminding them not to get so emotionally caught up in a money-making scheme that they can't think clearly.

Frankly, I question your motives for writing as you did. It sounds more like you *don't* want people to think clearly, that you *do* want them to get emotionally caught up and make bad judgements. What is it...call them names and perhaps you can sucker them into making a bad decision that makes you money???

Actually, I couldn't agree more.

I unreservedly apologise for my remarks - not quite sure what came over me.

Not that this is an excuse, but I had spent most of the day celebrating a personal event with far too much red wine and scotch, and my judgement was obviously effected.

Again, my apologies if I offended anyone.
