  • Forced Matrix Opportunities: A Slippery World of Sinkholes - Part 2
    The idea has been around since we first ditched the barter system for a monetary system of coinage. You could create a system of growing money by making entrance to the system affordable, rewarding people for bringing others into the system, and using leverage to build volume and profit. It is called a forced matrix. An analysis of one offering would result in 8.5 billion people being involved after 33 days. Does this make a lick of sense?

  • Mailing Lists: If You Must Err, Then Err on the Side of Caution
    Almost any recognized Internet Marketing guru making you an offer today will mention somewhere in his sales pitch that a mailing list is really important, however, his primary objective is to get you to buy whatever he is selling. Competition is stiff in acquiring names, and some Internet Marketers have less resourcs than others, resulting in some pitches to sign up without being given any information on which to make an intelligent decision.

  • Shopping Online = Caveat Emptor (Latin for Let the Buyer Beware)
    Internet Marketers shopping online are presented with a problem because they cannot examine the goods before they commit to buying. This fact of purchasing works in the seller's best interest, and the seller, not the buyer, will do anything to keep it that way, including, but not limited to, exaggerating claims, playing upon your emotions, pressuring you to make buying decisions, and being disingenuous in an attempt to relieve you of your money.

  • USPS: It Reminds You of the Army, and its Call to "Hurry Up and Wait"
    Why aren't those postal lines moving faster? If you thought it was because the front counter people at your post office are slow and inefficient, think again. Usually in the battle between men and machines, it is the man that slows down the machine; in the case of the USPS front counter processing software, it is the machine that is slowing down the man, not to mention annoying customers and aggravating postal employees.

  • Man's Biggest Love Affair May Be With His Car
    The love affair with men and their cars is legend. More than one divorce has been blamed on a man spending more time with his car than his wife. A guy that may know how to make an engine purr may not know that the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference. Communication is the glue that holds a good marriage together. If you ignore communicating with your wife, Ed Bagley gives today's Internet Marketers a sobering thought to think about.

  • Financial Predators: Vermin, Rodents and Other Insect Pests
    While there are predators all around us, we generally do not think of our financial providers as predators. When Ed Bagley receives a postcard in the mail advertising a $5,000 loan you can receive tomorrow with only your signature as collateral, he digs a little deeper, uncovering the source of the loan and the fine print terms of the loan. What he discovers is shocking, and fair game for exposure so that unwitting borrowers know the score.
