Magic Silver Bullet Syndrome Continues

We all know the definition of insanity is continuing to do the same thing over and over and expected different results. Well in the world of the magic silver bullet syndrome we see a new definition of insanity and that is believing that there is a magic silver bullet.

Below kindly see an email I recently received, notice the pitch which is one of the great magic silver bullets (passive income for doing NOTHING). Rule #1 is there is no magic silver bullet and this rule is founded upon the reality that there is no business income with sales and marketing. Products, services, information all require purchasers and in order to find purchasers marketing, advertising and sales are required. Anyone who believes there is income to be made without any sales or marketing is unfortunately a victim waiting to happen. Just read this closely and ask a simple question “How is this promoter earning money?”

Karl,

My friend Brad discovered an ‘underground’ money-growing loophole that wealthy insiders have been keeping to themselves for years.

It allows anyone to effortlessly start earning an extra $1,000, $3,000, $5,000 or even $10,000 or more in passive cash flow every month...
The best part is it doesn’t require any recruiting, selling or talking to anyone.

It’s all covered in a new video presentation that finally exposes the truth about passive income no one else is willing to tell you.

BUT…

I need to WARN YOU about it before you watch it...

It contains some very controversial information that will probably piss off some “gurus” in the internet marketing and home business industry.

==> Watch the video to find out why.

I especially love the “wealthy insiders have been keeping to themselves for years.” Remember, in order to sell the magic silver bullet there must be a secret that you can now take advantage of. The secret is of course be kept for decades, centuries or eons and now suddenly you can get this secret for some price. Those who have made millions are now willing to share their secrets with you for a small investment. This is the typical main theme in all magic silver bullet offers.

In order to avoid this pitfall just ask yourself, if you had a system that made you thousands of dollars a day and you worked many years to accomplish this and perfect the system which continues to provide you with millions of dollars of earnings a year would you want to sell it to others for small amounts of money? Would you want to spend tens of thousands of dollars in marketing costs to reach out to all these individuals when you could simply continue to use your system to earn thousands of dollars a day? I think you know the answer.

Myths, Lies and Damn Lies

The advent of social media has proven to be both a blessing and a curse. The double edged sword of vast amounts of information freely flowing 24/7/365 is filled with myths, lies and damn lies.

The perpetration of scams, fraud and predatory sales manipulation is easier than ever before. Instant credibility is created through well-meaning organizations and operations. Unfortunately these entities survive on advertising dollars and therefore take a position of enabler. When an organization thrives through advertising money they have a mandate to look the other way. They have no responsibility to provide any due diligence or do even nominal research on anyone who is willing to pay dollars to advertise. Of course there could be the perception of a moral and ethical responsibility to protect the investors, consumers and public from bad advice, mis-information and flat out lies, yet the reliance is on the archaic advertising laws.

An incredible amount of the investor and consumer public live under the false impression that “everything on the internet is true; it must be because it’s on the internet.” This lie has been promulgated by the major social network operations which I won’t bother to name because you know who they are.

One such business based social network organization has myriads of groups which are started under the guise of a source of information and education. Conceptually this would be akin to Napoleon Hill’s master-mind group concept. Sadly, these groups rapidly descend to spam, scams and other manipulative sales motivations. A master mind group is formed to share insight, wisdom, and experience and through such to generate greater impact then the individual could accomplish alone.

Napoleon Hill would be rolling in his grave if he could witness what many social media groups have turned his precious concept into. The many groups are passed off as Angel Investment, Venture Capital, Investment groups, and many other business specialties well too many to list. In all of these groups the moderators (when there is a moderator) cherry pick based upon their own conflicts of interest. Rarely is there a truly educational and informational group in the mix. The most damaging issue of all is that these groups become fertile ground for scams and frauds to be perpetrated. Now, scammers and fraudsters don’t even need to invest in the promotion of their dark intentions, as they can simply slip into any social media portal and prey upon the 100’s of thousands of available potential victims.

This all can be controlled and easily avoided through the process of having a 3^rd party advocate. An advocate is only concerned with the best interest of their client. There are no conflicts of interest, internal biases or ulterior motives. The advocate exists to inoculate and insulate the client. Total inoculation and insulation is developed through education, media sourcing such as webinars, tele-conferences and virtual web based activities.

The Advocacy Network is your master-mind group formed to enhance your ability to make smart decisions about money.

Over the coming weeks I will be producing blog spots that will identify common myths, lies and dam lies in the financial market place. Believe me when I tell you there are too many to list and I could produce pieces for the next several years and not cover even a quarter of the scams, frauds and sales manipulations in the financial markets. As an investor, consumer or business you need to be aware of the potential abyss vying for your dollars on a daily basis. I look forward to serving you in your quest to make smart decisions about money.
