Mary Gersten?

This post comes in two parts. The first deals with a warning and the second is an invitation. Just a short note first though. I just looked at the Google ads on the right. Google is in business and they probably don't personally look at every ad that gets posted. There was one that said they make $95,000 a month, and do you want to go from broke to rich fast. What a mountain of slippery bull stuff that is. Just a good example of what bad liars that some people can be.

I really don’t like negatives so I am going to make this short. As the title above suggests, this 'online opportunity' isn't bad, it's ugly … so you need to stay away from this one if only for the protection of your money. If you only want to learn how to place media (send emails, printed advertisements, post cards, etc. - I did all of that) fine, ... then only spend the $250 they charge to learn how to do that. But do not spend the extra thousands that the ‘media coaches’ say that you need to spend in order to make really big money. I spent a total of $3,000 with Mary Gersten only to make a whopping $100. Mary Gersten’s media coaches are only there to talk you out of your money in order to pay for a brand new building full of ‘media coaches’. In short - set your money on fire. At least you will get warm by the fire.

It may be a little disappointing to get two posts in a row that are on the negative side of the coin, but my job here is to save as many people from loosing their money as possible. I have made that a priority on my blogs. If you have got some experience with products or services let me know. I would even let you post a comment with a link back to your website if it is worth wile to someone's pocketbook. What I don't want to do is to check out products that you are just trying to sell (I will personally check it out the story anyway before it is posted). I am doing this because I am sick and tired of people that hide behind a website, lie to people because they are only out to steal as much money that they can get their hands on. I've made a little money and I've lost money, I just want to level the playing field a little. I'm sorry for getting on such a high soapbox, but I feel that the little guy deserves a break

There will be more information to come ... not all bad I promise. Hopefully though this post and the previous one saved you some money.

Sincerely, Dave Carlson
