For the past about three and a half years I have been involved with a few work at home opportunities. None of them worked out for me. I was so mad at wasting my time (and in some instances my money) that, soon after each one “failed” I was calling them scams. I am not [...]

Have you ever asked yourself this question?
It crossed my mind a couple of times.
I found a first version when I was browsing a forum dedicated to a certain HYIP (I’ll talk about HYIPs some other time). At that time almost everyone was very happy with its performance. Of course it all came to an end [...]
