These things always bother me. And it seems there are an endless supply of people waiting in line to throw their money away.

I'm referring to job offers, financial seminars, etc. Anything where you pay upfront to get started. It's a scam.

They may actually pay one person legitimately, so that they can advertise the product. But that's all it is. Someone who legitimately makes money, but I guarantee the only people making money are the ones in the advertisements.

They also plant people at their seminars. People who ask certain questions. People who look "sharp" and are first in line to sign up at the end of the session.

People never learn.
