If you haven't put in at least 10,000 hours of staring at live chats and/or blown up at least $50,000 or a couple of multiples of, you are not close to getting it.
This thread is funny. Who doesn't drop $160 in the first hour of evaluating a new business opportunity or even on a nice dinner? Nine out of ten times they go down the toilet, what is the big deal?
I call bullshit, I don't think these things cost more than $20,000 and you wouldn't be caught dead without one in the business today. If you were you deserve what you got.
