I think your 100% correct. Nice insight.

By observing who your statement "bothers" the most by their responses will be your mentioned demographic, or those who find humor in noobs struggles. Quite sad but very accurate. surf

There is a chance that the offer is bogus, and it's all just a ruse to pocket those sign-up fees.

Assuming that scenario is the case, it won't be long before credit-card chargebacks and paypal protests will shut down payment acceptance. Even if the disclaimer is air-tight and TST successfully defended all chargeback attempts, most merchant banks and (for sure without question) PayPal do not tolerate numerous purchaser protests.

If TST ran a ruse where nobody got funded and the whole thing was all about subscriptions, resulting backlash from purchasers would quickly shut down their ability to accept payments other than cash or wires. So that in itself is one measure of validity or lack thereof to the offer held out to public for payment accepted.

No clue who the target market is really. Only Michael knows. Or maybe he himself doesn't know.

Maybe anyone who need capital, wants to join a firm, wants to demonstrate their talent, or any number of reasons.

Umm Surf........you are by far the most vocal. You sure you agree 100%:


"message board posters who pretend to be successful traders for all the ego reasons men pretend to be what they are not tend to be most vocal of all other groups"
