This is interesting to me for a couple of reasons. I have a friend who trades and periodically he takes time to select a person from ET and train them. He doesn't take money for this. His "students" have to agree to make a donation to a charity (they choose how much and which charity) or, they agree to do volunteer work in their community (hospital, school , elder care facility, red cross, etc). It is all on the honor system by the way, and he doesn't mention it again, except if they find success. Then he asks them once again to make good on their promise and never says another word about it. The guy really knows the business and puts alot of himself into the work. Not all his students are successful, and he tells them right off the bat that he guarantees nothing except his intention to work hard to help them. He shows them what he does, answers all their questions and stays with the project through a reasonable period of time, and at some point, he says to them, "hey, I have done all I can do for you, you're on your own, go for it" Never shows anyone any documents, just gives of his knowledge and explains patiently why things do or don't work. He looks in on these threads and when folks talk about "unconditional moneyback guarantees" and "audited records" and references, basically what he says is "Hey, I'm a private person", "I could never submit myself to that kind of scrutiny". After a while, I see that it is really just too bad and so many of you have been screwed by folks who don't really have anything to offer except bullshit. I think there must be folks like my friend who have the time and the inclination to help others, but just don't have a temperment for that kind of close examination. Probably the same reason why so many good folks wont run for public office. Just my opinion. Lefty
