Not only do they believe in the ride, they enjoy the notoriety that comes with being invited on the ride. Unbelievable. Better yet.

No matter how you look at the "Illegal act" in the echelon circles, to most you and me people we have gotten used to the "get rich quick schemes". As long as you stay under the radar, have a good believable story, know how to "sell" the story and can rely on a never ending pyramid of people (which doesn't exist yet the infinite number for most people starts at one million) you can continue "selling" the ponzi. <br><br>The reason why I say Ponzi's are looked upon as heroes of society is because, although the victims got taken for a ride, they still believe in the "ride" no matter how hard you try to explain that infinity doesn't exist that magical number is still a million.

The reason why I say Ponzi's are looked upon as heroes of society is because, although the victims got taken for a ride, they still believe in the “ride” no matter how hard you try to explain that infinity doesn't exist that magical number is still a million.

Friday is dedicated to planning out the "kill" zone for Saturday monring. I must say I try not to go on these Saturday morning outings because they are just too demanding. It's hurry lets go, it's 6:30 and the first sale is at 8:00, then why are we leaving so early? They expect us to get there early... Then why don't they advertise an earlier time? It doesn't work like that. Once there if nothing is found then it's hurry, hurry lets go we've got to get to the other one, quick before anyone else does. White nuckles, I know what they look like. Much too competitive for me. I guess I'm slowing in my old age. The Ponzi scheme did interest me though, how do I get intouch with this lady??????????????????
