What isn't a ponzi here?, id go as far and say that most offline and long term private programs are ponzis - historically thats the way they usually turn out.

What does it matter anyway - just treat them all as ponzis and your less likely to get burnt.

Theoretically, everything is a ponzi. Stocks, alot of people invest and the prices raise, if everyone sells the stock goes down. If there are no shareholders, the company is done. Just think that every investment you could lose, so don't get too angry if you lose a couple times because eventually the reward will be great.

There out here, you just have to look.

I've said this before, I'll say it again... you really have to look at the whole picture when you invest your funds into something. If you see something like KUM for example, the way they ran their business had red flags all over it for me. They were, "private", turned out to be a scam, but I never even thought about seriously investing with them.

If you have been reading my posts, and you're a savvy investor, you will see I don't really care if anyone joins. I just offer this for people interested, and raised the limit to keep out the penny investors.

Good luck with your ventures!

I guess, you're rich if you don't have to (don't want to) compare prices here and there, just buy the things where you are at the actual moment. Of course there's a treshold. Rich people are also comparing prices. Maybe 2-5% does not count for them, but 20-30% does. Being rich is starting with sparing money.

BTW this "non-comparing" thing can be also done if you have little money only, but that's not called "being rich". That called "being plain stup!d"...

By my point of view, I am rich comparing to a medieval king.

Yes, I have better clothes than him.
I can travel in luxury in my car comparing to his lousy cart.
I have glasses on my windows. He has big windy holes in the wall.
I have running water. He also has if he walks out to the river.
I have electricity. He also has if he's climbing up to the tower's roof while lightning out there.
I have natural gas. He also has, but he can't cook with that...
I have telephone/TV/internet. He has couriers who brings news bi-monthly or so.
I am at beginning of my life with my age of 34. He is an old man with this age.

However...

He has gold. A ton of it. I have 0.000015 oz. of e-gold at the moment. But it's improving!
He has power. I have horsepower. In my car.
He can decide over life and death. I can decide: drink or drive. (This means I can also decide over life and death, haha!)
He has a strong army. I have a root account with admin rights on a networked computer. (At least as good, believe me! )
He can marry any women he wants. I can divorce legally.
He is a moderator of all his forums. I can simly turn off my computer if I had enough of forums.

you said really good. It brings me laughter at the moment. thanks for your intelligent and humor.

Hyips don***8217;t let you become rich. As soon as you make some profit with a hyip, you lose them in another. The only way to earn some money in hyips is to gain as much experience as you can and learn from your mistakes. And even those who become rich with hyips, are gone now and are enjoying their life.

can not earn that much

I'm not rich...for now!) But I'm keep trying!!!!!

[homebizkid]

HYIPs and Autosurfs are not the best way to be rich. You ca be rich tru it but it aint the best way. Some online business opportunities abound, its left for you to experiment and work out what will be your business for a long time. My 2 cents.

I'm not rich yet.
But I will strive to reach my goal and that's retiring after 5 years.
It's comming closer and closer and the money is growing so I'm on the road of early retirement
