American Greed: Scams

Unread postby Falconoffury » Wed 14 May 2008, 21:30:02

There is this little show on CNBC of with I have fallen in love. It is called, American Greed: Scams. I am not really a CNBC watcher, but this show is all about scams and schemes of all kinds. The ponzi schemes are especially entertaining.

The best part is seeing people invest every penny of their retirement into a ponzi scheme. Rule number one of investing, don't put all your wealth into one thing. You may think I'm a terrible person for laughing at these people. To you, I say that these people invested into these schemes because they were greedy... and stupid. These are two qualities that should not be rewarded with pity.

A new episode will be on in an hour, and I hope you will be watching. Honestly, the only show I enjoyed more was, "I Shouldn't be Alive" on the Discovery channel. Yes, the band Tool was singing about me when they made the song Vicarious.
