Once in a while an otherwise rational and intelligent person will come to me with a get rich quick scheme. They will have earnest and urgent reasons why it must work. They will state that they have to act now or the opportunity will be lost (Reminds me of those congressmen who don’t read legislation but insist we must act on it now or the republic will falter!)
Some old clichés are old clichés because they are true.
If it sounds to good to be true then it probably is.
It it’s such an easy, lucrative money-making scheme, why is that strange man sharing it with strangers? Common sense tells you that the dude has found an even easier, quicker money-making scheme: Selling crap to you!
Imagine if that device really did drive bugs and rats away. Then country folk could sic all their vermin on city folk and at last have their revenge!
If it is that good at killing living creatures or cutting grease, have you ever stopped to think that you are a living creature and that you are essentially made of grease?
Washing your hands and keeping your hands off your face will beat out hand sanitizers any day. Hey after using a gas station bathroom I go for the industrial strength hand sanitizer but on some level that stuff has to be cheapest stuff available and a world-class ripoff. Where can I sign up for shares in that company!
Did anyone else notice that governments spent billions on a vaccine no one would take for a disease that was less lethal than the normal flu?
That foot wasn’t luck for the rabbit!
Now let’s look at some rip-offs!

A dozen ways to win a million dollars
By poetryman69
Publishers Clearing house has been giving away up to $10 million for some time no and it costs nothing but some time and a little looking at some ads to enter.
PCH million dollar sweepstakes
If you fancy yourself a pirate and you have always wanted to tell some salty sea dog to surrender the booty, try the TroppoLotto sweepstakes. Just as with most sweeps these days, you may have to get past a lot of ads to sign up and enter the sweeps but it still doesn’t cost you a dime so why complain.
TroppLotto million dollar sweepstakes
FreeLotto also runs a sweepstakes that can win you a million dollars. You can try it here:
Never sign up for anything that costs you money when entering contests and playing sweepstakes games. Don’t give your banking or credit card information since you are not buying anything.
Anyone who charges a fee for entering or winning a contest or sweepstakes is ripping you off so move on and don’t pay the fee.

Origami Fortune teller and Cootie Catcher
By poetryman69
Apparently you can tell the future and catch cooties at the same time. A cootie catcher or origami fortune teller is a cute way to keep a child amused. Fold up a bit of whimsy, work those magic fingers, and tell you child you can answer questions and tell the future!!!!

Clearing and Lightworkers: Esoteric Alchemy
By poetryman69
The evening sky was an Angel in rags
All golden tatters running to horizon
Chasing the sun as he fled
Hair aflame crashing down through blue skies into the sea.
The evening sky was a plumed serpent
shedding iridescent scales as it fled through the horizon
The evening was a tattered sky full of golden ragged light

Soft Landing in 2010. Chinese Business Proposal
By poetryman69
What is needed for some to begin doing business is a soft landing . A business school in China taught by and English speaking MBA who is fluent in Mandarin. Imagine learning the customs, eating the food, learning the language, meeting the local businessmen in a comfortable America friendly environment. Wouldn’t that be nice?

Importing Clean Tech from China
By poetryman69
Since Obama doesn’t seem to want to give much of that money he is printing to US green tech companies, we may as well import our green technology from China. They developed their lead in green technology from the money they make off of us so why no take advantage.
Buy your wind turbines from China
China spends $34.6 Billion and the US spends $18.6 Billion on Clean Tech
Giving the trillions that Obama has printed and given to the wall street thieves who all but destroyed the entire financial world, it is difficult to see why he can print and buy energy independence and jobs by putting in enough solar cells and infrastructure to power the US entirely off of solar energy.
