What does the price of oil going up have to do with the
number of stupid business opportunity buyers and the number
of stupid business opportunity plans? As will be
demonstrated…everything! This was a ruse that was
very popular in the 90’s, as business opportunity
telemarketing was in its heyday, and, given the current
conditions of one market, has seen a resurgence in business
opportunity telemarketing. You get a phone call, letter, or
email from someone who states they have inside information
on a particular market (by the way, I would like to
interject a quick message and thanks to those nice people
that always send me their friendly letters, postcards, and
emails offering their plans about how to make a million
dollars in a month or so doing nothing; I have enough of
them, no need to send anymore). The plan involves
predicting the price of oil (in the past, this could be
gold or silver, however, given its price volatility, oil is
the “in” commodity and the perfect vehicle for
this ruse). Now the broker will tell you that because he is
such a nice guy he will give you a free tip on the current
pricing of oil and all you have to do is monitor the price
and take note of his expertise, and, what do you know, the
broker is right, the market did exactly as he had
predicted. The same guy comes back with another free tip,
and, once again, the broker is right, the market did
exactly what he predicted. In addition, the broker lets you
know because of his uncanny ability, he is richer by a
hundred grand or so. It won’t be long before the
broker will send you pictures of how he lives the high life
with expensive cars, a beautiful home, and exotic
vacations, ostensibly all due to his expertise in
predicting the market. Now the broker wants to know if you
are ready to invest and live the way he does by taking his
advice on his next prediction. People send him$1,000,
$5,000, 10,000, and some even $50,000. However, investors
never here from the broker again and never see their money.
What happened?
The broker will call, mail, or email 1,000 people. To 500
people he will predict the oil market will go up and to the
other 500 he will predict the market will go down. No
matter what the market does at least 500 people will
believe the broker accurately predicted the market. The
ruse continues with those 500 people (of course, the other
500 people are never contacted again), who will now receive
the second free tip. Once again, it does not matter whether
the market went up or down because 250 people were told the
market would go up and 250 were told it would go down. So
now the so-called broker has 250 people who believe in his
ability to predict the market and are ready to invest with.
What happens to the 250 investors now becomes clear. The
broker tries to extract maximum investment from each one
and after he does splits town with the dough (usually
hundred of thousands of dollars) and gets ready to
perpetrate the same tactic in another town or to another
list. So, as a means of facilitating the business
opportunity industry and its less-than-noble strategy and
tactics, and as the headline so eloquently states; this is
why it is more important to have more stupid business
opportunity buyers than it is to have stupid business
opportunity plans.
