Emergency Cash and Emergency Money Plans - Financial News, Explanations, Calculators and Cheat Sheets
Winning in the Cash Flow Business
One of the most important steps that you need to successfully complete when trying to obtain your financial goals by winning in the cash flow business is to never purchase Russ Daleby's program: Winning in the Cash Flow Business. Although the price for purchasing this late night, overly hyped and hawked, get rich scheme might have a price tag that looks affordably appealing, it is nothing but a setup for come ons at a later time.
Popularly presented
If you're those individuals who stayed up late at night watching television, you have more than likely stumbled across one of these terribly long infomercials that claim you can become unbelievably wealthy through the brokering of cash flow notes. The presentation is highly emotionally charged trying to convince viewers that there is nothing to it when it comes to negotiating and buying financial payout arrangements made to various individuals and, in turn, selling these to others. The presentation tries to claim that it's a fairly simple process locating people who are the beneficiaries of settlement payments such as life insurance annuities, lottery winners and other types of structured payout settlements that do not offer a lump sum option. This is not a new concept. There are many financial institutions throughout the world that invest in these type of situations, buying the payout arrangements at a reduced rate, then profiting from holding these until periodic payments are made complete, thus resulting in a tidy profit.
However...
Unlike financial institutions that are in the business and have the resources to conduct such transactions, you wind up being in the broker position attempting to convince the holder of a periodic payout structured settlement to receive a lump sum that is considerably less. Now, the second part of your job is to locate someone to make that lump sum payment who, as a concept states, shares in the profit with you. This all sounds fairly simple does it not? That is until you start to be inundated with contacts from Daleby's team of relentless demanding associates hounding you to purchase additional elements in order to make the program successful. These additional elements include subscriptions to monthly information publications, special management training supplements and even a specifically designed calculator to be put to use in your new business. Ultimately, the real winning in the cash flow business is Daleby's since he's playing upon the emotional desire for people to get wealthy. He knows he's playing a numbers game and banks on the fact that you want to become successful so you will take the advice of his sales associates and purchase all the additional material to ensure your success. He wins, you lose.
Way to Win
There are many legitimate financial institutions that seek investor participation in cash flow note transactions. These institutions will provide you with a legal and undocumented transaction indicating a guarantee on the amount of money you can make on cash flow note transactions. Although, this infomercial-based, get rich scheme looks pretty easy, in fact, it is not. Again, the only winner is the owner and creator of the program that you may become trapped into purchasing.
