I take investment advice only from blonds with small waist and large breast who wears short dress suits.
I dream of the day work can be a choice instead of a necessity.
The article doesn’t mention this, but I find it very helpful to do a public records search on the people or companies who are pitching an investment or business venture. Court records, recorded documents, tax records, and state corporate records are especially helpful. If your records search reveals that the smooth-talking guy with the BMW and posh office has a bunch of lawsuits, judgments, tax liens, defunct corporations, big debts, etc. on his record, RUN away as fast as you can.
