Investment Talk

A few months back, our phone was ringing off the hook. The calls were for Mcj - the caller was trying to convince him to sign up to a stock trading business (might be like futures trading). He was on the verge of signing up already. He had filled out the contract while also doing some research about the company. He'd uncover positive reviews about the trading scheme, well that is for the system that they are using, not really for the company. He was tempted. But he found out that there is another company that do the same trading in the same floor as the one that contacted him yet the latter has no idea about the former. It sound dodgy considering of their proximity to one another. In the end, he negated on the deal though he still received a series of phone calls to convince him.

I was sort of relieved that he didn't sign up on that deal. I am a person who needs to see tangible proof before dipping into my pocket. The amount involved was not to be joked of. It could make us a sort of like palace back in the Philippines.

So yeah, it really pays to do your homework. Thanks to the internet for making those data available. I know there are investment companies that are good, you just have to know who are they.
