The Gullibility Factor

Post a "poor me" thread with a cutesy name and a (pretty/young) girl avatar and even in the OT people fall over themselves to help out.

One of those threads by a (pretty/young) newbie had a lot of offers of help and support in the past few days. Of course the sob story was quickly followed by a WSO - which has been running on DP for a couple months (under a male name) - why am I not surprised?

The WSO - and the newbie - seem to be gone now. What kind of person joins a large new community and immediately launches into the details of their troubled financial life? Likely, it's someone with an agenda.

      January was long, February was iffy, March was a freaking dumpster fire.
      So sit down, be quiet, and don't touch anything.

    Did you know the giving part of LOA doesn't work if you are flatlining at the time?

    HeySal, I thought religious topics were banned here or does that exclude quasi-religions?

    You might not like what I say - but I believe it.
    Build it, make money, then build some more
    Some old school smarts would help - and here's to Rob Toth for his help. Bloody good stuff, even the freebies!

      LOA = religion? Really? Hmmm - LOA is energy manipulation so I would have presumed it to be more physics than faith - although they meld a bit.

        Do the other parts work then? Because I think some of the people counting on getting rich with LOA have been flatlining for some time.
