Just to be fair, it should be noted that these tacky info-mercials are not
created or owned by the likes of Larry Williams, Jake Bernstein, etc. They
are simply hired hands-- same as Sly Stallone is hired by a movie producer
to star in a Rambo flick.
"Hey Larry -- I'll give you a cool mill to sit in front of a camera for a
couple of hours and spout off about your incredible trading system. Once
enough suckers respond and I recover my investment and make another mill,
I'll give you 50% of everything we take in beyond that-- how's that sound
Larr??? What da ya think ??? -- Sound good??? -- Beats trading, Yes???"...
