Good advice. A little late for me. It's conditioning too. For my Father a handshake was a contract. That is how I was reared. No one said there are sharks out there ... I had never met people like these... Trusted too much although the one investment was rated triple A by Standard and Poors....

When one meets a person in a workshop on Integrity... Goes to his lavish home,sees him driving a Corvette,meets his wife and children.... and knows he is head of the Board of Realtors ethics committee, one tends to trust. Only later did I find out that the house was rented, back rent owed, car was leased and his wife was in on the deal.

So much for the past.

And I do not expect the government to protect me. In fact three different lawyers said fraud was hard to prove.
