That seems to be the one that sticks out to me. Lets face it when you're that young it's hard not to be a bit naive, and theres no shortage of sharks out there looking to earn the trust of these people and than cut their throats when it's to their advantage. Often these sharks can be acquaintances of agents whom these guys trust to look after their affairs.
