[Maritime Q-Scout]

Hey guys, sorry to bring this back up . . . but not really.

A friend of mine e-mailed me about a business opportunity, being the egotistical capitalist that I am I was more than happy to find out what he was talking about. He passed my info on so I could attend a seminar that's happening tomorrow night.

Cool, I thought! (Still think so too)

I got a call regarding the details and found out it was about a company called Primerica. I said I recoginzed the name, but couldn't remember where from. He mentioned about how it's part of Citigroup and are going to be opening 3 new offices in my area.

When he talked about part-time employement I wasn't too keen, but was more interested in the full-time possibilities that he'd reference then lead away from. Naturally I thought they were looking for part-timers and didn't really need any full-time staff at the moment.

Then I went to Google their ass. Naturally. I don't want to walk into a seminar unprepared (unless I'm getting course credit). I found a few websites about the "Primerica Scam". Then I thought the good people at CP will know!

So as I typed the title of my thread, I thought "I better search this, avoid a possible fata". Score one for MQS, I found this thread (no fata for me mother fataers!)

Anyway back to my serious self,

I'm going to attend their seminar and see what they have to say. A few sites warned about fast paced presentations, and to paraphrase the websites in my own words "smoke and mirrors". Having debated competitively for over ten years, I can generally spot misdirection a mile away.

That said, has anyone attended one of these (I'll be re-reading this thread tonight)? Anyone have any suggestions, tips, things to look out for when they're presenting?

Thankyou in advance, and I promise to tell you how things go

(PS: The presentation is downtown where the bars are so worst case scenerio I don't have far to get drunk, hell I don't have to leave the building to go to my favourite bar in the city, can I get a woop woop)
