We are supposed to learn. I confess I too have been taken but fortunately for at most $100.
As a kid, I sent away for FREE POSTAGE STAMPS used to advertised on matchbook covers. My allowance was like a quarter a week. Hey, inflation. That would cover a slice of pizza and a small coke. I sent in a coupon from a bus for
FLORIDA LAND. Remember the under water Florida land sales?
Mom, long gone, told me never to sign anything without reading it. I get many strange reactions insisting on this. How many times are we presented with a blank keypad-sign here.
We should ALL insist on reading what you are signing. That form is to protect NOT YOU but the people telling YOU there is no reason to read it.

Yes, it seems the older we get the more people like Michael L Whitaker and Associates to see us as targets for them to take advantage of. I hope this thread has been some help in saving others thinking of dealing with Whitaker. Of course, he says he only gives advice but the client makes the final decision. True but isn't he being paid to guide his clients to make the correct decisions? While it will not help me recover any of my money I hope that Michael L Whtaker also has to pay the price for the selfish, self serving why he "guided the lambs to slaughter".
