As far as giving people information we do it far to frequently. ID theft. We do not even know how many places have your date of birth, address etc and have very questionable ability to protect this information. Your doctor, your bank, Medicare all come to mind. Heck in college your student ID was your social security number. We went to one of those investment seminars. Free lunch kind of stuff regularly offered. They of course are fishing for customers. People feel obligated due to free lunch. They had out forms and people were giving them name address phone, net worth where their money is. I left mine blank

I went to a seminar the other day hosted by UFH, about brain tumor treatment and patient support. It was at the Brownwood Hotel. We had a continental breakfast, then a couple hours of the seminar, then a full buffet lunch, which was truly delicious. We weren't asked to fill out a single form, or sign an attendance sheet, or show any ID at all.
It was informative and appreciated.
