I wasn't born yesterday...or maybe, I was?

You know, P.T. Barnum once said "There's a sucker born every minute." I'm inclined to agree with him. I just spent the last short while "surfing" the internet looking for random things...mostly a job. It's interesting what you will find out there. One job ad said that if you agreed to pay their $20 membership fee you were sure to get an easy job that pays up to $50 an hour. Basically, they are advertising membership to a job search engine for $20. My question is, did someone actually pay for that, and if so did they think it through all the way before they forked over the dough? Come on, if you sign up there is a chance, a small chance that the companies they are promoting will have a job, and it says up to $50 which means $5. And, I don't think the job they are advertising is as simple and layed back as they make it out to be.
My fellow Americans, and Canadians, and other people groups of the world, I truly hope you are not suckered by some "get rich quick" scam. And if you are, let me tell you about the ocean front property I own in Montana...
