Interesting Theory

I run into the guy that sold me Superantuation like 20 years ago....hes a fully qualified investement adviser....he tells me he has like several sites on the net giving investment advice , stock advice, etc. He then tells me he charges like $250 a month for membership tp these sites. I ask him do people really pay $250 a month for this?....he says NO!....but, he says the government agencies like Security and Exchange Commision, etc, do because they moniter all sites like his that are into this area. In short he says each site has about 12 members!
He tells me thats the whole point.....he knew no-one would sign up at 250, but he knew the government agencies would be forced to sign-up to moniter the sites. and 250 is nothing to these big departements.
Anyway, i cant say how true it all is....but i must admit he has a good point....makes me think of what i could do that government departements would sign up to moniter....fuck, ill charge 500 a month.
