Greed

Ever wonder why are there so many victims fallen for fraud investment plans? We heard that everywhere putting investment in a Company, and you will get double or sometime triple your initial investment back in 5 to 10 years. Throughout where I live, there had been this type of scam going around. But still why are there victims of such common scam?

One day me and my friend went for a cup of tea, and he told me one thing. Try to cheat money from a poor person makes you a bully, Try to cheat money from a rich person makes you a hero *Just like robin hood?* . Kind to think of it, is rather difficult to cheat money from a rich person. And many if not all the investment fraud and scam's victims are the poor/ normal type categories.

Well, I guess it all comes to greed. The greed of one heart overtakes the ability for a person to think correctly/ rationally. Does that mean that rich people doesn't want to get richer? Of course not. Is actually rich people will not rush into things. They do want to get richer, but as you got richer the more stingy you might be. They will investigate think rationally whether this is the real deal or not, etc.

So when someone offer you a investment plan do take a step behind, think about it. The process behind it, is the return realistic. Are there previously the same tactics being used? *Normally they just ran out of ideas* etc.

This also tell use something else, not to rush into things. Is better safe than sorry peeps.
