Hey gang. It's your favorite misfit reporting in. Just to let you know I am still alive. I had a recent run in. That has set me back once again. When researching a potential partner or buyer of a business Due diligence is essential.

I went into a business venture with my stepson. I won't go into the details of the business but he was doing most of the grunt work while I offered to do the back Office work. He got into some trouble and long story I ended up having to sell the business.

I sold it to someone who had similar qualities of my step son. Unfortunately I found out much too late he was a bullshit artist of the worst kind. Right now I am so broke I cant even afford to pursue civil charges against this bastard. It pays to do your due diligence on ANYONE you are working with whether a business partner or a buyer of a business. Now I have to come up with funds to sue his a$$. Not fun. I cant stress enough how due diligence is a REQUIREMENT when you are going to sell someone your business or go into a partnership. Pay the $30 and do your research. It will save you thousands in the long run.

I always look for the good in people. I guess inbusiness you have to expect the worst. that is all for now. Oh I made 25% on a trade today in forex so life aint all bad. Just wish I had the capital from my business sale to compound instead of a paltry savings. I'll get there. Tenacity is key. Despite my obstacles I will reach what I am looking for.

My advice to the single with no dependents, Stay that way til your first five million. Women are expensive. LOL.
