It’s time to bring a dose of reality to this blog but not negativity.
Instead of battling and pleading with my creditors to give me more time to pay overdue balances. I’ve decided to let them take CCJs against me.
I’m definitely not going the bankruptcy route I decided to take in 2007.
That was a really bleak time and I was a lot weaker mentally back then.
All I’m concentrating on right now is keeping the roof over my head and food in the cupboard.
You may leave comments that I’m being irresponsible but hey your opinions won’t keep the roof over my head.
Until the next time
TTFN

Richard, how many of these money making schemes like MAP and Banners Broker do you need to lose money in before you realise that they are scams? If they really are great friends and family, why have people like Simon Stepsys, not supported you and lent you money to stave of the CCJ’s? I think it’s such a shame that you keep ploughing money into these things when you can’t see them for what they are. I hope you’re okay, and that you get through this okay. I also hope that you wake up and smell the coffee – these people aren’t your friends, and these programs are all scams.

Sorry Jon I disagree about MAP. I’ve withdrawn quite a bit so as far as I’m concerned MAP works.
The only mistake I’ve made was relying solely on MAP as an income stream and not building other income streams at the same time to mitigate any issues.
Also it isn’t up to Simon Stepsys to hold my hand. For one he isn’t my sponsor in MAP.
Second we’re independent business owners so we make our own choices about what businesses we decide to get involved in and we all know the risks involved.
Thirdly no one forces anyone to join a business we’re adults so we don’t blame our sponsors for our misfortunes and expect them to bail us out.
In conclusion I will continue to put money into these types of businesses not just because of the potential money making aspect it’s because the product i.e. advertising works.
Thank you for comment I wish everyone that attempted to comment would do so in a constructive and mature manner.

Rich, I’m really sorry. If you were truly an independent business owner, you would own your own business. You’re just a re-seller of a dodgy internet scam. You can’t have withdrawn that much or you wouldn’t be in so much debt. The reality of these programs is about the ROI and not the advertising – you should know this by now. There is no magic money making machine that allows it to spit out your €50 with a cherry of €10 on top. It’s the same as Traffic Monsoon, Banners Broker and all the other HYIP’s masquerading as advertising revenue share programs.
How many failed programs must you be in before you realise this? I feel for you. If you really want to be an entrepreneur, set up your own thing based on your own ideas and hard work. Simon Stepsys is known to be a conman, yet he has pretended to be your friend. If my friends are in trouble I help them – that’s what friends do.

Sorry I still disagree Jon.
I’m not going to get into a discussion about how much I have withdrawn, by your wording you seem to think I haven’t withdrawn much. In fact I have withdrawn too much in hindsight and quit my job too quickly.
You are entitled to call MAP and similar businesses whatever you like. I beg to differ.
As for making judgements about individuals, until they’ve done harm to me directly whether it be in business or in my personal life I won’t alter my opinion of anyone, even then I don’t bash individuals in public. I’ll just choose to no longer associate myself with those individuals.
Again thank you for your comment.

I’m not taking money off anyone I’m not the owner. So please do not put words into my mouth.
MyAdvertisingPays isn’t a scam. That’s my opinion until I see otherwise I will continue to support the business.
Thanks for your comment.
I’ll be turning off comments on this post now as this is my personal blog. I won’t be discussing any businesses going forward here.
