Trading course: what to do
What people keep running into
- ponzi 1
- scam 1
Before you buy the next one
- Read the refund policy before paying. "No refunds" or "refunds only if you complete every module" is a warning sign.
- Ask for typical results, not best results. Income claims should come with what the average buyer earns. The FTC requires that disclosure for many business opportunities.
- Watch for the upsell ladder: a cheap course that leads to a "mastermind", then "high-ticket" coaching.
- If the main way to earn is selling the program to others, that's the business model. Check how much comes from recruiting.
- Pay by credit card so you can dispute the charge if what you got isn't what was promised.
