Financial junk mail....

[help4john]

Seven hundred million trillion tons of junk mail are sent out across this country every year. I get half of it.

Much of it would make me rich if only I would listen. "More explosive price action ahead in low-priced stocks," reads one envelope. "No-risk triple bonus offer enclosed!"

"Inside," reads another, "find out how $8,750 grew to $405,125 in only 13 weeks!"

"Free!" reads a third, "Get 100 Shares of Stock in a Public Company with This No-Risk Offer."

A hundred shares of stock free? Wow! I wonder which stock it is. General Foods? Hewlett Packard? Sears? The letter doesn’t say.

The way to deal with junk mail is not even to look at it. Anything that arrives with less than twenty cents postage or a computer-generated address label gets tossed out unopened.

Does anyone ever bite for these nonsense scemes?

I am very fortunate to never receive them.

I'm jealous! Once they find you....they never stop! They should be called the Junkinators!

I am considering sueing Capital1 for stalking me. I get about 3-4 large trees in my mailbox every week from them. I dont have time to play around with all those stupid games like filling their return envelopes with pizza hut coupons.

Once I incorporated, I no longer needed to purchase wood for my fireplace.

i like the newer methods a few companies use.

put all the little junk flyers into one envelope called "value-pack" and just mail that.

i actualy open that and get cool discounts for maid services, drycleaning, restaurants, etc. in my area. all good.
