Ponzi Schemes Ruin Dreams...
Most of the all-time 10 biggest Ponzi schemes collapsed during the 2008 financial crisis and an even bigger Ponzi scheme is about to implode soon. Today's frothy financial markets provide exactly the right conditions for a market meltdown and Ponzi scheme collapse.
Unwitting investors will be financially ruined and left holding the bag.

You might be surprised to learn you are invested in one of these schemes already, either directly or indirectly as part of your mutual fund, pension fund, hedge fund or other investments. Many innocent victims suffered financial ruin simply because they didn't spot the Ponzi scheme red flags and warning signs until it was too late.
Knowledge is power, and by following a few simple steps you can protect yourself and your money.
