Pyramid Schemes
 
My "friend" set me up by sending me to one of those prepaid legal shield hotel seminars.

I guess I understand that the only way to get people to go to these is to fool them.

I've been fooled like 5 times. Someone you're acquainted with calls you and says that you've just gotta come to this meeting right away...

Then you sit there for 2 hours listening to a guy tell you how to become a millionaire by getting others to work for you.

Should I aggressively confront him about sending me to this naivety convention?

Or should I just never talk to him again?

I would elect option B.

And burn his house down.

If you can get you buddies to invest, you'll reach the top of the pyramid. That's when you really start seeing money roll in. It's all about motivation! Aren't you motivated? What the ****s wrong with you?

You know who else ran a pyramid scheme? Those guys in Egypt, but that was thousands of years ago. Their little scheme did not last long though although what they built did.

I was kinda surprised he admitted to that.

They know you're black and don't know you have any money right?

Hint: Friends don't do shit like that to each other.

After I realized I had been duped, I sat down next to a cute girl that I assumed had been tricked into attending as well. Right as I was about to commiserate I noticed that she was in on it as well. She laughed and clapped with perfect timing. She knew all of the jokes. And she just happened to have an extra pen and notepad so that I could take notes.

Yeah, I never saw this one coming. I attended class with this guy a couple of years ago and he never struck me as "one of them".

He texted me today and said he found a business partner that might help us get some movie equipment. All I needed to do was meet him at the sportsmen's lodge in an hour...

Why wouldn't you just get up and walk the **** out once you realized what was going on?
