Sounds too good to be true sis...

Unfortunately, that is one of the reasons many of us (i.e. African-Americans) are broke and there are less than 5% African-Americans on my team at any one point in time.
Thailand, Australia, United Kingdom, various countries on the continent of Africa, Greece, Japan, China, Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, France, Italy, and on and on are many of the nations who represent members of my teams.
My teams and business partners always fall short in terms of African-American participation even though I put the same offer out there to EVERYONE.
Rather than ask questions to determine whether it is real or memorex, we simply purport to know everything and write or say "Sounds too good to be true" as 'others' around us gain the knowledge by asking the 'right' questions and thus have 6-figure or 7-figure incomes.
It makes me laugh on one hand and it makes me cry on the other. But the crying is short-lived. ;)
Nonetheless, it doesn't deter me. My success is not contingent upon another's mindset. I am also not out to change the psyche of anyone.
For you, yes ... it is too good to be true ...
p.s. I have had a 6-figure income since 1996 with a coupla years in that time frame where it went down to a 5-figure income. But that is a rare incidence indeed and I PRAISE the LORD for His BLESSINGS!
