Earn money all you want but NEVER enforce anything to anyone!

It's annoying when someone keeps bugging you to join something you're not interested in. There's this person who kept sending me messages EVERYDAY to convince me to sign up in this marketing company where he recently joined. I don't mind him doing that actually. What made me really furious was when he posted a blast saying, "the reason why the poor remain poor is because they are being offered help and they refuse the help." And added, "they are lazy and dependent to their parents in stead of doing something to help their present condition".
Of course, he wasn't referring to me. But, I just felt really upset that he had to really post provoking messages JUST to express his sentiment that those who he's inviting are hard to convince! Oh, he even made mention that he's offering help! Duh!
So, I posted a reply telling him..."if you really wanna help them, you only have to understand that they don't have any spare money to spend for the joining fee. So, why not sponsor them and just take back the money once they started earning?"
Any experience like this?

Every day? Really? This person sounds more desperate than wanting to help. 
Anyone who has to put down others to succeed is not a person I want to associate with. You brought up a very good point. If he's making all that money then why not sponsor you? Put his money where his mouth is so to speak. 
Since its such a great program, his investment would be returned quickly right? If you really wanted to join later, I would find another sponsor. Why help him build his business? Never experienced this before and hope I never will.

it's the 1st time I experienced this kind of thing, sergeantrom. He wasn't really directing the words to me, but when he started saying, "the poor" are this and that, that's when I got angry. I have a huge heart for the poor, y'know. That's why I help them in any way I can.

You said it right! Whoever made a decision that they rather stay poor for the rest of their lives and not try anything that could help them alleviate their situation? Goodness! This person don't even stop and think first before making weird statements. *at wits end*

Me too and these days its very easy to be close to the line of poverty. Not everyone chooses to be poor. Who in their right mind wakes up every day and says hmmmm think I will be poor today. Even if he were trying to help the poor, they probably don't trust him. He's harassing you, who knows what else he is doing.

I think the best strategy is giving NO reaction at all. :) If you react to his letters, he thinks he has got the chance to reach his goal and convince you sooner or later. If you do not react.. No chance..:)
I think this guy understands nothing from real business and marketing methods and making relationship..
My other guess is maybe he likes you and want to go out with you.. :D
Cheers,

That's a rather funny conclusion there. hahaha I don't think so. But, well, it's not something that will convince me to go out with him since he annoyed me, if you know what I mean. hahaha
I'd rather take the reason that he could prolly don't have the know hows of the real business and marketing methods...and building relationships for that matter.
Thanks for your comments. ^_^

This is very good advice. Probably a good idea to ignore this rude person. Besides, as long as you know how you feel about the poor and your dreams, it does not matter what he thinks about you or the poor. Its obvious he does not have good business savvy as this poster pointed out. Don't waste any more time on this person.

I have received some emails basically spams offering such kind of promise but never give it much thought. I have friends who sends me some invites about money making things but never enforced it. In your case, I believe the guy is trying to hard to earn that it already is irritating. I really admired how you answered on the post... "if you really wanna help them, you only have to understand that they don't have any spare money to spend for the joining fee. So, why not sponsor them and just take back the money once they started earning?... Let us see how the person answers on this and see if that person really meant helping others...

Thanks for the compliment. I just can't understand why he had to say bad thing just to get them to sign up, you know. I meant no harm. I just want him to stop whining that the poor aren't doing anything for themselves. Real help is make them work their assess off without forcing them to shell out any amount. *sigh*

Yes, there are many people who always have a tendency to provoke others. They cannot understand that the persons whom they are provoking can well understand that they are doing so for their own benefit and in this way the persons whom they are provoking may also be benefited to some extent. Rather they are helping themselves and not those whom they claim to help.

It is very obvious that they badly want sign ups that's why they're pestering others. I hope they stop saying they helping. Because they are really not after anyone's welfare but themselves alone.

Hi friend, some persons are interested in getting referrals and they are sending this kind of messages. They are not interested in spending money for other persons as well as their referrals, simply they wish to earn a lot from their referrals and don't have any interest in spending for referrals, even they don't guide about that program properly to their referrals

Yes, I am sure you're saying things accurately. They got no other concern but to get them more referrals to their advantage regardless how the people don't have anything to shell out. But, they will certainly do whatever it takes to prod those poor people. But, not me.

Thanks for your empathy, riyauro. It's ok. I had taken care of him without having to say rude words. I just hope not to encounter another person like him. And I will be wary not to be anything like him, as well.
