You can try and misrepresent what I have said all you want, you are still wrong. HyogaRott Send a noteboard - 04/03/2013 03:45:24 AM

Insurance is the transference of risk from one entity to another, usually for a monetary cost. "Ponzi" is a descriptor for an investment or retirement method. They are 2 completely different things. Perhaps your confusion goes back to that whole understanding English problem that was identified elsewhere.

Can You Name the Largest US Program to ANNUALLY Collect More Than It Spent for 75 Straight Years? - 28/02/2013 11:03:18 PM 1315 Views
It's the world's greatest Ponzi scheme, since the government forces us to give money to it. - 01/03/2013 01:05:05 PM 749 Views
Yes, "government forcing people to give money" defines a Ponzi; speeding tickets are Ponzis. - 01/03/2013 03:53:02 PM 876 Views
Good lord my friend..... - 02/03/2013 04:19:35 AM 788 Views

Yes he did. He has very poor reading comprehension skills. *NM* - 03/03/2013 01:07:59 AM 459 Views
I really do not think I did. - 04/03/2013 01:43:02 AM 866 Views
I'm pretty confident you have - 04/03/2013 11:49:19 AM 852 Views
We evidently disagree on what constitutes a Ponzi scheme. - 11/03/2013 09:56:27 PM 777 Views
No, I agree with a clear definiton, you seem not to want to absorb that - 11/03/2013 10:24:47 PM 924 Views
It is neither an investment nor fraudulent. - 12/03/2013 02:34:09 AM 991 Views

Fraud="money contributed is NOT invested for the contributor, but instead redistributed to others"? - 04/03/2013 12:51:30 AM 773 Views

Dude, how is QUOTING you misrepresenting you?! And why must I ALWAYS ask that in these threads? - 11/03/2013 09:56:18 PM 824 Views
Well, can you get more wrong? - 13/03/2013 03:45:08 PM 730 Views

Do you sincerely believe people earning $14,560/year can afford investing 4% of it? - 04/03/2013 12:53:30 AM 883 Views
*sigh* - 04/03/2013 03:43:08 AM 716 Views
I tried it with compound interest; $44.80/month at 4% for 50 years still does not get to $1.25 mill. - 04/03/2013 04:24:51 AM 797 Views
Here are some clues. - 04/03/2013 04:37:39 AM 662 Views

how about respond to a post with logic and civility instead of being a troll for once? - 05/03/2013 11:03:00 PM 871 Views
All I have used is civility and logic, or least as much civility as was warrented. - 06/03/2013 04:28:04 AM 822 Views
