Caveman to Millionaire?

Posted by dave on March 3rd, 2010 at 07:47am

OK, today’s asshattery comes to my email from someone pimping the latest & greatest ClickBank stuff.  I’ll withold the sender’s name, because it’s the product page he’s promoting I’m after today.

The email’s subject was

“… Millionaire in 12 weeks”

uhum…

Here’s  what’s being pimped

Caveman to Millionaire website

Justin Blake's Caveman to Millionaire Blueprint

Wow…an 8 month old bank statement as proof of how amazing brand new product is.  Let’s take a closer look:

An Asshat's Old Phat Bank Statement

a classic case of misdirection

There’s the highlighting of the big number too…so he can show sheeple what he wants them to get from this picture.  Have you heard of misdirection?  Have you done the math of ALL the numbers here?

If you have, you’d know that, indeed, there is more money in the account at the end of the cycle than at the beginning.  You’d also know that the total of all the debits (the minus signed numbers) is greater than the sales figures he’s trumpeting on the graphic.

I am impressed that this asshat did manage to (unintentionally) show the costs in addition to the sales figures.  You’ll be surprised how many asshats make pitch pages all talking about their volume in sales without a peep of the spend necessary to achieve these numbers.  If you remember anything from this, remember this:

sales ≠ profits

If you still really want to buy what he’s shoveling, just click on any of the above images & you’ll find yourself at the referenced website.
