This company is advertising the same illegal "school", licenses, exaggerated income potentials, etc as the former USRB which was recently investigated, indicted, and prosecuted by various law enforcement investigators of various agencies from state to Fed. Several of those "instructors" were sent to prison. Additionally, this individual may be harvesting e-mail addresses from this network in an effort to recruit new, naive members. As always, "Buyer Beware". It is every consumer's responsibility to RESEARCH any advertised training or solicitation from any training facility as to its professionalism, legitimacy, accreditation, and acceptance in the industry. I implore all individuals to avoid this organization at all costs. Even its very name violates Federal Law under U.S. Code title 18.

Mr. Landrau, It's ok. What you are unaware of is that 1 of thier recruiters was here earlier this morning spamming FRN advertising usbda. That is the reason for the recent post made by me. It was not intended to re-open your entire soap opera you endured with them earlier. This is just a simple warning to new and interested people looking for training not to attend this scam of a "school".

I see them falling by the wayside almost weekly.... and they sometimes are my friends... they call me and wonder how I managed to stick it out... and I just look at them and say.... "because I do not rely on this business as my sole income..." It is a very interesting business... but it is "cutthroat, backstabing, sometimes dangerous and financially stressful" but if you stick it out... one day you can look in the mirror and say to yourself............
