Freaky Friday Financial Fhrases
Posted by Valley Insurance Associates, Inc. on Fri, Oct 28, 2011 @ 11:42 AM
It's Halloween weekend and there's spooky stuff all over the place. In preparation for the ghoulishly grim weekend, I want to share nine freaky financial phrases that should send you screaming from the person uttering them.
- This is guaranteed
- You can't lose
- There is no risk
- This time it's different
- It's easy money
- Trust me
- I need an answer quick
- This is a limited opportunity
- I recommend this to everyone
Ok, so maybe you don't need to run away screaming. But each of these should give you pause and prompt you to really think about what is being offered or advised.
Do you have any freaky financial phrases you'd add to the list? What scares you when you hear someone say it?
