or even worse, they would say... Oh can I do it? Then you have to explain all that and it can become very tedious. Know what I mean? Anyhow, I'm just trying to figure it out for now... !

Tell them you're an Investment Strategist.
It sounds better than "I play HYIP gold games."
What is mine... IS MINE :party: aaaand, what is yours, Mr IRS, is partly MINE TOO....!!!:rofl:Quote:

I still want to know what to say next.! HA!
Tell them that a Investment Strategist takes advantage of the system to get returns better than average say bank. That its all in the system! Invest.

Say what you want to say and do not explain. When they ask, just tell them, "It's nothing personal but I like to be discreet about matters of my personal finances. I never know how things will turn out and I would feel responsible if someone I know ended up losing money in a venture they learned about from me."Quote:

Funny,
It really comes down to one word in my opinion, "entrepreneur". Although I have been a financial consultant for years, I will rarely box myself into one category as I have several businesses, as well doing daytrading, FOREX, Arbitrage-Sports, as example. Also as a distributor for several companies, everyone in is a prospect, so I use broad term until I know why they are asking. (g)
I don't do HYIP's, regardless if they perform or not, and even if they did, in my circles of traditional business minded clients, HYIP's are well known to be all Ponzi scams, so the fastest way to destroy a business would be to mention HYIP's. (g) I admire Ponzi personally, as he did not set out to defraud investors, it just overwhelmed him in my research. LOL
Good luck to all, Mike
