Global Pension Plan rush out denial of email…
Well it looks as though Global Pension Plan are continuing to frustrate and confuse the membership. Over the last week or so members received emails purporting to be from the GPP admin and advising that payment options would soon be available.
As it turns out a denial posting from the ‘genuine’ GPP admin has now been published. So what does this really tell us? That the old database hack is still being used to try and fool people into sending additional funds. It really is important that going forward you don’t act immediately on anything from GPP until you are sure it is genuine.
There are many people who are monitoring anything being sent out so it shouldn’t be too hard to wait a little while and see what they have to say.
Also, updates are always published in your back office so that is another way to check to see whether it is genuine or not.
Having said all that whilst the admin has denounced the email that was sent out they don’t really provide any concrete information about the real payout. Some commentators are suggesting that GPP is a scam and until there is some proof either way it will be beholden on us all to not spend too much energy or time trying to second guess what might happen.
The update on the site does indicate that payments can still be made so there is still a question over just how close any payout might be.
Team Themco closes in 4 days 5 hours 35 minutes 31 seconds and counting…
Okay, now really is the time to act as the deadline at Team Themco is fast approaching. I know myself that paying out funds yet again to another online investment may seem a bad idea and no-one would blame you for passing on this.
But wait. Just think about the risk and reward here. If you are not already an active member (or even a member) you can only buy one policy as the chance to invest in more has passed.
So, for $90, which to be honest is little more than a reasonable meal for two, you have the potential for a return of $90,000. Wouldn’t it be worth just missing one meal out for such a return?
If things don’t work out the worst that’s happened is you’ve missed a night out. If it does work nights out could become the norm.
It’s acknowledged that Team Themco are trying to make this work and because they are keeping members updated with progress there’s a good chance that it will.
Getting a guarantee of payout would be great but realistically that’s not going to happen. Yes, there is a risk but to be honest what’s life without a risk or two.
You only have until Wednesday 07 July to become a member or to activate your previous membership. I’d suggest that AlertPay will be the quickest way to pay so don’t delay.
It really would be a shame if you missed out and if it works you’ll be in a great position for any future ones that Team Themco are planning.
Yes, there is only 4 days, 5 hours 24 minutes and 8 seconds to go…and counting!
Team Themco need your birth date…
If yu haven’t checked the Team Themco website lately then I’d encourage you to head over there as soon as you can if you are a member. They need you to provide your birth date so that they can use it in the next stage of the plan.
Actually it’s also important to make sure you have a policy registered before the cut off date of Wednesday 07 July. If you haven’t paid for a policy then you will not be able to proceed.
At the moment there is an oportunity for non-members to join so if this sounds of interest to you then please send an email to admin_at_onlineinvestingguru.com (replace _at_ with @) and I’ll be in touch.
Each policy requires a $90 investment and the reward is $90,000 per policy. In this first venture you can purchase a maximum of 4 policies but they do say that further programmes will follow so it is worth getting in now to prosper in the future.
Originally over 20,000 people registered and as often happens in programmes like this the number who follow through drops quite dramatically which means opportinities for others.
Whilst no-one guarantee that a programme like Team Themco will end successfully the membership are being kept informed on a regular basis which is a lot better than other programmes manage.
World Pension Plan edges nearer to closing…
Whilst no-one could say that the remaining Reverse Pension Plans are shooting towards their targets there is some progress being made.
Take the case of World Pension Plan. Their target is 70,000 policy sales and at the moment there are just over 3,500 remaining.
What will you get if you decide to invest? Well, firstly the investment you need to make is not that high, $55 per policy. And for each policy you have you will receive $80,000 in return. You will need to provide some proof of identity but apart from that the whole process is pretty straightforward.
Payment is made via Liberty Reserve and you will receive confirmation once the payment is made.
In an effort to speed up the purchase process there is currently an offer where for every policy purchased above 5 by an individual you would receive an additional one free.
If you want to tell others about World Pension Plan there is an incentive plan that you can join. This provides the necessary referral links that you can send out to others or include as part of an email signature or other marketing method.
Given that the number of policies remaining is relatively small all of the hard work in attracting a critical mass of members has been done and with a fair wind it shouldn’t take too long to close out. For what is a relatively modest outlay World Pension Plan is offering a great return.
Results are in for Imperia Invest poll…
A few days ago I asked readers to take part in a quick poll to see how many TEP policies people had invested in with Imperia Invest. Well, now the results are in.
Before we look at the results in detail let me just show you what they are in summary:
Virtually half of those who voted have between 2 and 10 policies. This means that their return will certainly be of significance and some prudent financial planning will be needed.
I was somewhat taken aback by the number who have between 101 and 200 policies as these members will need a very robust strategy for managing these funds.
Interestingly it seems that for higher numbers of policies people took the view that if you want over 50 then you might as well go for 100+, let’s hope that they receive all they are entitled to.
A reasonable number of respondents are taking the seriously cautious approach and only investing in one policy. Perhaps the silver debit card package would be ideal for this group.
I’ll admit that this poll was highly unscientific but it does at least give an idea of the sort of distribution of Imperia policies in the wider world.
If you have not yet applied for a debit card package as yet I’m sure you may be feeling fairly frustrated right now as the site has been down for several days. Given that purchases have to be completed by April 30th you will need to keep a weather eye on just when the site will be back.
Let’s hope we get some greater clarity on just how things stand in the not too distant future as debate and speculation are really getting out of hand currently.
The quandary that HCI25 presents…
An email was issued today from the CEO of HCI25. This is something of a departure from normal communications as most updates are published directly on the website rather than sent to individuals. So, it must suggest that extraordinary measures are being taken with this approach.
In fact the email is fairly typical of those from HCI25 in as much as there is a fairly robust defence of how they are performing and only fairly imprecise details of when payments may likely start.
At the beginning of 2010 there was something of a furore when the company attempted to pass off some photos as having been taken at the first investment seminar whereas there was evidence that the photos were of a completely different event. Whatever the rationale it did not go down well with the membership.
Episodes like these have not shown HCI25 in a good light and they do struggle to convince people that they are genuine. Putting forward a strong rebuttal of all the negative commentary the latest email could make people think a little and perhaps give the HCI25 team a little more time to prove their claims about payments and when they will start.
There is some optimism in the update and hopefully this will be fully realised in a realistic timescale.
Imperia Invest debate spans the extremes…
I don’t think that any online investment has sparked such fierce debate as Imperia Invest. Of all the posts I’ve penned the subject of Imperia Invest has created the fiercest debate.
On one extreme we have those who have a wholehearted befief that Imperia is genuine and will faithfully pay to the other where whatever is said they are convinced that Imperia is a scam.
So, who is right? Well, from everything I’ve seen neither camp provides conclusive proof one way or the other. From the supporters we’re told that some mebers have already received their cards and their funds are available. My problem of course is that I have not yet seen verifiable evidence that this is true.
On the other hand those who proclaim Imperia a scam put forward arguments about lack of evidence of offices being where they say they are and insufficient information about the new debit card provider. Again I’m not convinced because any astute financial organisation would be very wary about providing too much information regarding their whereabouts and even more so about another financial organisation.
Of course I expect this debate to continue raging until we have conclusive proof one way or the other as to whether Imperia will pay out. Personally, I’m not spending an awful lot of time worrying about this as we have a published timetable to follow and admittedly infrequent updates but at least they do communicate.
I’m keen that the debate continues but I will start to be harder on comments made unless there is specific evidence to back them up.
Global Pension Plan website re-appears…
In something of a repeat of last year the Global Pension Plan website went offline just before Christmas. It seems that domain registrations were not dealt with efficiently.
However, today an email was issued to announce that the website is back although under a different domain name. The new site, http://www.global-final-step.net allows members to login into their back office.
As part of the message members were also informed that there still 20,000 additional policies to be purchased which is an important step in the process. We’re told that the current agreement between the Trust Partner and Insurance company runs out at the end of February, hence the target is to sell these additional policies by then.
If this doesn’t happen a further delay will be incurred whilst a new agreement between the two groups is made. This clearly adds to the frustration of members as many similar schemes are indicating similar constraints and potentials for delay.
The question with Global Pension Plan therefore is what to do about purchasing additional policies. The needed investment is €10 per policy so the cost is not high. The problem is that many members are weary of these continuous delays and don’t really have the appetite for further purchases.
So, we find ourselves in something of a Catch 22 situation. If we buy will others, if we don’t how long will this whole process take to complete.
Personally I’m considering my position carefully and will decide early next week.
What’s your thoughts on this…
PWW4YOU offer closes in 3 days…
Just a quick post to remind people that the PWW4YOU offer finishes on December 15. For those who are not familiar with PWW4YOU it is a Reverse Pension Plan (RPP) that pays a fixed sum out in exchange for a waiver on your part of an associated pension plan.
In effect you as the policyholder are giving up your rights to the full value of a future pension in return for a fixed sum today, $75,000 for each policy. As long as you are under 67 years of age you will be eligible.
The purchaser of your policy is then able to create a large cashflow each year as policies mature, some will be relatively soon and others will mature over the next 50 to 60 years.
Each PWW4YOU policy requires an investment of $50 but up until December 15 there is an offer available where if you invest in 3 you get a 4th free, invest in 10 and you get 5 free and invest in 20 and you receive 10 free.
It doesn’t take too much math to work out what the returns would be under these circumstances so you’d be wise to make a multiple purchase soon if you are in a position to do so. If you are not sure seek advice from someone you trust before joining up.
Payments are made via Liberty Reserve. For some strange reason the offer is not mentioned on the PWW4YOU homepage so just be aware of that. You would need to make a purchase of 1 contract for $50 and then further purchases to the number where you want to take advantage of the various offers.
When this offer period started (01 December) there were in the region of 18,900 policies available. The current figure is 17,125 so you can see that about 10% have been sold in this period.
PWW4YOU have special offer until December 15th…
The idea of leveraging a small investment for a large return is always very tempting.
For those people who have been involved in online investing for a while the concept of Reverse Pension Plans (RPP) will be familiar. For newcomers they offer, for a small fee, a sizeable return.
They work such that you sign over the rights to the returns from a pension plan (in the future) in exchange for a fixed fee (payment now). The organisation that buys the policy is then able to obtain the full value of the pension when you reach retirement age.
If you think about it this could be a highly profitable venture as the purchaser can guarantee a good cashflow for many years to come assuming that a wide range of ages participate. As individuals we benefit from being paid now and not having to wait until we retire.
One RPP has recently re-launched having come to an agreement with the insurance company they are working with. Pensions World Wide 4 You (PWW4YOU) is now in the position where they want to finalise sales of their remaining policies as quickly as they can and are offering incentives to do so.
So, until December 15 you can take advantage of the following deal:
- Buy 3 policies get a 4th free
- Buy 10 policies get 5 more free
- Buy 20 policies get 10 more free
This represents real value for money, let me explain. Each policy requires an investment of $50. For this you will receive $75,000 in return when payouts are made. If we take the example where you invest in 3 policies for $150 (and get a 4th policy free) your return would be $300,000 rather than $225,000. I’m sure you can work out what this represents if you were to invest in the higher number of policies as shown above.
So what’s the catch? Well, as most people are only too painfully aware no RPP has yet paid out and making an investment in PWW4YOU is therefore a risk. However, it is clear that negotiations have been going on in the background to ensure that the framework was right for this to complete.
I had refrained from joining earlier but the fact that this offer is on the table makes it very attractive and I’ve made an investment on this basis.
There are in the region of 18,500 policies available so there is time to consider whether this is right for you. I’d recommend that you do some research before jumping in if you are new to this form of investment. Don’t forget however that this offer expires on December 15.
Keep an open mind and make your decision based on your circumstances and not on speculation or hearsay.
