A practical guide to evaluating an opportunity
A thoughtful decision starts with clear facts, realistic expectations and time to review. Use this page as a conversation guide, not as financial advice.
1. Understand the activity
What do participants actually do day to day? Which skills, training and time are involved? Ask for a plain-language explanation before considering anything further.
2. Understand the money flow
Who pays, what are they paying for, and when? If compensation is involved, ask how it is calculated, what conditions apply and whether the explanation is available in writing.
3. Check every cost and commitment
Ask about upfront and ongoing costs, time commitments, obligations, cancellation terms and what happens if you stop. Do not rely on verbal summaries alone.
4. Consider uncertainty
Ask what could cause a different outcome, whether income varies, and what risks or losses are possible. Past results and personal stories do not guarantee future outcomes.
5. Verify independently
Read official source documents, check claims and take time to compare what you hear with what is written. If needed, seek advice from an independent qualified professional.
Write down anything unclear and ask for the source document. You do not need to make a decision in a first conversation.
