This is to be done as a preventive measure in order to avoid withdrawal complications during the process of PIPS restructuring. Global Mutual: All payments are currently being made on schedule, with no delays or complications being noted. GM is also undergoing a major upgrade in terms of the company's structure, with new features and services to become available for its members in the near future. StudioTraffic: ST has been experiencing a minor server downtime, but now both members' accounts and withdrawals are back to normal. John Horan, the CEO of StudioTraffic Inc., has declared the company's intention to introduce some changes which will make it compulsory for members to watch the websites during the process of surfing. This will allow the company to attract a few major advertisers, leading to its further growth and improvement. Reality Millions: Despite the promises of a prompt "transitional phase", no changes occured and both the members' funds and the website remain inaccessible. A new update is currently expected to be made by the program's administration. You can discuss these and many other programs with fellow high-yield investors on our forum at http://www.hyipdiscussion.com ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Sharing HYIP Experience (Part 1) (in co-operation with http://hyip-navigator.com E-magazine) The admin of HYIP-Navigator who is considered to be a knowledgeable high-yield investor decided to share his experience with people interested in online investment programs. Let's see what he's got to say. "In this article, I decided to present my thoughts regarding HYIP-investing and income from high-yield investment programs for beginners. You will not find any clear directions or recommendations here - however, I hope that some statements and pieces of advice will help you to acquire the necessary knowledge not only to avoid losing your money during the first month, but also to succeed in this complicated business. You will not see boring theoretic research and extracts here - only practical pieces of advice, coming from my own experience. Prior to making the first step, let's determine one thing: does this way of making money fit you? HYIP - IS NOT for you, if: 1. You value your money and are afraid of losing them In this case, you'd better head to a state or a commercial bank, where you will be receiving a very low but relatively stable income for "long years", not being afraid to lose your hard-earned money. Keep in mind: there are no reliable HYIP projects. Some of them last for longer than others yet close down earlier or later. 2. You don't even have a minimal amount of money (at least $100-$1000) for investing As you know, money makes money. By not having deposited anything, you cannot derive anything - no matter how many times you multiply by zero, you will receive zero in the end. So in case you don't have any money - go and work, HYIP - is not a magic stick, and there's not way to get profits out of nothing. 3. You've got a weak nervous system In this case, stay away not only from HYIP, but also from other risky ventures - otherwise, sleepless nights are guaranteed for you. If you are an emotionally unstable person making spontaneous, not well-thought decisions, HYIP is also not for you, since you are taking the risk of losing everything during the first month by making a wrong choice. 4. You like to blame others for your mistakes If, once a failure occurs, you blame anyone (be it administrator, friend, boss, government, God, weather, coincidence etc) except for yourself, you should stay away from HYIP. Keep in mind that YOU are the only one being responsible for the decisions you are making, and all the fault in case of a failure is yours. If you have lost money in HYIP - you are the only one who is guilty in your unpredictability and greed, having taken over your common sense. Remember that no one was pulling you on a lace and you have voluntarily given your money to a scammer. 5. You've got a scammer's nature If you came to this world with the purpose of making use of others, to succeed by cheating and scamming - keep off HYIP. There are enough scammers even without you in this arena. HYIP - IS for you, if: 1. You are a self-confident person, willing to take risk If your life credo is "The ones who are not risking don't drink champagne", and you are ready to take reasonable risk, then HYIP is an ideal way of making money for you. HYIP likes the risky ones who are ready to sacrifice their last penny in order to either receive a million... or to lose everything. 2. You've got a well-developed intuition and common sense Regardless of numerous pieces of advice and discussions, which you will find on HYIP-Forums, you should always conduct your own analysis (Due Diligence). The situation should be analyzed on the basis of your own experience, instead of recommendations of other people. If someone is trying to lure you into a program, you should keep in mind that the last decision is yours. 3. You are able to take losses and learn from your own mistakes HYIP doesn't like losers who walk aside after their first loss. HYIP is only for brave and persistent people, able to admit their mistakes after a complete loss, make the necessary conclusions, and then to rise from the ashes, like the bird Phoenix, and in brave pace not only to recover the loss, but also to double their capital."

The company claims to possess an offshore corporate registration in Belize (Central America). According to information provided by the program, "Offshore Club" generates profits from its active involvement with arbitrage bargains - non-loss trading with high entry levels, possible due to irregularities on global financial markets. The company participates in joint ventures based on the above-mentioned trading activity and uses the capital supplied by its investors to produce higher turnover. -Deposits and Withdrawals Deposits are accepted via E-gold and VirtualGold; the wire transfer option is also available for the company's clients. The minimal investment amount is US $50. Deposits should not exceed $10000 daily per single contract. In exactly one month 140% of the initial investment is displayed on the internal account statement under the "Available balance" section, and the money becomes available for withdrawal. Withdrawals are processed upon request. It takes up to 48 hours before the money arrives at your e-currency account; direct bank remittance normally takes 3 to 5 days. "Offshore Club" pays no rewards for attracting new members to its online program. -Program's Website Since internal online accounts are the most important part of doing business with "Offshore Club", the company's technicians have taken extensive steps to ensure the complete security of the program's website. Every internal account acquires advanced security features, with two levels of password protection being set up ("Primary and Secondary Passcode"). Speaking other security features, the SMS-authorization should be mentioned in the first place. Once you have chosen this option, you should provide the company with your cell phone number. Every time an attempt to enter your account takes place, a secure code is sent to you via SMS. Only having entered this code, you can proceed with accessing your account. Alternatively, you can choose PIN-authorization - in this case the code is sent to your e-mail address. In addition, the program enables its members to restrict the account access to a single IP address. This restriction can be set up manually - all you need to do is to log into your account and enter your IP address or its mask in the "Account Info" section. The website of "Offshore Club" also possesses an SSL certificate to secure the connection between the company's server and your computer. -Customer Support "Offshore Club" offers an extensive customer support via e-mail. Inquiries are processed 24 hours 7 days a week. You may choose to send a message to the support department either by using your e-mail account or by filling in a secure contact form on the company's website. -Our Opinion Despite the fact that "Offshore Club" is a relatively new company to online investment market, until now there have never been any problems with the operation of its business and abidance by the contracts. Taking into consideration multiple security features, implemented on the program's website, we can conclude that its administration is planning a long-term investment project. We would advise our readers to start out with a minimal investment to test out the account operation. If the business fulfills your expectations, you can proceed with a larger amount of money. However, keep in mind that any kind of financial activities involves certain levels of risk, so do not invest what you cannot afford to lose. ----------------------------------------------- If you are an admin of an investment program and would like it to be reviewed in our newsletter, feel free to contact us by e-mail at bravehoststamps@yahoo.com ----------------------------------------------- Bravehoststamps (bravehoststamps@yahoo.com) HI Newsletter
