Why are Business Opportunities solicitations such a red flag for folks in this forum?

Is it primarily because they tend to be over priced, crooked, or for some other reason?

I haven’t decided which direction I’m going to go in this business. I’ve attended a Planet Antares seminar one weekend. They were pushing machines for $6,900. I found the same machines on line new for less than half that. Used, for less than a grand.

I’d be really pissed if I had forked over any cash to those people at the seminar.

This week Buzz Bites, an energy snack company, has been giving me calls about their biz opportunity. After researching this forum and others, I'm suspicious of everything.

Are there any biz opportunities in the vending biz that are worth signing up for?

Yup stay away from any seminars. look on ebay. or internet for a good used machine.

I actually know a couple people that own some Buzz Bite Vending machines and they are doing really well. They knew where to put the machines and they kept a close eye on the machines to make sure that they performed well and looked good. Yeah I have seen Buzz Bites get trashed on these forums too and I don't really know why. Personally I love Buzz Bites and think they are great. They have also kept my expenses down because i'm not drinking a can of Red Bull in the morning for four times the price of the Buzz Bite.
