The maxim as a buyer is "Buyer Beware" (Caveat Emptor). No-one held a gun to your head to purchase. You read, you convinced yourself, now you regret. A little bit of healthy skepticism is necessary in this world with so many deceptive sales practices being used as common devices in every arena. The gullible purchaser is the ideal target of all merchandising and marketing. So don't be gullible.
The price of gullibility is tears. It was hundreds of years ago that the saying "A fool and his money are easily parted" yet in those hundreds of years many have not heeded the lesson of those words. P.T.Barnum recognised that there appears to be a continuing stream of those who are easily parted from their money and said "There's a sucker born every minute".
Entire industries are based around the Fool and The Sucker. Trillions of dollars of revenue are derived from them. Billions owe their livelihoods to them. In many ways the world could not run without them.
Do you wish to remain among them? Have you learnt from your experience? If not, be prepared to be burnt again.
