It took me over 10 years to barely get where I am now (and believe me, my journey is JUST beginning). In that time, I spent a lot of effort making friends and building relationships. During that time, I walked into a few situations where I got screwed over and I was taken advantage of by people with less than noble intent. Would I pay $50, or $100, to cut to the chase and get to the meat of the situation if it meant I had guaranteed access to people who have the power to make things happen (as long as I had the goods to make it worth everyone's while)? You bet I would.

Being screwed over by people who are willing to take your hard work and profit from it whilst laughing behind your back is no fun. I think Blazetrak is merely providing another avenue for people to bridge the gap and cut out the weeds in the process. Here's another thing. They're not putting a gun to your head and forcing you to buy into it. If you don't want to, DON'T! No one's gonna kick your ass on the way out and if you do choose to try it out in the future, you'll be welcome.

The hard way is HARD. For a lot of people, I would say don't quit your day job, but for those who have it, have it, and should consider something that could be their golden ticket. Willy Wonka put golden tickets in candy bar wrappers. If I remember correctly, Charlie had to go into a store and purchase a candy bar first before he could unwrap the candy.

At the end of the day, there may or may not be a golden ticket in your candy bar, but at least you still get to enjoy the candy.
