Quotes to ponder:

"They chronically take advantage of other people, usually playing on their emotions, to persuade them into giving up access to money, assets, or credit."

"Financial manipulators don’t seek help from the cynical, the critical, or the pessimists. They target the kind, the generous, and the optimists who always see the good in others."

"Financial manipulators will toss their problem at you like a hot potato. You have to be smart enough - and strong enough - to let it drop on the floor."
