There are four main points or questions to ask yourself when determining if a program is worth your time and effort.

Question #1 What is the product ?

Obvious right? Most people do not do this very simple question. I have done it myself and let me say I ended up wasting a lot of my time. Do not cut corners and remember to do your research.

So what is the product ? Here is the same guidline that the Federal Trade Commision uses in determining fraud and scams.

“Would the average person buy this product if there were NOT a money-making opportunity attached to it?”

Does the product provide some kind of real world value all by itself?

Even if the product is just knowledge based does it provide the customer with real world value, can they actually use it.
