AustinMom...Those two posts that you refer to, were written prior to being contacted or my visit to the Freeman Group headquarters and meeting Bill Freeman. Both of those posts were written in anger. I can't remember the specifics or when I deleted what. But in both cases, I decided that I did not want to get involved with the rants and raves of everyone who had been duped by the company. Instead, I chose to forget what everyone else was doing or saying. I merely wanted to worry about my own situation. And I figured that having those two posts on this board would do nothing to help me get the results that I was very fortunate to end up with. Who knows, maybe whoever was monitoring the boards from Freeman at that time, noticed what I had done. And maybe that is why I ended up being contacted by Bill Freeman.
To answer the person who asked me to explain Bill Freeman's explanation of what went so wrong with his company, I'll just say this (because I figure anyone who is still owed money, is probably not going to accept any explanation as anything but BS). I was told that a couple of years ago, a personal tragedy in Bill's life took him out of the picture physically and emotionally. By the time he returned to the controls, the individual left in charge had soaked the company dry and skipped town/country. Despite all possible efforts to dig out of the hole, well, everyone knows the story. So, did Will and Rob know what was going on at the time it was happening? Who cares? I'll bet 50% of us out there, have worked (as employees) for companies that are no longer in business due to financial failure. Are we bad people because we stuck around even after the rumors or trouble started?
I hope I answered the questions.
