...signing up for expensive products. Her mother-in-law is facing collections agencies who want to raid her Social Security because...
...of $7K in fees for accounts she never used and never wanted. These kids face career-ending termination if they don't perform...
...under relentless pressure to sell to friends and family from manipulative, hard-sell, older bosses who abuse and coerce them.
