A lot of nonpolitical cyberbullies and offline untyrannical
mafia gangsters have canned and easy to guess objections to MasterMind
groups. Let’s instead look at the more
intelligent criticisms of MasterMind groups.
“The lowest earning guy brings down the group.” A solid MasterMind should help with a low
income. The low earning member could be planning
a business or he/she could have assets or sources of income he doesn’t talk
about.
People in specialized professions might not be able to
benefit from a MMG or possibly legally be able to participate in one. A professional might say if you need a
friend, get a dog. Then he turns around and
speaks with undergrads from his Greek fraternity on career advice.
Some accomplished individuals have said you must do your
work alone. For the most part this is
true. An entry level employee may really
bang his head against the wall trying to negotiate a career problem or a new
job. Who would say a fellow employee couldn’t
or wouldn’t help him? Possibly an
employee of a government that spends trillions of dollars, has unaccountability
problems, and pits one demographic against another, is who might not help.
I know we want to contribute. But don’t be taken advantage of by an informant
at a compromised organization of any type.
