Default DreamTeamMoney site

Anybody know anything about the site DreamTeamMoney? They look like they might be a competitor for this site (similar points system) but I can't tell whether they've got any good content.

Anybody read the site regularly or know something about it?

Thanks.

I've never heard of it until now. My first impression (and I do admit upfront that it's only a first impression) is that it's an online business site out to make a quick buck off of you. I just don't like the vibe. Here, people are interested in saving and investing. There, topics like gambling and MLMs appears to be encouraged. Here, points are more or less for fun. There, it feels more like a true token economy like casino chips. Even if it's legitimate, it's just not for me.

I don't think it is anything like this site. This site focuses on saving money, being frugal and personal advice. That site is full of business opps and auto surfing.

A lot of pyramid scams disguised as "investing opportunities." I certainly hope we are nothing alike

Thanks, everybody. I received a solicitation from them asking if I wanted my blog to be a partner of their site. I looked at it quickly and saw no real content and wondered if it was just because they were new and didn't have a lot of readers posting yet, or it it was because they're just a different beast altogether. Sounds like a different beast.
