Watch out for the hidden “gotcha!” in “free” government grant information products. We name names.

Two hours had passed. Never have I been so frustrated and captivated at the same time. I sat on the couch confused. The room was full, but I felt alone. I wanted to scream. I NEED ANSWERS. Stop toying with my heart Lost!

Normal people like you and me won’t get grants for daily living. There is no such thing as free money. And above all, stay away from the “Grant Every Day” CD.

Are free government grants legitimate? Probably not. The US federal government does give away free money in some circumstances. But if you’re being asked to pay for information or “member access” or to claim your award, you’re being misled.
