PAYING FOR MEMBERSHIP WITH GOOGLE CHECKOUT
DON’T respond to this informational page by buying. We just put a price on it because that’s what the shopping cart program demands. As much as we could use $100,000.00, we think that's a lot of money for information.
Right now, paying by check (sent in with your application) is the most reliable way to join.
Watch this space. We’ll be adding links soon that will allow you to join at every level (but you'll still have to complete and send in your application).
