Advanced Funding is “Two Tens for a Five”

by Structured Settlement Watchdog

JG Wentworth Pulls an Abbott and Costello

"That's why there's Advanced Funding. The fact is, people who have certain financial assets are often forced to wait to receive the full value" 

This little advertising ditty from J.G. Wentworth, already "char-broiled" in the 1-27-2006 Wall of Shame, deserves further mention as it reminds me of an old routine by the comedy team of the late Bud Abbott and Lou Costello . The routine called " Two Tens" is timeless**.

Go ahead listen to it and have a good chuckle! When it comes to structured settlement payment recipients in structured settlement factoring transactions (transfers) who do think is more like Abbott and who is more like Costello?

** Abbott and Costello fans can catch more great audio clips at www.abbottandcostello.net
