Boca Raton, Florida—Imperial Structured Settlements, LLC, a leader in the advance funding of structured settlement payment rights and assignable annuities, responds to disreputable industry blogs.

Buzz surrounding seedy blogs posted about structured settlement and annuity factoring companies has grown dramatically over the past year. These blogs generate a confusing and daunting challenge for those searching for facts. Providing purely biased views, bloggers offer bad advice, lack industry experience, and more often than being misleading – they just get things wrong.

Deborah Benaim, Senior Vice President, commented on the growing trend, “There’s an overwhelming amount of negative articles published in the news and on blogs, especially about our industry.”

“What these bloggers fail to mention is that by selling a portion of future payments these people are able to raise money today to make a better life.”

“So, I decided to launch a book club to boost employee moral and provide time to engage in thought provoking conversations,” continued Benaim. “I thought the club would be a great way to stir up some positive energy and bond the team.”

The first Imperial Structured Settlements book club meeting took place November 6, 2008. During this time the group shared insights on the autobiography The Last Lecture, by Randy Pausch. In his book Pausch, diagnosed with terminal cancer, is asked to give his ‘last lecture’. He speaks on "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams”, focusing on the importance of overcoming obstacles, enabling the dreams of others, and the importance of seizing every moment.

The success of the initial meeting has prompted the group to meet and review a new book each month. Last month’s book was The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway and the group is currently reading Lord of the Flies by William Golding.
