I have been interested in Real Estate Investing for a couple of years now. I paid well over $30k for a Real Estate Investing training in the beginning of this year. Everything happened exactly like it was described in this video. The sad part is that I learned about BiggerPockets after all this happened. I wished I did some research before I enrolled. This has created an opportunity to learn from our mistakes, and to raise awareness for those who want to jump into the Real Estate Investing world. Our business is still moving forward because no matter how little or how much we pay for a training, it is still about us to take action!
Many thanks, I been tryin to find out about "tips for finding the right realtor" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Siyamilla Financial Bigshot - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some amazing things about it and my friend got amazing results with it.
This was great, I been tryin to find out about "graduate real estate courses" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Yiyrianna Tonwen Theorem - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some decent things about it and my friend got great success with it.
Sam Ch Are you talking about the free seminar that you went to or the one where you pay the first time after the seminar and then they did what you described which is trying to upsell even more expensive classes?
@@jaysant6958 my experience was for the free seminar. No way am I silly enough to give them any money. There's a news report on CBC from 2010 that talks about this company, which even Robert Kiosaki did not like or approve what this company is doing.
Going to Community College to take a couple of courses in Real estate will build your knowledge and skills like No other Gurus! And only for a much cheaper price!
This is so right. I am a smart woman and got hooked in this spam. I have always been interested in real estate. I spent over 40K to learn how to give them my money. The booth camp was the same. It did not teach me any information on how to buy, remodel, and sale properties. I received some DVDs on with more sales pitches. I was paying for a private coach but received a group walk thru of a house describing how it could be made over for profit. SO, TO ALL DON'T GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY!
So I attended the rich dad real estate investment seminar today 11.17.2018 and this video sound about right. Using the name rich dad, I was looking forward 5o seeing Mr. Robert kiyosiki and just to my surprise it was one James M Smith. The training was brought by "Legacy Education". If I am right, legacy education has nothing to do with Mr. Robert kiyosiki.
I went to a 1 day free seminar, then a 3 day workshop I paid $695, then they offered elite classes ranging from $14K and up to $40K , I didn't sign up but, I did buy one individual class for $1500, haven't started it yet, as I finished the 3 day workshop earlier today. But, well see how it goes. I'm 110% committed to real estate investing and know the importance of learning but, I don't want to get ripped off. if I was a millionaire then I would care but, at the moment I have little money
I went to 2 last week lol and I was about to sign up but I stopped myself via the power of rational thought. I'm glad you made this video because it answered all the questions and doubts that I had. Tha I you
Trips .27 yeah I attended a live 3 day training at Fortunebuilders. It was high level real estate training. It my goal to get accepted to the Mastery program. I got a long way but they gave me great advice. My journey has a longer runway but i will never give up on my financial goals.
If you got sucked into one of these things but didn't spend over $1000, don't beat yourself up. Observe there pressure sale tactics. Decided what's unethical and what you could use in your own business that could be used ethically. So don't just see it as a Real Estate seminar, see it also as a crash course in sales with some very talented salesmen.
Not Taking Action is the #1 reason people fail at investing! I've been to several of these Guru pitches and they are all somewhat like what Brandon explained. so rather than buying on emotion I researched which one would work best for me before I purchased and training. Now that I have some small success I still go to them and look around. I see the gullible people that Brandon is talking about but their biggest problem isn't that. The biggest problem is that they think it's a get rich quick and do know work program, which it is certainly not. This is why 95% of the people in the room will fail. The pitch is hyped but they do provide all the resources and support you need if you are willing to put in the work. And definitely do your homework and make your own decision. Don't believe every Guru program but also don't believe all the Naysayers!
this past weekend i went to a grant cardone Free seminar. I told myself that i would not buy anything they are selling and I am simply going to observe and learn. However as i found myself passing on the real estate program esp (mainly because they claimed to offer you money for your first real estate deal) i found myself truly getting sold on the marketing program. Outside of all the bs and rara stuff that was getting everyone else, what really got my intrigue was when they started talking about 3rd party selling on amazon and if we went through the course the would set us up on getting started. I saw that as a way to help me get my foot in the door of something i am interested in. SO reluctantly i signed up for the 1200 course (the real estate course came with it) mainly for that shot of learning to market, sell and start 3rd party selling. Not gonna lie i feel every anxious about my decision and i cant truely explain why expect for the fact that i dont really like Grant and plus i feel like i allowed myself to get sold. The money isnt the issue i can pay for it easily and i can simply take off work cuz of my vacation time. Ig I'm just truely hoping that all of this is worth it
What did you wind up doing? My mom and I just went to a Grant Cardone seminar 2 weeks ago with the same offer ($1200 for both real estate and Amazon) but we just went with the real estate one because we had gone to the Amazon one a year and a half ago, hosted by this somewhat shady dude named Tim something (also a millionaire, older, has like 10 kids). Mom paid for the 1st course but we backed out after reading bad reviews specifically after they said they wanted $30,000. But when we went to the Grant Cardone seminar 2 weeks ago, guess who we saw marketing for the same Amazon program? That Tim guy. So I guess he’s best buds with Cardone & Cardone is endorsing him. The real estate one seemed a lot more legit, the guy hosting it seems really genuine and I’m saying that as a person who doesn’t trust people easily. So we’ve begun payment for the lowest tier course which is about $16,000. We’ve paid $5000 down and I was told to apply for credit cards to pay the rest which we almost have but my mom just read an article about some other real estate program with the same exact structure but different name that’s being sued & complained about for duping people so now we’re having 2nd thoughts. They also promised they would provide funding for our deals but the lady we were talking to had a supposed emergency and hasn’t gotten back to us since last week so idk. I mean, we at least have the online education resource but in the week that I was waiting to get access to that I just went on TH-cam & found so much valuable info for free so now I’m starting to feel like the course isn’t worth it for the knowledge but only the funding, but I’m not sure how their funding works because they haven’t gotten back to us yet. *sigh* Right now my mom just wants to give slow payments instead of everything at once so that I don’t have to max out my cards & especially with that article she just read, so that we don’t pay money & then get BS-ed. Sorry for the long post, I’m just getting my thoughts out and hoping someone else who may have gone through something similar may have something to say.
I decided to cancel it man. After giving it some thought i didnt think it would be the best thing to do. Tf he following week i ended up going to another free seminar with Than Merril and they offered a free workshop for $197 so i went with it instead and will be go8ng next week. Sorry you went with that option man i hope it all works out for you.
These guru programs all they are selling to you are neatly packaged info of whatever it is you're trying to learn, whether it's real estate, finances, fitness,etc. If you have the money to pay someone else to do the time, the research and all the guesswork/trial and error for you then do the guru programs.
1. The courses and advise is the opportunity given to everyone, it’s not fair to say these people they would not succeed through these programmes. 2. It’s not for you to decide if it’s worth it, and the free stuff on the internet is so basic and hypothetical that it’s of little relevance. 3. Your marketing yourself by telling people to share and save others from an opportunity they may actually excel in. 4. I’m a product of one of these courses and I’m so glad I never came across you before I went as being sceptical as I am I would have walked away!
there is only two reason why you should pay a lot of money for real estate education. reason one it is a fomal degree, such as the master in real estate form new York, it is a real degree to get real jobs. second reason you are rich. and are willing to pay either for a degree or to work with pros, like pay to meet lawyers and cps and contracters, to go over every thing. other wise it is just a waste of money since people are going to start small, with a house or doplex, I could see a 100 in books, or maybe a class in design one in construction. but main it buy low, fix sell high. and you should not have to pay a lot to learn that. a little is ok, but not a lot. the only way I would pay 30 k to lean this is if I was a millionaire, and I hired someone to work with me on ever step, for a huge project.
In the last 29 years, I have paid over $300K in seminars, but I have earned millions from the knowledge. Can you believe people pay $25k or more a year to get a degree so they can get a job they hate?
I think it's just with anything you learn in life. I can learn to workout and get in shape for free by just doing my research and watching videos, reading books,etc instead of paying for a personal trainer. Just like how you can pay a personal trainer to reach your goals, people can get results with a guru program but point is you can do it without paying someone a lot of money.
In turn however, you often go through the school of hard knocks, which costs you FAR MORE money in lost sales than you may have paid to begin with. Food for thought.
Winner of a video, I have been researching "nyu real estate development master's" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Yiyrianna Tonwen Theorem - (just google it ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my work buddy got great results with it.
Winner of a video, I have been researching "master brokers real estate" for a while now, and I think this has helped.

Ive heard some awesome things about it and my buddy got great success with it.
Well, this guy is on point, in fact the majority of people never make money with these programs, but that is the same as to say, if you notice in every field in life, take for instance a person who's majored in Business Administration, probably 80 per cent of these people never amount to more than a job, just like doctors, most attornyes do not have their own practice, in fact 60 per cent of attorneys do not practice in any field relating to law, ME BEING ONE OF THEM, that is like saying that a drug addict would have made conssessions to not be a drug addict in spite of attending rehab. But this guy on this video, who seems to be a great sales' person, seems to be feeding off what people who never find success in a coaching program say on line, that coaches never help you, that is a great strategy because he seems to be aligning with you, and after writing a book....BAM!!!....he is going to sell you his program...in his steps he forgot to mention THE BOOK before the free seminar. Every program has a book, then the free seminar and so on....he seems to be doing the same....a coach is not a wizard, a coach is not a guardian angel, he is there to hold you accountable, to make you ambarressed when you procrastinate, to tell you when you deviate from your goal, not to make you rich, would Tiger Woods be Tiger Woods if he would have said "I am not going to pay 50 million dolars to Sean Foley" his swing coach,"because coahes are just full of it, I can be the greatest golf player of all times without a coach" ....but one thing you must keep in mind, wealth comes inevitably if you have discipline, courage, and there are 5 elements to wealth..social, mental, physical, spiritual and inevitably financial wealth. And I do not know the name of this young unknown man, but Warren Buffett, you know the 2nd or 3rd richest man alive, has said many times, if you want to expedite your success find a mentor, and if you asked him, Warren, he would tell you to take your money do not invest it in college and find a reputable mentor and you have a 50 per cent more likely-hood to be very successful. Now if you are sceptical of that quote, yes, he said it in a speach he gave at UCLA, find it and you will see, I might be paraphrasing but he said it, if you know him, asked him yourself...you nenver know.
im glad i watched this videos i just went to a Free seminar and once i got there they asked for $2k for 3 days of training. and said exactly what you said.
Exactly what happen to me in the same seminar. They do offer a lot of information at a really face pace and then they said don’t worry once you pay $50,000 we will walk you through every deal. Awesome right. They should be ashamed.
Yes, you need to know where you are going, and HAVE the money to spend on coaching are the ones that will do well. If you are dead broke and close to homeless, spend some time going through free content instead of watching trash TV is a start.
I attended Trump U and received some great information. I took action on some of the tips, and I earned over $1.2 million from them. I think the people who said they thought it was a actually university where lying democrats who liked Trump until he ran as a republican. Don't let your politics keep you from reaching your financial goals.
WHOA! I just went to a seminar for ARMANDO MONTELONGO SEMINARS with flipping home real estate. (Based in Sam Antonio, TX) EVERYTHING this guy stated is what happened. Damn, and yeah I was pretty excited because I have always wanted to flip homes. 😔
yea I almost bought a 20k package from Ritch dad poor dad. my mom stepped in and saved my ass from those ppl. i ended up going with a 2k one from a different company that didn't use as much high pressure bs. I definitely didn't need it because I found your site later... now I'm going to call my mom.
+Think And grow rich swipe spelling...I do invest in myself. I'm just starting my empire. I may be young and nieve but I see though your bullying tactics. pathetic honestly.
I went to the Fortune Builders 3 day workshop (TH-cam video coming soon) and it's exactly how he presented it. I wouldn't recommend that shit to no one.
sandinyourshoes oh yeah I already bought it, that’s why it’s a lesson 😂 I was in a lot of pain and confusion, and the salesman hit all the right buttons
Stephen, I am very sorry about your pain. That is often what hurts us the most, be it physical or mental or emotional. I work for a realtor, and so I know the reality of investing. Stephen, if we all had the money to invest, then we would all do it, no? However, these gurus don't tell you where to get the money. Some may have "networks" or "investors with cash," but joining "the club" is expensive and has no guarantee of any type at all.
Thank you Brandon. Thank you so much for all your information and your help. You seem like you genuinely care about people and I just appreciate that so much. You are amazing and making such a big difference in people's lives and I am so grateful to have found you. Please keep up with all your hard work! =)
I can’t convince my mother in law not to invest in the real estate company ‘Re Mentors’. She is determined to make this work but their reviews are HORRIBLE. I’ve even went to one of their seminars with her to see what it was like and they literally said all the things you’ve mentioned in this video. Pushing people to sign up over and over again, it was really disturbing to sit through so I left out and waited for her in the lobby.
F THAT....just take a week vacation and read bigger pockets forums. I went to the "FREE" class 20 years ago...tom vu...i think...after they made their pitch for the 395 class, I got up and left..even though some dude tried to get me to stay
There s this diploma course available for £750 something i can afford.. But i have no previous experience and naturally I don't suit this job as I grew being blunt as I belong to medical field but recently I want to explore this field Just wondering whether to dip my feet and go.. Ir to just dive and swim
Thanks! I agree with what you are saying 3:35 - 3:47 AND is true! You got me as an instant subscriber (shut up and take my money! haha!). Good stuff man good stuff.
No. Don't pay it. All the basic information is available online for free. It is getting the money that is the biggest challenge. Can't get it? Too bad. You're out of business.
I know they're bs, but plenty of people go for the free box lunches & free gifts like $15 apple watch ripoffs. I'm guilty of this but the presentation leaves out a lot of common sense info, so I'm always surprised when I see people sign up
Only difference between these so-called gurus and megachurches is there's no gospel music. But they still want to fleece your pockets in the end. It's horrible.
They're almost impossible to find. No one is doing it for free, and few will wait for their money. See a licensed realtor who has experience. He is paid through the sale. Gurus are often frauds.
Fucking shit I just went to my first day of rich dads “ on “ investment course this whole fucking day was a woman using her life story as a sells pitch. I knew something smelt like a fishes ass.
Just wonderful, been searching for "top real estate programs" for a while now, and I think this has helped.

He is so on point I went to Fortune Builders got shook down for 5k didn't flip. One house. This guy speaks the truth!

Very true!!!! ... after about 4 different hotel conference-gather-all and lecture, I finally got it... the marketing thing.

Update?
These guru programs all they are selling to you are neatly packaged info of whatever it is you're trying to learn, whether it's real estate, finances, fitness,etc. If you have the money to pay someone else to do the time, the research and all the guesswork/trial and error for you then do the guru programs.

2. It’s not for you to decide if it’s worth it, and the free stuff on the internet is so basic and hypothetical that it’s of little relevance.

4. I’m a product of one of these courses and I’m so glad I never came across you before I went as being sceptical as I am I would have walked away!
I agree.
Ultimately up to the individual as to what they gain from what and how it is presented. Did the program set you up for success?
Which course did you take?
@@CharEst13 Yes it got me started and gave me the confidence to do it.
Love your book and Love your honest advice as always!
there is only two reason why you should pay a lot of money for real estate education.
reason one it is a fomal degree, such as the master in real estate form new York, it is a real degree to get real jobs.
second reason you are rich. and are willing to pay either for a degree or to work with pros, like pay to meet lawyers and cps and contracters, to go over every thing. other wise it is just a waste of money
since people are going to start small, with a house or doplex, I could see a 100 in books, or maybe a class in design one in construction. but main it buy low, fix sell high. and you should not have to pay a lot to learn that. a little is ok, but not a lot. the only way I would pay 30 k to lean this is if I was a millionaire, and I hired someone to work with me on ever step, for a huge project.

to Sean Foley" his swing coach,"because coahes are just full of it, I can be the greatest golf player of all times without a coach" ....but one thing you must keep in mind, wealth comes inevitably if you have discipline, courage, and there are 5 elements to wealth..social, mental, physical, spiritual and inevitably financial wealth. And I do not know the name of this young unknown man, but Warren Buffett, you know the 2nd or 3rd richest man alive, has said many times, if you want to expedite your success find a mentor, and if you asked him, Warren, he would tell you to take your money do not invest it in college and find a reputable mentor and you have a 50 per cent more likely-hood to be very successful. Now if you are sceptical of that quote, yes, he said it in a speach he gave at UCLA, find it and you will see, I might be paraphrasing but he said it, if you know him, asked him yourself...you nenver know.
Great video Brandon! I almost fell prey to this a couple years back. Thanks for posting this ! :)
im glad i watched this videos i just went to a Free seminar and once i got there they asked for $2k for 3 days of training. and said exactly what you said.
Scams.
Was it Real estate elevated? Supposedly it's $6000 originally but you get a discount for going to the free seminar ?
@@MsJanestout ya but the question you have to ask yourself is is it really a discounted price? It probably isn't even worth that.
One of my main filters is that if they don’t advertise the price of all the various training options before hand then it’s a no go for me.
Exactly what happen to me in the same seminar. They do offer a lot of information at a really face pace and then they said don’t worry once you pay $50,000 we will walk you through every deal. Awesome right. They should be ashamed.
Yes, you need to know where you are going, and HAVE the money to spend on coaching are the ones that will do well. If you are dead broke and close to homeless, spend some time going through free content instead of watching trash TV is a start.
You're describing Trump University and Flipping Formula.
I attended Trump U and received some great information. I took action on some of the tips, and I earned over $1.2 million from them. I think the people who said they thought it was a actually university where lying democrats who liked Trump until he ran as a republican. Don't let your politics keep you from reaching your financial goals.
This like grant cardone , meet Kevin , and graphed Stephen they just wanna finesse you
This was just a straight forward explanation. Thank you
Good advice, study all the free content and then seek out coaches.
WHOA! I just went to a seminar for ARMANDO MONTELONGO SEMINARS with flipping home real estate. (Based in Sam Antonio, TX) EVERYTHING this guy stated is what happened. Damn, and yeah I was pretty excited because I have always wanted to flip homes. 😔
Simply an outstanding informative clip....
I wish I came across this video before I spent a thousand dollars and three days on a Realestate workshop.
BiggerPockets. I like it. I wanna start from scratch. Where does somebody with no money start off?
Tim Jury how your Real Estate career coming along now? Any update?
yea I almost bought a 20k package from Ritch dad poor dad. my mom stepped in and saved my ass from those ppl. i ended up going with a 2k one from a different company that didn't use as much high pressure bs. I definitely didn't need it because I found your site later... now I'm going to call my mom.
+Think And grow rich swipe spelling...I do invest in myself. I'm just starting my empire. I may be young and nieve but I see though your bullying tactics. pathetic honestly.
And where are you now with your success or do you still rely on your mom to make your decisions?
Ty Smith , it's spelled " naïve."
Great information! Keep up the quality content!!!
I went to the Fortune Builders 3 day workshop (TH-cam video coming soon) and it's exactly how he presented it. I wouldn't recommend that shit to no one.
VERY GOOD POINTS, So many people (including me) fall in this TRAP
Rarely is it not a scam.
You can learn just about anything on real estate for free. Do not pay thousands to courses and seminar. Save it for down payment.
I've been so desperate as to "fall" for the guru training and learn a $7000 lesson. lol.
Skip it. It's a scam. If you have no money for investing, then you're out.
sandinyourshoes oh yeah I already bought it, that’s why it’s a lesson 😂 I was in a lot of pain and confusion, and the salesman hit all the right buttons
Stephen, I am very sorry about your pain. That is often what hurts us the most, be it physical or mental or emotional. I work for a realtor, and so I know the reality of investing. Stephen, if we all had the money to invest, then we would all do it, no? However, these gurus don't tell you where to get the money. Some may have "networks" or "investors with cash," but joining "the club" is expensive and has no guarantee of any type at all.
Thank you Brandon. Thank you so much for all your information and your help. You seem like you genuinely care about people and I just appreciate that so much. You are amazing and making such a big difference in people's lives and I am so grateful to have found you. Please keep up with all your hard work! =)
As always, great information.
I can’t convince my mother in law not to invest in the real estate company ‘Re Mentors’. She is determined to make this work but their reviews are HORRIBLE. I’ve even went to one of their seminars with her to see what it was like and they literally said all the things you’ve mentioned in this video. Pushing people to sign up over and over again, it was really disturbing to sit through so I left out and waited for her in the lobby.
F THAT....just take a week vacation and read bigger pockets forums. I went to the "FREE" class 20 years ago...tom vu...i think...after they made their pitch for the 395 class, I got up and left..even though some dude tried to get me to stay
There s this diploma course available for £750 something i can afford.. But i have no previous experience and naturally I don't suit this job as I grew being blunt as I belong to medical field but recently I want to explore this field
Just wondering whether to dip my feet and go.. Ir to just dive and swim
What if I do real estate courses at tafe?
Thanks! I agree with what you are saying 3:35 - 3:47 AND is true!
You got me as an instant subscriber (shut up and take my money! haha!).
Good stuff man good stuff.
i saw my mom yesterday punk... i call her everyday. DONT TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE! LMAO
I call mine everyday too💖
That lampshade in the background is driving me insane!! Not only is it on crooked but the pattern isn't straight either.
OMG I wasn't the only one. We are part of the elite those that notice this. It's a gift....and a curse
No. Don't pay it. All the basic information is available online for free. It is getting the money that is the biggest challenge. Can't get it? Too bad. You're out of business.
nothing change its still going on till this day, smh..
Good information
Thank u
Good info
Is Phil Pustejovsky with Freedom Menotor legitimate? I see lots of good reviews on him and not a whole lot of bad.
SOOOOO TRUEEEEE!!!
Lol man you said it..
Love the content
Love it! P.s....when can we buy the shirts???
What Brandon said :) We are working on it!
You set up your own guru trap.
Exactly.

I know they're bs, but plenty of people go for the free box lunches & free gifts like $15 apple watch ripoffs. I'm guilty of this but the presentation leaves out a lot of common sense info, so I'm always surprised when I see people sign up
100% true
Only difference between these so-called gurus and megachurches is there's no gospel music. But they still want to fleece your pockets in the end. It's horrible.
P.M. Just Don't
Looking
For a mentor
They're almost impossible to find. No one is doing it for free, and few will wait for their money. See a licensed realtor who has experience. He is paid through the sale. Gurus are often frauds.
Fucking shit I just went to my first day of rich dads “ on “ investment course this whole fucking day was a woman using her life story as a sells pitch. I knew something smelt like a fishes ass.
So odd seeing you without a beard hahaha still look good though.
Complete bullshit. The guru cannot even be bothered to show up to his own seminar. Instead you get his "associate." That alone is a sign to leave.
😍
Just wonderful, been searching for "top real estate programs" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Yiyrianna Tonwen Theorem - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some decent things about it and my colleague got great success with it.
Lol
