#1 The writer doesn't mention how the affordable seminar pushed attendees to use credit cards to pay an extra $5 to $20 grand for more instruction. Little Hands is a phony crook. Rantburg posting this crap makes me start wondering about its credibility.

#2 I don't mind reading what whatever cheerleaders are posting, and it does give the opportunity for the Rantburg community to argue a point, which you did, thank you.

#5 Ditto swksvolFF.

One of the reasons I peruse the 'burg is that knowledgeable commenters are around to apply the appropriate level of skepticism without an immediate recourse to name calling.

It's good to see both sides and think for oneself.

#7 The author makes a good point. Without questiion, the graduates of TRChump U got scammed. They just need to harness that valuable hands on experience to cultivate their own rackets. And you have to admit the whole Bait and Switch thing has been veddy veddy good for The Donald.

#8 these type of seminars still go on, although less than a decade ago and with new players

the trick to getting a good evaluation from the student is to give him the evaluation form after a particularly up session

if they gave evaluations a year after the seminar, it would be a different story

#10 @#2: Not a cheerleader, but I understand how these "seminars" work.

Like all self-improvement or career advancement "Ra-Ra's," there will be some who find the subject matter and presentation useful and others who do not. A lot depends upon the anticipated NPV of the seminar which may or may not incorporate the necessary behavior modifications facilitating the successful outcome for the kool-aid drinker sub-set.

There are basic skills that are required for Real Estate investing (not the least of which would be being able to sell your Mother's teeth.), and these things cannot always be taught.

I used to lead training seminars, and was astounded to have a woman attend (2) of the same module yet complained about her first attendance that I was going to fast and the next too slow. My pace did not change...

#11 Dear valued friend, I know this may come as huuuge surprise to you, but I trust you to join in a venture with me. It will be wonderful. My name is Prince Donald, from the land of Winners, I desire to move 20 M US votes and deposit them at the Republican convention. I hire only the best people for this endeavor, believe me. That is why you were recommended to me to help...
Boner fooled me once with the same scam, Prince Donald ain't gonna get me on the rebound.

#13 Wasn't getting on ya BU5562 or anyone else, my point was that to not post differing opinions is a credibility issue, and also robs us of a chance for discussion.

In a way, I expect cheerleading from people who are knowledgeable and passionate about a subject.

#15 It is funny to read that as a subtitle to that South Africa sign language guy.

#16 Oh apparently an exorcism there at #14.5

Just a thought, or observation, whatever. Bennie won Kansas, and I hate Fraggles.

Isn't forgiven student debt for people who went to university and could not find a well paying job afterwards in essence a refund on a poor education?

As a business owner, the nice thing about credit cards is that I get paid no matter what the finances of the customer is or becomes.
