Joe,
I am a full time RE investor. I am successful, not mega-bucks rich, but comfortable. But I have worked very hard the past 3 years to get here. Now, as far as Guru’s, either website or Latenight TV, selling their courses and seminars, yes, they are in it for the money. But isn’t that what business is all about. Making a profit on your hard work. Now, next time you see Carleton Sheets on TV look at the fine print on the testimonials, “Results are not Typical, your income could be higher or lower”…or something of that nature.
You see, your success is up to you. What will you do with the information you purchase? Some don’t even read it, some read it and do nothing and others try once or twice and get shot down and never dust themselves off and get right back at it.
So, it is up to you not some stats on the ratios of “winners to losers”. When you look in your mirror what do you see…I would hope you see a winner.
Now, if I was into advice, I would say read up on everything you can get your hands on and then put a deal togethor. You can find a variety of books in the library or on Amazon.com. But I can assure you that any courses offered here are very good. JP only sells what works. You won’t find any “junk” here. Pick your RE niche and study up. You might even consider the upcoming convention.
The best of RE success to you in 2002.
-John
