Does this look familiar (hint hint) gurus review

I am sure, many have heard of the pastor who created essentially a fake cryptocurrency and

admitted to stealing peoples money. (Link below)

This had me thinking of the “great guru blueprint“

1. Come from a family of thieves or have a former criminal record yourself.

2. Find a group of uneducated, unsuccessful people.

3. Create a community about how you will change their life or lifestyle.

As someone once told me:

in absence of a product, an idea will usually be sold; when the idea is lacking, a lifestyle is pushed.

When they don’t have the lifestyle, they often focus on a ‘message’. When there isn’t much of a message, the fallback is traditional values or leveraging a religious angle.

4. Push the product but never practice what you preach.

5. Make sure people know you can do this with no money

6. Make sure you over inflate how much they can make every year and make sure it’s a round number like $100k or $250k

7. If you don’t sign up now- you will 💯 % miss the boat on this opportunity

Bonus points:

- blame the person for not implementing your strategy

- blame others when things go bad.

- it’s a course you paid for so there is no recourse when you eventually fail miserably.
