Yancey Real Estate Workshop: Is $40,000 for Mentorship and Training worth it

This past weekend my friend invited me as his guest to the Yancey Events, Real Estate Workshop. He paid a couple of thousand dollars to attend and a free guest was able to join so he was generous enough to call me.

This workshop was sponsored by Scott Yancey of the show Flipping Vegas. It was taught my a gentleman by the name of Brock Madsen. Mr. Madsen is an excellent presenter and really knows how to engage his audience. He is extremely knowledgeable about the investors mindset and real estate.

As there was tons of good information being taught, there was also the sales pitch to buy a Diamond membership for $40,000 which includes more classes, private one on one days with a Advanced Mentor, admission to seminars in Vegas etc.

I wanted to know if anyone on bigger pockets have participated an anything like this, what was your experience, and was it worth $40,000?

Cant wait to hear some feedback,

Thanks,

Jason

@Jason Arnold , IMO, I believe that if you have 40k to spend, you should invest it in real property. If it's not enough to do something by yourself, try a joint venture w/ a trusted partner. If you haven't done so yet, try listening to some of the podcasts. @Joshua Dorkin & @Brandon Turner ask every guest how they got started. If you invest your 40k in real property, hopefully you can come out of your first deal w/ cash in hand. You will certainly be MUCH wiser. Just my thoughts. Hope whatever you do works out for you.
