Guru training seminar success!!

[Mark Higgins]

If the subject caught your eye, i should go into marketing.

My BP question for everyone: 

Who has attended a seminar/ training/ mentor program for under $1500 that they didn't regret.  In other words; it was worth every cent and "Paid for itself"

If you have a profile picture and more than 2 posts, thats cool.  if you are active on BP, I.E pro member i would love to hear from you!

And to save some time on redundant posts, we all know BP is the best place to learn about real estate investing without all of the hype

I do exclusively real estate now.  Quit my day job long ago...lol.  I never spent big bucks on seminars, ever.  I learned a lot from guys I knew at work, or from an investor friend who sold me my first rent house.   After I had about 20 houses I asked each of my "mentors" where they got their start.  Turns out they both had taken a $130 course from Charlton Sheets that they saw on late night TV. 

So...I bought the same course...my way of saying THANKS to Mr. Sheets.  I figured most of what I'd learn, I already knew...but If I gained one tidbit that helped me, it would be worth more than the cost of the course...because I would USE it...not file it away somewhere, like most of the people who bought the course.  I was right.  Mr. Sheets' course is full of useful knowledge. 

I now do multi-family only.  Real Estate has changed my life.  I sometimes attend seminars, just to stay up-to-date with new technology, new ideas, etc.  But I never spend thousands of dollars.  And I've helped many people get into RE investing.  I've never charged them a dime.  Now they tell me *I* should teach a course....LOL.  Maybe one day.  But probably not.  I've got the best job in the world.  And I get up everyday and pinch myself just to make sure I'm not dreaming.

Best of luck!  My best advice...

"Don't spend your seed money on a course telling you how to spend your money.  Make some mistakes.  Learn from them.  Ask questions.  Grow from the experience."
