Is it Worth using a paid real estate coach?

Hello I am considering signing up with a Real estate coach and am not sure if it is worth it. I am a Real Estate Broker so I understand and have dealt with REO, short sales and other deals for my clients. However I have not taken the steps to build my own Real Estate Investing business. I am thinking about joining Lou Castillo at Investor riches. It is $7500 up front and the rest is taken out of future deals. Anyone had any experiences with him? Thank you for the feedback.

A paid coach is only as good as the foundation you have prepared. if you have not studied the basics of real estate,contracts,valuations,construction,renting,etc you will be wasting a lot time .If you have no basic knowledge,that you researched and studied on your own(widely available for free) you will not be able to evaluate your training and be susceptible to being under the spell of a guru. The result way too much money spent for little return. There is nothing new or secretive to uncover as
