Don Lapre R.I.P.

I just wanted to take a minute to share a story about a guru, Don Lapre. As many know by now, he committed suicide the other day so he did not have to stand trial for fraud.

With that said, he is the ONLY late night course I ever bought, and I bought it when I was about 19 yrs old. I spent 37 bucks on it, took one idea and a bunch of hard work, and made 600! Obviously it was not life changing, LOL! However, the course did do what it promised, it made me money fast!

I do not know the details of what he got in trouble for, but I felt the need to share at least one testimonial for the guy.

Did anyone else ever see his course? :mrgreen:

Unfortunate and just ONE of the reasons why I have no interest in ever getting into the Guru Business. It seems you're ultimately responsible for people's failures.
