Gurus are marketers not investors

With a lot of people forced to stay home, I would strongly recommend those who look to take an online course to do their due diligence on it.

Secondly, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist or more than 30 minutes through scanning through this forum to understand that most gurus are marketing professionals. They are great at selling but most are not investors.

This is not to say this is industry wide, but just remember this: if this person is making so much money doing what they are teaching why are they out their not doing it versus teaching me?

I have heard horror stories of people spending tens of thousands of dollars on some guru system which most likely is a scam - why do I say that? With the advent of the internet there are no hidden secrets, all businesses are copycat businesses and will follow what others are doing successful. You do not need to spend tens of thousands to get their.
