Chicago Investment Club Leaders - Feedback needed
So I have been going around and attending many different networking and REI Clubs in the Chicago area. Some I have found useful, others I wouldn't call a club but more an infomercial for the guru pitching a product. Some I would caution you to put your wallet into a safety deposit box before attending.
There is one, I have yet to attend, but I wanted to ask for feedback here. I have asked everyone about all clubs. There is one called the "Chicago Wealth Club". They are marketed, I think, by a guy from Texas, but run by two local guys.
Has anyone attended this group?
I have met multiple people that claim the two guys running it, have a history of bad deals and still owe them money from as recent as a bad deal 2-3 years ago, to one guy saying he is still owed money from them from a deal done about a "decade ago" (his words). I don't want to miss out on a good opportunity if it is just sour grapes.
Has anyone else been left holding the bag by Robert Bock or GD Chaplin that run this group? I want to see if it is worth going or yet another person that just started their own club so they can find a new audience of people as they aren't allowed at other groups due to past dealings.

Thanks for the info. I have bumped into the folks you mention at some networking events, but that's the extent of my interaction. I will say in those limited interactions something felt a bit "off," for what it's worth.
