@Mathew Mazoch
Seems like you've received a variety of responses about Freedom Founders. I'm curious as to whether you made up your mind yet about it or still thinking?
From a personal experience, I can tell you that I met David Phelps almost a year ago when I was invited to attend as a part of one of the Trusted Advisors' groups.
What striked almost immediately was the atmosphere in the room: everyone was super friendly, willing to help one another, people were actually smiling, willingly sharing their challenges, and making suggestions to one another as to how to overcome such challenges.
It was quite obvious that the folks in the room were driven, motivated and passionate people. They were all passionate about achieving their financial freedom.
And as @James M Rachor pointed out above, the "Freedom Number" is "...This is Not just a number, its real and usable today to pay bills...and preserve principle."
You should see the expressions on people faces when they are proudly congratulated for achieving their number. A lot of sweat equity and hard work goes into achieving this number. David Phelps and his team put a ton of work to offer as many resources as possible make this path achievable. David also personally handpicks the advisors for his group and ensures that they meet his high standards and offer quality investment products to his community.
I don't remember who said, "I am not rich enough to buy cheap things", but it is absolutely true with this mastermind as well. If you want quality AND willing to put it time and money and work on achieving your financial independence through a proven, well-thought out method that has already benefited many others, then give it a try.
This program is certainly not for everyone. If someone believes that they will pay to get things on a silver platter, then this program is not for them. You do have to put in the time to learn the fundamentals and understand how to apply the proven methods to your personal situation. What you do get, is amazing mentors and a community of incredible and supportive people that want to see you succeed and achieve your freedom number sooner rather than later.
I can probably tell some more, but I will stop to avoid a lengthy post.
