Yes taking a paragraph out of a book without context is taking something out of context. 


Posting an entire facebook post with the info associated with it is not taking something out of context.

I have had no bad experiences with Robert, in fact, his first book helped me. However, his teachings have often done more harm than good in other aspects and I do not blindly agree with everything he says. So many think buying a house is bad because he said it is not an asset when buying a house is the biggest source of wealth for people in the United States. My personal houses helped me buy my first rental and made me hundreds of thousands tax-free. 

If you remember right you came at me on my post and then pointed me to this post. It seems really weird how hard you are fighting for Robert and have avoided my questions. 

1. Did he encourage people to use credit card debt to buy his high-priced coaching at the seminar you belonged to?

What business was that? HiPages bio says :

"hipages was founded in 2004 by David Vitek and Roby Sharon-Zipser. Prior to hipages, Vitek worked as an electrical engineer at IBM and Sharon-Zipser worked for PWC, then later started his own business advisory firm."

This seems extremely misleading to say a Kiyosaki seminar led to your company's IPO. I mean you stopped working there more than 2 years ago and when you left you were a sales director according to your LinkedIn profile. How exactly is you attending a seminar in 2000 responsible for a company you don't work for going public?

@Mike D'Arrigo Yes, he told me he was investing in C class neighborhoods many years ago, and I told him that was highly risky.  I knew first hand that it was risky because we lost our @$$'s in Indy doing that in 2009. I found myself in the same situation where we trusted a local team to steer us in the right direction but they, too, ended up selling us D-class properties in high crime areas. It was hard for an out-of-towner to know because the homes look good in pictures and on paper, and aren't that far from better neighborhoods. I'm not saying Clayton didn't know. I'm just saying when it happened to me, I didn't know. Today it's easier to get information on neighborhoods, but back then it wasn't so readily available. 

 He also had the same thing happen in Jacksonville. It was not just Indy. I just posted an article that goes over everything he claims and why none of it holds water based on other stuff he has claimed on his website. I won't post a link here but search investfourmore and Clayton Morris. 

He says on his website he didn't know there were problems because when he went to look at properties the contractors put blinds up and said the houses were rented. 

He says his own mom lost 10k and had to take a loan out to pay it. 

He was on BP posting in 2016 addressing issues but claims now he knew nothing about it until 2018. He kept referring people until may of 2018.

@James Wise do my comments show up on his community page? I posted one to the same picture you showed with them in the van. I am wondering if he blocked me. 

 Those must have been deleted as I don't see any comments from you on that photo.

P.S.

Mark don't sue me for using a picture of your Lambo.

 hahaha, I will only sue for 6 million. I can still see my posts on his page so it looks lock I can still post. I wondered why no one responded or liked my comments. So sad.

I took the opportunity to explain what a fraud this douchebag is. We had a good laugh. I told HR the next time he calls to just send the call over to me. And if you want to talk to me directly Clayton, my extension is 318.

WOW.. that's something..  and really to me personally quite petty..
