Chris Reeves nice to chat again :-) while I think you are wise to think about motives Frank doesn't strike me as so self focused. Some of your reasons are probably right, I still think he is an honest person trying to do some good. He says there are 44k parks in the US right? He owns only 170 of them. Less than 1%? Or did I get anything wrong? While he might have used techniques to put people at ease its not necessarily bad, might just be intuitive and not mentioning media I don't see it as necessary evil, why create panic? Media often don't show up and we had a full choice of not appear or interview. So there's no harm and no pushing you to the wall. You had many points and it's great that you expressed it all do you really think all these ulterior motives are true? I feel like his teachings are honest. I've talked to few people who realized this business is not for them. He is not painting everything in pink colors. What alternate motive can he have for giving free advice, deal analysis, coaching and ALL the documents needed in the business? I have looked at the reference library and am just in awe at the amount of information he gives us!
