People that go to these seminars thinking someone is going to hand them something for free with no ulterior motive needs to rethink that rationale.Now I do help people understand commercial retail investing BUT they have money and I make a buyer brokers fee for the property they are purchasing which can be in the six figures in fees for a deal.I have agents wanting to join my company all the time.

He also runs an apartment syndicating business, and wants investors, so clearly he has no ulterior motive for saying apartments are the greatest thing ever and the stock market and literally any other investment is awful.

But don't assume these "rules" weren't created with ulterior motives.

Some people who don’t have hobbies don’t really “get” the whole car thing and that’s understandable but attributing some type of ulterior motive to my potential purchase is kind of strange.As far as my income goes, I realize it’s a bit lower than many of yours on here and as I mentioned I’m going to be moving into practice ownership within the next 24 months.

Please look through my nearly 800 posts on this site and you will see that I have no ulterior motive other than trying to help fellow investors and gain knowledge.
