(high five) I work from home in the Tech industry as a software Product Manager. 

Financial Freedom Network I laughed at -- after reading the agreement, no comparable value for that monthly price -- 3 or so years ago, if value has changed now, my time-based disclaimer is as aforementioned -- and Legrand would do well to disconnect FFN from his name, as I believe FFN is now out-sourced, whatever.I empathize with you , Joe and the other responders, but when I read Legrand’s, and most of the other guru’s, contracts prior to trying a teaser product, it clearly stated in the agreement that if customer did not want the upgrade service for which the teaser/free product, free video, whatever, was being given away, then customer must cancel within the stated period of time, which almost always range from 30 to 90 days [60 days is becoming more common, as more folks forget to cancel]So long as terms to cancel are clearly stated prior to contracting, I don’t find it unethical, -- and real estate gurus have merely adapted a teaser or rebate marketing technique used in most every industry -- recently even Chrysler cars [try our minivan for 60 days!

In our trade, I would not expect any owner or GC to get this correct since our industry is extremely specialized.

Say you got a neighborhood in suburban Georgia with a certain type of industry in the area, well, okay, cool, but you're gonna have a 24-year old recent Berkley graduate still living with their parents to manage the property!

I wish I had known this was possible 20 years ago, but learned of it when I joined the industry 11 years ago. 

There are ways for the smart, savoy, and willing to educate themselves fast, folks who want to build wealth in real estate to do it now and rather quickly as compared to most other industries.
