One final idea, have an episode titled "Getting Rich in Detroit".

Join local real estate investment clubs, attend seminars, or engage in online forums to stay updated on the latest trends and strategies.Remember, real estate investing is not a get-rich-quick scheme.

He follows a scripted and manipulative sales process to sell you on the idea of getting rich.

And it's a sales pitch that's connecting saying "blame the rich".

Prices are higher and cash flow is much less, but you get rich with appreciation.The opposite is generally true with high cash flow.

Every 5 years there will be a legitimate strategy that gets promoted as the newest "Get rich tomorrow" BS that gets overhyped by the sharks.
