This is worth ten times the 25K admission to Fortune Builders IMHO.

Rocky-Back when I was in law school, the Florida Bar sent a guy to explain the admission process.

Guess I can't win them all.I'm not sure where the law stands on recorded conversations.In california, recorded conversations without the consent of all parties are illegal or not admissable as evidence.

The meetings themselves usually feel like commercials to me but as others have said, the networking is worth the price of admission.

By your own admission, you have nobody who can verify anything they're saying.

No matter what your lease says, you have clearly (even by your own admission) allowed the "master tenant" (the one you have an agreement with) to sublet her unit, and in fact you state that she has been doing it for years.

The only thing I could think of is that they could refuse to issue you a card unless you get your photo taken, and then subsequently refuse to allow you admittance to any common areas (i.e. pool, club house, etc) where the cards are required for admission.

Nope, I want to build a solid business based on repeatable systems and processes that allows me to make a lot of money while doing very little work and causing me very little frustration.You admit that your way causes you a life that's "full of frustration"...As long as the OP understands that my way is meant to reduce frustration and your way creates it (by your own admission), it's completely up to him which way to go.People have every right to bang their heads against the wall if they want to.

Our markets are running on foreign investments by Bernanke's own admission in the last congressional oversight committee.

How about this:If you register for this event and pay your admission fee, get to the event, and any one of the number of speakers tries to pitch you any product or service at the back of the room during their presentation, I will personally write you a check for your adimmission refund.
