I attended their 3 day class for $200, and I learned so much information about investing in real estate, to credit repair, and financing and all that, but i couldn't afford their advanced training classes for a ridiculous 10K~50k!!

You are in the Philadelphia area, so I suggest you start by checking out DIG at http://digonline.org/ - membership is around $150 (they gave a spin the wheel offer at the main meeting that can give you a nice discount off of that but you then must sign up at that meeting), and every year they offer paid training (usually four sessions) for roughly $80 per session (member price); so less than $500 for training specific to the local area.

Charles is half right, I'd not spend thousands ( ok I did take Ward Hannigans Foreclosure AND Trust trainings ) on some schuckster who is not doing deals....
