we buy homesThis is Part One in a Three Part series

The System



Have you ever seen one of those signs and wondered?

"We Pay CASH for Homes!"

or the latest incarnation...


"Real Estate Investor Apprentice Wanted"

Wonder how all these people could pay cash for all those homes?

Wonder why the same looking signs have popped up everywhere?

Wonder why if they have so much money, they can't afford better signs or advertising?

Wonder why if they are seeking an Apprentice - why are they driving a beat up Pinto?

I have too.

So a little over a year ago I paid good money to go to this big Real Estate shin dig in Moscone Center. It was put together by the Learning Annex. It had keynote speakers like Anthony Robbins, Robert Kiyosaki, and even The Donald.
I certainly wanted to "Learn" and why not learn from guys like that?

For three days, for twelve hours a day, I attended "class" after "class". If I remember right there were over 80 different "classes" offered. Not by the Keynote guys above, but by True Professional Real Estate Investors. These people were some of the most successful people on the planet. They had spent the early years of their life learning how to strike it rich with real estate and now wanted to give something back.


I know they were truly successful because of the expensive silk suits they wore. And then I couldn't help but notice their flashy watches. Oh and the way they talked about their last vacation. And then to verify what I already knew, they also told me they were (extremely wealthy). Each and every one of them did.

Amazingly, they were all willing to share vital information, the very same information it took them years of hard work to learn, with anyone!


Investor Seeks Apprentice Almost.

Just as long as you were one of the first 500 people to make their way to the back table and give their wonderful helpers a credit card.

Don't think of the $1,800 charge as a high price to pay for 12 CDs and a booklet. It's an investment in your future!

They say, "You get what you pay for..."  which tells me you must get an incredible  amount for one of these systems.

Time and time again, in each and every "class", with the very same speech pattern, the rush to the back was on. People of all walks of life were suddenly running for their financial lives.
Not for the door (as I might have hoped) but for the back table!
These good people would literally inundate the 20 or so wonderful helpers.


"NO... Take my Platinum Card first, I was here first!"

At times it reminded me of glorious holiday times past.
Cabbage Patch Kids, Tickle Me Elmo, and Beanie Babies have nothing on this spectacle.

Investor seeks apprentice

Mike, I paid for the expo that took place last weekend in Ft. Lauderdale.  I went on Friday to the "pre-conference freebie" and saw what it was all about and did not return on Saturday or Sunday.  It was really disgusting.  Even on Friday I came across people who had gotten free tickets for the weekend.  That proved to me that it was all about filling the place up.  Everyone with a wallet was welcome.  Sickening.
