    I think he lost some businesses early on - not sure if bankrupt or not.

    But you will find many of the rich have been bankrupt at some point - because they take risks (some of em) (others because it was a way to deliberately avoid their responsibilities).

    I have not been myself but this is what I heard:-
    Free seminar sells the workshop that costs a couple of grand.
    Workshop sells the mentoring program for $35k to $60k.
    People not impressed.

    Hi,
    I pad the $900 or similar for the 3 day course... learnt a bit about property calculations but most of it was brain washing into fooling you into singing up for a mentorship... which we did at 35K... it was meant to be for 2 but they let us sign up as a larger group (thought we were winning)..
    Did the tour in NZ where they guy who made all the promises in Perth had a mystery illness and was not available.... they gave some more useful information but the promise of a property team and deals is all wrong... probably could have learnt all the items on YouTube... they have also stopped responding to us even though it was a life time support package... we have bought 0 property in NZ and are getting no response from our contacts in NZ... its a sham, would not recommend the legacy training or proceeding with any of it... I don't know how the presenters like Pip sleep at night!

    35k??? how-lee-sheet....

    no wonder he's a rich dad......I know others rave and rant about RDPD though personally I've always found him to be boring mixed in with some common sense, some mindset stuff stolen from the real greats and a lot of hot air and nonsense .


    In all honesty.. all it takes is around $150-$200 max in books plus networking on this forum....

    Yer i wish i looked here first...

    The worst part is they encouraged using credit cards to pay for it so some people there would be in big financial trouble.....

    If you can get past them and the money it cost, this is the best place to be mate. Start afresh.

    Just buy the books.

    Save 35k

    Buy you wife a 35k necklace. Buy your husband a 35k set of golf clubs or road bike.

    Actually I do not want a set of golf clubs or a road bike.

    I want a deposit for my next investment property.

    Or a donation to King Eddie Hospital.

    No matter what you do - it is 35k better spent.

    Everyone has a different approach . If it were me giving advice to my son, I would say 1. buy some of the recommended books, 2, Read posts and threads on this forum that interest you, 3. As your knowledge grows ask questions on the forum,build contacts, attend the meet ups. It will not take you long to gain traction and build a plan for yourself in a good direction.

    I think that your mind has probably taken a hit (understandably) due to your experience with that course. Try your best to overcome it mindset wise and start fresh mate. I know its easier said than done but I believe its quite important to do so. So many people experience a **** situation and then that's it for them. It wrecks so many opportunities moving forward because they can't get past it mentally. Whatever you do, don't let that be you mate.

    Good luck

    Can you try a charge back on the credit cards? Ask the card issuer.
    I'd argue that the good or service was not received. In this case, the service.

    It is probably too late now, but worth a try.

    I recall a did a course about 20 years ago which cost $5,500 with Roy McDonald being the spriuker. It was a 3 day course on a farm and had a cult like atmosphere.

    The information was so basic that I asked for my money back, under there advertised 14 day money back guarantee. They resisted, but I got it back eventually. I had to enlist the help of the dept of fair trading who put pressure on them.

    From a legal point of view it may not be too late to do something if the company dealt with hasn't met all the terms of the agreement with you. They may have breached the contract and could be sued to recover the money. However the company may now be just an empty shell with no assets.
