Hello , I have to say my experience for the last few months in trying to get involved in RI has made me bitter towards anyone who is a so called “mentor” , I am completely convinced that “mentors” make money by charging people to learn some basic stuff and great speeches for motivation not by doing RI , now don’t get me wrong this is America if this is how you guys make money fine , but it is completely unethical to do it by misrepresenting your self has a working RI , and please understand I came in to this process with a completely open mind (you can check my other posts) but what I have seen in REI clubs and an this boards has made me sick to my stomach.
Let me give you new guys some advice , if you every meet anyone who wants to so called “help you learn the business” be ready for a sales pitch , understand that they will say and promise anything to get your money , once they have you they will have 101 and excuse why some of the things they promise did not work , do not I repeat DO NOT ALLOW YOUR SELF TO BE TAKEN BY THIS CON MAN, yes I have been taken , I let my guard down and know I have a “mentor” everything he has said to me I could have found an this boards , but you see there one problem with my “mentors” latest cash cow , I get even not mad, I will make sure everyone knows what a fraud he is , I will attend every meeting that he schedules and make sure everyone knows what he is all about, but that’s my problem for you new guys I have one bit of advice , next time someone tries to sell you on a “coaching program” and tells you how anyone can make lots of cash in RI without credit or money, let them talk once they get to there price simple say this " Well I don’t have the cash right know nor room on my CC , but I will make you a counter offer, if your so sure that I can make deals in RI how about I cut you in 50% on my first 10 deals?" then sit back and watch the Rats run for there holes , the one that stands there and says “ok” that’s your “Mentor”
And before some Guru says I did not give it a chance or that I am just negative person, let me tell ya for the last 2 months I have been busting my ASS trying to get a wholesale deal I have made about 30 offers , and still trying , I could have made some deals but there’s one small problem you need cash in hand to make them happen and my so called " mentor " who was so sure he would find cash buyers for me in 21 days , well lets just say he is not so confident anymore.
I am not saying it is not possible to make a living in the RI world , but it is not easy , it takes work a sold plan , some cash and some credit , I just hate to see con man destroying the dreams of good intention people , who just want to make a living for there family’s , new guys don’t be so eager to jump just because some “mentor” is promising the world , always remember to must of this guys , YOU ARE THE BUSSINESS, and there business is to RIP YOU OFF!
My challenge to anyone here that calls him self a “Mentor” who is just trying to help people because it makes them feel good (what a bunch of BS) is simple show me how to make deals with no cash and no credit, I will invest 50 hours a week , and work to the point of starvation has your pupil , I will follow your word to the letter, I will give you 50% off all profits for a year! all you have to do is prove it ! lol fat chance
sorry for spelling and grammar I was righting this on my crack berry
