Mike; perhaps I misinterpreted what you said, but it's not because I attempted to read your mind. It's because I attempted to glean the meaning behind these words:

"I know some maybe even most will think I am stupid for thinking this way but heres my thought . I want to provide VALUE in my services "

If you think "maybe even most" people on this forum will think you're stupid for wanting to "provide VALUE", it seems to me that implies your position might be rare, or at least unusual in this forum. If you agree with my (common, I think) view that taking other people's money without providing value is immoral, that would make you a rare voice of morality.

I don't see how that interpretation is unfair, but if it is, I'm sorry.

I agree with you that desperate, "get rich quick" thinking can hurt someone who's never made much money, since they will likey self-sabatage, not handle adversity well, and give up if the money doesn't come as quickly or easily as they'd expected. But if one is inspired by unreasonable goals, takes unreasonably massive action to achieve them, and decides to become "unstoppable", I see no harm in reaching for outrageously big and fast results.

For someone who has lots of confidence, a workable, scalable plan that is congruent with their values and self-image, and is willing to course correct when meeting with the unexpected, it can't be denied that "getting rich quick" is possible, since people have done it. I'm not saying it's ever going to be the norm, but such successes naturally inspire people.

I think you made a comment earlier about unreasonable claims that will be stopped by the new FCC rules. I support their intent to stop misleading advertisers, but if I understand the rules correctly, they are very bad indeed. Is it true that they forbid testimonials with income claims unless you can prove your "average" customer made as much? If so it's absurd, unfair and a gross infringement on free speech.

First of all, no merchant could even know what each customer made, so making any claims, or allowing them to be made in a testimonial will be a terrible liability.

Second: Included in the average are: a large percent that never unwrapped the course; a large percent that unwrapped it, and then shelved it; a smaller percent that read a few pages; an even smaller percent that read the whole thing but never acted; a tiny percent that actually took action; and the miniscule percent that took sustained action and didn't give up before they actually made a profit. It's ridiculous that only the average can be heard from, since only a tiny percent ever give the method a meaningful test.

People need inspiration. Average results don't inspire. Nor does the prospect of "building a solid business", unless that means, a business that thrives, grows quickly, and provides you with an extraordinary lifestyle.

If I'm going to buy the blueprint for a business model, I'll buy it based on the fact that action takers can create great results, not the fact that the majority (as always) did nothing. Nor am I going to buy plans to "build a solid business", unless that solid business can make me much richer much faster, with much less drudgery than a job would. Fortunately, that can be done, but the FCC doesn't want us to talk about it.

As for the op; If he's truly produced a lot of success over the last several years with his real estate investing, and he wants to teach others to do the same, getting 25 takers in a month might not be a "get rich quick" scheme for him. From his claims, he can make more than $75k on a single deal, and is already rich anyway. (It's easier for rich people to "get rich quick";-)

In fact it seems possible that he's not really trying to "build a business" on the internet. Perhaps he's just looking at the internet as a way of advertising to find 25 people that want to learn to do what he does. I don't get the impression he sees IM as his new career. I think his main thing is doing deals, and he wants the satisfaction of teaching other people to do it too.

It does seem odd though, as I pointed out already, that he claims when he meets 5 people, 1-2 of them want to take his coaching program, and yet he wants to go to all the work of marketing the program online just to get 25 takers. All he really needs to do is go out and meet 65-130 people in the next 30 days, and he'll have his spots filled. That should be doable.
