I cannot believe that there is someone out there who just doesn't see people as $$ signs and truly wants to help them move towards a better more wealth filled life. I can see that you have christian morals and that you are not afraid to act upon them. Amen! I noticed that some places in your manifesto gives the impression that once you purchase the program, you will be left on you own to wander the vast fields of real estate investment - a punishment - lets say for not having the money to pay for mentorship. I also noticed that in the first draft you talked about the mentorship program costing $4,000 but the second version uses $9,000. Is this a mistake? Because not many people can afford that kind of money but at the same time, that does not mean they are not enthused enough to want to learn. I agree with many of the comments that you talk of encouraging everyone to become wiser in their choices amongst the "noise" however, just when you think I can't take anymore just tell me how much your course cost - they are shocked at $3,000. Why does it have to cost so much? Surely, with good content and intent, if you give as you state, that you will make oodles of money through word of mouth - the biggest and best marketing technique out there! I have purchased the course and was pleasantly surprised at the price I paid. Much lower than the $3,000. I originally thought. I must say, that it is a great marketing ploy as I really, really had to want the course to hit that button!! I have so much material to read and so many videos to watch, that it is difficult to know where to start. Any advice? Jannett Hi Brad,

I think that we would all agree that we are living in times that are pretty well unprecendented as far as economic trends are concerned. No doubt about it when there are so many homes that are going into forclosure and so many people that have lost their jobs it is a rather scary time on one hand yet on the other, a time of unparalled opportunity. From what I have read, some of the wealthiest people that the world has ever know gained much of their wealth in times of economic depression. I understand that this is the case with Dale Carnegi, John Rockefeller and others. The thing that is so crucial is knowing what you are doing! I believe that is where the Shock and Awe doctrine and Six Figure Syndication come into play. I think that having the opportunity to learn to invest without 1. using your own money or credit . 2 to be able to build your own team of sellers buyers and money sources etc. is a great advantage. 3. Also, the ability to tie into the team the Brad already has in place in of inestemable value. 4 Also, the ability to set things up so that we can do deals virtually by means of phone, internet and fax is a great feature that I am anxious to learn to accomplish. Well, Brad I want to say thanks for what you have set up here for us. I just want to apply everything you have set up for us and be able to really participate in deals for not only my personal and family sake but I want to be able through this training be able to help people and are country that really need the help. Thanks again, Brad Ken Brad,

I must admit it makes me concerned about my personal future and the possibility of losing everything I have worked so hard for over the last 30+ years. Being in the construction industry, my job has already felt the effects of this economy with a decrease in hours worked per week, which affects my ability to pay my bills. I have been trying to do real estate investing for 3 years now, with real effort over the last year,taking many training programs and mentorships, costing over $20,000 to date, with no income produced yet. Obviously, I am doing something wrong. If even a small part of your report comes true, many of us are in for bad times and I know I have to do something to change my approach and get more security and income through real estate deals.I hope your course gives me the guidance I have been looking for. The information in your report was very direct and to the point and gave me a different perspective. Thanks. Hi Brad,

I then received the 8FIGURE course in the mail. And I just finished the 2 training call CDs. I am so in. I plan to do exactly what you say. I am psych'd to get it all going. This is exactly what I'm looking for. When I initially signed up, I knew I liked your ideas, but but at the time also felt a little burnt from other internet real estate gurus, specifically RK. My enthusiasm is through the roof after reading the white paper for the second time and listening to the training call CDs. I can't wait to dive in to the Overview and Phases 1-3 tomorrow. I'm a pediatrician and love what I do, but would love even more to be able to spend extra time with my family after crushing your system in to place. I have spent every night for the past year reading RE books, inspirational books, attending 3 different REI clubs, attending conferences & seminars, all the while looking for my place in this business. My wife supports me 100% with our vision of rounding off our kids' emotional childhood experience with the bonus of preparing them financially for their future as their first mentors. Do I have a chance to become eligible for your joint venture/mentorship program? Brad,

It confirmed what I was beginning to realize after so many mistakes! I have stumbled through 5 years of investing with much success but I didn't see the magnatude coming of the situation we are now in. If I had known of you two years ago I would have been better prepared for the market turn. I won't make that mistake in the future. Looking forward to the next seminar. Thanks again!

I have always been leery of the no-money down strategies espoused by the gurus, because it was your name and credit on the line when you entered into a deal; it was a high stakes game that I just wasn't comfortable doing. It appears that your syndication strategy pretty much removes all or most of the risk. One thing that I'm still a little unclear on is whether we (your students) enter into a deal by signing our name into any kind of deed/contract and we're legally in the deal? Or are we just a middleman that gets a cut of the profit and we do not have our names on any deed or contract? I'd just like to know exactly how it'd work before entering into your syndication deals.
