Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
The past couple of days I've been hearing ads on the Beat 94.5 of free seminars happening in the Vancouver area these couple of days I believe.
Registration may be too late now or the events may already be over, but I was just wondering if anybody has personally experienced this/attended this/ or done this?
I googled Rich Dad Poor Dad and basically found that in the end they offer a sales pitch, of a $1000 course they're offering for $395 or something if you sign up tonight.
But in the end Robert Kiyosaki (The author/mastermind behind Rich Dad Poor Dad) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Kiyosaki
does not show you tips on how to succeed, but its more of a motivational type of thing, teaching you to make your money work for you, and not you working for your money.
There's apparently board games and stuff that he makes and sells, and courses can go up to $40,000.
Common sense makes me think that this is absolutely a big scam, cause the person who's making the most off this is, obviously, Robert Kiyosaki.
Any comments/thoughts/personal experiences?
Or have any of you guys even heard of this?
Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

Google search rich dad poor dad. I read one of the books, there are obviously a ton of flaws to his logic, and you can find a ton of info online as to who he really is and what is fact/fiction abotu semminars/books.
my dad mentioned rich dad poor dad to me before, and recommended me to read the book
the things they teach you in the book or in the course are probably going to be useful, but in the end, whether you succeed or not depends on you, not the book.
I went to the Donald Trump associated one at Canada Place about 2-3 years ago. Basically, it was a bunch of wannabe rich yups on stage pimpin' their books and tapes.
They got better as the day went on. This one dude in a cheap suit, who I figured made about 75k that weekend was selling this mentor program. Total bullshit. He built everyone up like he was selling Jesus and soon as he said the tills were open, there was a line of people spending a tick under 1k to buy in. I watched his pitch, and I can tell you that no one knew what the hell they were buying.
The day wasn't a total loss. There was a guy in the afternoon that was involved in Real Estate and he was good. Didn't come across like a douche. I found what he was talking about quite fascinating, and he had a room set up upstairs where he'd talk as long as there were people to talk to.
Basically, you need to keep your wits about you...leave the mastercard at home and be prepared to wade through the bullshit.
I guess there could be some useful tidbits of information, but really, if you are easily coerced into bullshit scams, then it's best to stay away. It'll only make your wallet lighter.
I went to the seminar before with a friend. I thought it was pretty bogus. You see people in the middle of the seminar start walking to the back "signing up" but you can tell its fake.
Like I told my friend, if you know how to get rich, why would you tell others? It doesn't make any sense.

Sounds like a good idea, you should do it.
And sell Perfect Water to your Rich Dad Poor Dad peers. And sell Mona Vie to your Pefect Water clients. And sell Perfect Acai to your Mona Vie clients. It's a never ending circle and the money always comes back to you, the logic is flawless.
These "free" seminars are nothing but huge pitch-fests. It's "free" to get in, but once they get you there, they are going to pitch hard to make you pay for the 'full' seminars.

No offense, but you strike me as someone who's desperate to make some money and always looking for a get rich scheme which in most cases = gullible/lazy. First with the Perfect Water scam, now this, perhaps it would be more beneficial for you to put your money, time and effort into improving your education and/or training so you can secure a better career so you can make more money, how old are you?
