Now let me correct that statement. We didn’t actually “meet” as I was not in possession of the $1,400 they were asking for their conference package. Nor was I able to spend the $400 they were asking for a collection of their material that could be purchased on Amazon for under $200.

No, we didn’t exchange pleasantries. Instead, I overheard Loral and Harry in the hallway outside the convention yelling at someone that I assumed was the promoter.

Did I say “yelling”? I should have said “screaming” because there was nothing being held back.

I will give Loral some credit here. She only screamed. Harry, on the other hand, screamed and dropped f-bombs every other word.

This was a conference. It was a Saturday. There were families present.

I was not sneaking around listening to a private conversation. I was returning from the men’s room, down a public hallway, in a large hotel and I couldn’t help but overhear their rantings.

It seems that the crowd was not large enough and poor Loral and Harry couldn’t possibly make enough money so they were threatening not to speak at the conference (both were listed as keynote presenters).

I was amazed at how greedy some people can be. Here I was listening to supposed multi-millionaires. These people supposedly had can’t-fail plans for how to make money in this economy. And here they were crying about how they couldn’t make any money on people who came to hear them speak.

It seems to me that if you have a valuable product then all you should have to do is tell people about it and it will sell itself. I guess that Loral and Harry really didn’t have anything worthwhile and marketing it to only a couple hundred people wasn’t worth their valuable time. I can also assume that their never-fail wealth building scheme is really just a scam and that they are really making their money selling their books at twice the going price to suckers attending their conferences.

If you had seen and heard what I had then you would keep your money far away from Loral or Harry. They have no interest in seeing you successful. They are only interested in how much you will spend.

If this is what wealth is all about then I am glad that I am just average.

Loral Langemeier may appear sweet and helpful but she is not. Harry S. Dent is worse.

These are two of the ugliest people on the planet and I strongly recommend that you keep your wallet far away from both of them.

It is more like paying a fee to enroll, upwards of about $14K and then you attend a bunch of webinars and 3 meetings in Tahoe close to where she lives.

She is so popular that she has way more students than she can handle and only a handful actually make any money from her. She is the one making the big bucks…and, there are no refunds. I would never do something like this again.

There are others like Phil's Gang who is a master stock chart reader and only charges $39.95 a month, so it is affordable for as long as you want and can drop out if you want without paying an exhorbitant fee. Also Monica Main has great ebook materials for investing in real-estate for about $100-300 bucks. You will learn more and pay way less…and they are accessible unlike Loral. I would say don't do it because regardless of what they say, you are on your own.

I will follow the advice a wise small animal vet gave me. “Know your business, work hard and treat clients well. You’ll have a good life. Don’t put your cash into the other guys pocket where you have no expertise. I don’t expect my dentist to know how to neuter, and I don’t have much idea of how to make a denture fit. Invest in building your own expertise and business.”

I just read Jack Canfield’s book “The Power of Focus” I learned I don’t need a wealth coach, so much as a good horse trainer, since my dream is to raise fine golden horses. I just shipped a fine golden stallion to John Wallen.

I also need a CPA who can unscramble receipts from my property manager. Loral is right about hiring experts, to do what you cannot. Her sales folk now claim that she does not have any specific list of qualified experts. (So much for building my team?)

I do believe I should do my own chores as my health allows, until I’m completely debt free and my businesses are more profitable.
For those struggling with debt, try watching Dave Ramsey on CNN? My TV has been broken since March. I find that I only miss a few shows.

I’m going to focus on feeling very happy that I have invested in my horse, not some unknown coach.
In Showing horses, one needs to find the trainer and the horse who can take you where you want to be, because they have been there and have the trophies to prove it. (Theirs or their students)

Personal trainers are probably fit, but so are most Marines. You also need someone who can teach you those skills, and modify them to your current level. I believe I will follow the advice frequently posted and contact SCORE to find the CPA I need.
I asked the lady who called me and she claimed that Loral stayed out of recommending specific investments. Her Big Table allowed us to network among other successful people. (Can you say Country Club? Beware, I know people who have lost many thousands following a “name” off a cliff, there, as well.)

Perhaps this site could be the network of assosiates we are all wanting?
I’ll cheer for you if you cheer for me.

Good Luck!

Dr Phil should be ashamed of himself for promoting this woman. I learned the hard way through Tony Robbins coaching. I love the books, cd’s, dvd’s etc. Great info! But the coaches were so horrible! I got a partial refund because they knew they were in the wrong.

Marie Diamond from The Secret, is also a big waste of money. Flew her out to my home for a Feng Shui reading and my money and my relationships got worse. Poor customer service. I finally got to know other people she knew and they say she has true talent but a lot of people were complaining about the same thing and she owes them money but can’t pay them back because she is broke. She costs $800hr + expenses.

Sonia Choquette same thing, friends of Louise Hay and Dr Wayne Dyer. Got a bad reading from her for $400 half hr. Wasn’t even close to reality. Saw reviews on her that point to her being a fraud also. She has great books, but not the real deal in intuitive readings.

I’m a follower of The Secret, and friends of friends with some of the people on there. I haven’t heard good things. I know this is just gossip to say this, but I was such a believer and thought finally good people, and maybe they are, but they just don’t deliver. They have great copywriters and make so much money. I think they all belong to a group of people that promotes each other and by that they promote themselves. I guess if I wanted to make people unhappy by making big promises and not delivering that would make me rich and famous too. Then I wouldn’t have a need to buy these types of courses. LOL I guess I’ve learned my lesson.

The thing is we want to believe so badly, and these people want to make so much money themselves but they can not provide the service they believe they can. They fall short and hope no one finds out. It’s a good idea to have these boards.

I still believe that lots of great money making ideas exist that don’t take a lot of effort and money. I know I have been successful in several areas of my life. I’m open to finding them, but I’m only looking for ones with great reviews.
