Than Merrill's FortuneBuilders vs The Simple Man's Guide to Real Estate

A couple of days ago we received the following email from a client who had first gone to a Than Merrill FortuneBuilders seminar. This individual discovered exactly what we have been stating for 30 years - real estate investing is not rocket science - ordinary people have been using it to create wealth for over a thousand years. And as such, learning how to succeed in it should not cost thousands, or tens of thousands of dollars. When you compare the $50,000+ that  most "gurus" charge against the $100 cost of the complete "Simple Man's Guide to Real Estate", there really is no comparison.

Here is Kim's letter - we receive many such letters every month:

Where I already knew Than Merrill Fortune Builders would try to sell us on a more expensive program. We went to get some insight to the weekend workshop.

Having previously been involved in some RE dealings but still learning it did give me some helpful info worth my $200

We knew they would try to upsell a larger program & after looking them up expected $15,000-$30,000 as their price. People fell over at the $49,000 price tag then $34,000 or $25,000. In addition $97 monthly for software. $20,000 for an intense 2 day program after the Mastery program. It went on & on.

They should be ashamed to ask that much. Sell books at $100-200, sell software for $250, sell forms for $300. Anything in bits & pieces people can choose, I would think they would get more sales as opposed to having all but 2 people walking out

It's not an accredited college so don't compare it to one with those prices.
Yes invest in knowledge but don't rip people off.

If they were doing so well & enjoying RE, they wouldn't be trolling people in this manner they would honestly be helping knowing they don't need to make their true fortune from the students

We are so glad we found "The Simple Man's Guide to Real Estate". A simple, complete program at a VERY affordable cost. Thank you
