Sure you need to know what you're doing and that is the education part, but I know a lot of people who know a lot of stuff and they are not doing any business. Why? They never pull the trigger or they are too scared or they just aren't willing to do the work.I'm only half joking when I say that our next big seminar is going to be called "How to Make 30K a Month by Working Really Hard and Mastering Your Business for the Next 2-3 years" ...Hey Josh - BTW - I think I know which big event you are going to this weekend. You are in Denver right? I have to say that when I wrote the article this week - I had in mind that very event. Hi Josh and Richard,

I’m only half joking when I say that our next big seminar is going to be called “How to Make 30K a Month by Working Really Hard and Mastering Your Business for the Next 2-3 years” …

Hey Josh – BTW – I think I know which big event you are going to this weekend. You are in Denver right? I have to say that when I wrote the article this week – I had in mind that very event.

It is all about Hard Work, but in general, people want it, and they want it today. Why put in the work if some slick salesman can convince them that they can get it tone yesterday.That said, I'm going to one of these events this weekend - loaded with all the gurus and wannabes - should be interesting.

So many people are hungry for the “secret” to becoming a great investor. However, they don’t want to hear that the only “secret” is hard work, they look for that magic bullet and gladly pay gurus to help them find it. I’ve heard so many stories of people who were taken for a ride by these scammers and stories of others who followed their “gurus” advice only to lose a fortune. It’s sad. Great points Rosie.
