$52K Mentor?!? Newbie from Dallas, Texas!

Since I know very little about Real Estate investing, this past weekend I went to a 3-Day seminar (through Rich Dad) where they were selling mentorship and training for $52K. (I didn't bite.)

They covered a great overview of various options.... and I see a lot of that right here on BiggerPockets!

My name is Colleen Hammond, and my only experience in Real Estate in the 11 homes I’ve bought/sold and lived in. 

Although I'm originally from Michigan, I moved to Atlanta to work at The Weather Channel, then moved to the Dallas area about 20 years ago with a job transfer. I live in North Texas (up by the Oklahoma border) on a lovely ten acre spread.

Currently, I'm an Executive Image Consultant, Author, Speaker, and Mom. I train women with their clothing choices, manners, and poise to portray the proper image and empower success. 

I want to use my income from that consultation business to become financially free using Real Estate. 

Oh, and I found BP through a Google search. 

So happy to be here, and I look forward to learning more!

Wow, I've heard of a few thousand dollars for a seminar, but $52k?!

How do they justify that?
