Paying for Real Estate Investing Programs??

This is a subject thats widely debated in the REI community. Im just starting out in investing in real estate, and of of course im trying to learn as much as possible and I need to take action soon. I signed up for a 3-day course from the Rich Dad events for $499 (Heres my review on the course: Rich Dad Event Review) and I didnt sign up for the follow up program that costed $18,000-$60,000 because I figured it was common sense. 

My questions to everyone out there is:

what is your opinion on paying for REI programs and mentorships? 

Has anyone ever put the large amounts of money the "gurus" charge and found it worth while?  

Is there a course that is worth the money and I should look into?

From my understanding, everything I need to know can be found on Google, Youtube and most importantly here on BiggerPockets but I was just curious as to what you guys had to say.
