I don't know anything about this case and don't know the person in question, never even listened to the podcast or anything but this is what I gleaned from reading the same article you did.

I see Ken posting this weekend so he is around.. from what I have gleaned he charges 15k for his training.. whether you can buy an hour of his time I am dont know.

And I think he did make a post that he is moving back to the mainland and it sounded like maybe taking  a different role in ODC  Again hard to glean things from facebook no one really gives any details on that site so all just wag's on my part.

Dominic, I've found that participating on BiggerPockets forums, appearing on podcasts, and speaking at conferences have built trust with first-time passive investors when those forum posts, podcast discussions, and conference presentations show my experience, track record, and market knowledge to those reading, listening, or attending.This doesn't mean "selling from the stage", but instead, sharing actionable, useful information that I've gleaned from my many years of experience and from my own research. 

I know I have much to learn and I look forward to gleaning info from each of your strategies in hopes of building a successful portfolio.

I look forward to connecting and gleaning insights from each other.Best regards,Stanley

Quick turnaround is key, & regular inspections are essential for effective preventative maintenance.I hope you are gleaning great insights from these posts.

One can glean a ton of perspective and grounding from the input from others in the field.

Given you're a first time investor, there's a lot to glean from the walkthroughI would also listen to the straight up Chicago investor podcast for additional resources.

I have one mastermind group where we've met for 5 years or so and it's been extremely worth it to glean insights and also to vent.
