Hey guys, so I know, me Mr. quit spending your money on courses, all information is available online for free just spent $1500 on an informational product and weekend education seminar.

If you guys watch my channel regularly you'll know that my business partner and I sometimes attend some of these hotel sales pitches for various programs and courses. We attended Daymond John's Sellers Playbook which ironically has since been shutdown by the FTC for fraud. We attended the Amazon Seller which also has since been shutdown by the FTC for fraud. We've also attended various investing and real estate as well as sell on Amazon courses. Pretty much all have seemed like outright scams to me. The presentation is all about hyping you up about how much money your going to make the the lifestyle of freedom your going to live, but there's very little education during the seminar let alone even telling you what their education is all about. Today's was a bit different and they actually got me to signup.

So the course I bought is from the United States Tax Lien Association, it's a course that teaches you how to buy tax liens at auctions. In the video I kinda briefly break down what these are and how it works. 

Now years ago I took real estate classes and they briefly taught about these and it peaked my interest. For years I've always meant to investigate this type of investment further but had never really gotten around to it so when my business partner mentioned there was a little afternoon seminar in our area I said cool let's check it out.

I was pleasantly surprised that the seminar was actually educational and informational and not just a big hype session. They actually fielded questions and actually gave an overview of how the process works as well as what their 3 days training was all about which was very different than any others we'd been to.

At the end they mentioned if you signup you can take home the course materials today and attend the first day of the 3 day seminar in September and if your not happy after that you can get your $1500 back no questions asked so I figured risk free what the heck. We actually initially walked out, my partner said I actually kinda thought that was interesting if your down I'm down so we decided to buy it. 

Now again normally I'll Google these companies and see a bunch of stuff on ripoff reports, my phone had died so had to make a decision on the spot. After leaving I did some brief Google searching and couldn't really find any horrible reviews of this course or anything saying its an outright ripoff. Worst thing I found was people saying basically different juristictions and counties are so different that a cookie cutter approach from a course may not be that effective but I saw some discussions on Bigger Pockets a real estate and personal finance blog and forum and the people over there seemed to not have anything too horrible to say about it and a few people actually praised it.

Now I know I could get this information for free online, but this was one of those instances where I thought having someone else consilidate this information for me as well as provide some resources and hand holding may be worthwhile.

I'll keep you guys updated on how the course materials are as well as if I decide to go through the whole thing or if I decide it's not worth it and just take a refund.
