Investment Course Help

Jeffsplace profile photo

Greetings to all. I'm really new to the game and wanted to know if anyone could set me in the right direction for investment courses. There's so many get rich quick deals out there that everyone should be a millionaire. I would'nt turn down the chance of being a millionaire, but for now I'm just looking to better myself maybe make a go at property. Can you really buy a house or property with " No Money Down"? Well enough already, any help would be great. I was looking at the Carlton Sheets course. Any input?
Thanks in advance for any help. :-? :-? :-?

    Before yuo go out and spend money, hit the library or friends bookshelves to get more educated first, then from there you may see a course or program that makes sense.

    Many teachers and course marketers no longer actively invest while some never have. They just learned the techniques well enough to teach them, though not well enough to be successful with them themselves. Some still teach methods that have been outdated for 10-20 years.

    You will want to research the direction you want to go as an investor. Their are so many investment strategies along with teachers teaching them it's hard to make a choice but education doesn’t mean anything. Don’t get me wrong: We can say the word “education” and get that special feeling inside, like we’re chanting some sacred incantation. We can also use the educational system to get a job, or use prestigious universities as resume fluff:

    In this manner, education is nothing more than a disposable product. This may seem outrageously idealistic, but I was under the impression that the meaning of education fell somewhere near enlightenment. I’m not talking spiritually. I’m talking in terms of knowledge that goes beyond the mere storage and repetition of mundane information, or workshop lingo that alienates everyone outside your workplace or vocation.

    I’m talking about the difference between treating education like a dear loved one, and treating it like a cheap one-night stand. The prevailing attitude in our mainstream culture is the latter. Although we can get so worked up about funding, class size, and pedagogical methods, what does any of this mean if we do not infuse education with human value?

    Education should be about encouraging the importance of learning in concert with knowing. The emphasis on knowing something is overrated and serves to further the degradation of learning in our society. It’s the same emphasis that encourages “knowing everything you need to know”

    This prevailing attitude will never value education past its practical function as a disposable package to be tossed into the trash once its contents have been consumed. With such an approach, it is next to impossible to spark the desire to learn.

    If it cost you $10,000 to learn how to profit in real estate you can profit from it for the rest of your life.

    In just, no matter the costs invest in your self, your family, and your future!

    I would suggest searching TCI's articles and forum post, spend about a week doing this so that you can decide what direction you would like to go and than you will find a great source of information courses and books at: http://www.thecreativeinvestor.com/Shopping_Cart-index.html
