Has anybody ever bought one of those infomercial programs that promise big $$$? I know that real-estate investment is a proven way of making money and there are several real estate based programs out there, but the way they are promoted makes it look over simplified. I normally just skip past them when I'm channel surfing but I can't help but be curious if anybody has actually been successful at using any of them.

I used to make really good money with my Lemonaid stand as a child.

Isn't there any of those people from the commercial here that are sitting on the beach drinking a tropical beverage because they spent $39.99 plus S&H?

The people on the beach are those that sell packages for $39.99 plus s/h.

My thoughts exactly!

If it is as much of a sure thing as they claim, then why aren't they still buying and selling property instead of hawking their how-to packages to the masses?

We have that system that I think you are talking about. I have never watched one video, and only opened the book once. I think I bought it in a drunken stupor! And I'm still a renter

Iven seen a special on one of those guys before. All the testimonials were from 'friends', and all his jets and boats were rented. Why would this guy who could make all this money, sell his secrets for 39.95.

Real Estate investing is also a proven way to loose money :D

I've known a couple of big time real estate tycoons (the multi million dollar type) that have gone bankrupt. One was living in a small apartment over his old (also defunct) construction shop.

OK, so I ordered one the other day and it arrived today. It's sitting unopened on the floor next to my new digital camera that I hanen't learned how to use yet. Now that I have come to my senses I'm going to send it back for a full refund, minus S&H of course.

I thought this was too good to be true. I went to Homedepot with folded 20 bill and they still said it was worth only 20. They need to get a grip.

get a venders liscenes and buy a pizza cart. on friday and saturday nights set up next to a bar. when everybody gets drunk they come out and are hungry. charge $20 for a slice of pizza. they are too drunk to know the difference. could make easy $1000 a night

And here I thought you were going to tell him to give free t-shirts to the drunken sorority girls for a video to be sold a a later time on the internet ;)

Just goes to show why I'm still a member of the working class and have to schlepp off to work every day to collect a paycheck

I saw an informercial tonight hosted by a squeaky-voiced Italian guy who said you can get rich buying used cars and selling them for huge profits. What a concept!

Think of the potential if you sold not just one used car, but an entire lot full of used cars at huge profits! Wait a minute....isn't that what used car dealers do?? But the used car salesmen I know aren't rich. What's the deal?

I’m going to share some of the “secrets to success� I have learned in my program!
They have devised an amazing NEW INOVATIVE way to make the big money.
You have to, as they say “BUY LOW, SELL HIGH�!

For instance:
$500 price you sell at
-$100 price you pay
-_______
$400 net profit!

All you have to do is find a product you can buy and sell like this 30 times a week and you will make $624,000 per year!

The cat is out of the bag!!!!!

Ok, I guess I'm being a little stingy with my vast knowledge and financial acumen. Here is the secret to having a steady $120,000/year income for life.

First you get a million dollars. Then you invest it in insured tax-free bonds at 12% interest. VoilĂ*! Seems so simple once it is explained to you doesn't it? HTH
