Robert Allen writes in: Zero to $1million on $49.95 per month the following:
103,000 people attended his $500 weekend investment seminars in the 80’s.
20,000 people attended his $5,000 week long wealth training in the 90’s.
In his first book he wrote:
“send me to any city in America, take away my wallet, give me $100 for living expenses and in 72 hours I will buy you an excellent property, all with none of my own money”
The LA Times took him up on the challenge. They flew him to San Francisco with an LA Times reporter. In 57 hours he had purchased 7 properties worth $722,000. Today those assets are worth almost triple that amount.
His claim to fame stands up in as far as he does what he says. To prove this point he took a couple from the unemployment line, who were broke, and using Robert’s techniques went on to earn over $100,000 in the next 12 months.
The point is, I guess, is to read a few of his books, and invest $5,000 in a property instead of a seminar. And, many of the techniques he uses are used here by successful investors.
