Depends on who you did the 'seminar' with and what promises/claims of results they made. I've been doing options for about 18 months, did the Massland course, and thankfully now have nothing to do with them. Options are NOT easy, they take a long time to learn, longer to do, and require a lot of consistent work. My advice to you based on my personal experience is ask the following questions of teh seminar spruiker in question:

can they prove the claims they're making. Eg: if they say they're worth $500Million get some accountants statements to prove it and make sure they're not just renting somewhere and living upstairs (doesn't sound liek someone worth $500 Million does it?),

if they say they have 100 projects on the go, get them to show you some proof of that and I mean independent proof.

If they say the industry will deal with them and they're all good mates etc, prove it, have one of them provide a letter of reference, and most imortantly,

if they say they have many successful students then ask to speak with one of them. Find out if any of them have actually been paid out more importantly, and what kind of support they get.

Find out if the 'coaches' they say will mentor you through things have actually done any deals themselves and are speaking from experience, and if not, how can they mentor you through anything..

If they use big names as references ask them if those names are contractually bound to their 'system' and if so for how long, see some evidence that its not just "oh well we were in the same room as them once".

My experience has been that there are some out there saying they're a development company who do 'seminars' on teh side, when in reality it's the opposite – they're a seminar company trying to do developments and their primary source of income is upselling you into 'mentoring' programs. I'd ring around the industry, mention the name of the group you're dealing with, and find out what the industry thinks. I've had some very, very interesting conversations over the last year or so. Options themselves are good, but they require a very in depth knowledge of the developing industry, very good contacts and a lot of patience and experience. My advice is tread very carefully, ask a lot of questions, get a LOT of proof that you're not just being seperated from your money and left out to dry.

Best of luck.
