Jaffa/Liz

Originally you were both spelling mneumonics, which I think is where Jaffa became undone with google. I thought the word looked strange, but I thought I didn’t know the technique, so it must be spelt right. Once Liz said mnemonics, I’m sure you’d find lots too Jaffa. []

Robert Kiyosaki, and John Burley both started their investing careers with seminars from Robert G Allen. In fact, it was listening to a tape of the first two, that made me do a search for Robert Allen on amazon.

I have since bought all of his books. Interestingly, John Burley gets a mention as one of his most successful students. In the early 80’s Allen was discussing ‘Wrapping’ as a strategy, so he was onto it way before Steve…

As for the reference to Henry Kaye – Vision Pursuit seems to be Allen’s promoter here in Aus – they also promote Tony Robbins. Henry Kaye actually partnered with Vision Pursuit – I was told he bought a 50% stake in the company, but I don’t know if that is true or not. It could well be…..

Someone mentioned that Allen advertised he made 24K in 24 hours – it was actually closer to $100K, and if you read Multiple Streams of Internet Income, it will detail exactly how he did it. It was a bit of a setup, but it was for publicity. He has a massive subscriber base, and in the weeks preceding D Day, he told them what was going to happen. ie. on this day, if you respond within 24 hours, you will get fantastic discounts off various products – ranging from one on one sessions, to Allen speaking to your company, to his courses etc. etc.

I was booked in to see Robert Allen last Tuesday, but couldn’t make it up to Sydney. I was a bit disappointed, but figured a run down would be given on here [], and that it would seem it would have to be a sales pitch. I’m seminared out, so I wouldn’t have signed up anyway – not to say I wouldn’t want to, just that I have to stop spending so much on seminars at the moment.

Geo, enjoy his seminar, get all you can out of the weekly mentoring sessions, but most of all apply the detail, and definitely report back how you go. As Tony Robbins says, there are three phases – intellectual (know the info), emotional (feel, understand), and physical (actually doing). I have phrased it wrong, but basically once you are at the physical stage, and it is part of you, that’s where it gets easy. I’ve found that seminars help me to get there – they push you that little bit, cos you meet other people there, and catch up afterwards to see how each is doing etc.

Hi wrogers

If you click on the search button under Forum Boards on the left hand side, and do a search for ‘pension’ or ‘Centrelink’ or ‘fiso’ you should come up with a few threads that have been discussed regarding these issues.

Hopefully something in there will help you out.

I really hate the thought of only getting 70% of that $160K back – cos if memory serves, some of the ‘contracts’ don’t even allow for any CG, so if your Mum is there 10 years, and the ‘retail’ value is now $300K for them to ‘onsell’, then she would still only get 70% of the $160K back.

that’s what’s the go with the mother of my ex, and it really sux – especially as all the services they promised when she signed up (9 years ago) have not materialised![thumbsdownanim

Ha ha Del, that is so true. I think of everyone who has posted here – Mini has got to have the number of words won hands down[evo]

Welcome Colin

I would agree with Brendon to do a search. It really depends on what you want to achieve as to which structure you use, and how flexible you wish to be – plus what your understanding of the structures is.

If you don’t fully understand trusts, and perhaps even if you do, I would recommend Dale Gatherum-Goss manual Trust Magic (and also Tax Battles) available from his website http://www.gatherumgoss.com

If you have further questions, by all means put them up and we’ll have a crack at them []
