Boy has this thread gone off to space or what ???
We all have different opinions about what constitutes a high priced seminar….
As mentioned many many times now….
It’s all about MINDSET, and, ACTING on the knowledge gained….
Even a $200 seminar is “high priced” / worthless if I do not act on what I learnt in the seminar…..
Yes, it’s…[Read more]

Yorker,
In general many commercial buildings in Malaysia are in a state of disrepair. Maintenance is rarely done….
If it is a close friend then, you will be better off, but, if you are serious about this, then, a visit to Malaysia ( I’m assuming KL ? ) is a MUST, to see for yourself….
pelican replied to the topic Malaysian Property Investment in the forum General Property 20 years, 2 months ago
Yorker… all I would say is :
DON’T DO IT…….
If you are not Malay, then you are at a disadvantage ALWAYS in Malaysia….
Quality of buildings is NOT good at all, They don’t even know what maintenance means at all……
It’s just not worth the risk……

Well, Some people here just don’t get it…. they criticise people for doing well, then if those people show any chaitable tendancies, oh.. it must because they think it’s trendy now…..

Wallflower,
Agree with your comments about getting stuck on the “how much really goes to…” comment…..
BUT, as Geo mentioned, my intent is to ensure that the maximum amount goes to the people who really need it…..
There are many charities out there, who through sponsorships / donations, made themselves self sufficient as far as costs…[Read more]

Thanks….. I know it’s a topic that is discussed at length, and, your right…. I should have faith……

Rogue,
Please don’t take this the wrong way, as, I was just wondering……
How much of your $1.00 actually makes it to the child ( Worldvision ) ??? I had heard a few things about that before, but would like to help……..
I’d like to contribute to childrens causes……

MINDSET ( it’s the journey, not the detination )
ACTION

Rogue / Wez,
I ask you this……
If I was able to make say 200,000 per year, which you feel is bad, but I’m then in a position to help others… then, I’m still wrong ????? hmmm ????
One thing you will see as you go along, if you have the mindset, is…… When you become wealthy, you start to spread it around to others who need it…[Read more]

Wez,
Very well put, I think some people do seem to get “addicted” to seminars, without really thinking about what they are doing…..
Just as some people get addicted to one way of investing only……….
Horses for courses……
pelican replied to the topic High Priced Seminars in the forum Opinionated! 20 years, 2 months ago
Wez,
true…. they do play on people’s FEAR & GREED…
I always wondered if I held a seminar, I’d actually do up a slide showing all the costs of holding it, plus a small profit for my time…… to show the real costs….. Keep it open so people know what they are paying for……
What do you think ???
30k for a seminar…. yeah… too…[Read more]

A several thousand dollar seminar / course can be a pinch of salt, IF, you have the ability to act on the education you receive…….
