What a wonderful source of property knowledge you are.
Good for you. If only more people would do such research, there would not be the looming losses that so many are now facing.
I am impressed.

You have been asked not to post in this manner which is sacastic and offers no constructive criticism. This kind of negative post offers nothing to the community. -Admin
Yea, well, I am sure it will.

Mathew 9.37? Suggest you go back two steps to 35.

Check the transcript from the TV shows.

P.S. The rest of this message has been self-censored (to save you the time of doing it).
Huh?
Didn’t you read these words –

The articles are in The Courier Mail. The journalists who wrote them are all top notch.

If you find that slanderous or spreading malicous gossip then my reasoning must be a bit out of whack. I am trying so hard to be a good girl. But you’re making it tough for me. Stop it, Bec. Yes love, I am coming now.Ah, come on Steve. You can’t honestly, in your heart of hearts, expect to get away with this sort of response.
Six million dollars worth of real estate?
It’s not hard to buy real estate at the moment. To equate the price paid for property with success as an investor is either incompetent or misleading.
Before you delete this message – as you have with my others when my questions make you uncomfortable – think about this. I am not the only one who is going to ask these questions. You won’t be able to spend your life deleting questions or comments you don’t like.
This forum may be your world, but one day you will have to explain to the real world what’s happening to all those people who were promised they could become millionaires in 12 months.
A person with a million dollars of property and a million dollars in debt is NOT a millionaire, Steve, no matter what you may try to say.
Now, quick, delete this before too many people see it. Hurry, they’re looking at it already!

How sweet of you to be so kind to me. You’ll have to be quick sometimes to read my views, however, as they often get cut or deleted on this democratic forum.
Have a safe 2004.
Bec
And what’s so shameful about being a “Bec fan”?
Hey, just because many of my comments get censored, edited, deleted doesn’t make me unworthy of a fan club, surely?
Bottom line in the sight unseen point is this – Unless you know someone whose advice you value with total and undoubted confidence, don’t do it.
See ya (or should that be See yaz?)
Bec
Here’s the advice you need – in one word.
DON’T
Bec
Don’t you dare sell your own home. A home is more than just money.
Oh, if only more people would realise that in their quest for quick wealth they are giving up their greatest wealth of all – their peace of mind.
This is NOT the time to be jumping into the property market. Listen all you starry eyed hopefuls. This is the end of the boom and the start of the doom. It is the time to sit tight, pay off debt, save your pennies – and make love to each other. Ah yes, that reminds me.
The best things in life are not things.
With love

How sad that we debate legal laws instead of moral laws. How sad that so many people look for a legal way to do something immoral. Study morality instead of legality and the wrapping debate would be over.
Do good (if you can).

Dear LLJack
Sounds to me like you didn’t spend your dollar and check the Newstext site. As for ASIC, you may recall that Henry Kaye claimed ASIC had given him a clean bill of health. And then – kapow!
As a client of the Investors Club, you have a psychological need to justify and protect your decision. I understand.
All I am saying is that anyone thinking of dealing with Mr Young needs to know a bit more about how his so-called “club” operates. For you, it’s too late; for others there’s still time.
Here’s a prediction for the New Year. Mr Young and his “club” are going to be more widely known this year. Take the hint those of you who are not involved with Mr Young.
Stay safe.
Bec
Dear Wayne
Mr Pelican is right. But I’ll be more forthRIGHT – stay right away from this mob.
And, yes, I have looked at several of their so-called “great deals”. Had some agents check them out for me. Wasn’t sure which was worse – the deals themselves or the laughter from the agents at what they were claiming.
There are enough people ready to rip you off in property deals without having to pay a finders’ fee on top of it. One agent called it a suckers’ fee.
I did not get sucked and hope you don’t either.
Be careful in 04, it’s the year to ask what 4.

If you go to the Newstext site and type in Kevin Young, you will find several articles which will give you a true picture of the Investors Club.
Also, if you go to the ASIC site, you should be able to get some info.
Here is the start of just one article –
THE Investors Club, a lucrative business run by a Gold Coast real estate mogul who travels Australia signing up Mum and Dad investors for multiple properties, is under “intensive investigation” by both ASIC and the Office of Fair Trading. Investigations across the country have so far revealed that the business may be in breach of several laws including the Crimes Act,
Obviously, for copyright reasons, it would not be right to post the entire article here. Pay your dollar and read it all for yourself on the Newstext site.
I hope this is of some help to you.

Billionaire in Training is one of the most vile books I have ever read. I could not believe that any business person could condone such methods.
While I don’t agree with wraps, this fellow Brad Sugars makes the worst wrappers look like saints.
He believes in the win for him and lose for others method.
Here is just one example of the appalling advice he gives…
Now I know what we’ve all be taught. I know the text books say we should be aiming for a win-win situation. This is one of the biggest fallacies when it comes to negotiating..
You can only sell at a profit if you buy at a loss. Not your loss, the sellers. Remember, somebody has to be losing through the sale of a business. Your job is to ensure it’s not you.
Oh really?! To do business on the basis that someone else is hurt is despicable. If this is what it takes to become rich (which it isn’t), then poverty is the better option.
In the UK, this guy is becoming known for – well, I can’t really say it in public, but let me assure you all that this is one chap you ought to avoid like the plague.
Trust me on this – we are going to be hearing a lot more about him in the very near future.

This is one group you’d better be absolutely sure you do your homework on before you part with a cent.
The line “never sell” is a great way to cover the fact that you never know you have paid too much.
Be careful, be very careful.

THE ANSWER IS BLOWIN’ IN THE WIND
Without wanting to spoil the back-slapping party, I really think you should provide some specifics.To imply that the results need to be private because the lucky 10 don’t want the rest of the country to know their business is nonsensical.
This was a very public challenge where millions of people were told about a program that could make them into millionaires in 12 months. They were ready to go public to be accepted.
Why so shy now?
Something doesn’t feel right. Without specific progress reports, you are leaving yourselves wide open to some rather awkward questions.
And, please, don’t throw brickbats at me. My message is just the first whisper of a strong wind that may soon be a-blowin’ your way.
Cheers
