I did not intend to read this book as I already
have a very long reading list for 2017.
I took a little detour because facebook ads are really kicking my
ass. The reason I read this book is
because the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad -> Robert Kiyosaki wrote the foreword
AND did a freakn’ video commercial for the book on facebook. Why the fuck else would I even know about
this kid.
Anyway, Rich Dad Poor Dad is a good book if you’re
not familiar with passive income and cash flow.
It’s a good primer to start thinking about building wealth with a different
mindset. The rest of the series… Meh…
He’s a business man. Oh, and I never realized how SIMILAR he sounds to Trump...
Back to The Circle of Profits… Yesterday, the price was 50 something on Amazon,
today it’s almost 85… https://www.amazon.com/Circle-Profit-Turn-Passion-Million/dp/1508458669
Great technique.
Because they will e-mail it to you for “free” when you sign up for their
webinar. Trading an e-mail for 85 bucks
seem like such a great deal right? But
they benefit more than you do…
There’s this new business model that seems to be
the new thing. Basically, so many gurus
are teaching you how to be rich if you give them their e-mail address and sign
up for a “free and live” webinar. Live
my ass. I’m not sure how other’s feel,
maybe there are some gullible people… It’s
obvious the videos were pre-recorded, and the “live chat” and commentary are
fake. How do I know? Because I was in a few of the “live webinars”
by the same people, the same time, while they were in different parts of the
presentation. Yes, I’m that bored.
It was a very weird experience reading this
book. The idea is basically, get a lot
of e-mail lists, provide some value, and sell your product. In the book, this product is e-books or some
digital format product where there are no variable costs and you can print
money like a licensing/royalty machine.
The irony is, you can see how this model works exactly the same way they
are fucking you.
First, they asked me for my e-mail to sign up
for a webinar. They will try to upsell
me in the webinar. If that doesn’t work,
they will try to downsell me. Then,
constantly spam my email inbox and hopefully one day I will pull the
trigger. It’s really amazing. I at least appreciate how consistent they are
with fucking you and selling you how to fuck other people. But hey, it’s a “free” ebook, and there is a
little bit of value in it… If they are
making any money, and I’m pretty sure they are because Robert Kiyosaki is a
pretty big brand (curious how he even got involved)… Then there’s something to learn from.
