Robert Kiyosaki And Other Scam Artists

[megaman7552]

Check out casey serin on youtube and then you see the result of robert kiyosaki wisdom.

[megaman7552]

I live in europe, it is a good thing that such gurus do not exist in europe. We have a good social security system in europe.

[Davidt963]

lol i got rich cuz i listened to these guys. ur just jealous:-)

[justcallmeassinine]

The selling of greed is as American as apple pie. And when the sheep have been bled dry and no longer have any hope left,they turn to the Tele-Evangelist,the bottle,drugs,or take their family to a 'better' place with a gun.The quintessential American loser story.

[Jimenezz89]

Gosh.. There is NO ultimate key to "success". There are different roads towards Rome and everyone's success story is unique. It also depends on how you define success. IF you had listened to these speakers, you would know that success is also an inner condition. You cannot possibly be successful if what youre doing isnt satisfying you,regardless of how much money you make or how many toys and cars you have. I also dont care if these speakers are no true stockexpert or businessmen. They educate.

Absolutely wonderful video!

Study the economy to find stable markets with six figure salaries. Get training for those jobs and use them as a foundation for investing. Build your credit. Build your savings.

Study the economy to find stable market with double digit returns. Get training in these investments and use them as a foundation for retirement. Build your investments. Build your returns.

The road to financial freedome is a long road. Those saying otherwise are selling you something

[carsonc29]

@iamgabrielf so your basically sayin peopole should just focus on gettin edu then beggin some coprporation for a job, instead of tryin to creat e opportunity for themselves?..any get rich quick talk is as usual to good to be true and should be avoided, but not every opportunity outside the constructs of a job is fake, or a scam

[shakeandvac]

Great video, there's not much out there showing the 'other side of the coin'.

I've read 'in-depth' many of the people listed, but I think you shouldn't trash all their content, as that would be a dis-service to your viewers.

eg: Anthony Robbins' Get The Edge is not intended to turn you into an 'Anthony Robbins', it turns you into the best 'YOU' that you can possibly be.

If you can resist the 'conveyor belt' of their products, & cherry-pick to suit yourself, there's useful content to be read.

[bestill1985]

Yes, they do sell cheap dvd's, books, cd's and conference tickets for more than they are worth, but that is to provide a product or service in order to make the business legal. If these types of businesses were operating strictly on cash, it would still work, but it would be illegal. These guys can take $1 and shit out $2.50....guess whos advice I am going to follow.

[bestill1985]

Actually, they won't tell you about their investment decisions because they are not licensed to,so that would be illegal. If they did give you advice on which investments they invest in, that would drive the stock price upward, and they would make more money due to the rising costs, so that theory doesn't make sense.

[ilikeoldelpaso]

whoever believes in this doesnt believe in themselves

[bbknoz]

lol... go on Tony Robbins' facebook and look at all of the msges people leave on his wall... There is a lot of "you've changed my life" on there...

[guitarmanFER]

anyone who talks down on inspiring people who are actually making a difference and changing peoples lives are CLOSE MINDED people, WHO WILL BE STUCK IN THE HAMSTER WHEEL OF LIFE!.. it seems their grammar and Leadership skills are not developed yet as well.

[bon1bon]

I dont get it? If I wanted to learn how to play baseball I would find a great coach and learn from him. If that mean I have to buy his products then so be it as long as I put in the work and get the results. Since everyone can go to my baseball coach this opens the market for other to become "coaches" some good some bad. Sure you can teach yourself how to play get free books but the learning curve is cut when you have a coach.

[letmechanistsrule]

@bon1bon except with a good baseball coach, he is teaching you how to play baseball. these motivational speakers are not giving you any valuable information for you money.

[letmechanistsrule]

if they actually did tell people step by step methods for becoming rich, etc., there would be nothing wrong with what they are doing. but they don't do that. they spew out meaningless emotional garbage.

[anglekan]

@letmechanistsrule Yes. I have read rich dad poor dad several times. It is like the Tao of money thinking. Too much philosophy.

[mjpitche]

These guys are just public personalities and they do that thing where they have people buy their shit and spend more and more money thinking the more they spend, the closer they will be to learning the real secrets to success. The best piece of advice is the save your money. If you want to read the books from these guys, borrow them from the library. If you really want to become rich, just learn how to invest well and try to get some kind of real estate investment.

[DimebagVision]

Oldest trick in the book. List motivation speakers as 'scam artists' only to promote your shitty website that isn't even listed anymore, and attract those who paid for training/education but did nothing with them because they had no backbone to put their training to use.

[ChesterDoraemon]

kiyosaki is a fraud i knew it back in 2003. the man was no substance then he is none now. i looked at his stupid webpage today he's changing his tune after the real estate disaster and is now promoting commodities. lol this charlatan is now trying to teach people how to lose their shirts trading futures.

[DimebagVision]

@ChesterDoraemon

Real Estate isn't bad right now since the prices are nice and low. Kiyosaki is also talking about commodities because, well, they're a good investment now if you know how to invest in them. But oh well.

[myaksitch]

Its amazing that there are so many losers here! "These people never give details answers to the companies that made them rich!" and"Scammers should be put in jail." And the poor dad with a degree in Economics doesn't like Kiyosaki! It's amazing the messages Kiyosaki gives if people were not so closed minded to hear them.

[zdrux]

@myaksitch They read the material Kiyosaki put out (I hope?) but obviously didn't get the message that is contained in his books. I suppose they don't understand what "changing the way you think" means, and the banks that crashed the economy and filed for bankruptcies should be the ones who continually teach us how to be prudent with our money. This is nothing but a suicide course for anyone who thinks financial advisers are the right people to take advice from.

[carsonc29]

@zdrux why would any bank want to teach anyone about money and how it works?...from a business perspective, how would it benefit banks to educate people on money, that would take away their advantage..do you think that people who bought subprime loans woulda still bought them if they were fully educated on how they worked and the full risk , most of them wouldnt, and just think how much money banks pulled in from them loans..record profits, huge ceo exec bonuses.why would they risk that

[martin4u2]

Looks like Kiyosaki, Tracy and Robbins didn´t like this video

[DimebagVision]

"These guys are scam artists because they didn't make me an instant millionaire in 24 hours" Fuck you!

[knighterbiter]

The people i saw of this video like Kiyosaki, Tracy, and Hopkins all have great books! What i see from the negative comments is excuses for why your still "losers" financially and likely in life.... Take some responsibility...

[cr5291]

@knighterbiter Your the looser! Kioscami is a fraud he is in no way rich because of his buissenes success meerley by the fact he charged $500 a seat to hear him talk crap!

[cr5291]

Great video! These people NEVER give detailed answers to the companies that made them rich! There should be hundreds of people who know them from their bussiness success but they are only know for what they are now!

Scammers should all be in jail!

[interuniversal321]

I can't understand the motivation of the person who made this video. Kiyosaki's books, while being a bit self promotional, are invaluable. I personally made a fortune after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, and avoided losing it all in 2008 after I read his "Prophecy" book.

[dub310]

if you going to tell ITss a scamm

GET THE REAL INFORMATION dont block your seft....

[seahlisong]

Thanks for making this video. I totally agree with you. I have a degree in Economics and have found Kiyosaki's books to be utter nonsense, and now I've an added perspective on this - he's just scamming people. Was wondering why he wrote such nonsense, esp about Bretton Woods' collapse in '71.

[Donninator1]

man this video is so wrong.

the secret isn't something quick.. Robert has always truthfully said you need a strong foundation.

you are messed up tryna give disinfo

[atieng24]

this video is just proof that you dont understand the secret

[kessass83]

@atieng24 I don't know what secret Kiyosaki had. You buy when there is low and you sell when there is high. About cash flow? I don't think so you need high IQ. You buy when there is boom in certain area, or in some major metro area, such as CA, NY, DC, MA, IL, where is huge and frequent people turn over and where immigration is high. Yes long term rent is the best, but most likely on a long term people will rather buy than rent, and as I listen him he specify on lower class people.

[ILalang3]

you guys are losers!

[henent]

I have read Robert, Dave Ramsey and I have put together a business school that does give the answers how to build that perfect business. It is a one time purchase and the rest is history because I show the student the money. Entry level to the class is $20.00. Come flip some gold with me!

[lfrohling]

ah love it... Who do you believe the bullshit movie maker who offers no proof or hope or anything or the people featured in the movie who offer hope (and who knows what else?)

Whatever, I believe Kiyosaki cause he has a track record and is the embodiment of entrepreneurship- he practises what he preaches. He may not provide the actual steps but he does inspire your own dream. With that you get off your cyncial fat ass and grow up- sooner or later and find your own path- you big baby :)

[BiggBrotha]

@lfrohling i can send you a link to a site in which tries to prove that  Robert Kyosaki is a scam. Mattter of fact, type in John T Reed in google and on his site look for Robert Kyosaki . i hope you find it

[onetondrumbum]

@lfrohling Robert Kiyosaki Robert Kiyosaki is a scam artists who runs $500 a person seminars in which the sole purpose is to try to get you to plunk down $15,000-$45,000 for other seminars and "training" to learn the "secrets" to financial freedom.

[daveashe]

Don't underestimate the motivation needed when starting a business, but you are right that they don't give specific steps, the only thing is -  that there are no specific steps and its not intuitive at all! The best way to become good at anything is to just jump in and do it, and most people don't get to the point of just doing it so thats why these guys are all rich as they attract the wannabes rather than the do-abees.

[Topazman12]

Noticed how they only sell books. There are some who would lead you by the hand to make the proper investment choice, like buying a good rental income property and then helped you get more wealth by equity. By charging for honest service.

Not by charging the price of a seminar. Not by taking your money away and saying so sad too bad.

[whyicare]

Read Robert Kiyosaki prediction about 2010 stock market. He said it would be horrible for 2010. As of today the market is up. He said most people (investors) had a bad year in 2009 while he made tons of money. S&P 500 was up over 20% in 2009. He said that there would be a boom market from 2002 up to 2009 and it would be just like 1995-2000. It didn't happen. The average return from 2002 to 2007 was about 9%. Avg return for 1995-2000 was 31%. Of course the market crashed in 2008.

[PiedPiper97601]

Never went to a Tony Robbis seminar. Never went to a Kiyisaki seminar. Didn't need to. I read their books. And then, I put what seemed useful from their books into practice.  I can assure you, Mr. Kiyosaki's advice on Real Estate investing is more than smoke and mirrors. The 50 rentals units we own attests to it. And, my wife and I started out with nothing. Lots of hard work. No easy road.

[justcallmeassinine]

@PiedPiper97601 Just because you have 500 units doesn't mean much. Have you calculated you annual rate of return ? What is it ? If you are making some money after all your expenses and overhead,you are doing well in this economy,even if its just a few thousand.It is highly competitive.Tell me that I'm not spot on right.

[PiedPiper97601]

@justcallmeassinine Not 500, 50. And the annual rate of return is doing just fine and our cash flow as well. The down economy has not really affected our cash flow much. So, I would say you are not "spot on right". Kiyosaki knows his shit. One may not agree with him, one can call him a scam artist. Everyone's entitled to an opinion.

[kustom69ar]

who ever made this video, is a joke. and probably wont get anywhere in life. haha and your probably just jelous that your not as successful as these man and women.

[kwanzee]

One person's poison can be another's favourite. I personally benefit lots from reading "Rich Dad Poor Dad". I think you need to know understand yourself and judge yourself if Robert and these experts can offer you what you are looking for. Utimately, you need to be responsible for your own actions. If you are easily motivated by just attending motivation seminars and go back to own self then you got to learn that this is your flaw and be smarter next time. Understand yourself is important.

[nuladee]

Robert Kiyosaki i know for a fact does talk about his investments dating back to the early 1990's...i'm not taking sides, i'm just saying what i've seen him say in some of his articles.

[lilpoindexter]

Of course it's a scam..if you go to a hotel conference room, and they try to upsell you into the "real" conference...its a scam

[oldguitardude]

You obviously haven't read any of their books or attended their seminars. Oh why am I commenting on this?

[mikesturko]

I've made thousands of dollars following the advice of these people. It's the lazy, get-rich-quick people who scream foul when the money doesn't automatically start falling into their laps without them doing anything. If nobody saw any benefit to these things, they would stop shelling out. Yet people keep going. Because they see value. Just because you don't see the value doesn't make it a "scam". Have fun with your pity-party.

[kaasis85]

@mikesturko

what advice did you follow? they don't give any solid advices for anything specific, they are too vague to have any value. I believe if someone needs constantly to be pampered with seminars and success stories he is no good to go in the business, he is sick, addicted to fairy tales. What makes someone successful is knowing what needs to be done in his field, and it's all about specific things not some vague statements and motivational liners.

[tdt50000]

@mikesturko i totally agree with mikesturko. speaking specifically of kiyosaki's teachings, i believe the information is actually quite specific and verifiable. i had a personal lunch conversation with one of his attorney advisors at one of the conferences, and i can assure, these are real people giving solid advice. his advice was the generally accepted best practices for llc structuring. maybe the people who want to criticize this stuff should actually try to understand it first.

[AlbertheGreek]

How successful are you giving out this "advise"? I' d rather listen to someone successful than someone who' s just critical of everyone and everything!
