Synopsis: As an investor, you have been lied to by the voracious marketing machine of the country’s largest financial institutions and the financial media. Belief in and action taken based on the half-truths and fallacies propagated by these co-conspirators has caused millions of investors to lose massive amounts of their wealth. This workshop is designed to reveal the illusions to which you have been exposed to, and the lies to which you have fallen prey. Simply put, your ignorance, fear, anxiety and greed are very profitable to those in the financial services industry. Truth be told, many of the participants in the financial services industry including those in the media, are themselves ignorant about the lies they perpetuate.
The real truth is that the vast majority of financial and investment advice is generated to support the illusion that so called “experts” and investment firms have access to information that somehow enables them to make forecasts and predictions that will make you money. You see these “talking-heads” on television news programs spewing their propaganda like carnival barkers hawking a freak show. The reality is whether it’s an analyst, brokerage firm CEO, mutual fund manager, or even the Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank, none of these “talking-head experts” has any meaningful insight into which stocks will outperform in the future or where the market may be heading next. Essentially their forecasts and predictions are statistically worthless, subject to the vagaries of random luck. They know this too, that’s why they bury deep within their marketing literature the cautionary language; “past performance is no guarantee of future results.” Worst yet, however, listening to them could cost you your life savings!
This workshop will reveal the real truth about investing and allow you to use timeless wisdom and modern economics to grow and mange your wealth. Complicated formulas and analysis have been eliminated in order that you can focus on what is critical for investment success -- the academics of investing and the science that supports it. You don’t need to know everything – just the right things! Arm yourself against the industry’s slight-of –hand sales and marketing tactics and prepare yourself for investment success.
Who Should Attend:Any investor who sincerely desires a lifetime of peace-of-mind investing. Although designed with ruthless compassion, you are encouraged to attend this workshop with your full body amour on. Telling the unvarnished truth can be threatening to your ego and intellect. Isn’t it time someone cared enough to stand up for the truth, with the courage to tell it? One thing is certain all meaningful growth starts with the truth.
