You just have to pick the "right" school....

So I spent the afternoon at yet another "learn how to trade stocks" seminar put on by some nare-thee-wells who go around the country renting hotel rooms, running late night infomercials, and taking poor innocents' money that they are trying to both save and grow.

I don't like these guys and guys like them one bit.

The entire seminar was one jawdropping "how would YOU like to be in control" question after another.....everything from "make a million" to "never have to work again". 
Just take our two day course and know all you need to know. It's regularly $6000 but if you sign up right now we will cut it to $3,995....blah blah blah.

If you sign up right now you get a 1/3 discount which is like the supermarket where the jack up the price of hamburger and sell it two for one. 

These guys remind me of the school in the picture. Foundation borded up and the upper windows open.  MORAL:  All schools aren't alike.  No two are.   This is the marketplace for a quick buck (advertised) and a profit for the owners.
