Re: FREE COURSE!

Hi Sir Burr :)

my credit card response was simply my strange at times sense of humour in reply to your earlier post regarding not having received a reply from money tree - I got the impression you might have been concerned he'd done a runner :D

regarding that link you posted, I have no idea. Personally I have no interest in money tree's course.

cheers

Re: FREE COURSE!

Hi Moneytree,

Just a few weeks ago I had looked at your webpage and was going to purchase the course. However at the time I decided against it as I was just going to be starting a new course (nothing to do with shares) and didn't know how much time it would take up.

Now that I have started it and feel comfortable with the time needed for it I would be very interested in having a look at your course. Especially if it's free. :)

Very happy to give feedback too.

As to the reason why, well I have worked in the share trading industry for over 7 years (only recently left) and due to compliance rules was not able to trade as freely as I wanted and did not ever hear about these other trading strategies. Most of the advisors I knew did not like to deal in anything outside of the ordinary share.

I am interested in increasing my passive income level. I would like to see how much benefit different share trading strategies could offer me.

Thanks,
Quinny

Hope that every one knows that to make money, it comes from someone losing it.

Thats the game. ;)

Re: FREE COURSE!

money tree,

I am one of the many people who have replied to your free course offer. As much as I'd dearly love to receive a free copy of your course I'm thinking my odds aren't good considering the large number of reponses, and I'm pretty sure your not going to give us all a copy. So how would you feel about a revised offer - If a member agrees to review your course and post the results they can purchase the course for half the usual price. Atleast this way you get something in return. It would be up to you how many members you wish to offer this to.

You can count me in.

Steve.

Anything of that kind would have to go by Joe first, this is not a site for free marketing. I'm not saying MT is going to do it but just in case it is considered it's good to check first.
 
Re: FREE COURSE!

Hi again
I am just thinking that I will withdraw my hand as I dont think I have the time to fully evaluate it, and it wouldnt be fair to take this opportunity from others who can give it justice!

But I will be interested to hear their outcomes! ;)

Thanks for the Offer MT!

Congratulations to the several winners. And might I add - good safe choices Money Tree.

You couldn't find nicer people on ASF.
 
Re: FREE COURSE!

Well well well, let me sum up the freebie saga.

1. Free course – just put your hand up – one can assume random selection

2. 50 and over are laughed at and ridiculed – one can exclude self if not young enough

3. Final selection to lovely contributors – looks like change of conditions – one did not have a chance if doesn’t meet new criteria.

And probably this post looks like sour grapes to everybody else.

Of course congratulations to winners and just funny thought, according to final selection criteria, owner of the course could not give one to himself, luckily he doesn’t have to.
 
Re: FREE COURSE!

Hi happy :)

don't worry about it ;)

if you look back at one of his earlier posts you will see that at first he clearly states there are no strings attached and then in the same post goes on to impose what are essentially unenforceable conditions in that you must not disclose certain strategies (and he doesn't specify which ones) to anyone at all and you also must not lend his course notes to anyone either....I'll be getting a copy from someone who has a copy anyway after they have finished with it to see what all the fuss is about over his course ;)

to me, the whole exercise came across as a desperate attempt to drum up some awareness of his course by resorting to giving it away for free.

the whole things sounded suss because whenever someone gives away something for free when they usually charge for it, it suggests to me there isn't much demand for it.

so the moral of the story is - don't lose any sleep over missing out if you put your hand up for a copy ;)

cheers

Re: FREE COURSE!

MT,

Thanks very much for the offer, I'm close to accepting, keeping in mind what I have stated before in this thread. If there are any 'strings attached' or expectations on your part I think it's best you you state it all clearly now so that I know what I'm getting into, eg which strategies (or page/chapter numbers) are to be kept 'secret' and an acknowledgment that if some or all are already known to others (even if in a similar form) then we should all be free to discuss it. I would also prefer to deal anonymously, will pm you about it.

btw, MT- when I said you could build your reputation by posting more on ASF I didn't mean you have to post parts of your course (although that's good as well); you are welcome to contribute to threads generally as do other experienced posters here. I have personally found a number of your posts to be excellent although you don't post as frequently these days. I'm sure your knowledge would be appreciated, just as long as we don't get personal here on ASF a good debate is always welcome. I assume you already know of the advertising options if your prefer that to general posting.

Re: FREE COURSE!

hey sorry to all the older people i pissed off. Didn't think people would take that much offense to it,

anyway i really got one thing to say, you can get all this information for FREE, go to your public library or university library pick up some accounting and finance books go to the contents page and look for things that look interesting for you to read, hey i bet you will find all this info for FREEEEEEEE that moneytree is offering.


There is no secrets in this world, everything is written down in books.


YOU HAVE TO GET OFF YOUR ASS AND GO READ IT :p

For everyone that is a stupid go buy this book and waste 500$
If you need to buy the book you should not be investing money, your financial advisor should be doing it for you.

And if youi find the books at the university interesting you might want to send me 500$ instead. :) :)

I agree that you don't have to spend big bucks to learn stuff, especially at the start (but software, data and hardware can cost a bit), plenty of books in local libraries and cheap books at the bookshops; although some things aren't in the books and it helps to have a guiding hand on occasion, especially in the area of psychology and trade mgmt. A few of us here on ASF have posted some titles in the Beginners Forum for newbies (search using keywords like 'books'). Another thing that you need is time and patience, the markets will always be there, no rush.

You certainly shouldn't be wasting large amounts of your capital on learning stuff that is freely available. Can't really comment on MT's course in full but from some of the samples he's shared it looks similar to stuff in published books, but then similar doesn't mean identical and the purpose of the review is to see if it has something of value to add- guess I'll know if this arrangement works out.

Totally agree you need time and patience and the right starting capital,

I think a good start is $5000 to $7000, things get interesting with that amount of money, and you don;t need huge gains to make $$$$$. Plus brokerage doesn;t feel as though it is taking a large chunch of profits.

I can bet all my money that every single thing he has written in his book is freely available, as i said there is nothing secret in this world, everything is written in a book.

Even the psychology part aswell lol go look at the psychology books :p sure they have something on sharemarket and how humans react to loses and wins.
 
Re: FREE COURSE!

LoL also you can go to your local university and go sit in on lectures, some of you old people might want to do that since you got a lot of time on your hands LOL

just messing around people. The lectures are free ( if you aint a student ) no one will notice you there, and if someone asks you what you are doing just say you are an international or mature age student and your student number is

N43436234

or

S23356543
and they will leave you alone :p: :p:

lol ! :cautious: :banghead: :rolleyes:

So I guess all those medical researchers should stop wasting their time eh? What about inventors........I suppose everything has already been invented? Well geez........we are in for a boring decade, no new books, no new inventions.....I mean how can anything new be written if everything has already been written?

Perhaps you could back up your statement? How about sharing with us which book demonstrates the mechanics of a 'risk-free instalment div-strip'?
Or maybe you could tell us which book discusses the 'fold line' strategy? Or maybe the 'short interest' strategy? hell........I will be astounded if you can even describe one of em.

So, what is wrong with that. Sometimes that is a necessary tactic.
Isn't that how tip sheets work.
Huntley's, Int. investor, etc. etc.
Are you suggesting there isn't demand for them.

Im wondering why it is you continually stick your nose into matters which do not concern you, then step on others toes in some pathetic attempt to raise your own status.

I pity people like you. You suffer from such low self-esteem that you create conflict around you in a misguided attempt to establish some twisted sense of existence justification. Basicly, you subconsciously feel so worthless that you will do ANYTHING to make others notice you.

You think that you are some kind of riteous vigilante.....and this is what you use to justify your existence. You dont have anything of value to add, so you appoint yourself deputy and assume to judge and sentence. It would be funny if it wasnt so sad.

How on earth do you expect your standing in this community to ascend by attempting to make others look bad? Thats delusional.

Welcome to my ignore list.
 
Re: FREE COURSE!

Hi 123enen :)

If you go back and read my posts more closely you will see that I didn't say there was no demand so I'm not sure what point you are trying to make.

I just called it as I see it and if you have any verifiable numbers or other info that proves anything I said is incorrect in that extract or the rest of the post you quoted from then feel free to post it but I know you won't be able to. :)

In the mean time I will continue to post things as I see them here and anywhere else I see fit ;)

cheers

bullmarket :)
