I didn't, anywhere in the post, review the actual service they are offering, nor was it simply a matter of money.

I think this is why they have the interview to screen people like you out why give a negative review for a course or coaching you've NEVER had if it's not for you move on.

He made me feel special that there was a limited space, he wanted to make sure we would be a good match, asked me about my credit card limit and so on with the same basic style you mentioned. We set up for an "Interview" for today, and I was all excited for it. Last night I told my dad about and he was telling me that it seemed strange that they were trying become my "friend" so early on and that money was probably the big motivator. Of course I didn't want to believe him but then I decided to look online and see what kind of experiences people have had. I was very disappointing to come across so many blogs and reviews such as this one. I found very little positive feedback from the rich dad programs, and found outrages pricing for those programs. Some one even said they spent $30k on their programs and learned almost nothing! (not sure if that was true but i found a few like that.) After reading these review I decided that I just wasn't going to even pick up the phone when Jeff called because I didn't want to be talked into a deal. I didn't know if I made the right decision but I feel it was the best one after reading all these negative reviews about the coaching. Thank you for your story it may have saved me quite a bit of money. So I went to a rich dad seminar last months and yesterday I had that exact same interview with a guy named Jeff.

I think it's time to move on to more than just an amway salesman anyways. Most of his books are always so vague and repeat the same cliches over and over anyways, I was starting to get tired of it. This was just the nail in the coffin. I was really turned off by rich dad’s products after this. I think it’s time to move on to more than just an amway salesman anyways.

The lady I talked to was extremely manipulative and used all the standard cliche taboo tactics of the sales process. I was really excited and ready to pay but wanted to let all the new info settle for a few days first. I was quoted 6200 dollars for my coaching. She tried to make me feel guilty for saying that if I felt the program was a good match for me I would be willing to start today and at the end saying I wanted to think about the decision more. She told me I wasn't being true to my agreement and that she questioned my integrity throughout the whole interview. Unbelievable!!!!
