Has anyone ever heard of anyone studying real estate using the Donald Trump method having made a million per the Learning Annex claim (see below)? Or does the following just sound a lot like they are exploiting Trump’s name, er, for a price? (obviously)

Not everyone at that event will get to see Trump in the flesh. While a weekend pass to the expo can be had for as little as $29, that price does not include keynote speeches by Trump or Robert (Rich Dad, Poor Dad) Kiyosaki, which cost $149, or $499 for a VIP pass.

At the online university, presumably you won't get to see Trump either--that's the nature of online education. But you will get a certificate with his name and yours on the same piece of paper for just $300 per course, which is more than the price of a Learning Annex weekend (unless you are determined to be a VIP), but much less than a Trump condominium.

Learning Annex/Donald Trump Real Estate Expo is Hot!

25,000 Expected for Superstar Wealth Builder Donald Trump

How hot is Real Estate?

So hot that 20,000 people showed up last fall in New York to attend the Learning Annex RealEstate Wealth Expo to learn from the very best: Donald Trump.

So hot that an even bigger crowd (25,000) is expected when Mr. Trump will teach in Los Angeles on April 30th and May 1st 2005. With prices rising nearly every day, and home values increasing by as much as $100,000 a month throughout Southern California, Real Estate investing has reached a fever pitch.

According the Learning Annex President and Founder Bill Zanker, “There has never been a more clear-cut opportunity to learn how to make big-time money in Real Estate. Many of the students who attended the New York event are now millionaires – and the West Coast real estate market is actually even stronger than the East Coast! No one talks about sex anymore; Real Estate is the new aphrodisiac.”

This is a weekend not to be missed. A very special appearance by the #1 peak performance success coach, Tony Robbins will open up the 2 day weekend. Other keynotes include Rich Dad Poor Dad bestselling author Robert Kiyosaki, mega-entrepreneur Russell Simmons, Trading Spaces designer Doug Wilson and the ultimate session with Mr. Trump himself!

Over 70 other seminars from the leading Real Estate experts in the country will teach everything from foreclosures and abandoned properties to quick turn real estate and negotiation tips! With over 100 exhibitors from brokers, lenders, and investors on hand, there is no doubt that many deals will get done on the expo floor.

Thanks for the reference. I scanned the Trump parts of the reviews and found them interesting. Anyone else have any nominations?

He started an airline and then some Chinese guy got beat up and now he's President.

How to become a millionaire the Trump way:

Step 1: have your dad lend you a million dollars.

Ta-da! Easy. Stop being poor and just do it, lazy losers.
 
I understand that there are several investment firms that have algorithms that decipher The Hair's tweets and when he speaks negatively about a company the program places an order to short that company's shares. That may be the new Trump method.

Borrow money to invest in a casino

Use the borrowed money to pay yourself a "(h)uge" salary

Have the casino declare bankruptcy

Use the loss on the bankruptcy as a tax credit to offset the profit you make off the next casino you borrow money to invest in.

No idea, but fwiw a lot of the pre-crash "make a million in RE" claims, were based on adding up all the RE assets you have title to, and ignoring all the mortgage debt you owe (and sometimes ignoring the market value of the assets). $1M isn't a lot of commercial RE.
