Hey Edgar
>Give me a break. This guy is probably the biggest promoter of all of
these scam artists. And the person who authors the article does not need to
own a mutal fund. That is a ridiculous statement (You don't need to cheat on
your wife to know what Bill Clinton is doing). All the author knows is
that this guy's methods are pure hype.
But, good for Ken; he's making more money than I am. But that still
does not make him legit.
I would not waste my dollars on his systems, but I have yet to hear one
person say that Roberts
courses, books, etc are of any value at all. Not one person!!!
I have never taken his course. This is my opinion based solely on what
I have heard over the years about him.
