How I 4Xed my investment and why it won’t likely work for you.

Victor wants to know how to avoid the ‘get rich quick’ mentality that is so often advertised.

Firstly though, I’m going to tell you about the ‘get rich quick’ scheme that I bought into and how I quadrupled my investment in under a year.

That’s not a joke. It’s real and I’m also going to share how most other people would not have had the same results.

Then, the low-risk way to build your fortunes. Incrementalism.

The beginning of the end for the Post-Secondary Education Industry

I'm on record many times over for saying publicly that I believe that in 2025 half the universities in the world will be closed and bankrupt.  Education is moving online and people are slowly becoming aware that they don't have to take on huge debts in order to learn something.

Gathering people together in order to transmit information verbally is a 5000 year old technology.  The only reason its still around is because governments subsidize the bill by funding universities and providing loans to students.

The fact is, you can learn what you need to for FREE.

Visit this site: http://www.nopaymba.com/ and learn about one woman's journey to replicate an Ivy League MBA program for free online with class content from... Ivy League schools for the most part.  All free.

"If everything goes according to plan, Laurie Pickard will earn her MBA in three years for less than $1,000. She'll take classes from Harvard, Wharton, and Yale, among other top-tier schools. And she'll tackle it all while keeping her full-time job. She'll accomplish all of this from Kigali, Rwanda. It sounds too good to be true. But Pickard, 32, is determined to pull it off. If successful, she'll arguably be the first person in the world to cobble together an MBA program from massive open online courses (MOOCs), free or low-cost classes accessible to anyone with Internet access."

[VIDEO] Dead Capital in a business and buying a job.

In this video, I discuss the idea of 'killing' capital by putting it into a business and getting no return on the money.

I also address the topic of 'buying' a job through small business acquisition and how this compares to 'investing' in education.

I'm still away on vacation in the states.  The easiest way to catch up on my video content this long weekend is to watch my YouTube playlists.  Depending on your platform, you could literally just sit there and probably watch me for hours.

Enjoy the long weekend.

Adult education concepts

I had the great pleasure of attending a workshop on how to integrate adult learning principles into classroom training sessions.  It was put on by the organizers of www.profitlearn.com for whom I do two different seminars.  One on buying existing businesses and one on preparing for or choosing a business succession route.

What struck me was that many of the principles which allow adults to learn better:

• accountability and responsibility
• ability to share
• understanding of real-world circumstances and examples
• acknowledgement that the instructor was an expert

... probably would have allowed me to learn better as a teenager as well.

The principles get adopted in the training room with such tactics as allowing participants to share their experience on the topics, breaking up into groups so that people can share more readily with each other, giving participants a chance to stand up and move around every half-hour or so, listening to real life examples via stories and testing knowledge through demonstration, rather than taking tests.

So what makes 'adult learning' so different from 'teenage learning?'

Adults can stand up and walk out if they don't like it and choose to not pay for more courses.  That's it.

It's fascinating that in the free market world of adult education, teachers are always trying to do a better job to please the customer.  In this case the individuals or companies who pay for training in an effort to get better skills or achieve goals and desired outcomes.

In public education, it doesn't matter what the teachers do.  The tax dollars keep flowing because there is no choice in the matter.

Maybe its time people realized that if monopolies are bad in business, maybe they're also bad in education.

Just my thoughts.

P.S. A very heartfelt apology goes out to people who have to pay taxes for schools they don't use because I decided to have children.
