Since they willing to pay thousands of dollars to attend seminars, why not you collect thousands of dollars from them, and start your own seminar just for them? Then they pay for your time, and you will be very sure that the seminar they will be attending will worth every of their cents.
i have enough of teaching friends already.
After teach liao, lose money come and find me with black face. Then no more friendship. Very sensitive.
I think the members at this forum are not regularly attending any seminars and cannot give you any feedback.
You should go to one of the advertised seminars and ask the guys sitting next to you which other seminars they have attended and if helpful for learning to invest.

I rather not be their teacher.....
let someone more qualified teach better....
If you recommend any seminars, and at the end still lose money, will they blame you?
And if you happen to find any seminars that the attendents won't lose money in stock trading/investing after attending, let me know too.
Attending a seminar can help the investor understand how to read company accounts and how to make a valuation of what the share may be worth. Another type of seminar may teach charting of share price movement and timing of entry and exits.
But choosing which company shares to buy may be a different choice by different persons and success should not be linked to attending any seminar.

A good seminar on stocks shouldn't cost more than $100 to attend. Always felt sorry for those who shelled out thousands of dollars to attend such seminars, when there is so much info for free in the library, Value Buddies and in the internet.

Hi soros
So do you think paying $65 for a 3-hrs talk will improve one's stock picking skill? Or is this a preclude to an upsell of his +$2K course which he (Spencer) will tell you everything only if you sign up for it? The 3-hrs talk is only an introduction?

Not discouraging anyone to sign up for anything they find worthwhile but I think before you sign up, go read up on the trainer's credentials and background. From what I know, he was questioned on how he calculated his portfolio returns and his response was that he uses rolling average monthly returns to calculate his annual projected ROI which means results can easily be skewed if the trade amounts are small in a given month and yet generate good profits for that particular month. This is very unusual to say the least. He also made the claim after getting his CFTe certification that it is like the "CFA of TA" then went on to describe on his website what CFTe is:
"Well, for starters, it is recognised internationally in 26 countries, and it is not easy to achieve, hence it is much more “rare” than the more common CFA." (Screenshot attached as proof)
When he was asked on his comments section for his trading track record at the prop fund he said he worked in, he said it is confidential.
Just sharing some facts. I leave it to you guys to judge for yourself.
