Recently I bought a Dean Graziosi real estate book. Something about finding local real estate deals. I am not expecting to become a real estate millionaire because I bought a $20 book. Lets be real on that. But who knows, it may start me on the path to becoming a millionaire, you just never know.

Unfortunately, when you buy a book that greatly implies that it is possible that you can become independently wealthy (at least on the infomercial), or a millionaire whichever comes first. Take a reality pill. This is a gateway purchase for them. Because they believe you to be interested, and often desperate, to make money. So sometimes shortly after your purchase, you can expect a phone call from an enthusiast young man or woman whose only purpose in life is to help you. "And how will they try and help me?" You may ask yourself. Quite easy, they will sell you the use of a Tutor, or some kind of mentor that will practically guarantee your success in whatever field this involves , No Promises and the Tutor will set you back usually $1,000 or more, the prices vary.

I got my call a few minutes ago. It was from some guy named Raul. He let me know that it was because of my book purchase. He started off asking why I purchased the book (a standard question). He moved the discussion to my work background, was I working now? What was my credit like? Do I have credit cards and if so are they maxed out? He asked if I was married (another standard casual question). Then he asked what kind of money I was used to making. he told me that he was just trying to get an overview as to my situation so that he could better determine my motivation to getting more involved in their program. After all motivated people are more interested in doing what it takes to get things done, Right? Also they want nothing better than to help some poor schmuck who purchased a $20 book. His questions varied from the standard questions to ones aimed at my money or my credit.

So now lets examine the conversation. Other than the standard questions the other questions are pretty much designed to determine if you can come up with the money to pay for the tutor. Which of course you absolutely have to have at this time in order to make any money at all. Even thou they can argue that at this point they are just trying to determine your ability to use your own credit to purchase real estate or your motivation if your motivation is monetary. Trust me the tutor purchase is coming up.

I can see where this is heading so I am purposely trying not to cooperate (LOL!). Heck when I think about it. I wasn't cooperating very much from the beginning because I knew what was happening. When he got to the point where he asked what kind of money I was used to making I told him I felt uncomfortable about giving out personal information on a COLD CALL ( a cold call usually involves a telemarketer calling you up with little more information than your name address and phone number). He informed me that this was not a cold call because he had my information in the beginning because of my book purchase. I informed him that he was little more than a voice on the phone whom I did not know before the call and I am uncomfortable with giving too much information to people whom I do not know. So he told me his age, and the age of his child and how much money he made and how much was on his credit limit. So I told him I was 26 years old, 6'3" 185 lbs. with washboard abs and due to collect a Billion Dollar inheritance. OK, OK, I didn't really tell him that. Any one that knows me, knows that it isn't true but he wouldn't. The point here is that he could have been lying to get my confidence and divulge personal information or of course he could have been telling me the truth. I wouldn't know the difference. After all, cold call or not, he is at least, a telemarketer trying to make a sell.

So I guess the moral of this story is this: Beware if you buy a $20 book to obtain information that could possibly, eventually make you money. Just remember that it is only a $20 book (sometimes more and sometimes less). You might eventually make some money using it and you will probably be contacted by a telemarketer wanting you help you out. Usually at $1,000 or more although not at first, they have to work up to it. Like all telemarketers do.

The only way I will believe that they want to help me is if Dean Graziosi himself comes to my door and offers to help me for free. Not a phone call either, it could be someone pretending to be Dean Graziosi. Trust me. Dean Graziosi will not do something charitable for me. You can take that to the Bank. But none the less it will have to come directly from Dean Graziosi himself not someone claiming to be one of his lackeys and believe you me, Dean ain't coming to my house, not to help some piss ant like me.

OK... I got a friend that invited me to a meeting. I could smell the term MLM (Multi Level Marketing) right away. First off let me tell you that I used to get into a different MLM business almost every month. The are all full of enthusiast people with undisputable proof how their company will work and soon I will be riding the Gravy Train to riches. However about 97% of all people that get into MLM business,,,,,,,,, Fail!!! (I did a Google search for this statistic) and I was no exception. You can only get burnt so many times before you learn to avoid the fire. The highest level execs are almost always linked to some business list like Forges, Global Billionaires, etc. This is thrown into your face to further entice you into believing that the company is going somewhere and you better get on board fast if you want an executive seat.

Any way whenever you are invited to a meeting that can make you money and the first thing they want you to do after you join up is to sign up your friends, etc. Just get up and leave. There is usually a sign up fee that you undoubtedly will never get back. This apparently is how they make the bulk of their money. From your sign up and the sign up of any of your friends (I hate to use the word friends because I could never do this to a friend) that you sign up, and their friends etc. this almost becomes a perpetual motion of cash flow out of your pockets and into the pockets of the company.

OK, now that I have thoroughly slammed MLM companies. Lets get back to the Scalar Energy. I was recently invited to an MLM meeting for some company called FusionExcel. Where they have a product that somehow negates bad radiation that your body absorbs without your knowledge Like Microwave radiation from your microwave, radiation from cell phones and a bunch of other sources and types that our modern age is polluting us with. All sounds pretty exciting at this point during the meeting. Lucky for us that they happen to be able to make pendants, watches, and Bracelets from a natural substance that produces Scalar Energy that IMMEDIATELY negates these bad radiations.

Most MLM companies start off with a video then a pep talk then in some cases a Demo (Fusion Excel gave a demo).

From this point I will be concentration on the company Fusion Excel and its product(s)

At this point they do a demonstration so that you can see for yourself how this works and not just works but works immediately. They do a strength test, a balance test, a flexibility test. I believe that there were a couple more. Keep in mind that these are just the demo test that I got to see. I went online and saw some different test as well. With each test and the subsequent dramatic results the demonstrator and most of the audience worked themselves into a frenzy. By the end of the session almost everyone is in a fever pitch and everything is simply astounding. Your heart is beating heavily in your chest and you can hardly hold yourself back from pulling out your check book.

I forced myself to hold back. after exiting the meeting I stopped and talked with the person that invited me. I asked if he had a pendant. Of course he did. I wanted to try a balancing test of my own. Being a Martial Artist I held out a side kick and checked my self for balance. First without the Pendants powers then with. There was absolutely no difference as far as I could tell. So what does this mean to me. Lets think of this in terms of Magic. Did David Copperfield really make the Stature of Liberty disappear of did he make us think he made it disappear. Here is something to remember. The person that controls the test often controls the outcome. If during their balance test (not mine) They had you hold arm straight out from your body and on one leg. While they pushed your arm down and you lose your balance, Then after using the Pendant they didn't just push you down but what if they pushed you more towards your balancing leg. Wouldn't that kind of stabilize your balance. Whoa! what a concept.

Any one with a brain, and a half cup of knowledge on Kinesiology and or Bio Mechanics would be able to pick apart this demonstration. Kind of like having knowledge on several magic tricks. Once you get the flow it is easy to figure out the next trick. Actually the 40 plus years I have spent learning Martial Arts has given me more than enough knowledge in Kinesiology and Bio Mechanics to see the way some of these Demos work. . As a matter of fact it would be difficult for me not to see it.

During the meeting they gave us examples of numerous testimonials on the healing effects of the pendant. While searching online I found many more. A vast majority of these can be contributed to the Placebo effect. Or if you know "The Secret" it would be "the power of Positive Thinking". Only just using the Pendant to accept all of the credit when the person themselves believed hard enough for the miracle to happen.

I cannot say positively that the people doing this demo were charlatans trying to fleece an unsuspecting public. Or that they were mindless puppets following something they wanted to believe in, or that this product truly works and I have yet to make that conclusion. I am only saying that the Demo I saw could have been deceiving and orchestrated in order to elicit a positive response in order to get people to sign up and pay the salaries of the top people. OR This could be the real McCoy, one of Gods gifts to mankind. Remember if you read the Bible. God put a cure on earth for every disease. Many we know about, many we don't know about and many are being kept from us by the AMA (American Medical Association) because there is more money in treating symptoms than in curing. How many people that had a heart bypass were told about Chelation or ECP ( External Counter-Pulsation ) first. I intend to save up and get the money to buy a Pendant and try it out. There is a 2 week money back Guarantee so I would have nothing to lose. I could only gain if really works.
