Has anyone attended this? I got free tics and went today. I thought is was cool to see Giuliani, Colin Powell and Susie Orman (I know I butchered the spelling) speak but other than that some of the investing advice pissed me off. If you have seen it let me know what you though about it so I don't keep rambling on about it by myself.

What's not to like, Zig Ziglar's the man. I actually didnt get anyone special(like you listed) at mine, but it helped me get into stocks.

I'm curious what pissed you off really? We've got the program(not enough time in the day though) and we've been happy so far.

It sucked for us because Zig didn't even show up for our seminar. You are talking about the stock program that uses little green and red arrows to indicate buy and sell signals right? Well, the person who was selling the tool made investing sound much easier than it is. He was discussing covered calls to a crowd that contained people who didn't know what a FICO score is. He was a great salesman, but it is easy to sell a tool and look at stocks that have performed well, picking the stocks that will perform well is a much much more difficult thing. Have you used the tool much, and did you go to the workshops for it? Be very careful as to how much trust you put into that program, I would seriously statrt small if you have no other trading history. Basically I am pissed because the guy took advantage of people who want to make money (which is everyone). But let me know how it goes/is going.

5280HighButter, it is a decent program, but do I follow the arrows like I'm told to? No. I pretty much just use it for organization. I do agree though, he made it sound too easy to make "500% a year!". Picking a decent stock is not hard. Picking one that you buy and sell over weekly periods and dont hold onto, that's a bit harder.
