Same for me, but with CJ
Might've been an accident
But I could do a whole thread on why Chris and 95% of his squad are varying levels of sleazy
- Low value products
- Deceptive marketing
- History of terrible customer service
- Etc
I won't cuz it'd be a waste of my time https://twitter.com/CoachJoeHart/status/1304431719211302912

Alright, fine, I'll waste my time 
But let's keep this positive
Will focus mostly on consumer protection
Here are 7 uncomfortable online marketing truths...

1. If You Think It Might Be Sponsored, It Is
99% of people who get a blog posts in Forbes or Yahoo Finance paid for it
99% of people who get a shoutout from a big IG page paid for it
And that's fine, but a lot of marketers don't disclose and act like it's all organic

2. Flex Marketing Can Turn Toxic
Every online marketer flexes
Numbers attract crowds, crowds buy you shit
But when you go too far down the flex marketing hole
It becomes toxic
Making your audience yearn for big money every single day is harmful

3. Flex Marketing Is Often Deceptive
We've all seen the big revenue screenshots
Very few show us their expenses too
And some, the worst of the worst, pretend like they're not buying ads at all (or they'll just refuse to talk about it)

4. You Will Not Make Money Trading
Okay, maybe you will
Something like 1/20 people turn this "side hustle" into a real income
But if you have low capital to start (something like under $25K), you have roughly no chance
A gumroad course won't change that

5. Regular Stock Investing Is Pretty Simple
If you're not gonna trade, investing really isn't complicated at all
A $10-25 book or free resources will give you everything you need
95% of people are better off just buying and holding index funds, which couldn't be simpler

6. Marketers Use The "Prodigal Student" Hoax
This is one I've never seen talked about
Basically, you choose the 1/1000 outlier student, then use their results to sell your product
Marketers even do this with students they mentor, when mentoring isn't part of the main package

7. The Tactics Are Often Not Replicable
Many products are built off a "proof of concept", not real, lasting success
Also, your guru might have something you don't have, which is the key to their success, which they can't teach you (huge cash flow from book sales, for example)
