[quote=pabloesqobar]Heh, I just read that ad. JP, it says the event is free. That is pretty standard for these types of events. They’ll ask you to sign up for their crap after you’re already there and caught up in the hype.

Also from the advertisement: “You’ll also learn the key to life mastery and the 3 elements to creating lasting change”. From a couple of 30-something house flippers.

It could be a fun event just for the comic relief factor. Knowing the key to life mastery could come in handy.[/quote]

Pablo: I’m pretty sure that Douglas Adams’ “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” contains the key to life mastery. Or, at the least, the meaning of life, which I think (according to the book) is 42.

Hope that helps.

On a more serious note, I did management and financial consulting for a number of years after I got out of the corporate rat race and was always mystified by the number of “gurus” and “life coaches” out there. In the main, they were wholly unqualified for the position and generally just spouted this unintelligible corporatespeak gibberish (which they had largely stolen from guys like Tom Peters and Tony Robbins).
