Kevin Trudeau

I caight part of an informercial about his latest book Debt Cures They Don’t Want You To Know About, and man, can that guy sell or what???

Now I know he has a rep as a snake oil salesman, but have any of you bought any of his stuff and what did you think?

Thanks

Q

Years ago I bought his Mega Memory book/tapes. It’s a fairly good compendium of a lot of memory strategies. I still use some of the techniques. If he hadn’t strayed into the health arena, I might still respect him.

I have since learned that most (if not all) of the memory techniques he teaches are old and (by some) well known, but he did package and sell them well.

I’ve picked up three of his books at garage sales. He says his weight loss plan is easy, but the book informs you that you have to take injections of a hormone not licensed in the USA, and eat only 500 calories a day. The maintenance plan has over 70 daily items to follow! Easy my ass.

I love this sentence: After following my weight loss plan you will be able to east almost everything you want to eat (with some exceptions).

He’s an absolute scumbag, liar, and cheat. If there were any justice, he’d be locked up for the rest of his life for scamming gullible idiots.

I must STRONGLY protest your language here. It is far, far too mild and does not include any suggestion that, during his incarceration, he be repeatedly and violently sodomized by a phallus-wielding Ann Coulter (his cellmate, not his jailor). He should also be forced to watch Coulter shower and to dry her off afterwards.

The FTC loves him. Go to FTC.gov and read up on him. He is job security for a number of people there.

Or google “kevin trudeau ftc” and grab a big cup of coffee and enjoy.

Yeah, the guy has good charisma, but he looks like a weasel. He draws you in, but after five minutes of listening to him spew his bullshit, your urge to kill starts to rise.

It’s a shame he’s conned so many people into buying his book. I’d rather give my money to those two little midgets who peddle their real estate selling techniques. They crack me up.

Heh, my dad got those tapes when I was a kid, and we listened to them on a long, long car trip. One is tree and elephant.
