I found this site:http://www.therichjerk.com/
I'm pretty skeptical, and I'm sure it doesnt work instantly, like he claims, but I am curious. So my question here is if I can trust it when he says he'll give you your money back after 45 days if you dont like it.
I'm not trying to advertise it, and I'm not looking for peoples opinions on whether or not it will work. I just want to know if I can trust the refund, because I AM curious.

A bunch of malarky if you ask me. These are the commercials you see on TV where it says "Not typical results", similar to the lady that lost 150lbs on some nutradiet system. A waste of your time if you ask me. If you read the fine print they say there is no guarantee you'll do well.

He probably got rich from all the gullible people buying his ebook for $97.

If it looks too good to be true, it most likely is.

Quote from the site, "I make several million dollars every year on the internet, doing almost nothing."
Hmm. If millions of dollars could be made doing nothing, everybody would be making millions of dollars.
TANSTAAFL!

I smell pyramid scheme. The only way to get rich is hard work. Want to get rich go to law school or med school. Don't trust some silly web site. I think Cricket hit the nail on the head; he makes money from people buying his junk. I really just looks like a joke to me.

It makes no sense for a person so (supposedly) wealthy to work so hard to write an ad like that which will make him no money. He has absolutely no motivation to do you a favor. Its a classic scam.
Most people are not guillable enuough to fall for it but then there are those few individuals with less than average intelligence which keep creeps like this guy in business.

I just want to clarify that I AM pretty sure that its not going to be as easy as he says, if it even works at all. But I'm curious to see what it says.

Based on this (http://www.ezinearticles.com/?The-Rich-Jerk---A-Study-in-Anti-Marketing&id=63100), it sounds like a collection of info on setting up affiliate sites, marketing, using ad programs, and selling on ebay.

I have not read his book and it is probably crap but it is possible to make money without hard work.
The problem is that by the time everybody knows about it, it's no longer possible.
Theoretically, he might be a really successful man who was approached by another guy with the intent of making money from marketing him.
I'm sure that if a book comes out "make millions in real estate - by donald trump" it will not be trump sitting around for a year typing. somebody will study him (or not) and write the book for him (and get rich).
I'm pretty sure that had I had the kahunas to open up a porn site when i first considered it, i'd be filthy rich now.

When this jerk gets desperate he will show up in your town at the Airport Holiday Inn selling books and CD's. They use the Airport Holiday Inn so they can make a quick escape when the village idiots show up with pitchforks and shovels after realizing that they have been scammed for $995.00 each.

I think that is what people are trying to say. The info is not accurate or correct for that matter. This is not some thing new in the world. Get rich schemes have been around for years. Look up Amway you will learn alot about working for nothing, but making tons.

I just got the e-book (for free, so you I dont need anyone telling me I wasted money. I'm also not going to say who gave it to me, because if he wanted a bunch of people asking him for it, he would have told me he'd give it to me in this thread, rather than private message), and so far it seems like it has good info. What he's saying does make sense, although it doesnt sound like it will make me a billion dollars overnight, or whatever he said, which is exactly what I didnt expect it to do. Its not total BS though, it is worth reading, so all of you who said its a total scam are incorrect.
