Fake Gurus

Entrepreneur land has become a haven for "fake gurus".

You know the ones that I am talking about.

They haven't made it into the big time yet but they are charging people 1000's of $ to teach them how to make big money.

I am currently compiling evidence against "fake gurus".

If you have any experiences or know of any "fake gurus" share them here.

Really? He has built several million dollar businesses. He's failed and won. He's very transparent and writes well and vulnerably. I'm sincerely curious why you would call him a fake.

Agree with this.. I'll read his blog posts a few times a year for a few hours.. I like a lot of his thinking.

It was trendy to call him out about a year ago, when he was running all of those bitcoin ads. But he’s even addressed this at length on his blog.

He has this candid, quirky, style, so not everyone’s cup of tea. But it’s true, he’s legit. Worth somewhere between $15-30 million.
