Real Estate Wealth Expo

Posted on July 2, 2007 - Filed Under Rant |

I refuse.

I plain flat-out refuse.

There are two words I refuse to write, for fear that LordGoogle will forever associate my journal with This Person.  From here on out she will be called This Person.

The Learning Annex puts on Real Estate Wealth Expos which I have no desire to attend.  I see this as nothing more than way for people to give money to those who are already extremely wealthy.  Donald Trump personally invited me to hear himself Junior speak. 

This Person has been offered $1 million to speak at one of those expos.

The excuse being used to hire This Person is simple if not stunning; She is good at building a brand.  For some reason, which escapes me, This Person is being exulted as some kind of entrepreneurial genius.

Um . . . what?  Has there been a product or a brand This Person has created which just exploded off the shelves?  Has there been some revolutionary service she created which has dwarfed the hotel chain of her family’s legacy?

I digress.

The duration of This Person’s speaking is one hour.  That’s probably a good thing.  Anything more and the entire room would start seeing prancing unicorns and dancing bunnies.

Maybe some of you are saying "Oh Clifford, you’re just jealous.  You wish you had her money, her looks, her plastic surgeon.  I think she’s brilliant."

Then go to the seminar.  Please please pretty please with sugar on top go to her seminar and tell me how it went.  As a matter of fact, I’ll even help you.

Here’s my best guess at the possible topics which will be covered.

Creating buzz: How to film and use your home-made sex tapes to build your brand on the world wide internet.

Clever like a rock:  Being dumb and stupid is actually clever.  Simple exercises to improve your ‘dumbness’

Negotiation Tactics:  When things aren’t going your way in a negotiation, just stand up and scream "That’s not fair!  MOM!!"

Every day this week, between 30 and 50 flies have greeted me when returning home.

    Cliff,
    I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiment about that idiot (however smart she may actually be.)

    The sight (and sound) of her should be banned from our collective senses because clearly she is influencing the certified idiots (at least in America) to follow her lead.

    I swear, if I see one more 20-something bimbo walking around here in the local mall with a freaking Chihuahua thinking she’s cool…..I’m gonna have to slap her.

    Was that mean? :)
