    This just in via PM: "Laurent Bernut" offered github source code in his $399 course without attribution!

    Just a heads-up, the proper spelling is "Daniel Shporin" - SHP not SPH. He appears on several of Scott's videos so he should be considered a (literal) partner in crime.

    Laurent may have his own issues, but he deserves his own thread since he's not working directly with Scott.

    Bernut chimed in. I don’t know his connection with Scott but he is selling open source code written by another and without attribution.

    I never understood this thread from the beginning. If I had purchased a course from a guy months ago and found it really hard to follow, why would I purchase anything else?

    If I already had a winning system, why would I pay $250 for an unverified one? If I just liked to learn more and was willing to risk throwing away half of a half of a thousand bucks just to do so, what do I care if the information is available for free later on? If $250 was no big deal to me then, why would it be such a big deal to me now?

    Most “share my system for free” offers are just vague principles, concepts, or frameworks from the system anyway and you have to pay to get the nuts and bolts. It sounds like this offer was simply one more of the same, so if I was actually given the nuts and bolts, as crummy as they might be, what’s my beef?

    If I have no beef, but simply didn't like the way the guy spoke to me, the LAST thing I'm going to do is continue interacting with him. Rather, I'm going to go with the naturally programmed human response that compels me to seek to maintain pleasure and end pain, and get as far away from the guy as I possibly can—not return to him repeatedly for more of the same.

    If the only way I can find relief from my pain is for him to apologize to me, I've probably given the guy WAY too much power over my life.

  9. The thing that says this guy is a scam more than anything was I saw one of his videos where he filmed from his bedroom. To be clear, I can relate to the sparse, small bedroom due to him having been in jail. You get mentally fucked.

    But... he has, what looks like Ikea furniture. Not even sure he has an actual bed frame.

    So def a scam, but a well arranged scam. And since he has been in and out of jail for a long time, he probably knows how to scam enough to stay out of trouble this time.

  10. No most definitely not good customer service! But made me laugh.
    Also kinda funny someone gets so upset by a stranger on the internet for typed words.
    Maybe I'm too accustomed to it.
    But no, shouldn't ever speak to customers like that, even IF they deserve it.
