Over the past few years the financial education industry seems to have gotten a bad name. Unfortunately many investment seminars have been run by less than heroic people who have simply been looking to scam people for their money. This is very unfortunate because it alienates the general public from investing and more importantly from gaining a financial education. Nobody likes to be scammed, it makes you feel stupid and you resent the person or thing that did that to you.
