Darren Winters – the stockmarket’s greatest Charlatan – part 1

More:

Darren Winters claims to be the UK’s top financial trainer and to have assisted over 400,000 people learn about the stockmarket. Yet most reputable financial companies including ADVFN and ourselves refuse to have anything to do with him, viewing him as an utter charlatan. Having spoken at length to a former employee of his I shall over the course of two articles explain why you should have nothing to do with this man or with any media organisation that takes his cash to allow him to peddle his snake oil to its customers. Only unprincipled scumbags deal with Winters taking his cash to allow their customers to get screwed.

according to the Guardian in 2003 Winters is so special he has two birthdays, just like the Queen. March 3 1972/73. What a man. But, to be fair, at just £3100 for a weekend course that will net worth you millions, it’s a no brainer…lol

Again, rather than charge £3100 for a weekend course why not just require those who’ve attended and completed it to pay a small percentage of what they make through trading until it’s settled? Surely it could be made legally enforceable. Wouldn’t take long If some of the claims made are remotely justified!

I have loads of email on Get rich courses and some am really well written. I would never pay money to learn to trade because that money as gone before the market opens.:)

Its funny how they want to hold darren mistakes infant of him and his past failures. Mr trump been bankrupt 3 times yet he one the most top real estate guys today. I just came back from Darren course and truthfully it was mind blow he gave out so much. What people don’t understand first is trading is 60 – 70% about psychology and being about to have the right mindset.

Second why won’t darren teach people wanting to learn trading? If he refused ppl would say his mean and greedy. Also if you could make about 15 – 20 grand from today days of teaching most people would and then use that to trade.

Anyway If your 100% serious about trading attend one his 2 days course for about £200, Its more then worth what you learn and also get 2 booklets and DVDs to take home. IT WILL BLOW YOUR MIND.. money more then will spent that including train fair and lunch etc….
