    Another article says his net worth is 100m, so that would mean he might have 1.2b in debt but 1.3b in assets.

    I’m not sure that suggests he’s a scammer on the surface.

      Motivational speakers that claim to hold the keys to success, you just have to want it bad enough, are scammers. Charging people $35 for a hardcover, or $400 for a ticket to see you speak worthless platitudes is definitely a form of scam.

        This is what makes him rich. Either we give him growth money or we give him test money. Test money being money he can gamble away because it comes free. Bank any profit and ask for more free money.
