The Truth About Ty Hicks - Is He For Real? or a Swindler?

Why You Should Buy This Book:If you are really serious about your financial health, here is someone who not only has done the things he teaches you, but who is actually there to help you when you need answers to questions, or individual help.If you know anything at all about the usual "courses" and "seminars"....for getting rich in real estate, etc... you know that what happens when you buy them, no matter the quality (or lack of quality!) of the information you are given, you are either left to "sink or swim" or your questions are "answered" by a group of people hired by the course or seminar business to do customer service. Sometimes you are allowed to question the "big guy", but even then, it is usually a "stand-in-line-after-the-lecture" deal. IWS is different, because Ty Hicks is different.Tyler G. Hicks is a mulit-millionaire; a NewYork kind of guy: he talks fast, talks plain, and doesn't like wasting time.I recently saw him criticized by some skeptic who called Ty and insisted on being given "proof" that what Ty teaches "really works". The man was upset because Ty did not want to play that game. But notice: the man WAS ABLE to get Ty Hicks on the phone. That is because, when you call Ty Hicks, you do not get a customer service clerk, or even a secretary... you get Ty Hicks! And Ty did not refuse to help the man make money; Ty refused to waste time "proving" ..for free... that what he has successfully done for over 30 years DOES in fact, work. I suspect the reason Ty reacted that way is because if the man had done his homework at all, he would know that what Ty teaches works. A better thing to do would have been to call Mr. Hicks and ask a REAL QUESTION. I'm sure Mr. Hicks would have helped him beyond his wildest dreams.I know, because Mr. Hicks helped me, many years ago. At that time, skeptics surrounding me claimed Mr. Hicks would never talk to me, and that I was a fool to even try. Because I was a VERY POOR mother with a bunch of kids; I had zero to offer Mr. Hicks. However, I had bought one of his books and a one year subscription to his newsletter. I had decided to try and find a mentor from the many authors I had read, so I took a chance and called. Mr. Hicks. Imagine my shock when Mr. Hicks himself answered the phone! When it became obvious that Mr. Hicks not only would talk to me, but encouraged me to call him back when I needed help....and then DID HELP ME, the skeptics changed their tune to claiming Mr. Hicks was "only trying to make money off of me". At the time I found that hysterically funny. I pointed out that if that were his plan, he wasn't very bright...because at that point, Mr. Hicks was possibly earning pennies an hour ..in book royalties...counseling me! Everything Mr. Hicks did was helpful and ethical and logical. He is an incredibly wonderful person.When I called Mr. Hicks, I had actually been on welfare (put on welfare at the insistance of my husband, who then abandoned his kids)...and was
