I'm reading everything written about Rich in the prior posting.  I can attest to many facts in that posting.  I can also add Rich made it A habit of kiting checks when he fell short on cash.  He bounced several payroll checks cheating his employees of their hard earned salary.  I had to file a claim with the state to force Rich to give me my payroll.  if I had researched him beforehand, I would have never agreed to work for him.   Do not do business with this man.  He is not to be trusted

Richard Bernstein is not to be trusted. He kites checks to cover his expenses. Then when the checks start bouncing, he is forced to get money from any source to keep from getting in trouble. Felons are not supposed to be knowingly writing bad checks. His training sessions are nothing but sitting in a room listening to him talk about how wonderful he is. When in fact he nothing more then a rip off artist that stole money from a couple and was forced to pay back restitution. Don't let the victim act fool you

I am shocked to see this complaint and how inaccurate it is. It shows the writer is only out to hurt Rich Bernstein and John Gray when nothing short of "life Changing" is how everyone describes the Mars Venus Coach training. If this person attending the training they would know that it is not 3 days, they would know that there is no up selling and they would know that Rich does not do the training himself but a team of professional trainers conduct the classes and they are 15 hour days, so no one is rushed through anything.

Even the price is wrong. The materials and the process the coaches are trained to conduct are copy write 2010 as Mars Venus Coaching did not even exist in the 90's so outdated materials is simply not true. Finally the person represents themself as a coach in Orlando Florida where our finest coach is in that territory and they even include a picture of a coach in another country. Wow, couldn't even do their investigation before posting such negative material obviously with the only intent but to hurt.

You even state that you've been asked to come back and train new coaches but If you are not doing well in your business then you would not be asked to train anyone. There would be coaches helping you achieve the success you deserve as all the coaches work together. Same thing happened when, obviously the same person, complained about the executive training where they said they represented a Bank in Las Vegas and could not get returned calls. After investigation, it was found that no such account existed and no such calls were ever made.

When the Corporate counsel asked  them to call her directly to resolve the matter, they just proceeded to attack her personally. How childish a way to make themselves feel better and hurt such a life changing business that doesn't hurt anyone and just empowers the people involved. Then the personal attach on Rich as far as "hitting on her", so disgusting, not even worth commenting. If in fact you attending the training and you don't feel you got your monies worth, please call the Corporate offices directly and resolve personally.
