Background informationmy husband is a Marine stationed at Camp Pendleton, Ca. He is getting out of the corps and wanted something that would support our family. So he decided that this seminar would be informative and best of yet it was FREE!
So later on that evening we received a phone call about the program. Brian had told me that is was about $8,000. It was a lot of money that we didnt have. So the salesman sweet talked both my husband and I. He said that he couldnt sell it to us until I was on board with my husband. So in Brians support I said yes. Then the price jumped from $8,000 to $16,000 for the tuition and $99 for the supplies.
I got sick to my stomach thinking about the money that we didnt have. We were told that we had to put the money on credit cards. Plus he said that we couldnt get the program until we had $10,000 of open credit. The salesman assured me that if we didnt double our money within a year they would pay for our tuition. So I took him up on his offer. We did our weekly meetings with the coach and also spent hours walking through potential money makers. We had to spend a certain amount of hours a week on this program. If it didnt work, we would get a full refund and show the effort we put into it.
So all in all my husband and I couldnt pay our bills because of debt we developed with this company. I moved to Ohio and my husband stayed on Camp Pendleton. We have a two year old, as well, that was thrown in the middle of our shambles. I fought and fought with this company about getting our money back. It was a joke, I was told that because we didnt put in our 30 offers that we didnt meet the criteria of a refund. My husband and I have been separated for almost a year (only to pay for bills), my son hasnt seen his daddy in almost a year, and we still cant seem to put a dent into this debt.
I have gone to others for advice about this company until I came across this today. We have been fighting with this company almost a year now. I explained to the company that we couldnt put in our offers due to the amount of debt we are in. As well of the fact that my husband and I no longer live in the same state. I believe that we were put back about $20,000 all together, not including the 28% interest we are paying on our credit cards. This has been a costly mistake as well as a wedge between our family.
Please research this company before anyone tries to sale you on it. Yes the sales pitch is great!! The promises seem awesome and flawless. I am still trying to get what was promised to us.

I was also injured physically and mentally by NRI and spent two visits in the hospital over the past two years for more than 2 weeks. If you want to help us buy back our 3 homes from the banks for now more than $200,000. Just give the money to them and take the homes. We will remain injured but at least the banks will get their money back. If you really want to be nice pay some to our bankrupcy and the 5 or so other student's loans we are in contact with. There is no more fun in our life we just work to pay our bankrupcy and pay our taxes and our home and medical bills. Before NRI we had a boat and had a lot of fun almost once a week. We were more involved with church but spent so much time on real estate we didn't have time for that. We tried to sell our boat to try and not do bankrupcy along with every other thing we owed.
