What I love about Inspirational and Motivational Speakers, is that the people who view them tend to believe they have no issues whatsoever. Believe me every man and woman alive has some issues, whether it be Tony Robbins, Deepak Chopra, or Your religious leader, or whomever is selling the most stuff. Yes "The Donald" told everyone to buy houses even after the bubble burst because he has his own interests at mind and probably doesn't understand the value of a dollar. People, please do your best to think critically, and evaluate people by knowing #1. Every person has issues. #2. Most people except maybe for your Mom (most Mom's) could care less about you as a person, but moreso what you can do for them. #3. Money is over-valued unless you don't have any.

This guy has always seemed creepy and snake oil salesman to me? He isn't my idea of a good show.

They are selling to the same viewers that think Trump is an icon of American financiers. Aim low, strike even lower.

The Burt Lancaster character in the Rainmaker comes to mind.

Haven't the networks heard.....insanity is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting a different result.

How low can NBC go with this snake oil salesman?

Isn't there anyone or anything better out there to be broadcast.
What a travesty!!!

What next the Sarah Palin revue?

I cannot stand this guy. He reminds me of the historical Snake Oil salesman. He was taught his spiel by the Fit for Life Scammers

FYI.
