Smile Who is Making Real Money?

Is it you? Is it me? No! The big guys called gurus are making the big money out there. While we try to read aeverything we can get our hands on, buy everything else we think could help us to richness and which we cannot find free here on the forum or somewhere else, the big guys are using a strategy called "knowledge is power and knowledge is money" and are selling this 24/7.
They have the knowledge, we want their knowledge so they make money from us. We all aspire to be rich, so this can be exploited to the maximum. All the ebooks bought, all the software outhere, all bought with the higher purpose of getting rich. I spent a lot of money on internet marketing materials besides what I could found free on internet. I have read and used all of them. I'm not yet a marketing guru, how is that possible!?
Well, too much time spent reading crap, using crap software, getting other rich while I invested time and money without any visible success.
When was the last time when you heard or read about a marketing guru using techniques from book "x" or using software "y".
They are developing their own products, they are very aware that all people want easy money and advertising is all and they sell.
I have in mind several websites which i saw recently:
1.membershipbotcamp.com - 2 guys, not real big shot internet marketing gurus launched a program which was sold somewhere at $2000.00 per course. They sold over 10000 courses, after that the program was closed
2.TrafficSecrets.com by John Reese another program like this. After selling over 5000 courses or more, John closed the website.
3. The newest out there also closed Getaltitude.com program by Eben Pagan (aka David DeAngelo the famous DoubleYourDating.com dude. That's really funny, a guy which before gave dating advices now it's a marketing expert)
What all these three have in common: they sold life philosophies, so called marketing strategies meant to teach us how to make money and generate traffic, nothing new there.
Their strategy is simple: very but very good advertising, limited number of copies which creates request and after a couple of months another version of the program usually called "X 2.0" and another 5000-10000 sales generating over 10-20 millions of dollars.
Since the course is so large, observe the one posted here on the forum for the get altitude program, nobody wants to lose so much time uploading or downloading the entire program from rapidshare or similar websites. We cannot find it free, we cannot buy, we wait for the next "price-improved" version of the program.
This , my friends is how the big guys are making money
