    I have heard mixed reviews on the Rich Jerk. Some good, some bad. He has certainly gotten a lot of attention in the last few years. Take a look at his stuff and go with your gut feeling.

    What happens after you purchase Rich Jerk is that sales floors buy the leads and then they will call you and call you and pitch you on affiliate marketing with personalized coaching. That part is a major fraud. I think that these types of companies will be under more scrutiny especially as we see more news stories about fraud.

    I received a lot of emails "the rich jerk" which tells me that he is using a spam method to lead people to buy his ebook and learn "nothing"... I agree with ardley216 " digitalpoint is our ebook"!!

    Everything that is found in rich jerk can be found on the internet and/or this forum.

    It is just clever marketing, nothing more.....

    The businessmodel of this rich jerk guy is selling ebooks. I bet he didn't try any of the 'money making' methods he describes..

    I bought Rich Jerk when I was a newbie.

    Rich Jerk gave me a free "money making" website. He gave me websites to buy traffic for 1 cent and 5 cent clicks.
    He told me to send the traffic to the site. I spent $500 on that traffic.

    My Results: 50,000 hits. No sales. AdSense banned me. Then Rich Jerk staff called me asking me for $2,000.

    If anything, Rich Jerk showed me how NOT to get rich.

    He does not have a staff. It is just him and his incredibly lame site with very few daily hits.

    According to my sources, "rich" isn't exactly an accurate description of RJ. On the other hand, neither is "jerk."

    The fact that everyone says "i thought this" or "i thought that" means that he must of sold wuite a few copies and now has a major email list which is another large source of income.

    I think he probably does well out of noobs but once people find places like this they understand they dont need him

    .

    There's so much truth and free truth all over the place and in every corner of this world.

    But what's the use, unless the truth is presented in an organised and digestible form. such as the 'Rick Jerk' had done so masterfully in his document. :)

    I think that RichJerk is a model in creative online advertising. What an amazing awareness and brand that he has built. I personally would never buy a product from him, but PLENTY of people did/do. I remember first seeing his stuff in 2008 and thinking - this is different.

    When everybody is really trying to sell the same information, RJ gave it some flair.

    No idea if its good material or not. If you want a great way to get started in IM, do the 30 Day Challenge. Its brilliant. Totally free.

    You can't really call "The Rich Jerk" a fraud. Who cares if hes rich or a jerk? Its just a creative mascot for internet marketing that evokes envy and curiosity in potential web-entrepreneurs.

    WEll, maybe 5 years ago his ebook had merit... but it's totally outdated now... that's why you can grab it for only $9.97 versus the $97.00 it used to be

    Is he Rich?... Quite honestly, YES!, I've actually met the Guy, and unless he's hiding behind a Boat load of debt that I'm unaware of... He's got Lot's of coin!
