We're going to do a special FREE 3-Day course for y'all in Atlanta, GA beginning on Friday, March 1 through Sunday, March 3, 2013.

THAT'S CORRECT: 3-DAYS WITH ME, JOEY, JEFF AND GARRETT ABSOLUTELY FREE.

We love this blog and all of our Rule #1 and Payback Time readers and we received so many requests to have another contest to win a free seat at our 3-Day Rule #1 Cash Flow Options Course that Melissa and I have decided to do a special one-time-only course again this year.  

Of course there are limits to what we can do so we're not going to rent out the Atlanta Phillips Arena.  We're going to keep the course small and intimate like our regular courses so we can teach you well.

We're going to do this for 100 of you (and your spouses/partners/significant others/kid/parent/cousin person).

You read that right: 100 of y'all are going to be our guests in this 3-day course plus your guest if you want to bring him/her. So ... 200 seats max.  

Garrett has convinced us that you guys deserve it.  Melissa and I agree.  The information we teach about Rule #1 basics and options is so unique in the world of investing that we don't want you guys to have to wait for the next book to learn about it.  And I'm tired of pussy-footing around on the blog and not talking about this stuff.  It's time you got out of elementary school and started learning how we really do things.

This class is going to be incredible.  I'm leading the course along with Joey Miller and my brother, Jeff Town and superstar blogger, Garrett Woolley.  If you want to meet Garrett, Jeff, Joey, Melissa and me along with our top staff, here's your chance.    

If you haven't done anything like this with us before, ask around and you'll find out we do everything we can to make your experience life-changing.  We do a lot of 1:1 coaching during the course for anyone who is feeling a bit overwhelmed by the pace but don't worry: If you read my book, you'll be in good shape to rock on to the next level of investing success.

This particular 3-Day Atlanta Special Workshop is going to be three days packed with our unique Rule #1-oriented training on how to invest in stocks and options with the least risk of losing money and the most opportunity for increasing your cash flow.  

This may be the opportunity to get that hands-on training that can take you to the next level that many of you have been waiting for.

Here's a few things the course attendees will learn:

-How to know the difference between a really wonderful company and one that just looks like it in the tools

-How to nail down the real Sticker price

-How to use the Sticker to spot a great options trade for instant cash flow

-How to sell option insurance and collect cash with a ROP trade (something I do all the time)

-How to profit whether your stock goes up or goes down in a ROSS trade

-How to make cash flow happen with a 94% statistical probability of being on the winning side of the trade by doing a ROC trade

-How you can target a 50% compounded annual growth rate for your options portfolio

-How my partner recently did 70 winning options trades in a row

-When to use an option trade instead of a stock investment

-When to use an option trade with a stock investment

-How to protect against taking a loss in your stock without the insurance costing you anything

-How to leverage your long position to maximize your return (and how a couple of guys did that and turned $110,000 into over $100 million in 5 years).

-How and when to get out of a losing options trade and how to turn it into a winning options trade

-How to allocate your options capital to the correct number of options trades each month

-How to do the Rule One 10-10 trade to get repeatable cash flow

... and a whole lot more.

Now lets talk about how you get to go the course.

The course is free.  You invest in getting to Atlanta, your hotel room (approx $100/night) and food.  We'll pick up the coffee, the training room, the internet, instructor's travel/hotels/food/cars and the instructors fees. Lest you think this is trivial on our part, I'll tell you what it costs us: We estimate its going to be almost $60,000.

So you gotta be asking yourself why we'd spend that.  Are we altruists?  Do we just love people?  Are we nuts?

Well, if you don't know us yet you'll learn that one of our favorite books is Atlas Shrugged so probably the altruistic motive is out.  And I love my wife ...but loving y'all's got nothing to do with it.  And no we're not crazy. I'll tell you why we're doing this: Same reason I wrote both books and spent over $1 million on publicity to promote them - we want to change the world we live in and the only way to do it is to change one person at a time (well, 100-200 at a time is okay too).

Our courses change lives.  That's why we do them.  And that's why we're going to let a bunch of you take this course for free.

Okay so back to you.  What's it going to take to get you to get off your butt and do this?  Are you skeptical and that gives you an excuse to procrastinate your way along in life?  The last time we offered a few free seats we had a concerned father of a young woman calling us to demand to know what the catch was.  He said he was sure we were going to be selling her something at the course.  We said no, we aren't.  No selling allowed. Just pure education, as best as we know how to do it.  This dad was very perplexed.  He couldn't think how we were going to take advantage of his daughter but he just knew we were somehow.  

I gotta tell you that when Melissa and I decided to do let some of you attend our courses for free I didn't expect skepticism in response but on hindsight its a pretty natural response to something that looks too good to be true.  So if you're skeptical and concerned, we understand, and we can tell you that you're in for a great weekend of education.  And we start teaching in the morning of Day One, you'll know you're in the right place.  So don't be too concerned about being too concerned but also don't let your inner skeptic keep you from an experience of a lifetime and from what many students say is a life-changing experience. 

(As an aside, the daughter loved the course so much she sent all the ladies on our staff a big box of skin-care products afterwards.)

Now, how to get to the course.  

Simple.  Just like last time.  All you gotta do is sit down and write about 200-400 words.  Maximum 400. Some of you learned to your embarassment last time that we are not going to teach you if can't follow simple instructions.  Do not write more than 400 words or we will toss your entry into the round file.  We let Garrett get away with breaking the 400 word rule in the first contest and he's been writing 2000 word essays on the blog ever since.

What should you write about?  Tell us what it will do to your life if you become wealthy through Rule #1 investing.  What will you do with the money?  Who will you help?  How will you change the world we live in? What will the money mean to your kids, your parents, your retirement, your life now?  Tell us your dream for your life.

But only 400 words.

And don't worry about the grammer or the way you say it.  Just say it from the heart.  Tell it like we're standing there talking.  All we care about is that you're telling us your dream.

The DEADLINE for all entries is 12:00 midnight EST, FRIDAY, JANUARY 25, 2013.  You've got 9 days. Get to it.  

Here's who wins:  The first 100 good ones win 2 free seats.  When the seats are gone, they're gone. After that you get wait-listed.

SEND YOUR ENTRY TO: Registration@ruleoneinvesting.com.  Be sure to put your full name on your entry. And keep it under 400 words.

WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED VIA EMAIL ON MONDAY, JANUARY 28, 2013.

If you win a seat, be ready for 3 incredible days of the best investing training on the planet and should you think I'm exaggerating, ask around on the blog and the people who've been to the previous version of this training will tell you what they think.

By the way, this message is going out to 40,000 people who are active in our database from our books and blog.  First entries in get first priority with the judges.  First 100 good ones win.  Early counts.

There will be 100 winners and there will be a wait-list.  Some of the winners are likely to not be able to make it to the course so the people on the top of the wait-list will also be notified that they are on the wait-list and that they will be contacted the minute a seat opens up.  And if we can accommodate more than 200, the wait-list group will be the first to be invited in.

If you've already attended the Rule #1 Cash Flow course, either the 3-Day or the CR-280 and want to re-take it, this is your chance to do that and we'll make room for you. This course is a Beta.  We're making some changes to the Cash Flow course. We'd love to have you there. You guys are our best students and anything we can do to help you get to this course, we'll do if we can.  You don't need to write anything.  Just let us know you want to re-take the course and you're in.
