I too was played the fool to the Investools program. I was misled into believing that with my 20k investment into the program that I could easily make this back within 6months to a year with "enough hard work", no problem I thought, but I didnt have the money. I feel ashamed to have fallen for this but want to comment now on seeing others who I can validate their stories.
I was incouraged to use debt to get started in the program as well, I was led that "getting in" is the only thing holding me back. I will agree with some that responded that "I had no business getting into this" which is true. With more sound judgement which I pride myself with normally, failed me in this. This also made me try the system longer than I should have tring to justify the decision I had made.
This of course desparate investing was more like gambling to save face. I say that I learn a lot from the system but was not able to use it effectively. For the betterment of my life I am giving up this investing and face up to the fact that I made a bad decision and I cannot correct it by "gambling in the market".
I too agree that option trading was highly incouraged which was new to me and one that even though I had success time to time nothing consistent that I would now call anything more than gambling. Anyway, wanted to share my unfortunate story as well to hopefully prevent anyone else from this mess.
