Kevin Trudeau is an American author, salesman, and television personality known for promotion of his books and resulting legal cases involving the US Federal Trade Commission. His ubiquitous late-night infomercials, which promoted unsubstantiated health, diet, and financial advice, earned him a fortune but resulted in civil and criminal penalties for fraud, larceny, and contempt of court. In the early 1990s, Trudeau was convicted of larceny and credit card fraud. In 2007, he was accused of grossly misrepresenting the contents of his book, The Weight-Loss Cure "They" Don't Want You to Know About. In a 2004 settlement, he agreed to pay a $500,000 fine and cease marketing all products except his books, which are protected under the First Amendment. In 2011, he was fined $37.6 million for violating the 2004 settlement, and ordered to post a $2 million bond before engaging in any future infomercial advertising. In 2013, facing consequences for non-payment of the $37 million judgment, Trudeau filed for bankruptcy protection. His claims of insolvency were challenged by FTC lawyers, who maintained that he was hiding money in shell companies, and cited examples of continued lavish spending, such as $359 for a haircut. In November 2013, Trudeau was convicted of criminal contempt, and was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison in March 2014. The Chicago Tribune reported in April 2014 that infomercials starring Trudeau and promoting his books continued to air regularly on United States television stations even though he was in jail at the time. Trudeau left federal custody in 2022 after 8 years, after which the FTC continued to pursue the unpaid $37 million fine.
First 2-3 CDs were worth skipping entirely. He just blabs on about his ex-"Brotherhood" secret society from an extremely Narcissist perspective. But once he starts getting into the LOA work itself it's very good material. That said, however, if you've listened to Abraham Hicks before you'll hear nothing new here. While he does reference them briefly at the end, he copies many of their words throughout the problem while ironically proclaiming that 'no one else' he or anyone he knows has ever come across the proper material. Then at the end says Abraham is 99.9% dead on to the facts. So contradictory! But, decent material - especially from someone who's now in prison...
Changed the way I view the world. From being unfamiliar with the concepts and totally skeptical regarding the major ideas, this audio set open my eyes to the world the way I view it today and triggered my curiosity to learn more and more.
Although the ideas conveyed here are not new or innovative, they are designed for a mind that could not see beyond the world it's captive in. Through the simplification of controversial ideas, Trudeau succeeds at bringing the mind to question concepts otherwise deemed trivial.

Dude is an absolute bullshitter. While there is good info here and there, dude keeps rambling about dumb bullshit throughout the CDs like secret societies, how all these "other" people don't know what they're talking about. In fact in the beginning he keeps saying that you should listen to people who've achieved what you want. Well, Mr Trudeau, you're in fucking prison for 10 years, so should we be listening to you according to yourself? (Of course it must be those "secret societies" that set him up because he was revealing all their precious info...)
He tries to make the info seem more legit by claiming it's coming not from him but from his colleagues who are from "the secret societies" who are apparently present during the recording. But it's so painfully and cringe-worthily obvious that there is no one present during the recording and that it's probably done in a studio, by him, even though he also claims he's speaking to an audience who "paid $10,000 each to be there" and that they're in the Alps. Nah. This was probably done in a studio somewhere in the US. There is no audience and there are no "colleagues" from "secret societies". It's so ridiculous how he keeps pretending to ask them questions when there's obviously no one there (and tries to justify it with "there is no microphone to pick up the questions so I'll just repeat them").
CD 5 is basically him claiming complete unscientific nonsense about "vibrations" and how your brain vibrations can travel instantly across the earth, faster than the speed of light. What makes this most ridiculous is that he tries to claim science has proven all of this stuff he talks about and how "Albert Einstein and Thomas Edison both agreed on this and that" when it's painstakingly obvious to anyone with a high school education is physics that it is complete and utter unscientific bullshit. I don't mind when people use unscientific paradigms to help others understand something in a simplistic and out-of-the-box way, but why is he resorting to LYING that this is all scientific when it's not?
I've listened to the first 6 CDs and I can't listen anymore. The obvious lies, how he keeps dragging points out for filler purposes, and how he keeps rambling about irrelevant and dumb shit all makes this impossible for me to continues. I learned some stuff, but I feel like I would've gotten the same benefit by reading over Think and Grow Rich, the Secret and listening to Abraham Hicks, since this shit is pretty much just a rehash of these 3 (yet, he claims "this information is available nowhere else") There would certainly be much less dumb filler about conspiracies and secret societies and about how beautiful the Alps in his studio are and him pretending to ask a non-existent audience questions. I realized a lot of the stuff was dumb and filler pretty soon, but I kept listening hoping there would be SOME bits of useful information I could extract. There were but I can't listen 8 more hours of this just to get 5 or 6 useful bits of info that I can get from actually useful sources like the 3 I mentioned at the start of this paragraph.
Spare yourself the time waste and the agony of having to listen to this lying, convicted fraudster.
Biztosan sokan azt mondják erre a hanganyagra, hogy ugyanazt mondják el ötezerszer. Ez igaz is, de valahogy, megvan a jelentősége. Kíváncsi lettem a titkos társaságokra, a Global Information Network-re (amibe akár jelentkezni is lehet, még magyarul is tud a weboldal), de leginkább arra, vajon képes volnék-e úgy működtetni a "vonzás törvényét", ahogyan az itt elhangzik. Az mindenesetre elgondolkodtató, hogy érdemes odafigyelni arra, amit nagyon sikeres emberek vagy zseniális feltalálók és tudósok mondanak.
Plusz, ami nagyon megfogott, az a taníthatósági index. Ismerek olyan embert, aki folyamatosan tanul, de teljesen feleslegesen is egyben. Pontosan ezért van az, hogy egyes embereken nem lehet segíteni. A taníthatósági indexük nulla.
Szintén örömmel hallgattam, hogy mennyire fontosnak tartja a szerző az olvasást. Manapság ez különösen sokat jelent.
A könyv egy része ugyanazt mondja. Ez a "nem győzöm eleget hangsúlyozni" szellemében hangzik el. Más részében azonban épp elegendő gyakorlati tanácsot kapunk ahhoz, hogyan változtassuk meg az életünket.
Azt gondolom, érdemes odafigyelni arra, amit ebben az anyagban megismerhetünk. Akár ki is próbálhatjuk, mi történik, ha elkezdjük megvalósítani ezt a módszert.
I wanted to like this one. If you haven’t already read the Napoleon Hill’s, Zig Ziegler, John Maxwell etc books, this should be a great eye opener, otherwise if you’ve been studying self improvement for awhile you’ll find this series to be very elementary.
For those who want to know about one of the most underrated secrets of life. This is where you can begin your journey.
I highly recommend you to join "Global Information Network" if you found "YWIYC" useful. Consider that there are more to this universe than what you know.
