Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich launched his freelancing course last month for people who were interested in earning more money on the side. He promised premium content (charging a premium price – think four digits before the decimal), and I bought it. The result? There’s amazing content in the course alright. Freelancing is not necessarily an easy route, but it is supposedly faster than productizing and more rewarding  than getting a higher salary. Ramit provides information that will help a newbie (like myself) succeed faster than a normal freelancer — provided I have the initiative. He helps point out the best way to succeed (emphasizing the need to get inside your customer’s head) with worksheets, examples, and case studies to help you out. [...] [...] Earn1K Course.

Now, I wanted to ask why you insist on "freelancing" being the right way to go. My thinking is- If my income is dependent on TIME, like with a JOB or FREELANCING, then it's very hard to get rich because there's only so little of it to go around. If you could make your income dependent on something OTHER than time, things become easier. If I took my talents and made some PRODUCT out of it and it starts to SELL, then i have an ASSET- my income would depend on the value I create, not my time. For example. So again, why freelancing?

Remember, I invested tens of thousands of my own dollars into this course over the course of a year. You can't get that kind of material for free because I wouldn't invest if there wasn't the possibility of ROI. If you simply want more and more free material, that's fine. The blog is free. But if you want in-depth material and access to people you ordinarily couldn't get access to, then I'll make that available, too.

Coming up next, the Ramit Sethi Richness world tour. Get your tickets while you can, only $5k a pop. Sheesh.

I registered last week and got my receipt, but haven't heard anything since then. Can I get the link to the unofficial tier 3 forum as well? Thanks! Daniel Hi Ramit,
When is this course going to get started? I registered last week and got my receipt, but haven’t heard anything since then.

Can I get the link to the unofficial tier 3 forum as well?

Thanks!
Daniel
