Easier scammer hustle. Financial Guru vs. Fitness Guru

[xXOGLEGENDXx]

Which do you think would be easier to pull off?

Financial Guru
- Put on a suit
- Rent a fancy car
- Start and manage a bunch of LLCs
- Make videos/webinar paid courses talking about vague financial information
- Host paid live events talking about same vague financial information
- You get to fall back on your "customers" blaming themselves if they fail and not you


Fitness Guru
- Be in shape. Go a step further and take steroids and/or get surgery
- Get some basic equipment and put your name/logo on them to sell
- Make videos of you doing workouts which can be short clips. You don't even have to do the full workouts
- Create and charge for basic workout programs and meal plans
- Sell "revolutionary" supplements
- Pay people to give fake testimonials to boost credibility
- Photoshop your photos

Fitness.

One would at least look for credentials when taking advice from a financial guru and and at the very least, if they are credentialed, you more than likely are a victim of an elaborate scam.

Fitness gurus for the most part have to look the part. Cheesy, greased up and somewhat attractive and boom, cash money.

Fitness. Mainly because your client base is unsuspecting and compliant.

Just sound like you know what you're doing.

I would say fitness, just for the simple fact that I know more people doing it. It seems like now only thing you need is a smart phone and a gym membership to become a health and wellness expert

Tough choice

Fitness because all the information you need is available for free on the internet

there is much more than that to being a financial guru...that it s "coli financial guru" what happens when you have to explain and be an analyst...and you have portfolios managing and they go south and you have to explain losing their investments?

if it was as easy as you said anyone could go in jpmorgan chase etc and land a high paying job

I'm going with financial guru. It's easier to fake a portfolio than it is to fake being in shape.

Political guru is the easiest BY FAR, though.

Breh you would be surprised how gullible a lot of people are

Fitness guru has.to be in shape at least. These financial guys get rich only teaching you how to get rich

Add to the Fitness Gurus those girls who have “Bubble Butt” workout programs after getting silicone injections

Financial guru easily. Cop a fake Gucci belt off alibaba for 25 dollars. Get 50k in prop money for 100 dollars. Rent a S-Class for 300 dollars. Rent out a decent looking Mcmansion for 300 dollars. Say some common sense shyt about credit or say you have the sauce for some new revolutionary way to make money online. Get a bunch of suckers then charge 500+ dollars for your course.

Lets say you get 2000 people to buy your 500 dollar course..
Thats 1 million dollars right there

The gucci belt, prop money, renty, Mcmansion and lets say the cameraman run you 1 grand at the most... You've made a 1000X return on your investment

i'd be scared of somehow getting arrested or sued with the financial guru stuff

fitness guru . u can just take exercise plan from pinterest and come up with a "plant based" meal plan and people will buy it hoping it leads to a body like yours - that doesnt even have to be natural (surgery). the hardest part is just staying in shape. if u make exercise videos for YT that's good money cuz people watch that single video multiple times a week/month to redo the exercise.

I think financial is easier but fitness is more simple. With fitness you still have to workout full-time.

It's easier to fake being rich than to fake being in shape. But the scam itself isvmore complex. You have to know what you're talking about. You have to confuse people with complexity so you have to somewhat understand your own bs and know why it's bs.

Fitness i feel like as long as you look the part and are organized, you could get housewives and lowself esteem people to buy into your bs no matter how basic it is. The thing is with fitness, you have to look in shape + look affluent.
