Losing lustre
Friday 3rd July
Hi
One of the more fascinating stories for property investors this week has been changes at formerly high-profile "education company" Richmastery.
This story reports on a restructuring where the business is transferred from one company to another and the former company is put into liquidation.
Richmastery is one of those organisations which attracts a fair bit of criticism; Often it is labelled as promoters of "get-rich-quick" schemes and even the word "spruiker" has been attached to it.
No doubt some of the criticism is well-founded. Other bits are tall poppy syndrome, or just competitors taking a free-hit.
Finish reading my blog here and don't forget to post your comments.
Have a great week.
Warm regards
The Landlord
