    Hi Carl,

    I signed up to the 4 Percent Group about 9 months ago! I did not pay any money thank God, however, I did waste about four or five hours of my life listening to that man drone on and on as he continuously hinted at buying these done for you automated packages.

    Would you like to know what got me suspicious of this man?

    Well, I am somewhat of an amature body reader – nothing special – I kinda just know when there is deception in someones language or body behavior that is out of the normal pattern when I know what they are saying is truthful.

    OK, every now and again, the subject matter of money would come up regarding signing up to his packages. However, very interestingly enough, I noticed something way OFF with this guy everytime he broached this subject matter.

    Usually, he’d stand straight open palmed, voice certain and swift with his words. Thats him truthful. Money – when he mentions money, his eyes widen slightly, his head would lower slightly, his voice got just a little shallow and he’d almost be to eager to look away from the camera as though he were all of a sudden uncomfortable.

    NAHHH! Somethings up with this guy I thought. I Googled him.

    Apparently, he got prosecuted and jailed for fiddling his affiliates links to take their high earning commissions.

    LOL! I left and found WA soon after.

    I do not recommend this guys – hopefully his changed his ways and every one deserves a second chance, but, that put me way off of him so I left for good.

    Thank you for this incredible review and yes I do vouch for WA as they tell you straight the set price for your own online business with no nasty surprises you have to worry about.

    Regards,

    Philip.

      Hi Philip and great to have u stop by. Yes, I also believe in second chances so we can only hope that he has changed his ways. That is so interesting about the body language. I have never been any good at it, lol. Are they a scam? Well, I still cannot say but the price tag for all those made for you automated funnels was too much for me. Another thing about it is that everyone who joins them markets the same products, so everyone is in direct competition with u right from the get-go not to mention the other independent online entrepreneurs that are in the same market. That makes some tough odds to go against right from the beginning to try and make a go of it. Anyways I did not pay them and found WA instead and have not looked back since. Thanks for responding and I wish u great success in all that u do.

    I have looked at the 4 Percent Group, but was immediately put off by the high costs. I also did a little Googling on Vick Strizheus and he seems a little sketchy. I was particularly put off by the fact that he was jailed for swindling money from users on one of his other internet platforms. I’m not sure that the 4 Percent Group is any better.

    I like the idea of Wealthy Affiliate where they teach you how to be self-sufficient. In my opinion, this is the way to go – knowledge you can take with you if you decide to strike out on your own. I am not fond of systems that don’t teach you anything.

    Your review seems pretty thorough, but I didn’t see you mention any downsides to Wealthy Affiliate?

      Hi Nancy
      Thank you for taking the time to read my review. I agree that there are some shady things about Vick from the past, but maybe he is turning around, I do not know, but I hope so. Time will tell. I agree with u absolutely that having the knowledge it better than just following someone blindly along with no understanding of what is actually involves. Downsides to Wealthy affiliate … mmm … I guess I am not happy with how some of the members go about writing their reviews of other platforms but at the same time it does not impact me personally or my business, I just do not agree with what some of them do. This could be true for a lot of different platforms that are out there. I honestly cannot think of any other bad things about Wealthy Affiliate. I have not come across anything yet that I think could be improved on. The teach what they preach, the support for me has been outstanding and the training is current and easy to follow and understand and they offer great services and a bunch of free stuff for u to utilize. If I do come across a negative aspect I will be sure to post it here for everyone to read. Otherwise thanks very much for visiting my site and I wish u great success in all that u do.

      regards

    This is a very detailed comparison between two very prominent internet marketing companies. I have heard of the 4 percent group but was hesitant to join because of the high cost. On the other hand, I signed up with Wealthy Affiliate immediately because of the free membership and have gone on with the premium as this is such a good learning platform. I will definitely forgo 4 percent from now onwards, thanks for the information.

      Hi Moon

      Yes, the 4% group says that they have a free membership, but you have to join the other companies and pay their fees and monthly dues to be able to do anything within the group and they are needed so that u can at least get commissions from referring new members to the group. WA have a truly free program that is free for as long as u want. A much better option for sure. Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to read my article, I truly appreciate it and I wish u well.
