We will give Carlton Sheets credit for a few things. Though his course is pretty basic, it is relatively sound, and covers more than one strategy. However, the materials are not detailed enough for the average "newbie" to start investing, so Carleton offers coaching, of course. And the coaching is expensive. You can be out thousands before its over - and in all likelihood you still will not become wealthy.

While the company that markets the Carlton Sheets course (American Marketing Systems Inc.) has a "B" rating (up from an "F") at the Better Business Bureau, they do still get hundreds of complaints, which speaks volumes. Every company gets unhappy customers, but most legitimate businesses will resolve issues before they ever get to the BBB. On the other hand, Carleton Sheets' coaching company (Legacy Learning) has an A+ rating, and that is certainly worthy of mention. It does not, however, mean that the coaching is effective, nor does it mean Carlton Sheets is worth the high cost. The majority of complaints about Carleton Sheets revolve around poor quality of the coaching.

Whereas the Carlton Sheets course, though basic, is based on reasonably sound principles, we would not call it a scam - but it comes close. And there is something to be said for an infomercial guru who has lasted this long without suffering the fate of other hucksters who fell from grace when the long arm of the law caught up to them for scamming.
