Dean Graziosi Weekly Video Blog #52 - Student's Pay it Forward Scholarship

UPDATE: Check out the announcement of the scholarship

In case you missed it, my team announced a new student "pay it forward" scholarship on Friday.
A fund that will help pay the tuition for deserving people to go through my Real Estate Success Academy.

This was a surprise put together as a present for my birthday, and what a surprise it was! A present for me, that helps other hopeful investors. Wow. But it didn't stop there.

I was honored, by all of you who took the time to wish me well. Thanks to each and every one who sent in such awesome videos with birthday wishes. And for
those of you who helped create that mammoth stack
of birthday cards I found on my desk, and for all
the heartfelt posts on DG.com.

I was deeply touched. So I decided to do something to make it an even better program. And, since hundreds of you have submitted your applications for the scholarship already, it is important that you hear the news. And it comes at a pretty great time, because this just happens to be blog #52 - and that means it is the one year anniversary of my having started doing these weekly blogs. I just think that's pretty cool!

For my birthday, and our blog anniversary the best
gift I could think of is a way to help more of you!
So, watch the video and you'll hear everything else
you need to know.

THATS AWSOME!

I KNEW you would add a great twist to it!! Smiling LOVE it!!!
The "loan pool" idea is AWESOME!! I am so looking forward to see it grow and grow (and adding to it Eye-wink), and to see how many people will come through your new program and join us in the ranks of success!! Like you said, it really shows that what you are doing is making a difference! I knew from the first time I saw you on TV that I wanted to be a part of what you have/give. It was SOOOOO fun working with my fellow students and Megan and Ryan.
REALLY glad you were surprised and pleased. Of course, we never "saw" it any other way! lol
And now you have made it an even more incredible opportunity of a lifetime! SO EXCITING!!

Love ya!

Rina

P.S. I sure wish I could start naming names here of those who jumped right on board to contribute, but I KNOW I would forget someone (and of course you already know who they are!). Just know that you can be proud that your students have big, big hearts just like you! Eye-wink

Thanks for STANDING OUT ABOVE the Competition!!!

Dear Dean,

Thank you for going yet another step to show you GENUINELY care about people and their financial circumstances!!

You Stand Way Out Above the Competition!!!

I think we've ALL ALREADY FOUND "OUR FIRST DEAL"--
YOU!-- DEAN GRAZIOSI-- "THE REAL DEAL!!"

. . .there surely isn't now. I loved Dean from that first infomercial that captured my interest and sent me on the path of this new career. Dean you are so generous and sincere! It is so wonderful to see your students, like Rina, reflect your same style. What a joy to be part of this group. BTW, I'm getting ever nearer tp closing on my first two properties - both now under contract! Looking to rent one with a positive cash flow and either sell the other to another investor for a quick profit or maybe even rehab it myself! Who would have believed this a few months ago!

Great Idea

Hello Dean,

That was a Great Idea Dean, Thank you very much. Thanks also to Rina for starting it up. We all know that it only take a spark to ignite everything and that Idea is a Bombshell.

WOW!!! Incredible.. I can't

pimpedoutgeese's picture

WOW!!! Incredible.. I can't wait to contribute myself after my first deal. I think it's important to give back, understanding where you came from.

Rina, God bless you and the rest of you guys that helped out!!!

Great Idea!!

Rick888's picture

I knew that this was the best program on the internet when I signed up and now you've proven that again. Thanks Rina for such a great idea to give back to the DG community and thank you Dean for taking it one step further. I can't wait to be able to contribute myself!
Good luck to all!

You are truly by far the most giving person that I have met out here in the world, and I have met many. We are getting ready to go to closing for our last deal and I had a few moments to send this out.
When Jeremy and I were with you in Phoenix 2 weeks ago and we sat and ate Phoenix pizza( yuck, you were right, it's not New York pizza) I could hear the genuine tone in your voice.
concern, and sincerity. Jeremy and I are so proud to be a part of this energy and this great scholarship fund. Again, just a note to say what a great idea from Rina and your sponsorship of the idea. Your are truly a bright light in all our lives.....Jan

This concept certainly must further enhance the pride of belonging the DG family. Great ideas from everyone.

Dean,

Thank you for sharing another weekly video blog with us. It is very exciting for DG Members to hear the updated news. It is amazing that each day, each week and each month the DG website gets better and better by inspiring, motivating and helping more members achieve success. The current DG Members should always check-out the DG.com site everyday and tell their friends because they never know what they may miss. Sometimes I think of the DG website as the "Real Estate Knowledge Express". All Aboard! I hope everyone is on board and not just watching the train go by! Happy Thanksgiving! Believe and Achieve! Smiling - Joe

Dean that is a great idea. If you need a name for this fund you can call it "HOUSING" Helping Others Using Sources In Neighborly Giving. I came up with this name for a non profit organization but I could not get it off the ground. Hope you can use it. Thanks

Ed B.

WOW! Such a great Idea!

Dean,
That was a Great Idea!
Thank you very much for making this world better place to live...
Thanks also to Rina for starting it up! You are amazing Smiling

I can't believe we are

B.C.'s picture

I can't believe we are thanking YOU for your B-day gift. You are an amazin man DG, Ive never seen a guy that sells his product and then goes way beyond that and really cares about the people that invested in it, not to mention start a free web site for people to help guide each other and get help from successful students as well. Out of all the things on T.V. i have seen advertised I never bought one. But when I saw your informercial, I just got a gut feeling that you were the real deal, and so i bought the BARM kit and am so glad i did. As far as the people that you have surrounded yourself with,they too are incredible and tireless workers.
The people I know and have become friends with from DG.com are people i trust as if i knew them my whole life, and that is something else. It starts from the top, from you down Dean.
I wish you,your family and everyone at dg.com a fantastic thanksgiving.

Happy b-day again Dean

I cant thank you enough.
Richie.

Happy Belated Birthday and what a great gift

aerialist's picture

Hi Dean!
I've been ill lately and out of touch for too long so I'm just now getting caught up on the latest. I'm sorry I missed your birthday, but then again, I like to think of birthday's more as birthday week or birthday month; they should be celebrated for an extended period of time! So Happy Birthday, Dean!

I watched your post today and am happy to hear about the scholarship and the fund to help people get started with their first deal. I know there are many deserving people on this site who need that helping hand and it's great to know there's now going to be an avenue of help. And props to Rina for such a great idea and as well as her financial commitment to it. That is truly awesome.

Life is good!

Nancy

Hey Dean!

Dawn_Dean's picture

I hope you received the Birthday card I sent in time for your big day! Thanks for all you do and how you inspire us all. And what can I say about Rina? She's the bestess friend ever and just like you, she is truly amazing and caring. What a plan! I know this is just the beginning.......

loan

D-HI's picture

Dean, way to take it to a "much needed" level. DG loans...great idea!!! If it proves success, it would be benificial to extend to all...what do you think? I know we would all LOVE to have the stress free thought of knowing we can go to the DG Bank... Eye-wink

D

Keep up the Good Work

Dean...Happy Birthday. What a wonderful gift your family member will enjoy. A life lasting gift they can't forget for the rest of their life. I have applied for it and I do treasure it if I will be much considered. For sure if all what is being learned from the scholarshio gift are properly applied for I can be a worthy asset to share my success in your next "Best Seller Book" in the future. I can't promise but probably the role of Matt Larson in the two of your books. Life changes everyday and you never know its my time to prove it...dom

Wow Dean!

laurajohnson's picture

You have come up with a way to make a fabulous idea even better....and what better way than to take the funds and make them a loan that keeps getting recycled with each students success! I love it and am proud to be a part of it!

I am so thankful!

hillvalley's picture

It never stops to amaze me. The true genuine generosity of you, your staff, and the DG family members. I keep moving forward and the inspiration is incredible. What a great idea that Rina (a most delightful lady :0) and you with the scholorship program. I LOVE it! Today is the day for awsome change! I can't wait until I can contribute back! Happy Birthday again!

It is all about giving back

We have to congratulate Rina, Megan and the DG Team for putting this idea together. However, we must not forget that God was the mastermind behind it all. Dean is being used as an instrument to support, encourage and inspire others who believe that it cannot be done, and for this we are grateful. This is an opportunity to give back from what was extended to us. May we
continue to give as we have been blessed. I was not able the view the entire video because it stops after a few seconds, maybe a glitch in the system. I can't wait to see the entire video. God Bless.

Sandra

So true..

Rina's picture

We really are blessed to be a blessing.

Rina

There you go again

Magarahan's picture

Dean, you are such a generous person that you amaze us all. Your idea to fund the scholarship yourself and bank the students contributions as a source of lending for the scholarship winner's first deal is pure genius... a fund that can be used over and over by future scholarship winners who of course will contribute back to the fund itself along with a lot of other students...pure genius. We have a feeling this fund is going to get huge.

Mike & Mary

Wow is an understatement!

Elena M's picture

Well, Dean once again you've wowed me. That's such a nice touch to the scholarship idea.

You truly are miles above ANY other guru out there. I'd like to see their faces now! LOL!

I'm so glad that you were surprised and we touched you as much as you've touched us.

I just wanted to wish EVERYONE here a very blessed thanksgiving. All of the wonderful members of the incredible DG family have SO much to be thankful for!

May God continue to bless us richly!

God bless you, Dean!

I have looked thru your shows whenever i can. i just recently bought your books a few months ago and have been very excited about your blogs and other member success stories! I haven't actually actively done something yet except read your awesome books, but i've been very inspired and motivated by your goodness that shines thru the television and computer screens. I hope one day to finally meet you in person to thank you for the oppurtunity to make something wonderful out of my life and to also pay it forward to others in need. I have been praying for an oppurtunity like this to happen. Thank you so much! Have a blessed happy birthday,Dean! Much Love and Aloha! Meredith

IMMEDIATE APPLICATION FOR URGENTLY NEEDED --'SCHOLARSHIP'---!

RESPECTFUL GREETINGS DEAN,

WISHING YOU A HAPPY BLESSED BIRTHDAY WITH ALL THE BLESSINGS YOU CERTAINLY HAVE EARNED
OVER ALL THESE YEARS .
I just received your new book package today with PROFIT FROM REAL ESTATE TODAY which contained all you promised on your T.V. show !
I immediately called your Coaching number- the 1-888-286-7712 ext.425 - and was informed that the only way I could get started was with a down payment which would make it possible to help me thru my first 5 Deals which I urgently need to get going asap.
Due to my paycheck-to-paycheck limited situation I simply do not have that
down payment after all house bills are paid .
Right now I live in area which is just perfect for these Foreclosure Deals which I see every day when I just walk out thru the neighborhood !
But I desperately need the coaching guidance which I cannot afford at all, nor in the near future ! The only solution is indeed this down payment to get correctly started which in my case could only come from that 'SCHOLARSHIP'. Thus my urgent request;--

Would you please accept my last minute
Scholarship Application ?

Sincerely yours,

Your new Real Estate Student,

Martin7.

happy birthday Dean!

Happy anniversary as well.

Happy Birthday Dean and Happy Anniversary

What a great day for you!!!!! This is awesome. As I have said before I wish I would've found you before I spent a ton of money on something else that just wanted to give you bits and pieces and keep taking your money.

This is great and this certainly shows that you care and people who have gone through your program care.

What a great idea and I like the fact that you pay it back so someone else can use the money.

I knew you were the real thing.

Belated B-Day greetings.

Hey Dean:

Just wanted to pass along a prayer for you and the youngin. I think it's awesome that you were blessed to have an offspring born on the same date as you. May you continue to have many, many more.
And thanx for all you do with getting information to all of us on how to be more successful in this business. Keep up the great work and I look forward to someday meeting you in person.

To God be the Glory,
David

Holla!
