Christian Osgood warns that mentors flaunting expensive cars, boats, and mansions are usually using them as sales tactics. These purchases are written off against income from online courses and marketing programs, advised by accountants to create an aspirational image. Skip mentors who need to prove their wealth.

Number 1, first and foremost, if they're flashing the car, boat, plane, mega house, tons of money, crazy vacations all the time, they're probably trying to sell you something. All those things are write-offs against active income, which usually comes from selling courses. They are selling things. They're getting cash. That cash has to go somewhere. Their CPA goes, oh, you have to buy this. You see their garage with 6 Bentleys and you go outside. Wow, look at this boat. This is the life you can have. Yeah, that's the life you can have if you're an online marketer.
