Someone told me the marketing genius of KT is overwhelming.

Did anyone tell KT what happens after the tricks stop working?

It looks like it will be a rude awakening.

KT never planned to screw anybody, at the time the IPT was started he had a big cash flow and thought he would have no problem funding it. I also think he actually believed it was going to work and be like poker although I have no idea how he thought that would happen. At one point he talked about having hundreds of thousands of subscribers to the web casts. At $5.95 a month that alone would have funded most of the tour.

I really believed that he believed it would happen, The products, licensing and so on. What he didn't plan on was the books cash flow drying up so fast and he was in a cash crunch before he knew it. The Natural Cures Book by the way was not his idea. He was out of business with getting kicked off TV with the junk he was selling and a Guy whose name I won't use brought him the Natural Cures book and with KT's background basically employed him as the pitch man. Since KT is all you ever see or hear it is assumed he is Natural Cures but he isn't.

He calls himself an advocate and a former insider in the medical field but he really doesn't have any background at all and didn't write a word of the book. He just recreated himself and adopted his new persona as he has done before to sell the book. He is an incredibly good liar so good he seems he can convince himself his BS is true. This brings us to the IPT, as crazy as the idea was, I think he really convinced himself he could do it, then the money ran out, end of story. I have a lot of information on the guy I never bothered writing but I throw in snippets now and then.

A lot of what I know I couldn't write way back when because I was being pounded even by the moderator about criticizing KT. People were convinced he was for real a billionaire, when in fact there are posters on this board who can buy and sell the phony. I just decided to let people believe what they wanted. I can't believe though there are still a few who are in some kind of dream state and actually think there is an IPT any more or some imaginary deal with this Mr. Ho. KT is good at what he does, you have to give that to him and people just want to believe beyond common sense. Some of these posts should end in amen because they are little more then prayers.

Absoloutly YES KT knew BEFORE Reno, its hard not to know you don't have $3m in the bank. Did anyone else know, I'd be shocked if they did, I don't think anyone other than KT could pull off an event like that and smile to the cameras if they knew there was no money to pay.
