Comedian Steve Harvey defends the belief that making money is an innate skill and can be easily achieved with little effort. His motivational speeches highlighting this idea have received widespread attention on social media.
“There are only two ways to make money in this world: Either you provide a service or you sell something,” Harvey said in a video clip shared by an account named Wealthy on Instagram. mentioned in.
The clip turned out to be a speech Harvey gave at a 2019 conference called the 10X Growth Conference, hosted by financial influencer Grant Cardone, CEO of Cardone Enterprises. The problem is that today Mr. Cardone is being accused of shady conduct by some investors and supporters.
The Huffington Post reported in July 2023 that “Court records in lawsuits involving Grant Cardone's training programs show people locked into long, inflexible contracts with no ability to pay fees or get out of their contracts.'' This includes allegations from former customers who say that
However, in October 2023, the class action lawsuit against Cardone was dismissed. The complaint filed by Christine Pino against Cardone was excluded. Christine was following in the footsteps of his late father, Luis Pino, who started a legal battle. Lewis first filed the lawsuit in 2020 after investing $10,000 in two Cardone funds, The Real Deal reported.
The lawsuit filed by the Pinoses alleges that Cardone harassed investors on social media by making exaggerated promises about investor returns, minimizing financial obligations, and failing to fully disclose the fees he collected. He claimed that he had misled him.
And earlier this month, Cardone filed a $100 million defamation lawsuit against former T-Mobile CEO John Legere, accusing him of calling Cardone a “fraud” and “bulldog artist.” .
