Achieving financial freedom doesn’t have to stay a dream
Introducing Hardworking Investor Bootcamp, a complete program to take your investment success to the next level
Avoid another decade of investing with nothing to show for it. It’s time to create your own investment portfolio so you can own the next decades of your life.
Only in Hardworking Investor Bootcamp:
I know it sounds crazy because we’re so used to hearing about “stocks are risky" and "it’s gambling”, and while there's some truth there, I’m going to share three secrets with you today that are going to revolutionize the way you think about investing in stocks.
I’m Jack Laffan and I’m an investor guide. I’ve spent over 2,000 hours learning how great investors have been successful, so you can spend a fraction of that to learn the same.
So what is Hardworking Investor Bootcamp?
It’s a go at your own pace, online course, designed to take complete beginner investors and transform them into confident, knowledgeable investors, that know with certainty the next steps they need to take to gain real world experience.
It’s got everything you need to learn how to pick great stocks and where to find them, what things to watch out for, how to read financial statements, how to value a stock, checklists, cheat sheets, and more.
So I’m going to share with you three secrets about investing in stocks and how you can emulate Buffett’s success.
And I know what you’re probably thinking: billionaires keep the secrets to themselves.
But again, I’m going to show you a great way you can invest in stocks and get amazing results.
The big idea here is successful investors like Warren Buffett, Howard Marks, and Seth Klarman, have been singing from the same hymn sheet, and spruiking about how others can do the same for over 50 years!
This is important because their investing performance is significantly greater than average professionals, and the other professionals are singing from a completely different hymn sheet…
Two different ways to invest, with one being vastly superior.
The main thing to understand here is that there is a way for everyone to invest successfully in the stock market. Finding the strategy that most suits them is the key to unlocking their potential. And to invest like Buffett, he’s said repeatedly that it doesn’t come down to IQ or education… it’s the right strategy paired to the right person.
This means there is nothing stopping you from success in the stock market, you just need to learn some strategies, see which one you like and suits you personally, and get started!
The main thing to understand here is that Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, Seth Klarman, Howard Marks, Peter Lynch, Joel Greenblatt, all have exceptional long term investing performance, over 20% average annual returns. And they all follow the same investing principles and strategies, first taught over 50 years ago, that are shunned by Wall street. And this strategy focuses on minimizing the risk of losing your hard earned money!
This is key because everyone these days just wants to shoot for the moon and then lose money, but you don’t have to. This strategy protects your hard earned money so it can compound for years and decades to come.
Now I know what you’re thinking.
I’ll need to work full time investing just to get close to their success.
Well the tricky thing is that us smaller investors have the edge against the so called smart money. We can see what other great investors are investing in and simple buy when it’s a great price, not much effort at all, plus if you have more time or a keen interest, you can pick your own stocks as you gain experience.
And so I’ve created this course so you can start investing in stocks, in a tried and tested way that has worked for over half a century.
And guess what, it’s completely free
And so what this is going to do is save you over a thousand hours of reading and learning, and start investing like other successful investors a lot sooner, allowing compound interest to work it’s magic for longer.
And I, as your investor guide, I’ve been where you are now, and it took me way too long to put this all together myself in a way it all made sense.
So what I’ve done is I’ve completed the first half of the course and have released it now whilst I complete the remainder.
So if you click the link you can enroll now and have instant access to everything in the course.
I honestly don’t know how much longer we’ll keep this course open before limiting numbers.
So click the link to get it today while it’s still available.
I can’t wait to see you on the inside.
Have a great day!

Like I mentioned before, this course is free.
Oh, and in case you're wondering...
There Is NO CATCH!
I know there are some websites out there that offer you something cool for free, but then stick you into some program that charges your card every month.
This isn't one of them.
There's NO hidden "continuity program" - and in case you're wondering why I'm doing this, well, there are actually a few reasons...

I’m Jack Laffan, a Mechanical Engineer that grew up on a farm near Newcastle, Australia.
I do have a passion for analysing businesses, honing my leadership skills, and crunching numbers. I also prefer to wear board shorts, band t-shirts, and thongs (aka flip flops).
When it comes to learning, it is best to learn the strategies and tactics from people who are the best in their field. Investing is no different.
I don’t put weight on the opinions of people that have not done what they preach. This is me being completely honest with you. There is one thing I want to be clear on though. I’m not teaching you my investment strategy, I’m teaching you theirs.
Buffett Partnership: 29.5%, over 13 years. Berkshire Hathaway: 19.8%, over 58 years
Oaktree Capital: 18.8%, over 31 years
Magellan Fund: 29.2%, over 13 years
Baupost Group: 20%, over 41 years
Gotham Capital: 50%, over 9 years
Nomad Partnership: 20.8%, over 13 years
Arlington Value Capital: 20.1%, over 16 years
Let me be clear, I cannot teach you exactly what these gents do. All I can show you are the frameworks that have made sense for me, based on the information these geniuses have left for us.
I have curated the investing strategies and lessons that are sprinkled throughout thousands of pages of reports, books, and countless hours of video and audio. Into a cohesive and straight forward course. Taking you on a journey from a know-nothing investor, to a confident individual investor, armed with knowledge and skills. The only advantage I have is I am on this investing journey with you and understand your challenges.
I’ve also combined advanced and unconventional learning techniques with written, audio and video content. The online learning platform allows you to learn when you want and progress at your own pace.
Investing relies on you making the best decisions, so I have included frameworks and tactics to keep your mind sharp, and save you from poor decisions, all based on the immense knowledge base these great investors have provided.
All of these components merge to create an environment where you cannot fail, I will not let you fail. Your success IS my success.
Hardworking Investor Bootcamp covers the ENTIRE process of starting and growing your stock investments:
Hardworking Investor Bootcamp gives you EVERYTHING you need.
All the principles, strategies, frameworks, hands-on tactics, mindsets, and so much more.
I've cut out all the B.S., all the detours.
You don't have to spend years figuring this out like I did.
You don't have to feel alone, like you're shouting into a void.
You don't have to build your investment portfolio by trial and error, just hoping your strategy will work.
And you don’t have to take my word for it, these strategies and lessons are all examples from great investors. All using the same principles that Graham and Dodd taught almost a century ago and have built billion dollar investing empires.
All it takes is a couple of hours a week to master one of the most powerful and proven investment strategies available.
I remember thinking while at university, this will get me a job, but how do I get wealthy? Through investing of course. I’d heard so many older people tell me to “invest”, “save 10% of what you earn”. But I looked at them and they didn’t have the investing success I strived for. I knew I needed to seek those that had achieved success. So I researched the best investors on the planet. And I came across a few great investors, with similar styles, that just happened to beat the market for decades, not just the odd year here and there.
Well then who were the greatest investors? Enter Warren Buffett and the modern Superinvestors of Graham and Doddsville:
So I had found successful investors that all shared the same principles, but applied to different areas of investing, some in debt securities, some in small stocks, and some in business conglomerates. And the greatest part, most of these guys are very generous with giving away their lessons learnt, and what they see. The only problem was, all this information takes a huge amount of time to trawl through, pull together into a coherent strategy, and structure into a useful lesson.
Buffett’s first rule of investing is Don’t lose money, rule 2 is don’t forget rule 1.
Have the right mindset when the market crashes.
Have the war plans on the table, ready to execute and take advantage of market opportunities.
I identified the trickiest area of investing, which is business valuation and turned it into something anyone can learn.
You are going to get the tactics that will cut down the time it takes to find and assess great businesses. But I’m going to give you something even more valuable than that. If you are going to be investing for years and decades to come, you’re going to need something timeless. Luckily we’ve got just that. The hard learned lessons from master investors, so you don’t need to make their million and billion dollar mistakes. The timeless overarching principles that have been in use for over half a century, and will always produce significant returns, no matter how many people know.
Personally, I recommend you take the lessons in order, but if you want to skip around, go for it. I get it, sometimes I want to binge watch the latest Marvel series.
And here it is, all for you.
I want the best outcome for you, I want to see you succeed. The best way for you to achieve, unsurprisingly, is to do, do the work, make mistakes, and learn from them.
What I hear, I forget
What I see, I remember
What I do, I understand

And in exchange for all this new material, I have some expectations for you.
I expect you to put in the work - a couple of hours a week, in fact the number one predictor of your success is if you actually put the time into your calendar and follow through.
I expect you to take an active role in executing the content you are consuming. This isn’t a tv show or youtube where you can just watch and let it absorb into you.
This is Hardworking Investor Bootcamp, this is an investment program you have to actively participate in.
You are going to encounter ambiguity, you are going to fail at certain steps, that is completely normal.
Take ownership for your experience in Hardworking Investor Bootcamp, because you are the Chief Investment Officer of your investments.
Because ultimately you are responsible for your success.

“What if I don’t know how to invest?”
“How is Hardworking Investor Bootcamp different from other courses on the market?”
"How much help am I going to get? What if I get stuck?"
"When can I expect to make impressive returns?"
"Ugh, I don't want this to become yet another thing on my to-do list."
"What if I fall behind?"
"What if I live in Europe / Australia / UK (or somewhere else)?”
"Is this course live?"
"How much time does it take to do this course per week?"
"Is there a community of Hardworking Investor Bootcamp students I can connect with?"
What would it cost for you to learn this yourself? I like to be candid with all your options, so you're fully informed.
Get an MBA with Value Investing? Spend $77,000 dollars just for your first year of tuition at Columbia Business School. This is the same school Warren Buffett attended, just so he could learn from his dream mentor who happened to be a professor there, Benjamin Graham.
Get a CFA? A CFA can cost anywhere from $2,600 to over $8,000. Over a 10 year period, just over a million people sat the level I exam. In the same period 150,000 people passed the final level III exam. 1 in 8 people pass. On average it takes 4-5 years to complete with successful candidates spending 900 hours to prepare. To top all of this off, these guys are learning the methods and strategies that billionaire investors scoff at.
Naturally the disservice done students and gullible investment professionals who have swallowed EMT has been an extraordinary service to us and other followers of Graham. In any sort of a contest - financial, mental, or physical - it’s an enormous advantage to have opponents who have been taught that it’s useless to even try. From a selfish point of view, Grahamites should probably endow chairs to ensure the perpetual teaching of EMT.

Do it yourself? I’ve spent over 2000 hours researching and preparing just the information for this program. Feel free to do the same, or take advantage of other people's work so you can save our most valuable resource, time. It is what we humans have done for thousands of years, building on top of the knowledge from those before us.
Do nothing? The easiest answer to accept, do nothing. The main problem here is you need to do something, because like it or not, inflation is reducing the value of your cash. You need to do something. How much longer will you wait? How many excuses will you create? If not now, then when?
When I started, I would have done anything to get the exact roadmap to follow to investing success. Instead of meandering around aimlessly at first, trying to pick apart the success of others, and then to learn their way. I would have done anything to save my time and start investing with confidence sooner.
