Valuable Trading Knowledge, Concerning Sales Approach

I’ve been learning from Waqar Asim and Alex Garcia for about a year now, and their YouTube content is genuinely valuable. I also joined their 7 day course, which was well structured, and the Discord community has been very supportive. Waqar consistently emphasizes proper risk management and avoiding unnecessary financial risks.I recently booked a call about their 6 month VIP mentorship. The person I spoke with (not Waqar or Alex) applied a level of sales pressure that didn’t match the values shown in their public content or my experience in the Discord. When I explained that I didn’t have the money for the mentorship liquid, I was immediately asked about using credit. This was a red flag for me. I explained that I prefer not to use credit or go into debt, and that I would rather take a month or two and come back to this.At that point, he mentioned that the price of the mentorship would be increasing next month and, without saying the exact words, implied that I should raise my credit limit or obtain credit to pay for the program. He referenced other people who had done similar things and “gone all in.” He also alluded to the idea that I might not be serious, or that I should examine where my “fear” was coming from simply because I didn’t want to take on debt. This felt strange and out of alignment with the risk management mindset the team teaches.The conversation then became circular. Instead of respecting my decision, I was met with more pressure, comparisons to “1% risk takers,” and continued encouragement to use credit which felt opposite to the trading philosophy they teach and what Waqar discusses. By the end, it felt less like I was speaking with a trader or mentor, and more like I was speaking with a high ticket sales rep whose priority was closing the deal.To be clear, I believe the trading knowledge from Waqar and Alex is excellent, and the Discord community is supportive and solid. I can fully understand how a 1 on 1 mentorship could be valuable, but the sales approach I experienced did not align with what Waqar teaches about responsible growth and risk management.I also believe Waqar and Alex may not be aware of how the sales process is being handled, or that this particular call may have been conducted by a third party closer. If that isn’t the case, then I would be concerned about debt pushing practices.I’m not writing this to attack the program, only to share my experience honestly, because the rest of what they offer has been good. If the sales process were more aligned with the principles they teach, I would still be interested in joining in the future.
