    That commercial is on ESPNEWS like every morning. He is quite possibly one of the most annoying people on TV.

    The book works....he takes YOUR money and then HE gets free money to pay HIS bills! :p

    I've looked at one of his books (he has many) at a bookstore. All it is is a bunch of addresses that you can write to to apply for grants, etc. At least that's what was in the one book I saw.

    Remember when we were kids (if you're 25 or older) and those commercials would always come on that would tell you that you could get governmental fliers, pamphlets, and paperwork from Pueblo, Colorado??? Well...the government outsourced some of that to this dork. Everything he is offering to you is something you can find FOR FREE on governmental websites. Lesko's advantage...he's done the hard work of categorizing his stuff and makes it easy to flip right to the address/contact that you're looking for.

    AND...the fact that you know his name, remember his dorky question mark outfit and are talking about it in a public forum means he's won!!!:D

    I wholeheartedly agree that this guy is the biggest doofus on the face of the planet.

    "YOUTOCANGETFREEMONEYFROMUSINGMYBOOKTHATLISTS10000GOVERNMENTPROGRAMS"

    And I'm pretty sure that his books are at your local library as Referance books, so there you go. Don't give this guy your hard-earned money. Make him go on welfare or something.
