Well a few months ago the answer to that question would have been easy, but things are changing so quickly now it’s become a little more complex…
There is The Elevation Group of the past, what it is today, and what it will become tomorrow…
In the beginning, (which was only back in December of 2010), the idea was simple… To create a website that would “take you inside the secret black-box investing strategies of the ultra-rich”… This concept was born out of personal frustration…

You see, in many ways I’ve been able to live the American Dream…
After grooming my feathers in the network marketing industry after college, I finally cracked the code and went from waiting tables, to making my first million by the age of 27.
By 30, I had built my little publishing company up to 15 employees, and around $15 Million in revenue.
And during those years, I did what any single kid making millions would do… I spent it on fast cars, big houses, and trips around the world.
But when the big 3-0 hit, I finally realized that I was wasting an incredible opportunity to create real financial freedom in my life by throwing it away instead of investing it…
So I dove into the world of investing with both feet, searching for, and reading everything I could on the topic only to be dismayed by what I found…
Everything was written around the “Middle Class Dream”… 401K’s, IRA’s, mutual funds, stock-trading, flipping houses, etc…
It quickly became apparent that these strategies were not designed to produce enormous wealth… They were designed to help the Boomer’s achieve “comfort and security” on fixed retirement incomes.
It was all a bunch of BS created around the retail financial services industry designed to profit off the naïveté’ of the middle class.
And while I could see what for what it was, it became apparent to the entire world on September 16th, 2008… That was the day Lehman collapsed, and when a new era of investing began…
And with the realization that the issues faced by the US, and frankly the rest of the world, were infinitely bigger than what most people understood, I also saw the greatest opportunity of our lifetimes…
Everything we know about the world is about to change forever, and the greater the change the bigger the opportunity.
This is why up to that point, more people became millionaires during the Great Depression than any other time in history.
And here we are today…
Facing what is essentially the entire reset of the global financial system that has been abused past the point of no return. Everyone on the planet is in this game whether they realize it or not, and when the final whistle blows, you’re either going to end up wealthier than you can imagine, or you’re going to lose everything.
The only factor that will determine which group you’re in, is knowledge… Do you know what’s happening, and do you know how to turn it into opportunity?
But if you’re going to produce wealth in revolutionary times like these, you have to accept that the rules have changed.
Now I am not, nor will I ever claim to be any kind of financial or investment guru, but it’s quite obvious that if you stick your money into the vehicles used by the rest of middle class America, you’re going to get sheered with the rest of the sheep.
The investment tools and strategies of the past that were designed for, and dependent upon never-ending exponential growth will not work today or in the future.
So if you want to become rich these days, you have to invest your money like the rich do.
Of course this sounds great in theory, but there simply aren’t any books or courses out there in the world that show you how to do that. And I know, because I’ve spent the past four years looking for them…
Everything has been written for the paradigm that just ended. When it comes to a detailed blueprint for unlimited, yet safe, secure wealth creation in what is essentially a brave new world, it doesn’t exist.
The individuals making money today are visionaries and mavericks who understand what’s really taking place.
And while these men and women are making record amounts of money today, they aren’t really talking about it. It’s very much an insider’s club. Which means that this kind of knowledge is basically trapped inside a black-box that is hidden from the general public like you and I.
But time is too short, and the stakes are just too large right now for anyone sit on the sidelines and do nothing.
The time is right now. It’s not next week, or next year. With every day that goes by, the window of opportunity get’s smaller and smaller, and the risks of inaction get greater and greater…
So I decided to take matters into my own hands, and crack open that box myself. The result began as a simple passion-project I created for myself and a few close friends that I nick-named, The Elevation Group.And my strategy was simple…
There are three things you need to get yourself out of the middle class investment slaughterhouse, and into the world of the rich…
First, you need cutting-edge, inside information from people who really know what’s going on… Not from the talking-heads on the news, or from your “adviser” who’s only regurgitating the company mantras that are designed to simply sell you on more of their products.
Second, you need the knowledge and skills needed to act on the information you receive…
And finally, you need to have the rolodex necessary to make all of this possible. This is the single most important piece of this entire puzzle because building wealth is just as much about who you know, as what you know.
So over the past few months, and at this very moment, I am systematically using my rolodex and connections, to track down individuals around the world who have net worth’s that range from a minimum of $10 Million, to 1 Billion.I’m flying to their homes.
I’m putting them on private conference calls, I’m getting them to reveal how they invest and grow their money personally, and I’m documenting the entire process in a way that’s never been done before in the private Elevation Group diary. We are exposing people to the truth about what’s really happening to their money.
We understand that the world has changed, and we’re offering a simple way for people to empower themselves through a new type of financial education that they’ve never seen before… It’s simple. It’s honest. It’s detailed.
To my knowledge, this is the only project of its kind in the world and the response has been mind-boggling…Within the first 7 days, over 250,000 people from more than 65 countries would tune in to hear our message.
Within the first 60 days, over 10,000 members would join our cause.
And today…
Well today it is different… The Elevation Group has become something much more than a website about money and investing…
You see, the greatest blessing of the financial crisis is that it’s awakened the world to the unequivocal amount of corruption and fraud that has taken over our financial markets and political centers. The very concept and validity of money is coming into question by the masses who have been brainwashed by a fiat system designed to enslave them into life-long debt.
People are tired of their wealth being stolen by banks.They are tired of eating genetically modified foods filled with sugar, chemicals, and pesticides. They are tired of losing their rights to a government that would have them live in fear.
And the end result of this awakening is that the people of the world – from Egypt, to Syria, to Iran, to China, to Europe, and to the US, are beginning to see the truth, and as a result, they have lost the one thing that matters most… Trust.
They have lost trust in the system, and in their leaders. Everything that comes out of Washington or the Federal Reserve is considered a lie by default today.
No one believes anything that comes out of the major media outlets or out of Washington, and that is the signal that an era is ending, and that the most important choice of our lives has to be made…
We as a nation, and as freedom loving people around the world, can come together and hold these people accountable for selling out our country…
We can re-establish the integrity, ethics, rights, freedoms, and values that America was founded upon, and that have given dark corners of the world hope for the past 200 years.
Or we can do nothing… And as a result, we can watch the last great symbol of freedom and democracy fall to the looters, liars, and thieves of the world.
Neighbor will be turned against neighbor, more people will be sent to prison or war in the name of profit, capitalism and free markets will die, and the rule of law will be replaced with bribery and fraud.
The Elevation Group has become one of the primary hubs around the world where good people, who know the difference between right and wrong, and who desire to live in freedom and prosperity, have come to gather and empower themselves.
After all, what good does it do if you learn how to produce incredible wealth during these times of economic chaos, only to find yourself living in a corrupt, authoritarian society once the dust settles?
Ultimately, we as individuals must become the change we wish to see in the world. Collectively our vision creates the future, and I have vision for this nation…
I envision an America that once again values the inalienable rights and freedoms set forth in the Constitution.
I envision a new generation of children who sit down at the table each day to eat fresh, organic, locally grown foods.
I envision a school system that teaches students how to become leaders… If not of other men, then a leader of themselves so they are no longer willing dependents of a welfare society … Students who are empowered with the ability to manage their own money, who understand the difference between right and wrong, and who can teach their children these same values.
My goal within the next 7 years is to create a new private school system because the problems we face today are simply battles in a war for this country’s soul. And if we’re going to win the war for freedom and prosperity, we must start at the beginning with the hearts and minds of our children.
I envision an America where capitalism is once again respected as a badge of honor, and where free markets are the playing field of men instead of machines.
But most of all, I envision this country with leaders in Washington, who wake up every single morning and ask themselves one question…
“How can I empower the people of America to become the best that they can be?”
And when that happens, America will once again hold a torch of hope over the world…
This is The Elevation Group… I invite you to join us. Click here to learn more…
Sincerely,

Mike Dillard
