I do food storage so that in the event I loose my job and or something happens I cant work anymore then I will have fod to hold me over for about a year. I dont know Kellene Bishop although I did see her on doomsday preppers but she is doing nothing more then others on prepper issues. If folks do not see the prices of food sky rocketing and the loss of jobs everyday then thats on them but I will continue to prep.... Not for anything other economic reasons. I also have a ccw and own guns since the violence in the world is worse then ever . This is my choice ... main thing I am saying is watch the food prices and watch tv on all the murders and break ins happening.. that should be enough to make you want to start prepping.Always Prepparedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03313567006150625025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-30844268313129985152012-06-03T09:59:31.151-07:002012-06-03T09:59:31.151-07:00National Geographic's inane show, Doomsday Pr...National Geographic's inane show, Doomsday Preppers, not only showcased the Bishops', but endorsed their lifestyle, and even their character.

It will at least provide some closure and<br />satisfaction to those who invested so much time and energy with Commercial Career and who<br />have lost so much. Once the site is up and the blog is running it will spread like wildfire.<br /><br />That being said, I would like to see all of us be successful in some area of this business. Kellene<br />did one thing – she convinced us all to get out of Residential lending and jump into Commercial.<br />That was not a bad thing however her greed got the best of her and she could no longer keep up<br />with all of her lies. Kellene and Scott took a lot of money from a lot of people but I would not<br />trade places with them for a minute. They took our money but they can’t take our integrity.<br />Here is what I believe:<br /><br />1. 1. Scott and Kellene lead a shallow, miserable existence full of stress and<br />insecurity.<br />2. 2. They keep inventing new ways to take more money from more people.<br />3. 3. We will never see a dime come back from them – our money is gone. They<br />have told me that they are going to use our own money to defend themselves in court.<br />4. 4. All we can do is try and help others learn from our mistakes by just telling<br />the truth of our experience. This is just a public information forum.<br />5. 5. Scott and Kellene will get what is coming to them – maybe not in this world<br />but the next.<br /><br />Here is what I would like to do:<br /><br />I want to hear from real people who have closed real deals and find out what they did and how<br />they did it. I have learned a lot over the past 18 months and I am sure all of you have as well.<br />The Commercial industry has changed. Money for projects is quickly drying up however, deals<br />are still getting done. I would like to see us start a Success Track website or group where we can<br />learn from each other and maybe finish what Kellene started. She got us all together to form an<br />association of Commercial Originators, and by the way, we can send her all of our deals wrapped<br />in bows with chocolate bars so she can charge our clients Six Figure fees and then take half of the<br />profit when they close. Forget about Kellene – we still have that association of good talented<br />people.<br /><br />What if we just went back to the basics of working on getting some good deals and working with<br />good lenders? We are a group of smart successful business people who don’t need someone like<br />Kellene Bishop to read us a bunch of Dan Kennedy books on conference calls.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-55019595019386492012011-10-26T19:46:45.804-07:002011-10-26T19:46:45.804-07:00Please scan your contract and put it on

She would act like she was your best friend in the world. Then she'd make endless promises to her us and she never once delivered. We were promised 3-month reviews and raises on our six-figure salary (that we never saw happen), profit sharing in each transaction for projects we worked on, a trip to Florida & custom built office themes. <br /><br />While I was there not one employee ever got a raise. There were 4 client transactions that I was aware of that we should have received bonuses on, there were countless training sessions held that we helped prepare for and percentages of the profits had been promised to her employees. <br /><br />At every opportunity she pocketed the money. <br /><br />She lied countless times to her clients over the phone while I was in the room and would make claims that were absurd exaggerations at best about her success and what great things were going on in the company. <br /><br />Every time she made a promise to us she would have to break it and she couldn't ever be the bad guy. She would hide behind her husband who was a habitual gun-toting psychopath. And he would deliver the bad news. <br /><br />I'm also convinced that she had the office bugged because she would bring up inner office issues that happened behind closed doors and with out her present and minutes later would call us in to her office and try and address that very issue. <br /><br />She claimed to be lead by the holy spirit on countless occasions. I am left to wonder if she suffered from some sort of mental disorder where she was confusing the greedy voices in her head for divine revelation. <br /><br />I hope that she gets the help she needs. Preferably in some sort of lock-down facility. <br /><br />I feel sorry for anyone who has ever done business with her or worked for her. <br /><br />Is it any wonder why all of her employees walked out on her? <br /><br />Faye. <br />( not my real name ) <br /><br />Ps. I went by the old office not too long ago in Provo and it looked like a ghost town. So I'm wondering if she got court ordered to have her scam shut down. <br />by fayewinters September 23, 2009 11:59 AMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-32673858499938584112011-03-24T10:24:38.136-07:002011-03-24T10:24:38.136-07:00I don't "read between the lines"? t...I don't "read between the lines"? those links were offered by you to support the position that the corn harvest in 2010 was a failure; it wasn't, and all of the applicable links in fact claim the opposite; that the corn harvest in 2010 was a record breaker. <br /><br />Texas may have a drought; the wheat harvest in russia DID fail last year and commodity prices rose as a result; ethanol production was ramped up by 100,000,000 (one hundred million) bushels and that reduced the carryover (unsold) surplus... all of that is immaterial.

There's no way to convince you when your head is in the sand, so I won't bother trying anymore.<br />By the way, Bloomberg had yet another article on today about Texas having a drought that is affecting wheat and beef prices, which then affect corn prices and supplies, but, hey, no worries, everything is fine. Don't worry about anything and you'll be just fine. You can come up with an explanation for anything you would like, but it doesn't make it so.<br /><br />As for Anon's comments: Really?

I did, and I think you should, too. they're your links, after all: <br /> <br />#1: Says that the USDA downgraded the 2010 crop from the 2nd biggest EVER RECORDED to the THIRD biggest EVER RECORDED. Kellene has claimed that the the 2010 corn crop was a failure. This directly contradicts Kellenes statements. <br /> <br />#2: The forecast was lowered on the crop, and no shortage was expected, although unsold reserves would dip. That's partially because we used 4 billion bushels of corn for ethanol. That's not a food shortage, or a crop failure, either. Directly contradicts Kellene. <br /> <br />#3: People complained about the USDA revising its estimates for the corn harvest. People complain all the time about all sorts of stuff. Watched a weather report lately? Believed it? <br /> <br />#4: Summary: The USDA revised its estimates of SURPLUS, UNSOLD corn (carryout). No crop failure, no shortage. Directly contradicts Kellene. <br /> <br />#5: repeat of #4, different website. <br /><br />So far I'm going to stick to my basic premise: Kellene claimed, apparently erroneously, that the USA corn crop last year failed, when by all accounts it's either the 2nd biggest harvest EVER, or the third. Either way, it was a record harvest. <br /><br />When confronted with this, Kellene chose to refuse to back up her statements with any facts, and made it personal. In my book, she's last on the list of people that I'd trust the opinion on as far as food supplies goes. <br /><br />As I said, I'm open to some sort of refutation, but I'm not seeing it. <br /><br />Take the time to research your links instead of spamming a google search.Bruce Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995706761794063165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-10280979013382464772011-03-23T11:12:56.893-07:002011-03-23T11:12:56.893-07:00The comment "her goldfish named Mooky" w...The comment "her goldfish named Mooky" was made by Scott Bishop.

Yet you allow others to post their crap on your board when their crap doesn't have anything to do with farming. So, all that proves is that you're an idiot that allows other idiots to post crap on your board without checking it out. That makes you nothing if not just another hack on a website. I think I'll go post a few things on some other websites about you and your board just so you can see how easy it is to defame someone without any proof. Laughable.<br /><br />Second, you asked for proof about the corn harvest from last year. Since you don't know how to look at both sides of an issue, below are just a very few of the links to stories about corn for last year, all telling the same tale. Of course, you could just as easily have done your own Google search to find these, but that is obviously beyond you. And, yes, I'll say it again, you won't dare to post this because it doesn't fit with your alternate reality. There, now you have your excuse not to post since you were looking for one.<br /><br />http://www.wallacesfarmer.com/story.aspx/iowa/corn/and/soybean/growers/respond/to/usda/crop/report/9/42748<br /><br />http://etfdailynews.com/blog/2010/10/12/ags-go-wild-after-crop-report-corn-jjg-jja-dba-moo-cow-jjs-de-mos-mon-pot/<br /><br />http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304248704575574823708863514.html<br /><br />http://www.radioiowa.com/2010/11/09/usda-cuts-corn-crop-forecast-again/<br /><br />http://www.businessrecord.com/main.asp?SectionID=45&SubSectionID=136&ArticleID=11821<br /><br />http://cofarmbureaublog.wordpress.com/2011/02/09/usda-crop-report-u-s-corn-stocks-at-record-low-5-percent/<br /><br />This blog isn't worth the time necessary to hit the back arrow, which simply can not happen fast enough.

I am a Commercial Mortgage Broker and have taken a class taught by Scott and Kellene Bishop of Commercial Career and Beehive Commercial. They considered me one of their top referral sources and I entrusted them with my entire pipeline of business. In the last 18 months I sent them over $200,000,000 in business – all of which they said they could approve and close. They presented themselves as Underwriters with Decision Making authority and were direct with Hedge Funds on Wall Street – none of which was true.<br /><br />To “Underwrite and Approve†these loans they required that my clients pay large Up-Front Retainer Fees (Good Faith Deposits). Their contracts state that the fees are non-refundable however, they told each of my clients that they do not ask for fees unless they are confident that they can close the loan. Hearing this, my clients entered into a contract with the Bishops and paid their money.<br /><br />My clients paid $250,000 in Up-Front Fees only have their loans turned down after months of promises to close their loans. I can give you the names and numbers of all of these clients. I know of at least another $500,000 that was taken in the same manor from other clients. In addition to this, the Bishops charged close to 300 people on average $8,000 each to take their course on Commercial Lending and how to charge up-front fees and send all of our loans through them. In my estimation, the Bishops have netted over $2,000,000 in profit from this scheme and to date have not closed a single commercial loan and have not returned any fees.<br /><br />I am not asking for fee that I paid to take their course to be returned. I am asking that the $750,000 that was fraudulently taken from our clients be returned.<br /><br />Here are the facts:<br /><br />Consumers were defrauded by the Bishops and Commercial Career.<br />The Bishops made promises to perform and collected obscene amounts of money and did not perform the service that there were paid to do.<br />The Bishops have refused any an all attempts to return even a percentage of the fees they collected.<br />The Bishops are residents of Utah but have committed these acts across the entire nation.<br /><br />I know that I am not the only person to report this issue to your department but if you would like more individuals like myself to come forward I can make that happen.<br /><br />Please let me know what needs to be done to insure that no more consumers are hurt by Commercial Career and Scott and Kellene Bishop.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-85746891545036101782011-03-20T19:39:17.579-07:002011-03-20T19:39:17.579-07:00The post with all the Hmmmmmmm's was her husba...The post with all the Hmmmmmmm's was her husband Scott who is Kellene's fellow scam artist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-1775666326741847012011-03-20T19:34:40.346-07:002011-03-20T19:34:40.346-07:00The responses are obviously from Kellene Bishop.

The woman took hundreds of thousands of dollars from people who took her classes as well as her clients. She is a sham and really does reinvent herself in other industries as a different charlatan. <br /><br />The bankruptcy papers on the Ripoff Report don't lie either.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-17412506035303265562011-03-20T07:28:20.831-07:002011-03-20T07:28:20.831-07:00Bruce, as I said, I didn't see another post op...Bruce, as I said, I didn't see another post option that seemed to fit, and I'm not hating on anyone, so no I don't think I was complaining and therefore do not see any irony in posting from an anonymous account from an anonymous account. However, if you can come up with a way for me to contact you outside of this without me having to post my private contact info to the world, I would be happy to do so and have a conversation.<br /><br />I have to disagree about the USDA reports once again. I read them. They were duplicitous. The same report stated in a number of instances that we were having record crops of a particular commodity and then proceeded further in the report to tell how bad the planting, growing, and harvesting had been and would be for that crop. No mainstream media source covered this, but I found info about the USDA reports on quite a few alternative news sites as well as other blogs. As I said before, I am a cynic of governmental transparency, so when the USDA reports record crops for a commodity and in the same report gives all kinds of info about how bad things are (up to 35% crop destruction in one report that was reporting record crops... how does that work?), I simply do not believe the good news as they have a bias to give that but, on the other hand, a requirement to give the nitty gritty further into the report.<br /><br />I haven't read all of the posts on Kellene's site, so I am no expert here (though I sincerely doubt you are either), but I just didn't see much selling on her blog. As I said in my last post, I see two items being sold (a coupon class and a wheat class), neither of which seemed to be promoted much in any of the articles that I perused, or indeed on the site much either. So I just don't follow your logic there.<br /><br />Now you're saying "all those people across those years". That seems flaky to me. You portrayed in your post that you had recently happened upon her site, and now you're acting like you've been following her for years. Doesn't pass the smell test. Seems rather like a the generic comments that people make when they've been caught and are trying to get people to come around to their point of view again. Having had tough times in my life, I just don't buy into everything I read about someone on the internet, but it seems like you are doing so. I do try to get to the truth of the matter when I read something that interests me, and so far I guess I just see any truth in what has been presented here. The long and the short of it is that I'm probably done here but thought I would put in my two cents since I thought I had found a site that provided good info until I saw this post that seemed to be nothing more than a hate article. Makes me wonder about your character. If there is one thing I've learned it is that Karma is a bitch, so it's better to be nice than hateful. Just sayin...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
