Is WSO Academy A Scam?

Heard both good and bad things about them. I know that many people can break into IB without the help of these services, but I just want to know whether WSO Academy is a scam. Whether it's worth the investment.

Thanks in advance.

To be honest there is no shortage of info out there. You can look up pretty much anything on internet but the hard part is finding what’s actually useful and figuring out how to really learn it. Thus the need for online courses such as WSO Academy. You are not paying for stuff you could just Google but you are paying for everything to be laid out in a super organized, easy-to-digest way without wasting time. Time Value of Money my friend.
