Here's the problem

Big dog, you sarcastically asked if anyone is getting rich off these things.
Problem #1 is the getting rich part. Very few will get rich at anything but many could make some money. There are a lot of naive people (stupid) that feel there is a magic bullet that will make them rich just by buying a course. They receive some possibly good info and do nothing and when they don't get "rich", they call it a scam. Most of this stuff has some good info and usually costs about the same as a book at the bookstore ($30-50). Without taking some action, nothing will happen.
Problem #2 is it's always someone else's fault they don't succeed.
Problem #3 is that the infomercials are lead generators for an upsell. Some worthwhile,some not. If you can't say no and keep your credit card in your wallet when the upsell calls, don't respond.
Problem #4 is that all businesses require marketing and infomercials are some of the finest marketing examples there are. I love infomercials and occasionally buy stuff from them.
Problem #5. People spend many $1000s on a college education without a guarantee of a job and few get rich. Because it's "in the box" thinking, no one would ever call that a rip-off even though many promises are made about how you'll be a success with a degree. In actuality, you learn how to get a job and then be downsized and outsourced.I'm not sayingone shouldn't get a college education but like all these other things, have realistic expectations.
Now, I'm not rich, but I do make enough money from this kind of stuff that I don't go to a job.
Some things I have bought and found worth the investment for knowledge gained are:
Don LaPre's little classified ads. Lots of good info on marketing and how to use ads to market your business.
Russ Dalbey's Winning in the cash flow business. Very good basic course on the paper business. This is a very tough business though and I recommend all read phillyflash's post just above.
The ebay one, not sure if it's Mike Enos. Using what I learned from this course only, I sold about $1000 worth of stuff laying around in 1 month. Ebay is not my business but I'd say that this course was the major factor in that success.
I do creative real estate and got started through a Russ Whitney infomercial. I, personally, would not recommend him, but that's a long story. I do strongly recommend Ron LeGrand who has infomercials as being the real deal.His teachings have enabled me to be where I am but, let me emphasize, I AM NOT RICH!!!
To bring this all together, many infomercial opportunities legitimate opportunities.I feel that most of what I see could produce some income.
