You're a bit late to the party mate, finance questions already answered and no $2000 is cheap for what you get (before you ask what that is, just go and look it up yourself on the McGuire homepage, so I don't "spam" things that have been said before) As for support - again, look into the McGuire Programme. Support includes, physical support groups all over the world, personal coaching, Skype support groups, free one day Refresher courses, and free attendance of as many Intensive courses as you desire (or sometimes max $100 if the city has severely expensive venue hire fees) We don't compare to speech therapy, that's the whole point. Where is the research of how successful speech therapy is over any alternatives? There is none either - which is sad, because there isn't much research into stuttering in general, compared to many other disorders. Is it proven to be effective? Well tens of thousands people all over the world who swear by it would say so. Instead shitting all over a post that is meant to show people there is a way like a lonely grump, go and try the programme for yourself. Until you have even done a drop of research instead of being a troll, your opinion is worthless.
