Why are these 'investment' meetings held?

They claim to have made a lot of money and want to get you to do the same by attending their meeting. I can not understand if they have a good way to make money why do they want to share it with others?

Answers:
My boyfriend works in the industry. Always check that the company is FSA regulated (this is in the UK). If it is not , stay clear of them !The reason why they want your money is because they charge you an initial fee to enter the fund , annual management fees and exit fee. They are guaranteed to make money for themselves this way even when markets are going down. If you are rich enough to invest in a hedge fund they will even charge a performance fee , normally they will take 20% of your profits.
Can you say.pyramid scheme?
Perhaps the way they make money is to charge other people a fee for teaching them how to make a lot of money?
don't bother with that lot
