How to Stop Being a Loser from 2011 is a British comedy film directed by Dominic Burns. This movie follows the life of James (Simon Phillips), a terminally unsuccessful man who spends his days at his job as a copywriter, dreaming of big things but never actually going after them. James' friends, Yemi (Craig Conway) and Samantha (Gemma Atkinson), want to help him turn his life around. However, after an embarrassing encounter with James’ boss, the three friends realize that James needs a drastic change in his life if he is ever going to be successful.

The trio decides to attend a personal development course called "Get Rich Quick" led by a charismatic motivational speaker (Richard E. Grant). The course promises to teach them the secrets of success and wealth but with a catch - it costs a lot of money.

Throughout the course, James, Yemi, and Samantha encounter a variety of colorful characters who are also trying to change their lives. From a former athlete to a woman who wants to find her inner goddess, they all share a belief that this course will be their salvation.

As the course progresses, James slowly begins to believe that maybe he can turn his life around and take his destiny into his own hands. However, things quickly spiral out of control when they learn that the course is actually a scam and that the charismatic leader is a fraud.

The trio of friends are left with nothing and must quickly figure out how to get their money back before the scam artist disappears forever.
