@@tsensuke5259 Right, but the math also includes how much time and money it takes to run the newsletter. Your primary gig is making $125,000 an hour. If you can’t do that because you’re busy writing a newsletter you got to think about the opportunity cost. I mean, I guess maybe you can just fire off an email in 5 minutes so it makes sense that way. But they had these huge businesses with all these employees to sell a product for a fraction of what they would have made working on something else. It just seems weird.

Interesting. Stansberry was part of Bill Bonner's Agora Financial group and Bill definitely predicted the 2008 crash as far back as at least 2006. I was one of Bill's subscribers and I remember having an argument in December 2006 (at a wedding) with a banker where I predicted the 2008 crash based on Bill's writings.

I should clarify that people need to be very careful of which information they follow on the Internet. Back in the early days of web based financial services, it was common for small groups of "researchers and professional chart technicians" to release information and predictions based on their "findings" and unfortunately these were just schemes to suck the unwitting general public into taking the other side of the scammer's trades. With the ineptitude of the current SEC, this type of bogus info dissemination is all over the place today, and you need to REALLY be careful. No one knows WHY markets move unless they know the very specific people who have the money and motivation to actually do it(and those people do exist), so trusting random internet "experts" in clown clothes is dangerous.

Why would anybody tell you how to make money with a full, proof system if they can do it using their own savings. If it's that good these people would be wealthier than Buffet.

[@MrGarysugarman]

And if too many people find out about such a thing, then its value as a "secret" is diminished greatly.

[@Tragicmagicshow]

I was unfamiliar with Stansberry Research, but I'm quite familiar with Moneywise and some of those other subsidiaries like Brownstone. Moneywise always posts trash articles on Yahoo! Finance and elsewhere that pretend to be news about a current topic or event but end up being useless listicles. Then there are the ads from Brownstone and the other subs that claim Jeff Brown is the wealthiest, most brilliant visionary in all of finance, despite no one knowing who he is. I associate that entire brand with clickbait.

Ive always asked the people who have solved the mystery of getting rich and wanting to share it with me (we arent sleeping together so why would they share ?) Why don't you borrow tons of money and do it yourself,why do you need my money? They never get back with an answer.The same experts who have been wrong for the last 20 years and never provide any info that is actionable are usually the ones going on about it.Members of the US Senate who only trade on insider info and have all become millionaires while being politicians never share any info and never bother trying to sign me up for their insights.

[@MrGarysugarman]

The couple I have heard give an answer spew something like, "I got tired of the toxic environment on Wall St. and making money for the uber rich. I decided I'd share my know-how with the everyday person and this has given me much more peace of mind of and gratification." The only thing missing is the violin background music.

[@markhirstwood4190]

Buy the index. That's it. Anything else is a lie for fees. Not my advice, Warren Buffett says it, 'Stay out of debt, have savings, ignore the experts and buy the index through thick and thin.' 8% a year indefinitely may not sound great, but it works.

[@WWG1WWGA]

what is the index, if you dont mind.

[@me-myself-i787]

​​​@@WWG1WWGAPresumably the S&P 500, through an ETF such as SPY. That's the one Warren Buffet always recommends (although he recommends VOO instead of SPY, presumably because of the slightly lower expense ratio).

I used to get their news letter, but I dropped them and stuck with real estate. I made millions over the course of time in real estate. I never lost a dime over the last 55 years in real estate. In fact, I made more during the great recession than any other period.

[@GillianKleiser]

Just as a curiosity, in 2005 during one of my economics classes ( as an uni undergrad student) the topic was the looming economic crisis in the USA caused by risk caused by large quantities of bad loans taken by major financial institutions related to housing and mortgages. This was discussed as a known and understood issue among academics at the time, my professor even implied and discussed the inability of other states to dig the USA out of their financial issues because no other economy is big enough to bail out the us banks. Since the causes were well known, the situation was so clear to be studied in universities in the UK, how come nobody did anything??? I always found incredible to believe this crisis was nothing other than planned and wanted by large operators that made billions in the process getting rid of weaker competitors and siphoning even more money out of governments and pension funds.

[@MrGarysugarman]

Courtesy of the scam that was the founding of The Federal Reserve - which is neither "federal" nor a "reserve". The orchestrator of every boom and bust and the devaluing of the dollar to the tune of about 94% since its inception in 1913. Check out "The Creature from Jekyll Island", by G. Edward Griffin for the history of all this and the wars it and central banks before it have caused.

[@sneaky-soft7848]

This is true of smaller channels too. Anybody putting out good independent content typically also has to advertises to make money. For investment channels this can be stuff like micro-cap mining stocks. I actually prefer that a channel is advertising something outrageous like Scottish Titles or Fleshlight. Let me know that it's a paid ad and not what you really think.

"highly regulated".....look at vacuum cleaner saleman Gordon Belfort: he and his sales crew in NJ simply outright IGNORED the so called "rules". He never was on so callled "Wall Street", he's a salesman and once he had your money, simply refused to return it.

[@jasonbourneistreadstone]

Jordan Belfort. You mixed him with Gordon Gekko (fictional) from one of my favorite movies, "Wall Street". And you're right: He just outright ignored the rules and also, based on my research, some of those pump-and-dumps he did on the penny stocks were mob "honey pot" investors and he got his cut as well and they knew when to get out, etc. Amazingly, he never went to prison. The movie was also excellent, btw. with Leonardo DiCaprio.

[@DanR-kc1yt]

Jordan Belfort started doing cryptocurrency seminars two or three years ago. That told me everything I needed to know about that market. It's the new penny stock boiler room pump and dump scam.
