I’ve watched this service for a few years. The picks were usually a stretch. I think their 2008 closing positions ended up with 12 heavy losers out of 14 closed.
Fortunately, this service is pretty cheap. It gets annoying reading all of their ridiculous hyped up teaser ads for other services. I don’t know why they think they have to use that type of marketing for their products/services. I have reviewed some of their pics and the majority of them were dead wrong, the stocks went the opposite way they thought they would. I’m going to hang in there with them and see if they come through on anything good.
If you trade contrary to the what they suggest you do you’ll probably come outa huge winner, their picks consistently do exactly the opposite of what they say. Either they’re throwing darts at the board and reccomending what they hit or they’re being paid to sell turkey’s
Taipan…Totally misunderstood. It is a “contra-pick” letter. I’ve never seen a more losing compilation of investment choices or creative terms.
I bought a 2 year membership to Safe Haven Investor. It showed promis at times, but failed to offer much different than a index fund for results.
The newsletter was better when it was called Safe Haven Investor, under the previous editor. After Andrew Snyder took over, the performance really plunged. Almost all his picks lose money. I definitely will not re-subscribe. I would suggest that you don’t waste your money.
how do i stop the charges and get rid of this
