Matt Biadali is pitching investments in companies mandated to pay so called “freedom Checks” in January 2018… any idea what companies these are?
Here are the Symbols for each.
SJT
CTT
SXCP
PBA
SBR
Good luck
So these are basically dividen paying companies ?
This pitch is for the 26(f) scam. Travis debunked it thoroughly here: https://www.stockgumshoe.com/reviews/money-map-report/explaining-26f-programs-and-the-retirement-blackout-on-april-10-teased-by-keith-fitz-gerald/
Can’t find the 5recommended stock picks for the ‘freedom checks’ where are they at???
They are MLPs. Matt actually has a website that describes it all.
https://freedomchecks.com/
Are the returns he’s speaking about in his add actual returns for real people?
For all the comments made and all the articles, none of them tell you the minimum investment you must make. Does anyone know?
They are MLPs … you pretty much buy them like other stocks. To get the returns he speaks about, you would have to invest tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands. But you can get started with as much as you want … a few thousand bucks. So, his video is extreme, but the core message is correct. These pay out 6% or so on average. There are tax implications though, so check that out some. You have to fill out a K-1 form. SJT … San Juan Royalty … pays 8% for example. If commodities continue to go up, these investments should also go up. Matt, by the way, has a whole portfolio of other investments. All natural resources. It looks pretty solid overall.
Dividends paid out as of today are 9.93 for SJT per share, 4.43 for CTT, 12.71 for SXCP, 5.44 for PBA and 5.44 for SBR.
is this a scam? Does anyone know?
Yes, I’m afraid it’s a scam. I never give up even one penny of money to anyone or any entity I don’t have thorough knowledge about. So when I see something like this Freedom Checks thing, I take a lot of time to research it before jumping in. My research on this has led me to believe that this will end up actually costing you much more than what you’ll get back out of it. One of the comments above actually gives a link to a site that explains it and debunks it. Please don’t fall for this!
Has any one sign up for the Freedom Checks?
Wonder if its working for any one,
It doesn’t make sense. He says there are 568 companies in this program, but expect to get 44 checks of varying amounts. It’s not a government program, but it sure looks like he’s holding a government check. Something doesn’t sound right.
hello, i am Dan from the Midwest. i joined MR. BADIALI’S GROUP. but after payment i got an email with information on freedom check companies. BUT 15 MINUTES later the email was recalled and a bill saying i did not pay the $79.00 membership or my cc was not working. That is not true. MY credit card works great
but i authorized $49.00 not $79,00 i was billed. Regardless I bought some of each of the stocks Matt B. recommended and to date I have not seen a freedom check. The stock is up about 1%. It appears you must invest $1000’s of dollars to make money on these stocks. I guess $ my $100’s weren’t enough for “FREEDOM CHECKS”.
This is one mans results after trying the path given by M>B>
Think about it…If I was a savoy investor and had knowledge to invest my money in Freedom Checks and make huge amounts of money. Why would I want to worry with selling a petty 49.00 news letter. This speaks volumes; there is a better return selling the petty news letters
Man, it absolutely floors me that people are so gullible!!
I guess I shouldn’t be after all this time but I still give people too much credit.
And this allows scumbags like Matt Biadali (I’m sure that’s not his real name) to take advantage of gullible people!
STOP IT!
People DO NOT run ads to give money away! OK? Ever! No this is not an exception…nor is the next one. There are no exceptions to this rule.
They run ads to GET MONEY! Legit businesses offer a product or service in exchange for the money. Scumbags like Biadali offer a scam instead. They take your money and offer NOTHING of value in exchange.
Now, to the Freedom Checks ad specifically. My read on this is that it’s not JUST a scam ad. This ad is SO blatant in it’s scamminess that’s it’s my suspicion that they are not REALLY trying to push the current scam, but are actually trying to get a list of people and their contact info who are EXTREMELY gullible. And then they will sell those names to other scammers and use them for themselves to target them with future scams that normal people would not fall for.
Just step back and notice a few things: first, the ridiculous “Southern” or hillbilly accent that was so over the top that it sounded like a joke; Second, he then goes on to say that some guy named “Ted” or whatever got a check for $24,000!!! with the implication that it was free just for the asking. This HAS TO weed out at least 99% of people hearing it or more and all that could be left or the SUPER gullible. And to scummy liars and thieves, identifying really easy targets is worth its weight in gold sadly.
So, please, if you were fooled by this, wise up! There is lots of cultural wisdom about there being “no free lunch” or if “it sounds too good to be true it probably is”. These are old sayings because they are TRUE and always have been true!
And help educate someone else if you can. Try to reduce the number of sheep that these wolves can so easily devour. Be a sheepdog!
*END OF RANT*
You said it well Todd
I paused the video to do some research. Thanks for slap upside the head, Todd. I already knew better, but must admit that the man had my attention. Whew.
Would love to get that SOB in a room for ten minutes
