Description
Broad investing/”think rich” flagship letter that Mark Ford/Michael Masterson launched with Tom Dyson (formerly of Stansberry) back in 2011, was aimed at contrarian/alternative investments and income and has expanded focus to become a more generalist newsletter under Teeka Tiwari.
Primary focus is on “safe, income-producing assets like dividend-paying stocks”, but also recommends “off-Wall Street markets such as cryptocurrencies, real estate, and collectibles”.

This is the best overall letter that I have ever subscribed to. They recommend good stocks that are not flashy but also not likely to tank. I keep track of their portfolio and wish I had bought them all and sat on them. I would be well ahead. Especially if you have some time until retirement, I would say buy their recos and sleep nights. When retirement comes you should be in good shape.
Relatively new subscriber, but recos so far have been good.
What’s the scoop on this guy that is pitching these “daily payouts” via Daily Dividends. Asking $499 for a list of companies that pay these out. Each transaction supposedly takes 8 minutes.
Usually that kind of language means they’re recommending selling put options,
But in don’t think I’ve seen that particular ad.
I signed up for a free trial from this, which not only was completely useless information – just a bunch of introductory information wrapped up in high powered marketing….but it also wasn’t free! I immediately got billed! And then they refused to give me a refund when I asked for one! Protect your credit card information from these con artists!
I’ve subscribed to Palm Beach Letter and Palm Beach Confidential. The latter is by far the best investment newsletter I’ve subscribed to, thanks to Teak Tihari’s recommendations about cryptocurrencies. One of his recommendations has gone up over 17 times (1650%) in under three months, and is still rising, while others have gone up by 187%, 90%, 86%, etc. in the same time period, so I’m a very satisfied customer. PB Confidential was a bit expensive ($1500 minus a gift of Bitcoin worth $295 a few weeks ago) but I recouped the money in under a month.
Palm Beach Letter is not as exciting as Palm Beach Confidential, but it’s OK.
I second that. So far so good. The gift of 0.17 bitcoin at the time is worth more than the subscription cost I paid for it. Just a matter of time before we get bombarded with altcoin teasers about the next bitcoin. Even if the whole virtual currency market would go to zero tomorrow it was worth the ride, but of course I am a believer and making some income is great but seeing banks become obsolete would be better.
These comments are OLD! From 2011. Its the fall of 2017 Please update rating
The rating feature was added in 2017, so the stars are new-ish — whether folks choose to comment, we can’t control. Hopefully our redesign of the ratings pages will make them more visible and encourage more participation — thanks for the note.
They do open up your mind to broader asset classes but, like so many newsletter, they are taking well known concepts and simply rebranding them as their own. Still have mixed feelings about signing on as a permanent subscriber.
As a complete novice to cryptocurrency, everything I read was new. The writing and resources are rather confusing and disorganized, but by spending enough time to look at all they have, one comes away with enough knowledge to take part. The price seems exorbitant at first, but I got into bitcoin at $4,500 and it now is about $10000, so my investment has zeroed out already. At two months, the other coins have not yet taken off, but I suspect will be rewarded handsomely. I wish I had bought a lifetime membership, but will probably do so when the 2 year subscription runs out.
You appear to be talking about Palm Beach Confidential–the cryptocurrency publication.
I ordered their booklet for $4.95 and about a month latter received a charge on my credit card for $94.05! This is a rip=-oof – I tried to contact by phone and I could not get through so I sent them an email which they said they could not send!. Their operation sounds like a fraud where they take your money but prevent you from being able to contact them and get their advertised refund.
Well, I subscribed as an Infinity member because I really liked Mark Ford and Tom Dyson, but now it looks like they sold out to Nick and Teeka!! A lot of changes and I am not impressed any more.
The Palm Beach Letter was a great equity oriented advisory when actively edited by co-founders Mark Ford and Tom Dyson. It is no longer the case since they put Teeka Tiwari in charge. Teeka’s previous stock-based performance was mediocre. His current focus seems to be cryptocurrencies. Since I became a lifetime member for stock trading, I am no longer interested in Palm Beach. If you want stock-based advice, forget Palm Beach.
He still offers a ton of stock and equity based selections. I can think of at least 15 in the last year. One month even offered 7 equity investments at once.
Also, if you’d have purchased his crypto picks on the day they were recommended you’d have made 1,000s of %, even after the recent decline in the crypto markets during the 1st 6 months of 2018. So it’s kind of hard to complain about Teeka’s selections. I feel he’s done a great job.
ripped off big time.
they charge me 3 years after I cancelled. their customer service guy would not listen and again didn’t cancel my subscription.
disgraceful for sure
I have been a Palm Beach Letter subscriber for over two years and can say that I have been very impressed. I’ve noticed that some have said they liked Mark Ford and Tom Dyson better than Teeka Tiwari, however, I have very much enjoyed Teeka’s investment selections and advice. In 2017 his picks were up 1000s of % when you include the cryptocurrency selections. Outside of crypto his selections still beat the market averages and most are throwing off great income with fat yields. I will continue to subscribe to the PBL for as long as it is published.
At first this newsletter felt like something different. And I took a long term offer. Now it has in my opinion degenerated and I hardly any more look at it.
I bought the lifetime subscription over 7 years ago. At first I thought the letter was worth the money. not so much last few years. Received a notice last week that they had lost record of my Lifetime membership and they tried to charge me for a new annual subscription fee. Sounds like they are losing money and trying to scam old subscribers? Any one else experience this? Disgraceful!
Teeka has take over the palm beach letter for few years now and he is doing OK with it. It’s a very good entry level newsletter.
I have subscribed as – Lifetime Member- to the Palm Beach Confidential newsletter /crypto portfolio in March 2018. I paid 4.000 USD for this service. What strikes me is that almost all the recommendations are down 90% or more since my entry as a member. Some coins have no more than 3% value left from the moment they were recommended as a buy. This service does not use any TA as a tool and that is awkward . TA provides very reliable insights for entry or exit points in the long term (and that longer term is exactly where PBC aims at). Teeka Tiwari has urged people to get in the crypto market in march and April 2019 with fancy videos. Stories like ; ” time is running out to profit from the expected ‘second boom’ in Altcoins” & ” You have to act quickly” etc. . This second boom is still not playing out for Altcoins (not BTC) and probably will not happen in 2019. And if it should ever happen again most of the Altcoin Buy recommendations of the PBC portfolio will have been diminished and passed away. Most crypto’s in the PBC portfolio will probably never come alive anymore. Anyone who would have followed the recommendations is looking at severe losses. Losses that can not recover ever (no matter what crypto bull market will occur in the future. Over 95% (!!) of the coins in the PBC portfolio are to be compared with penny stocks; promising projects from the beginning, but over time these projects have passed and the abandoned dead shells are still registered on an exchange and being kept in the PBC portfolio. As of 18 September 2019 PBC is coming with a new trick: 5 coins to 5 million. They try to make you pay a sum of money to find out what coins they have for you. My advice: Do not pay any money to whatever advisory service (even not in stocks). I have a lot of experience with paid advisory services Like Palm Beach Confidential and Marin Katusa). None of the 5 have given me ANY profit over a period of 3 years. None of them. For crypto advice and insights it is best to find some good Youtubers and subscribe to their channels. Ton’s of information for free and on a regular basis. Paid advisory services are, in fact, like -unwanted- middle man; they make money on thin air providing advice that will not make you any profit. And if profits were to be made; you can achieve that all the same if not much better and much more efficient by using Google and Youtube. And that will be free of any charge. Sorry. The advisory service that will make you rich and great profits does not exist. These services exist with only one purpose; making profit on your subscription money. So they profit from you. While you lose money.
Why would they charge you $5000 a year for the news letter if they can make 17,490% profit on there crypto halvings? Seems to me they need alot of money fast from fools like me who throw out money at any snake oil salesman!
Palm Beach Letter is all about diversification. Apparently an audited review of the newsletter says it has an average return of 154% per year. The thing is that there are not many people who actually enjoyed these returns mainly because some recommendations are more work than just the click of a button. Like investing in alternative asset classes like vintage cars, art, gold coins etc require effort and we all know how lazy we are. Well I am. But if you are willing to do an extra step then I think this is a very good value for money newsletter.
utter rubbish avoid these con me like the plague, a frog could make better predictions and be far more intelligent. They will never answer any questions you have and if they say they do they are lying, they use fake people and actors to trick you in to paying them money. Bad news and should be locked up.
