I complained to Stansbury Research about their arrogant and incessant marketing practices, and their ridicule of me becasue I chose not to subscribe to one of their more expensive services. Their response was to cancel my subsritption to SIA and refund the unused portion (about 10 months). I’ve been a subscriber for more than 3 years but now apparently I’m not deemed worthy of their services. Interesting approach to doing business, wouldn’t you say. Bottom line, if you plan on subscribing to any of S&A’s services, be prepared to be deluged with never ending emails soliciting you to purchase addtional… Read More »
Excellent source of investigative material. I’ll recomended!
I subscribed for a while but I did not understand
much what is their reason to recommend.
When I tried to cancel by e-mail, they said they do not accept thru e-mail, I have to phone them.
I called to take off auto renewal setting on all
subscriptions but they did only one subscription.
So I called to cancel all subscriptions to end.
Have used them past eight years. Well worth modest annual fee. Very satisfied with my results. Few recommendations went south, most have been profitable. Great write ups and recommends firm stops losses. If you folow the metal recommendations you would have done fine.
Despite the advertising, which is obnoxious, the newsletter itself is very well written and researched. I made more money by many times than the cost and learned more about investing from this newsletter than anything else i’ve ever done. But really, if all you do is read the advertising and listen to the videos you’ll likely feel like it’s junk. His newsletters all come with money back guarantee (with a 10 % honesty fee, my words not his) so they are very little risk. He’s been ahead of the game on many many large market trends. Yes there have been… Read More »
They are full of themselves. He is the doom and gloom king and his track record of stock picks sinks…..
I’ve followed Steve Sjugerrud on their staff for years. Done very well moving w/ his sector ETF recommendations. Stay away from the commodity moves.
Typical investment letter con. They get you in with a basic membership but then charge you astronomical fees for the better quality newsletters. Then they have an inner circle lifetime membership that’s supposed to get you access to everything they publish or ever will publish. It’s not true. They simply create spinoffs or separate corporate entities to deny new letters to their members. Oldest trick in the book.
I have subscribed for a little over two years. I am satisfied with the subscription and have done well with it. I like to use it as a “foundation” and then do some of my own due diligence to make up my mind. I don’t blindly follow it, but I have been pretty successful with the picks I have followed.
Oh soooooo much hyperbole. But usually fun and informative.
I have subscribed to SIA for about 4 years now. I also subscribe to a couple of other Stansberry publications. I very much enjoy Mr. Stansberry’s writing and analysis and have profited significantly from his recommendations. I sort of pick and choose which recommendations I buy (I don’t have infinite money) but I’ve done very well on what I have bought. I thought Shopify was the most ridiculous recommendation ever (he sells his razor there) but man has that puppy made me a lot of money. This newsletter has paid for itself many times over in my experience.
Bought a lifetime subscription to several Standberry newsletters for $1500 in 2012.NowThey want more money. I thought lifetime was lifetime
I agree……..LOL
I first heard Porter Stansberry many years ago at an investor conference. At the time I had made a big chunk of change by anyone’s standards, so I thought I could do better. Well, people do change and become wiser through health or other issues. I remember his spiel, so recently I listened to several of his radio talk shows…and loved them all. Afterwards, I decided to try one or two of his products. So far, each pick has been good; subsequently, I’ve decided that he is a straight shooter and a man with integrity. I only wish his offices… Read More »
HAHA, sounds familiar.
A “straight shooter and a man with integrity.” Are you serious Clark? He was charged with fraud by the FBI and fined 1 million dollars. Additionally, he has refused to cooperate with authorities investigating the death of his “best friend.” Check out Unsolved Mysteries on Netflix and you may reconsider your evaluation of his character. I am not saying he is guilty of anything in Rey Rivera’s death but his lack of cooperation is concerning at best.
Of any newsletter I have followed (a lot), Porter seems to have the best results. Still nothing to write home about but he says up fronts that these are a hedge. He’s not looking to get rich on shorts or long puts. He writes well, does his research, and has a good track record.
I subscribe to several Stansberry publications and am happy with the results. One thing I particularly appreciate is Porter’s and others educational articles which have helped me better think through my investing activities. I give them an “A” for general and even specific investing education. I’m glad I subscribe to the newsletters they send me.
I’ve been a Stansbury subscriber for about 8 years and thoroughly enjoy his writing. He often will give you a long lesson in history to make a point which I personally find both interesting and entertaining as well as informative. He does his homework and is usually right although his timing is far from perfect. Here is what he’s good at: identifying “capitol efficient companies” . These are “Buffett” picks like Coca Cola, Hershey, McDonalds etc., where they don’t have to constantly invest capitol to compete or grow. These are “forever” stocks. These are all really fabulous investments that are… Read More »
My experience is that most Stansbery recommendatons are relatively conservative. Those who say they’ve done well with this group need to factor in what has been happening with the overall market during this time. It has been up, up, up. So is it Stansvberry that is so great or is it the fact that one is long in this bull market? Yes, they always want more money. Travis will be glad to know that they are getting very little from me. I did subscribe to a Gilder report when offered way cheap this year and so do have his ‘portfolio’… Read More »
