The problem with Profits Unlimited is that most of Paul’s best ideas require you to pay more money and sometimes a lot more.
Really. It seems as though the sheer volume of usable info to spam to (ratio) must be below 10%. not only that but the ‘usable info’ is disguised as a long winded video with even more advertisement & upsell. This is clear from making the effort (time) to find that supposed gem under the haystack.
The good part? … It’s inexpensive (but is all your time worth that miniscule wisdom)
The Bang for the buck is terrible.
I have taken Profits Unlimited for nearly 2 years. My money is limited but it made me about 40% in 2017. I have less to invest in 2018 thanks to bad genes. Up until Oct.2018 I was up about 12% but as of 11/3/2018 I am about even. MU is down about 30% so I’ll buy MU a bit better than planned. Paul rates > 4.5. Banyan Hill is pushey. Paul has 4 newsletters vs 2 a year ago. We will see how that works out.
In my 25+ years of investing I have always used an advisement service. Paul is by far the best growth stock picker that I have encountered. Since many stocks are smaller companies they are more volatile than larger companies, so be prepared for that. We are in a down market since October, so we should expect any portfolio to be down, with Paul’s down more in the short term; however when the market turns these stock will also rise more quickly than most.
Profits Unlimited is touted a means to help the little guy but when Paul recommends a stock, the majority are well out of reach to help the little guy. Does anyone else feel the same?
Yes, see my comment.
I’ve been a subscriber for almost two years and in that time I’ve made some money plus or minus 15K BUT most of that was made on Formation Medicine which sold out to Roche Ind. I also held STM and it is in the negative column either I missed the sell signal or there never was one. Lately my feeling is disenchantment. I expected more from him based on his background….. Brought up in India as a humble guy, not sure if that is still the case. Still have several picks but with the current market it’s too early to… Read More »
Ever notice how some/certain people have an aire of confidence and conviction? You follow them up the rosy path but in the end they really dont know any more than the next guy. (Obviously this is a sometimes / certain people observation). I think this is one of them. Regarding the number of new newsletters – this is an obvious pattern along with the “Lifetime” suubscription (scam if I might be so bold). The ploy which is barely veiled is to phase the low cost letter out into pure pablum next year and put the intel you thought you wrer… Read More »
Dear Lenranth, You posted some points that I had not thought of. Well done! I was wondering why Mampilly would have offered a lifetime subscription for such an allegedly low price. But of course! There is no restriction on his putting out , as you called it, “pure pablum” in future issues, while at the same time painting a big bulls eye on our backs to Banyan Publishing for an infinite amount of upselling and promotional emails.! Thank you . I wish I could have thought of that myself! But it is probably over my pay grade.
I came into the game in September of 2018 probably the worst time to enter into the market with the horrible transactions over these past 4 months. I interested in AMD and I’m taking a beating with that investment (-30+%) and some of the other recommendations are negative while others are doing pretty well. I know that the tech sector is volatile let alone the controversy with US China trade issues, but I believe in the technology. Let’s face it we are not going to backwards in technological advances. As a result I’m standing by my investments because the companies… Read More »
I have been with both of Paul’s Extreme Profits and Profits Unlimited for about 2 years. Both have found some big winners (>50%), but there are many recommendations, so the others can nip away at the overall profits of one’s account. I find his advice on position sizing useful, but all his advertising about people making big bucks on his recommendations, at least from my calculations, indicates they made large investments and got lucky on the big winners. Not exactly full disclosure. I have used 3 of the authors from Banyan, Paul has been the best, Carr’s option plays have… Read More »
Mixed feelings. He recommends some very expensive stocks, most over $100 a share, some over $200 a share, so unless you are “money bags” it is a little uncomfortable buying in 100 share lots. I have purchased some of the stocks under $50 a share in 100 share lots and they have not done so well.
I am in several levels of the Paul Mampilly stock dream,But, it has been more of a nightmare than a dream. I am not going into specifics although I surely could. I am to say the least less than happy with the stocks I have purchased with Paul’s endorsement! I have around 15 stocks with about 30k invested and for the most part i have only lost money! I went heavily into the blockchain investment that according to Paul was going to make us all rich and it like the others has performed poorly. I no longer answer any emails… Read More »
It’s all a bunch of hype and to get you to spend more money! Good luck trying to recoup your money! I bought into their hype as well as a few others a couple years ago and wound up dropping all of my newsletters and subscriptions to the hype get rich quick and cut my losses. Good luck to you!!
He starts out hyping less costly stocks at a reasonable subscription price; then, he offers a new “secret” which involves a higher priced stock, and subscription price; as long as you continue to subscribe to the offers, the higher the subscription cost goes for the next one, which is for a higher priced stock. This goes on until you’ve had enough. Then he passes you to the next shyster. As an aside, the most expensive pitch I ever received was not from Mampilly; it was from a woman (I wish I could remember her name,) who offered me a “black… Read More »
I’ve been a member of P/U for about 18 months & I won’t renew. I bought this as an entry level service expecting to see lower priced stocks in my price range but lately almost all picks are priced triple digits. I think he has diluted his product by adding more & more services- all high priced so P/U gets the leavings. Also I’m sick of his constant harping to join them.
I am a member of Profits Unlimited and True Momentum. I’ve written about Paul’s newsletters before, but I wanted to update with actual/real numbers. If this breaks a rule, sorry. I wish more of the reviews were quantified. I like to compare the stock tips provided by the newsletters against what I would have earned had I just invested in the S&P 500, same time/same amounts/cash on cash returns. For Profits Unlimited I am up 43.1% since joining, the S&P is up 12.6% cash on cash deployed comparison. For True Momentum I am up 56.6%, versus the S&P 7.5%. Overall,… Read More »
I have signed up for several of their services. Paul, Matt and Jeff to be exact. Boy, what a disappointment. I do all my own investing and thought I might get an idea or two from them -wrong. All they do is try to sell you something else.
I agree. They get you to bite on their cheap news letter,And then tell you that if you want the big gains,that you will have to upgrade to this big expensive news letter. I am very disappointed in Paul.. I really thought that he might be in it for the little guy .Boy was I mistaken .All he’s in it for is the money! He is no different than the rest of them!
I am not educated when it comes to trading and investing, and started in April of 2019 to educate myself. I didn’t know where to start (although maybe night classes would have been the most logical place.) I almost immediately fell into the “hype” world, starting with Mampilly, which put me in the Banyon orbit. I didn’t realize, as I was passed from one shill to the next for an embarrassingly long time, that this world of predators existed. Thank God I was finally rescued by the one true seer dedicated to exposing these shysters for what they are. Yes,… Read More »
AMEN !!!
