Porter Stansberry is a very compelling storyteller. He’s also a thoughtful and smart guy, in my experience, and what I’ve seen of his analytical work is often rational and compelling… but he has built his (now huge) business mostly, I think, by being a great marketer, playing off of both greed and fear with strong […]

This would have been a good week to take a vacation. Market soaring on Tuesday, market crashing on Thursday, but when we look back on the whole thing it almost evened out — any ebullience we might have felt in the up days was matched by the panic as the market crashed back down on […]
This is an ad I actually haven’t seen, but a couple readers have sent in questions that include some clues, so we’ll try to solve them for you. That means, by the way, that we’re being a little bit unfair — since I haven’t reviewed this full ad, what we’re quoting from is hearsay… it […]
This spiel from Christian DeHaemer touches on many of the “trend” stories that investment pundits have been talking about in recent years, with a pitch about the “new normal” and the five big trends that will make you rich. It’s an ad for his Bull and Bust Report newsletter ($99 for the first year, renews […]
Let’s start with a reminder this week that will lead me into a bit of blatheration (feel free to skip ahead to the first ****, this might veer into sanctimonious lecturing): Don’t double down with your retirement money.

The Motley Fool put together a new push for Tom Gardner’s “no. 1 technology investment” late last week, including yet another “presentation” with Tom Gardner, Eric Bleeker and Tim Beyers, so we’ve gotten quite a few questions… and I also got a few other questions this week about a David Gardner teaser pitch, so we’re […]
We’ve had a lot of questions pop up over the past couple days about the Motley Fool’s “FAZER” stocks, which will apparently be the focus of a “special presentation” they’re making tomorrow morning. The gist of the email, which comes from Eric Bleeker, is pure FOMO — it triggers all the feelings of angst in […]
This ad, yet another one that focuses on the potential for 5G cellular data networks to rewrite the investing world, comes in from the growth-happy folks at Motley Fool Rule Breakers… the ad letter that I saw was from Rex Moore, one of their analysts, and this is the section that caught my attention: “One […]
Eric Bleeker at the Motley Fool came out with a big “presentation” recently where he walked around the stage pitching a new high-end project that they’re calling Extreme Opportunities: AR — a $999 no refunds one-year subscription to their thinking about augmented reality, starting with a 15-stock model portfolio and including whatever changes or updates […]
