Biginners doubt usually turn to trust with time. I have been using many of the Agora financials division e-Letters alongside other Financial e-letters. Stansberry research; Oxford club: Motley fool: etc. since 1960's. While they are a very good source of financial knowledge for beginners and others. they are not predictors of the future. You cannot buy every one of their submission because you are not millionaires, but if you follow their advice you will win more often than you have loss. They are not difference from school, you start fearfull and with doubt; you will end up much richer as the years roll by./

Stay away from Agora Financial Stay away from Agora Financial, James Altucher, Alan Knuckman, et al. The "advice" they sell does not produce a net gain in the value of your portfolio. Some recommendations work out profitably, but the ones that do not will cause you to lose far more money than the profitable trades. I began the above-mentioned Agora services in May of 2018. By December, I had made $8500 through their recommendations, but I was $25,000 underwater in sold puts that expired short of the strike price. Many purchased call options have expired worthless. I knew going in that option trading was risky. This has been a costly experience that will take years to fully recover from.

I subscribed to Bubble Finance and lost a ton $$ I subscribed to the newsletter, which was a bit pricey. My recommendation - Don't use this advice! I invested in 7 or 8 options over a period of time in 2017 per Stockman Bubble Finance Letter advice, which seemed well developed and rational. Every one of the puts turned into losses, over $18,000 cumulative lost in 1 year (including the recent TSLA, XPO and SPY puts expiring 1/18/18). Unless you can afford to lose your portfolio, you will be better off in a passive index!! PS. I cancelled my subscription!

Beware Scammers Beware - Total scammers. Also impossible to contact - ignore emails. "Unsubscribe" link in their emails doesn't work. Not sure how this could get worse - PLEASE do not invest with cowboys

Altucher Alliance Altucher Alliance: Some of the newsletters are given more care than others. I feel like new newsletters are launched too often which waters down the rest of them. Many trades have been successful but have been drowned out by big losses from put options that were exercised (gsky) which are now sitting in my account down 70%. Part of that is bad asset allocation on my part since the 100 shares that options trade in is usually a bigger number of shares than I would normally allocate if I was just buying a stock.
