It’s probably not a scam. It’s probably not a scam; but it is a waste of money. Richards has discovered the art of selling books by continually talking about future disasters that only he can forwarn. When you subscribe to his letter you will be bombarded with one offer after another to subscribe to more expensive letters with little or no track record. Altucher is more of the same. I strongly advise staying away from Agora. The last time I contacted their “customer service”; the response back was we don’t monitor customer service. Pathetic!

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./

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!

Don’t even think about it! I think this is one of the times I had a pretty clear understanding of an investment product where I could separate the performance from all the noise. I got stuck with agora after purchasing the altucher report for a 2500. Once I bought that for its crypto hype, it has been impossible to shake these guys for 3 years now. I think I’ve turned 100k into 896 following their advice. Basically their selling subscriptions with no real advice behind it, the subscription is the product.

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.
