Gold for $1...
By Side-Stepping
the Stock Market
Thousands of Americans are ratcheting up their gains on gold companies...

"You're seeing the opening of the spigots of financing in a fairly big way"
-- New York Times
Dear Reader,

The transaction I'm about to show you costs only $1 to do... and can offer a far higher return than you'd ever get by handing your money to Wall Street.

You see – by stepping outside the stock market... we've found a way to generate returns directly from the gold industry... without much of the "market interference" that comes from holding stocks.

Take Gold Reserve (GRZ), for example, which jumped 90% last year.

You may not realize this... but during that time, some folks found a way to make 623% or more on the exact same company... by getting their stake OUTSIDE the stock market.

In fact, it's been happening with dozens of gold stocks...

As BusinessWeek said in 2009, "an investor stampede has produced returns twice as high as stocks this year." For instance:
  • NovaGold (NG) has one of the largest gold reserves on earth. Its share price rose 87% between May and December 2009.

    But some investors took a stake in this company without going through the stock market... and found a way to make as much as 260% in the exact same time.


  • Coeur d'Alene Mines (CDE) is a 81-year-old gold and silver giant. Its share price went up 313% in the last 12 months. But during that exact same time, some folks found a way to make 570%.


  • Or take Grupo Mexico, the largest mining company in Mexico. Its share price rose 297% between February and December 2009. But by sidestepping the market, you could have made as much as 594% in the exact same time.
More and more people are discovering this secret. As the New York Times recently wrote, "a frenzy has been taking place in the market."

In short, gold has caught on. And as I'm sure you've noticed, gold prices have risen every year for the past 8 years.

And a growing number of investors are bypassing the stock market to get their share. They're abandoning gold stocks... gold futures... gold options... even gold bullion.

And frankly, once you see how this works... I wouldn't be surprised if you never bought another gold stock again.
As BusinessWeek recently said, "in the next five years someone will make a fortune in [this] market." But many people already are...
Skeptical?

I would be too, if it wasn't happening already...

Take an average investor like Brent Tuckerman from Memphis, for example. He put $28,000 in Gold Reserve 12 months ago using this technique.

Now, it's worth $202,500... nearly seven times more than if he'd simply held the stock during that same time frame.

"A frenzy has been taking place in the market."
-- New York Times
Or take Marshall Bonsworth, whose $7,000 stake in Gold Reserve turned into $67,500 in just over a year... and Joanne Middleton, a secretary in Los Angeles, who turned $43,000 into $288,000.

If you're only willing to do business the old-fashioned way... through a stock broker... then please set this letter aside. This isn't for you.

But if you're as excited about gold as I am... this may be exactly what you're looking for.

Your return can increase by up to 7 TIMES... simply because you're going outside the stock market.

Personally – after watching the DOW fall 5,000 points in 2008, I think anyone who relies exclusively on the stock market is crazy. I'd much rather step outside the stock market for the opportunity to ratchet up my profits.

Again, this has NOTHING to do with coins... bullion... options... funds... certificates... ETFs or any other typical gold investment you've probably heard of.

Let me show you how the whole thing works, and how you can begin using it immediately, without touching a single stock...

Cut out the stock market

When it comes to ordinary products, you probably already know how much money you save by cutting out the middleman... it's the difference between buying wholesale as opposed to retail.

But very few people realize you can also do something quite similar with your investments.

"In the next five years someone will make a fortune in [this] market."
-- BusinessWeek
You see, the U.S. stock exchanges are simply large 'retail' markets for investing in American businesses.

But there's another way to invest that's quickly catching on. It lets you profit from the very same companies you find on the NYSE, NASDAQ or AMEX... without going anywhere near the stock exchanges.

By doing this, you don't buy stock... at least not in the ordinary sense. Instead, you invest directly in the company. As a result, AND THIS IS PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE OF THE INVESTMENT STRATEGY I'M GOING TO SHARE WITH YOU: It no longer matters whether the company's stock goes up or not.

Put simply: You can make money either way... which makes this a very safe way to invest.

Let me show you how it works...

"Safer than stocks"
-- Wall Street Journal

Perhaps you've heard of Teck Resources (TCK). It's a mining giant that's been digging for gold since 1913... And today it operates five massive mines across North and South America.

In other words, this is a stable industry giant... about as good as it gets.

Yet in 2008, when the American stock market crashed, Teck Resources shares also dropped... from $51.91 to $3.15. In fact, they still haven't recovered, and are down a third from their previous high.

Amazingly, during this entire time, the company actually had higher gross revenues than in the two years prior.

In other words: There was nothing inherently wrong with the company which would cause its stock to fall.

But the sad truth is, that's how the stock market works...

You can have a perfectly good company get dragged down for no apparent reason. It happens to thousands of good companies every year... and it will continue to happen every year that stocks are in existence.

"You're seeing the opening of the spigots of financing in a fairly big way."
-- New York Times
It doesn't seem fair, but if people aren't interested in owning a particular company, no matter how good, the price will go down... sometimes way down.

But the incredible thing is – by getting your stake in a company like Teck Resources outside the stock market, you'd have avoided much of the carnage... and continued to get paid.

For example, a fellow named Ed Lundy in Seattle started using this strategy back in 2002. He's made 600% on his money...

Darren Tremblay in Little Rock has pocketed well over $132,000... And Michael Windsor, has made 900%.

Whether you realize it or not, you could do the exact same thing with your own gold investments, beginning immediately.

That's why we believe this little-known gold investing technique is the best way to avoid the uncertainties of the stock market... and make a high return on gold.

But that's not all...

Why your broker won't
tell you about this

If you've never heard of this before, don't be surprised.

You see – when you invest directly with gold companies through this unique vehicle, you don't pay a single penny in stock commissions. You bypass the stock market.

As a result, your broker has no incentive to tell you about this exciting technique... because he won't make as much money.

The sad truth is, some brokers care more about their commission than about your success as an investor. And if you don't buy stock, your broker doesn't earn as much in commissions.

The reason: A broker only makes a tiny, one dollar per transaction fee when you invest this way.

"A broker only makes a tiny, one dollar per transaction fee when you invest this way."
Even if you take a large position, your cost is around $10.

So the good news is, even though you've probably never heard of this from your brokerage firm. Most U.S. brokers, like Fidelity, Schwab, and TD Ameritrade, allow you to start investing like this immediately.

Again: The only commission a broker makes on this transaction is one single dollar... a mere fraction of what he'd make selling you stocks.

So how exactly do you invest in gold companies directly?

How it all began

Once you see how this opportunity got started, I think you'll agree it's truly a unique opportunity.

You see, gold companies need more money today than ever before.

Gold is at an all-time high... well over $1,000 an ounce. Mining companies are desperate to get the metal out of the ground. As more and more orders pile up, they need more employees... more equipment... and more capital.

And they need it RIGHT NOW.

Unfortunately, because of the recent banking crisis, banks today aren't lending nearly as much money as they used to. So gold companies are turning to investors instead...

"An investor stampede has produced returns twice as high as stocks this year."
-- BusinessWeek
They're bypassing the stock markets... to access immediate cash. And for savvy investors – that translates to an opportunity for quick and enormous gains...

For example, you may have heard of Freeport McMoran (FCX), one of the largest gold producers in the world. The international bullion market would come to a grinding halt if this company ever stopped delivering gold to the market.

Yet, even a giant like this turned to investors recently.

If you knew about this opportunity, and invested only $10,000 with this company in December 2008... a year later you'd have made $23,920. That's more than DOUBLE your initial stake.

But there's another reason I urge you to take advantage of this situation...

Legally obligated to pay you back

When you invest by going outside the stock market with this particular strategy – the company is legally obligated to pay you back.

"the company is obligated by law to honor the terms of your initial investment... "
That means the company is required – by law – to honor the terms of your initial investment. And in some cases, that can mean a 260% to 570% return... as I've been showing you.

Of course, as with everything in the investment world, nothing is 100% certain. Companies can go bankrupt, but with these investments, you'd be first in line to get repaid in that situation.

Simply put: this is the safest and most profitable way I know to invest in gold today.

And it gets even better...

How to receive 2
income checks a year

What's especially rewarding about investing this way is you can receive 2 income checks a year from each gold company.

Take Gold Reserve, for example. If you'd put $10,000 into this company back in December 2008, in 12 months your investment would have been worth $72,347... a return of 623%.

Now you have to understand: not every gold company will give you such a large return. The past year was truly extraordinary... with some of the largest overall returns we've seen in a decade. But you can still make great money here.

You see, when you avoid the stock market... the companies who offer these transactions often make the deal even sweeter...

Every 6 months, you'd have received a check for $29,452. Take a look at last year alone:
Jun. 15, 2009: $29,452
Dec. 15, 2009: $29,452
And you'd be set up to receive the same payments again this year on the same dates:
Jun. 15, 2010: $29,452
Dec. 15, 2010: $29,452
Bear in mind: every company is slightly different... and some pay less than others... while others pay over a longer time period.

Take Teck Resources, for example.

A $10,000 stake back in December 2008 would now be worth $23,500. And last year, you'd have been paid twice:
Apr. 1, 2009: $6,451
Oct. 1, 2009: $6,451
In fact, if you put $10,000 in each of the four companies I've mentioned so far, here's what you'd be set to receive this year:

January 15, 2010;
$4,360
  Ceour d'Alene Mines
April 1, 2010
$6,451
  Tech Resources
May 1, 2010
$18,870
  Grupo Mexico
May 1, 2010
$10,752
  NovaGold
June 15, 2010
$29,452
  Gold Reserve
July 15, 2010
$4,360
  Ceour d'Alene Mines
October 1, 2010
$6,451
  Tech Resources
November 1, 2010
$18,870
  Grupo Mexico
November 1, 2010
$10,752
  NovaGold
December 15, 2010
$29,452
  Gold Reserve

That's an extra $139,770 in income checks you'd be set to get this year... which you can do whatever you want with.

Not bad for a $40,000 investment!

So, does this mean we're recommending you buy into these companies right away?

No. Unfortunately, the opportunity to get into these specific deals is gone.

But the good news is, we've found another gold company that's willing to deal with investors outside the stock market...

Now, before I tell you about it, you must understand: There's no possible way I can guarantee you'll make the same kind of gains as I've shown you here.

All that I can be certain of, is that the past year has been incredible for these kind of investments... better than we've seen in decades.

And there's no telling how the year ahead will unfold.

But the point is: None of the payouts I showed you here are in any way hypothetical. Every one of these gold companies are legally bound to send payments like these to their investors each and every year.

"My portfolio is showing a profit of 225%. This is simply amazing. Thanks!"
-- Eric Friar
You'd get these checks regardless of whether the stocks go up or not. That's why I believe this is the most stable and safest income you can possibly receive from the financial markets right now.

For example, Bob Gibbons in Tucson has already made well over $885,000 with this unique investing approach.
On Sep. 17th the New York Times called it: " the opening of the spigots of financing in a big way." In fact, the Times went on to estimate that within the next 5 years, $1 TRILLION will be paid out to investors with this approach.
So how exactly do you find the best gold companies willing to let you invest without going through the 'retail' stock markets?

Well... the truth is, we've been looking for an expert in this area for over three years now.

And we've finally found the right person... a fellow who has personally been doing this for over a decade, with enormous success.

Why you may never buy
a gold stock again

His name is Mike Williams.

He's by far, our most experienced analyst... having worked in the financial industry for over 36 years...

...As a partner in a $4 billion Florida money management firm... as an executive at one of Boston's biggest banks... as a pension fund manager... and as an entrepreneur.
He's set up 3 multi-million dollar companies, one in China and 2 right here in the States. His 6 sons now help him run these businesses.

In short, Mike has seen almost every side of investing. And he's experienced more in his lifetime than just about anyone I know...

"You'll never get rich by using the stock market."
He grew up in Japan, where his father was stationed as a pilot during the Korean War. Two decades later, he himself joined the US Air Force, flying C-141 cargo airplanes from 1968 to 1973, during the Vietnam War.

He got into finance right afterward, and if there's one important lesson Mike's learned over the years, he says it's this: "You'll never get rich by using the stock market."

When we asked him why, he said: "Simple. There's no guarantee you'll ever make money."

So, what does he recommend to his own family and friends?

His answer: The only investment that's as close to a 'sure thing' as you can get in the financial world... the approach I've been telling you about – where a company is legally obligated to pay investors...
For example, Mike told us about a Pennsylvania firm he recently recommended. At the time, it invited anyone who was interested to invest in them directly through this unique vehicle– without buying a single share of stock. In return, it offered an extraordinary return.

Result: It has returned over 240% in just under a year.
Mike has personally invested this way for 36 years. And has made a nice personal fortune doing it.

"This is exactly what I've been looking for in this volatile market."
-- Bill Nessc
When we first found Mike, he was living a relaxed life with his wife on the Emerald coast of Florida... enjoying his wealth in semi-retirement, while his kids took care of the family businesses.

But after much persuasion we managed to sign an exclusive contract with Mike. He agreed to share his secret... and to present his latest investment opportunities in a research advisory we call TRUE INCOME.

Here, each month Mike details the most profitable companies willing to do business off Wall Street.

Simply put, Mike gathers all the "inside" information. All you have to do is follow his simple instructions... and sit back.

You'll have the opportunity to make 50% to 400% more than your original stake... while collecting checks of up to tens of thousands of dollars... deposited into your brokerage account on PRECISE dates you'll know months in advance.

Sounds way too simple, right?

Well, it is. And that's why when we launched True Income almost two years ago, we were overwhelmed with notes from subscribers...

As subscriber Eric Friar in Anaheim tells us – "My portfolio is showing a profit of 225%. This is simply amazing. Thanks!"
"This is exactly what I've been looking for in this volatile market," says Bill Ness, a True Income subscriber in Tucson. "Please keep doing this."

And here's an interesting one: Jimmy Wintz says half his gains since the beginning of the year have resulted from this strategy... though it comprises a mere fraction of his overall investment approach.
Just keep one thing in mind...

You have only a short time

As you can imagine, with such incredible upside potential, thousands of people have already uncovered this opportunity... with more and more getting in every day.

So there's no telling how long this upside will last.

Gold companies are working hard to raise cash right away.

As the Wall Street Journal said on Nov. 16th: "investor demand remains hot, concerned that the window may slam shut at any moment."

And the pace has only increased...

That's why we've found a gold opportunity you should take advantage of immediately...

30 days from now...

As I write this, Mike has just contacted us about a gold company that's recently opened its doors to investors.

As you can imagine, the rush to get in has already started. He estimates at least 2,300 people are already in. And we may have only a short time left before the company's needs are met... and the opportunity closes.

You see, this company isn't a gold explorer looking for some "pie-in-the-sky" gold strike. Instead, it's a gold producer, with large gold reserves which they simply can't get out of the ground fast enough.

"Investor demand remains hot, concerned that the window may slam shut at any moment."
-- Wall Street Journal
Because of this, they need more equipment... more manpower... and more capital to speed up operations. And if you're willing to help them, they could reward you handsomely.

Even better, in addition to your capital return (which is set right now at 100%), the company is legally bound to provide you with income checks for the next 3 years. How much you'll receive, of course, depends on your particular situation... And as I mentioned, I can't promise you that the gains you'll see will be like the ones we've experienced over the past year.

But I do know that if you get in now, the company is obligated by law to send you payments on:
Apr. 31, 2010
Nov. 30, 2010
Apr. 31, 2011
Nov. 30, 2011
Apr. 31, 2012
Nov. 30, 2012
Unfortunately, I can't share further details in this letter. But we've prepared a special research report about this situation that explains the opportunity in full, called: "Make a Killing in Gold by Side-Stepping the Stock Market."

It was prepared exclusively for Mike's readers. But if you're interested, I'll send you this report right now, at no charge.

In return, I ask only that you take a risk-free look at Mike's research advisory, True Income.

Is True Income right for you? Only you can say for sure. But before you decide, there's something you should know...

Do you qualify?

These 'wholesale' investments are not for everyone. To fully take advantage of this strategy, I recommend you consider these guidelines:
1. You need at least $5,000 to $10,000 in capital
Each of these investment opportunities costs between $500 and $900. And to take a real advantage of them, you'd need at least $5,000 to own ten of them.

So if you're serious about doing this, you should have a MINIMUM of $5,000 to set aside. The more, the better.

If you don't have this kind of money, True Income may not be the best research advisory for you. Please look elsewhere.
2. You MUST be willing to wait at least 1 to 4 years
If you take advantage of these opportunities, your money will be put to work over a period of usually 1 to 4 years. During this time, as I mentioned, you're set up to be rewarded for your patience with a stream of regularly scheduled income checks, as high as $2,500 apiece (or more).

And of course, you're set to receive your initial deposit back (along with a generous gain of usually 100%) in one final payment at the end.

The exact amount you stand to get... the dates and size of your income checks... are all set when you first make your investment.

And don't worry. If you decide you want to cash out ahead of time, you have that option. There is no penalty. You'll receive your initial investment (plus current gains). And another investor can simply take your place.

"I've been looking for something like this, and here it is... Looking forward to the improved returns and safety. Excellent analysis."
-- Steve Slaker

"Your newest newsletter is extremely interesting to me. In fact, I bought some [investments] after reading it. It sounds too good to be true..."
-- James Delaney

"An appealing investment approach..."
-- Steve Willis

"I LOVE the idea!!! I know I need to get exposure to [these investments] in my portfolio and this seems like the perfect information. Keep it coming!"
-- Vincent Singleton
But if you want to see the biggest gains... I urge you to wait until the agreed-upon end date of your investment.

In other words, patience is key. If you're looking for a quick overnight payout, this approach is not for you.
3. No investment is ever 100% guaranteed
As I mentioned, these companies are legally obligated to pay you.

But you must understand, nothing in this world is 100% certain – not even the government's treasury bonds.

The US economy could collapse... there could be a major war... and businesses – like everything else – could suffer.

But for serious investors who understand the risks and rewards of investing... this may be exactly the type of investment you've been looking for.

You might make 10% a year with stocks, if you're lucky. But with True Income, you could earn 7-TIMES as much, without any of the anxiety or "market interference" that comes with owning stocks.

Unless you meet these 3 qualifications, True Income probably isn't the right research advisory for you.

That said, if this approach makes sense for you, it gets even better...

How to triple your money in a year

What I haven't told you yet is that hundreds of companies outside the gold sector are also opening their doors to this approach...

For example, recently Mike has found an oil company... medical firm... and even a household-name retailer offering investors a stake outside the stock market.

Take Rite-Aid (RAD), for example. On February 6, 2009, Mike discovered the firm wanted investors. He passed along the exact details to True Income readers, who have seen a 241% gain so far.

In particular, if you'd invested $10,000 when Mike first wrote about this, your stake would now be worth $34,100... AND you'd also have received two $1,317 paychecks... with more money still scheduled to come.

We asked Mike to share his secret to finding these situations – in the gold sector... as well as almost every sector in the market you can name, like biotech... silver... Blue Chips... and dozens more.

He's prepared a detailed members-only report that explains the approach in full: The True Income Primer. Inside, you'll learn:
  • Why this enormous 'wholesale' market exists...


  • Why companies are legally obligated to pay you a fixed return on a specific date, even if the stock doesn't go up...


  • How to spot the largest paychecks.
"I thoroughly enjoyed reading Mike Williams' analysis... It's in line with my investment strategy, which is to have my money work as hard for me as I worked to earn it."
-- Pete Lorne

"Exactly perfect! This is a much needed newsletter to over a much misunderstood and potentially very profitable area of the market."
-- Chuck Bloom

"I just wanted to drop you a note to tell you that I think you're doing a fantastic job and have made some very solid recommendations. Please keep up the great work."
-- Daniel Warren

"I really like the new report, "True Income"... These [investments] have the potential for too much income in the relatively near term..."
-- Roger Shea
Very simply, the Primer contains everything you need to know about the True Income way of investing.

Just let me know if you're interested, and we'll give you immediate access in the next 10 minutes.

So how much does True Income cost?

Why this may NOT be for you

True Income is one of the best research services we've ever published.

That said, I believe it's also the best bargain of anything we publish – considering the opportunities you're given each and every month.

The cost for one full year is $2,400.

If that sounds like too much, I can tell you right now: True Income won't be right for you. I suggest you look into one of our other research advisories, such as 12% Letter or True Wealth... for folks who are just starting out.

The reality is – the opportunities you'll receive in True Income are easily worth 10 times the price... considering that every single investment Mike has recommended to his readers has sent out payments to its investors.

The truth is, we believe the gold bull market is going to accelerate even more this year. The payouts should only increase. And by going outside the stock market, you could make an absolute fortune...

Unfortunately, there's no telling how much longer this gold company will keep its doors open to new investors. That's why I urge you again to take advantage of this opportunity as soon as possible.

Remember: By investing outside the stock market, you could ramp your gains by 7 times on just a single company... even if the stock doesn't go up.

In the next 10 minutes, you'll receive access to:
  • Special Report: Make a Killing in Gold by Side-Stepping the Stock Market.

  • The True Income Primer.
In the Primer, you'll see exactly how these 'wholesale' markets work... how to take advantage of them... and how to find companies which offer these opportunities.

And the Special Report will explain exactly which gold company Mike believes could offer the highest return right now... in addition to scheduled income checks twice a year.

On the second Wednesday of each month, Mike will send you a new True Income issue... detailing a new opportunity to invest outside the stock market, poised for at least 100% returns.

Once you get started, take the next 90 days to decide if True Income works for you.
If you realize you're not qualified... or it simply doesn't live up to everything I've said here, just let us know. We'll promptly return your money... minus only a 10% handling fee.

And you can keep everything we've given you... with our compliments.

I urge you to Subscribe Now
