What is the “N54(a) Retirement Account” teased by Ian Wyatt?

Ian Wyatt is promoting his High Yield Wealth newsletter by touting a “little-known government loophole” that he thinks could help you collect a lot more income than a 401(k) account … so, naturally, we want to know what it is.

“Black Market Income” from the 12% Letter?

A couple variations on this teaser about “black market income” have been rolling around the marketplace for months now — the actual investments are still relatively normal, mainstream-ish companies and strategies, just as they were when the 12% Letter called parts of this “black market income” strategy by other names, which is why I haven’t [...]

“Manhattan’s Secret 8.2% Savings Account”

Today’s tease hits home for most savers — the return you get for your money in the bank stinks, and most savings accounts and similarly “safe” savings vehicles yield don’t have interest yields that are even high enough to keep up with inflation. So the promise of a “savings account” that yields 8.2% is obviously [...]

A $6 Stock for 7 Cents? [Friday File Rerun]

The article excerpted below was originally published here on August 6 as a Friday File for the Stock Gumshoe Irregulars. It has not been updated, though the stock is up roughly 10% from that time.

The 424 Dividend Boost — 12% Letter

“While most folks earn tiny 2%-6% dividends on Blue Chips (like Pepsi, Johnson & Johnson, and AT&T) savvy Americans are secretly “boosting” those small yields to dizzying heights – earning incredible 30%-50% on the exact same shares. Originally available only to executives at America’s richest Blue Chip firms, this income secret is now available to [...]

“Receive $1,400 on May 30 … World’s Safest 9% Dividend” Dyson

I know many of my readers are dividend fiends, and I always appreciate a buck in my pocket as much as the next guy, so I thought this latest missive from Tom Dyson at Stansberry and Associates might be worth a look. The ad actually began as a Daily Wealth article last month — back [...]

Mark Skousen: “This Stock is PROFITING From the Subprime Mess”

Ah, it’s so nice to have a lovely little sleuthing job to distract me … this is much more enjoyable than watching my own portfolio tick lower, or watching the market indexes crawl frantically into into the basement like scared children in a horror movie. Enough distractions like this, and I can actually follow through [...]

“BDCs: Private Lending, Secret to 16% Gains”

These things tend to run in cycles — here we are with yet another Motley Fool teaser, after chatting up rule makers yesterday. Today, it’s the Motley Fool Income Investor newsletter that’s being teased, by editor James Early … and it’s still on sale, for $119, for what that’s worth (“normally” $199, though it was [...]
