“I’ve made $27,000 just days after becoming a member. What else do you guys have for me!”
That’s precisely what I heard on the other end of the phone yesterday. It’s obviously music to my ears to hear first hand the kind of difference we can make in such a short period of time. But results like that aren’t just a matter of the behind-the-scenes phone calls, boots-on-the-ground site visits, late night number crunching and all of the diligent research that we provide.
What makes all of that work worthwhile comes down to one thing: trust.
Our editors can scour the world uncovering the greatest profit opportunities – and they do. We could count our money and shout “We told you so!” from the rooftops – which we don’t. But none of that matters if our readers don’t have the confidence and trust to act on those recommendations for themselves.
Michael – the brand new twenty seven thousand dollar man – had taken a leap of faith and joined Nick Hodge’s Underground Alpha. He acted immediately and was rewarded as such.
Michael even went so far as to say that he felt compelled to go all in with us because we felt more “like a family” than the other financial newsletters that he’s subscribed to in the past. We feel the same way – we are not a faceless monolith churning out information that anyone can just stumble upon with a bloodless Google AI search.
We’re people with our own families just like you and we treat all of our members as such. We win when you win.
While I’m getting into the cheerful holiday spirit, I wanted to give a warm welcome to all of our new readers like Michael and thank them for that trust. I’ve had the pleasure of personally speaking with dozens of you that have joined the Digest Publishing family over the last two weeks.
As many of you know, our own Nick Hodge participated in a webinar with famed resource investor Rick Rule this month. The opportunity was forged in the friendship that Rick and Nick have cultivated over the years. As they say, “game respects game” and Rick’s invitation provided us with a brand new audience that clearly liked what they saw.
I’ve been in the financial publishing world for over a decade and I have never seen such a groundswell of excitement. Our phones were ringing off the hook for days with calls from new members that felt as if Christmas had come early this year.
The one question that kept coming up was “now that I’m in, where do I go next?”
While watching Nick Hodge and Gerardo Del Real’s Bizarro World video podcast yesterday it dawned on me that it is the perfect introduction to the family.
Investing in Bizarro World is our weekly podcast that Nick and Gerardo call their “weekly therapy session.” As the name suggests, in each episode the duo shares exactly how to capitalize on all the craziness in the world and the markets and share the ways to make money hand over fist. Because one thing is for sure: there is always money to be made – and the more bizarre things seem to be in the markets, the more profit opportunities surface.
Since 2019, they have been able to capitalize on all the chaos and uncertainty that drove various sectors of the market upwards with dozens of investments that allowed them to rack up 100% to over 10,000% gains during that same time.
It’s the one podcast out there that puts its money where its mouth is.
Nick and Gerardo spell out everything that’s happened in the markets, cover the companies they’re investing in and add a hilarious flair to the news and political landscapes. Since it airs live every week you get a first hand look at exactly how their minds work in real time. You almost feel like you're having a conversation with them at the dinner table.
To continue the “game recognizes game” metaphor, each episode can act as a game of ping-pong, a friendly chess match or a slam dunk contest. It’s always exciting, never predictable and when the dust settles everyone at the table comes away with a greater understanding of how we operate and deliver the success we’re known for.
Perhaps most valuable is the fact that Nick and Gerardo give you active stock tips – from every one of Digest Publishing’s portfolios – with ticker symbols. It is the perfect introduction for new readers and must-see-tv for all of our members.
The best part? Bizarro World is only $99 a year for an inside look at everything we do here. That’s a mere $2 an episode to join us at the table every week. You’re not just a passive observer either. Any member can send us questions each week to be discussed.
So pull up a chair, get comfortable and join us for the latest episode.
Godspeed,
Jimmy Mengel
