3 little beauties to tempt you…

March 5th, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I thought I’d dash off a quick post as I travel down the East coast of England on the train (gives me an excuse to test the wifi service on the train!). Whether you are a first time visitor (and you are very welcome if you are) or a seasoned reader you’ll notice that I have a section on the right hand side of the page called ‘Featured Opportunities’.

I just wanted to highlight them as they form the backbone of much of my successful investing currently and if you haven’t yet researched them yourself then I’d make a recommendation that you do.

I am a big believer in PTV Partners as they continue to keep members up to date with what is going on but more importantly pay consistently on time. Last time I mentioned them my post was featured in their newsletter so it’s clear they keep a weather eye on what is being written about them which may not be the case in many other opportunities.

Genius Funds have encountered a problem in British Columbia and again are keeping their members appraised on what they are doing to deal with the issue. Unfortunately it means having to hire lawyers and the like but they clearly mean to settle any dispute in an appropriate manner so I don’t see any long term problem here. Once again they continue to make payments and keep members up to date with returns on their account.

The third programme is WBwso and again this is going well. You could almost forget that you have an investment with them as they rarely encounter problems and all the feedback I’ve read gives them a big thumbs up when it comes to doing what they say the will, that is making money on your behalf and you don’t have to do anything yourself.

So, 3 little beauties that I’d highly recommend you take a look at if you haven’t already done so.

Health and Wealth with Nopalea from Trivita…

March 3rd, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

For many people relief of pain is the number one issue they face each day. Much of this pain can be laid at the door of inflammation. Conditions such as arthritis are a classic example of this.

Inflammation is caused by toxins from a variety of sources attacking our body cells causing them to deform and lose their ability to behave normally. As more research is done the mechanisms that cause inflammation are starting to be understood.

Of course this is little help to sufferers who need effective treatments sooner rather than later. One company that has recognised this need is the highly successful health and wellness company, TriVita. Already firmly established in the US and Canada health and wellness market they have recently expanded their products to include Nopalea. This is an extract formulated from a cactus found in the Sonoran Desert.

Ensuring the highest standards of manufacturing quality Nopalea has been hugely successful since its launch at the beginning of the year. Customers who have tried this new formulation have quickly seen results and are now living healthier lives with significant reductions in pain.

I’ve prepared a more detailed page about Nopalea which can be found here. Not only is it something that can alleviate pain it can also provide an opportunity to earn a significant additional income. This opportunity is only available to those in the US or Canada but plans are being developed to expand globally. What this means is that if you live in the US or Canada you are exceedingly well placed to join a business that whilst already highly successful has ambitious plans for the future. By joining this business now you will be in an ideal position to profit as expansion gets underway.

We’ve had 5 minutes in the morning, now how about 10 minutes in the evening to make money…

March 2nd, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

Some years ago I tried several opportunities based on Fixed Odds Trading. This is where you place a wager knowing what your potential profit and liability will be as soon as it is accepted. To me this was potentially a very good way to earn money without having to sit at a computer studying trends, charts and the like. Unfortunately, the systems I tried never seemed to live up to their promises and my experiment faltered.

I’ve never forgotten about Fixed Odds trading but haven’t really come across anything that offered this form of investment as a way of earning. Well, today I’m pleased to say that I received an email that contained what could potentially be a Fixed Odds trading system with promise.

As I read the sales letter I was struck by the simplicity of what you would have to do and by the fact that it only takes a maximum of 10 minutes a night to analyse and place a trade. Some nights the signals won’t be there so you may end up losing just 5 minutes of your time finding this out but at least you won’t have made a bad trade.

The author makes it clear that you won’t make large amounts of money when you trade (and yes there are losses) but even so the amounts mentioned when totalled add up to a very respectable additional monthly income. I should mention that the service is ideally suited to those who live in the UK as the signals to watch for can be checked for in the early evening. Now, this doesn’t mean to say that other countries couldn’t use the system but from what I can see the focus is on the UK.

As with any reputable offer there is a money back guarantee period so you have time to see if this would work for you knowing that you can always get your money back if it doesn’t. The author is looking to attract a maximum of 500 members so there is some limit on how many people can take advantage of this offer. To ensure you get the most from the service you will have access to a private website where you can read bulletins about that days trading so you can validate your own findings. There is also an email support service available to help answer any questions you might have.

The cost is £247 which if the system proves to work would be a very reasonable price.

WPP shoot themselves in the foot?…

February 24th, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

How cynical we online investors can be! Perhaps the pains and frustrations we’ve endured over the years really have made us cautious when we are told that good news has arrived. Certainly today’s announcement by World Pension Plan (WPP) that the Yardas finance group have found a financial angel to help them bring the programme to a close has raised some suspicions.

So, it probably won’t come as any surprise when I say that lots of people have headed off to do some due diligence on this ‘knight in shining armour’. Unfortunately their armour soon becomes highly tarnished. It seems that the Hapton-Gratsos website was only registered a few days ago and it resides on the same server as Yardas…doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to work out what seems to be obvious.

One view is that WPP are just trying to generate additional income only to say at a future date that problems have arisen and things haven’t worked out…now when have we heard that sort of thing before?

Perhaps I’m just a cynic as well but you must admit it all seems somewhat too convenient. What really frustrates me is the number of people who complain about the poor or non-existent communication and yet we still get treated as though we would swallow anything that gets thrown at us.

I really don’t think that we will see any great upsurge in sales as a result of this news and it certainly wouldn’t encourage me to make any more purchases for myself.

Could we all be wrong? Of course it’s really impossible to tell until some proof is provided. Once again the jury is out!

Imperia Invest creep ever closer…

February 23rd, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

Imperia Invest has published a new update that reveals more details about how things will take shape over the short term. It seems that it is still possible to purchase new TEP contracts until the 26th February. The site will then be offline from the 27th February until 01st March.

From early March members can purchase debit cards and learn more about the payment options available. So, clearly this is an upbeat message and it now looks as though one of the online investments may well pay out in the not too distant future. One thing of course is not to get too carried away as whilst I hate to say it no funds are actually yet available to us.

Luckily it won’t take too long before we are able to have more definitive evidence of where things are going.

The site itself is not accessible at the moment so it isn’t clear as to how investors would be able to obtain further TEP’s. Perhaps the site is being bombarded by users trying to find out more details. If they don’t make it clear how further policies can be obtained it might discourage people from going ahead.

Gold Nugget Invest dodge the brickbats…

February 22nd, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

As we came out of 2009 Gold Nugget Invest looked in pretty poor shape. They had money frozen in a bank account and withdrawals at the end of the year had been much higher than anticipated. Drastic measures were needed and fair play to the owners they didn’t shy away from the challenges they faced. Rather than close the programme down they re-structured and created a new monthly plan which they felt would provide a realistic path forward.

So, where are we now then? I’ve just visited the member forum and I’m somewhat disappointed to read the tone of a lot of the posts. Rather than read tolerant supportive posts I found that many people were exhibiting a highly negative attitude to what happened and what is happening now.

Is a 16% monthly return such a bad thing? We’re coming up to a critical period as withdrawals will be activated from 01 to 07 March. This will prove one way or the other whether Gold Nugget Invest have a future ahead of them. Hopefully all the negative voices will be silenced and we’ll be able to return to regular returns that far outstrip anything you can find on the high street.

Sometimes I get the feeling that people who have been investing online for some time become blasé about the level of returns they should expect from any particular source. In reality of course no-one should be complacent about just what it takes to make any sort of decent return as most of us wouldn’t know where to start if it was down to us. Sure, we provide our hard earned money for others to use but we know that nothing is guaranteed.

It’s far too early to make judgement on Gold Nugget Invest and until we have more evidence either way any verdict can only be speculation.

PTV Partner pays out again…

February 21st, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

For some months I’ve been extolling the virtues of PTV Partner as one investment that has proved itself time after time. And yet again this weekend my investments have matured and funds are available for re-investing or withdrawing.

One other highlight with PTV Partner is the regular communication that members get. In some ways they almost communicate too much and you get a guilty feeling if you don’t visit the chat room and forum on a regular basis. They also have a blog that they encourage members to contribute to so there is a definite aim to create a real spirit of community.

Given many other opportunities that promise much but deliver little it’s great to report that PTV Partner really do appear to be the real thing.

For those who may be new to PTV Partner let me quickly explain the plans available:

Introductory 110% after 10 days

Advantage 125% after 20 days

Leverage 145% after 30 days

Prestige 190% after 40 days

There are several ways to make a deposit including Liberty Reserve, Global Digital Pay, StrictPay or Perfect Money.

If you haven’t already explored this particular investment opportunity then now is as good a time as any because they should be around for some time.

SportArbs maintain a good record of performance…

February 17th, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while you may remember that at the back end of December 2009 I offered readers the chance to win an account with SportArbs and a small investment to kick it off. There were three ‘winners’ and all of them were very pleased with their prize. So, what’s happened since then?

Well, performance has been maintained such that returns of just over 2% a day are being achieved. With the option to compound earnings there is definitely mileage in having a SportArbs account. As I said when I set up the contest I am a big fan of Sports Arbitrage and to date this particular opportunity has proved very worthwhile.

Now, like all programmes there are downsides as well as upsides. Ever since I’ve been a member there has been a message on the Homepage to say that telephone support would be coming soon (let’s just accept that soon is in a different time dimension from mine).

However, when I’ve had to contact support by email I’ve always received a prompt response to me query. I will say that English is probably not the native language for those in support but it’s a lot better than anything I could proffer in another language.

Like all investments it is always worth taking your time doing some personal research before parting with funds and you should always invest an amount you are prepared to lose but having said all that I would recommend giving SportArbs serious consideration.

One other drawback is that they only accept Global Digital Pay and Perfect Money as payment processors so please make sure you investigate what this might mean for you if you haven’t got an account with either of them as yet.

So, is Investorum paying or not?…

February 14th, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

On 02 February I joined Investorum as they are another site that purports to trade in Sports Arbitrage as a way to earn returns for their investors. Having made an investment it came as something of a shock to read almost immediately that monitors were reporting they were not paying.

At first there were only 1 or 2 reporting non-payment but as time has gone by it appears that more are showing a red flag. Somewhat bizarrely Investorum seem quite happy to show these non-paying statuses so it begs the question what is really going on.

Having just logged into my own account it does show daily interest being credited seemingly with no problem. The test of course is whether I’d be able to make a withdrawal after the 60 calendar days is up as this is the minimum holding period associated with the investment.

What about everyone else out there? Has anyone been able to make a withdrawal or should I count this as a lesson learnt and put this into the failure group.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Investorum their plans return daily interest of between 1.2% and 1.6% daily. The rate you receive depends on the amount of your investment. Now, clearly I’m not advocating that anyone make an investment at this moment until the paying situation is cleared up. But, if the payment status can be cleared up it might be worth just keeping an eye on this as a potential for the future.

Andy Shaw, Greg Ballard and Passive Investments…

January 24th, 2010 | Posted in Uncategorized

I’m not sure why but it’s taken me some time to get the news that Passive Investments run by Andy Shaw and Greg Ballard has gone into liquidation. The company was set up to purchase and manage a UK property portfolio for its investors.

I thought long and hard about joining when I first came across them and after attending one of their seminars at Heathrow. Ultimately I decided not to and it seems in hindsight to have been a wise decision.

Accounting irregularities seem to be in evidence and a forum post I read suggested that Greg Ballard had little sympathy for a member who was looking to get a refund on the fee that Passive charged up front as they were having problems sorting the additional finance needed.

Some high profile investors are also backtracking on their relationship with Andy and Greg and it does appear that both individuals have managed things very poorly. This is somewhat in contrast to the sophisticated presentations they made at their seminars and I’m sure that there are many people in the UK that will be considering their situations very carefully.

Andy had moved to Cyprus where he felt the market for property was poorly exploited and from the information I saw it seemed that he had done some very thorough research which may now well go to waste.

Once again it shows that no matter how legitimate something appears it is always worth seeking more information to make sure that you are wholly comfortable with any investment you make.
