ETF Profit Driver
Goes LIVE April 1st!

ETF Profit Driver GIVEAWAY!

3/29/08, 6:57pm – WE HAVE A WINNER!

As always, when we do these contests, it’s super difficult to pick just one winner. There were a lot of heartfelt entries. But no matter who wins, everyone who entered should be excited because we truly believe the ETF Profit Driver can help you supercharge your portfolio in less than 20 minutes a night.

Honestly, all 450 of the charter students should feel like winners.

Since we had such a difficult time picking just 1 winner, we decided to award a free copy of the ETF Profit Driver to 3 individuals!

Here they are, listed in no particular order:

Bob Wagner, who posted on 3/29/08 at 11:54am. Bob’s entry: 1. I have wanted to successfully trade the markets since my youth. I am at retirement age but not yet retired. My goal is to be able to fund my grandchildren’s education by trading and teaching my grandchildren
a. how to become independent from business recessions, from business layoffs, and from dependence on government handouts;

b. how to understand what the terms risk and reward are while being financially responsible at the same time; and

c. how to live a comfortable life without substance abuse because that will surely kill any chance they have for success in the world.

In addition, I would like to fund several charities in the area including youth programs and send underpriviledged scouts to summer camp and high-adventure camp (I thoroughly enjoy seeing the growth these kids have in one-week of challenging activities).

The potential money that I make will probably allow me to spend more time with the grandchildren and youth groups with which I work. It will allow my wife and I to payoff our loans, to visit places around the world, and to exchange ideas for the development of youth and youth programs. The latter is the legacy that I would like leave.

2. Supercharging my portfolio with ETFs will help me because it will allow me to diversify or minimize the risk of specific stock situations like Bear Stearns, take advantage of commodity and foreign investment potential, cushion the negative impact of currency risk, and perform better with my portfolio than the professional mutual fund managers do.

Why I’m interested in trading the markets? The easy answer is “to make money, of course”, but it is obviously more complex than that. Trading involves many degrees of emotional and financial turmoil that is mostly controlled by education and self-discipline – I’m still working on both those aspects. The process of successful trading and the potential rewards are an on-going challenge that has captured my interest totally.

When my spouse died a few years ago, I sold our small business and budgeted my lifestyle based on relatively modest returns from various investments. I then decided to take control of my own finances and aspired to learn trading. The question of lifestyle improvements from potential trading profits has multiple answers. Would I love to buy a new car every year and travel whenever or wherever I wanted? You bet! But on a more basic level, potential trading profits would contribute to making life more affordable – insurance, utility and mortgage payments, dinner out with friends and family, increasing charitable contributions, or buying this new ETF course. Sometimes it’s the little things that count most.

I believe that ETFs are definitely one of the best tools for supercharging anyone’s portfolio, especially in this volatile market. Standard trading is very difficult, time-consuming and perilous in this environment. ETFs offer a great opportunity to diversify over broader markets and follow the “big money” without trying to cherry-pick stocks and options from the thousands available. I am very excited about learning to trade ETFs. I do not believe in a Holy Grail but I very much want to take my trading to a higher level and I believe that your new ETF program can help me achieve that goal.

I also want to take the opportunity to thank you for your efforts in educating traders like myself. I’ve been on your mailing list for some time and you always offer a variety of excellent trading information, tips and advice. It’s through efforts of teachers like you that people like me have chance of success - and I thank you!

Question 1: Why are you interested in trading the markets in the first place? A few years ago my husband was a CEO for a market research company and was making a substantial income for us. Then his company was sold to a British company who kept him on contract for 3 years but then he was ultimately separated from the company. This was 3 years ago. This is not uncommon for an executive with a company that is bought out and not uncommon when over age 50. So we decided we needed to find another way to support ourselves and not be reliant on a JOB. We invested thousands of dollars in education in market trading, real estate, and asset protection. Our asset protection is in place. We took action in real estate, however, with what has happened in the real estate market, we are hugely upside down with our investments. As far as market trading, we’ve studied stocks and options, and more recently commodities and we are just starting forex. Unfortunately with the training we received in stocks and options we were losing money in paper trading, so we never opened a real account. We did receive outstanding technicals training and it is evident that this training is just as useful in commodities, forex, and ETFs. I’ve read thru your blueprint on ETFs and I’m quite excited about the possibilities. In fact, we feel certain that we’ve finally found the markets that we want to trade: commodities, forex and ETFs. Leverage and liquidity is the key. We have set up self-directed IRAs and 401K/Roths so we have funds available to begin trading once we feel confident enough to ‘bite the bullet’ and just go for it. We want market trading to become a huge part of providing us with monthly cash flow, hopefully substantial cash flow.

Question 2: How do you think supercharging your portfolio with ETFs will help you? We like most everyone else with managed accounts have been taught to buy and hold for the long-haul, which resulted in substantial losses over the years. I see ETFs as a means to substantially boost our nest egg regardless if the market is bullish or bearish. We are both now in our mid-50’s and expect to live for a lot more years and we need to make our principle grow consistently and constantly. We see market trading as a viable way for us to provide for our lifestyle for the rest of our lives. We certainly cannot rely on mutual funds, money markets, or brokers. We need to become successfully financially self-reliant.

Congratulations to everyone for taking part in the contest. It was a lot of fun to read about your stories, desires, and hopes for the future.

We hope the 3 winners enjoy their free copies. They will be shipped out ASAP when they return from the printers this week.
