Marin gets personal about the state of the financial newsletter industry. This includes a few NSFW rants about how not to get screwed over… Later he breaks down the gold and silver markets… where these commodities are headed next year… which names will benefit the most… and which ones you should avoid at all costs. Marin also talks about another out-of-favor commodity—one where he’s putting a ton of his personal money right now. Find out why he calls this opportunity “one of the greatest of his career”…
