Enjoy a Whiskey on Us!🍻

Our biggest event of the year is just six weeks away…

And if you haven’t claimed your spot yet, your chance to join us is disappearing quickly. 

In a minute, I’ll tell you exactly why you’ll want to be at our 2023 Paradigm Shift Summit. 

(Beyond the free lunch, cocktail hour and GREAT company, that is.)

But first, here are our top stories and the Reader Forum.

Your Top Stories & Analysis of the Week:

• “Here’s How I Invest My Own Retirement Funds'' (Rich Retirement Letter, Zach Scheidt): As a former hedge fund manager and our current income and trading specialist, Zach knows a thing or two about making money. So you may be interested to learn how he invests his personal cash. Zach explains how he balances conservative plays with aggressive trades — and shares suggestions for putting a similar plan in place for yourself.

• “Where’s All the Money In AI?” (Technology Profits Daily, Ray Blanco): We’ve all heard how artificial intelligence (AI) technology is going to create a new generation of billionaires. Yet OpenAI — the company that kicked off Wall Street’s current AI obsession — is teetering on the brink of bankruptcy. Ray explores what’s happening at OpenAI… and what it means for the industry going forward. 

• "A BRICS Prep Session with Jim" (Jim Rickards’ Strategic Intelligence, Jim Rickards): Leaders from Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa are holding a major summit this week. But it isn’t some meaningless photo op. What happens during the get-together could reshape international finance as we know it. Jim recently gave his Strategic Intelligence readers a Q&A about what to expect. Considering the wide-ranging implications, you should bring yourself up to speed, too. That’s why I’ve unlocked it for you.

Remember, we publish tens to HUNDREDS of stories. The write-ups and presentations above are our TOP ones for the week — including one that had been roped off from the public. If you want to stay ahead of the pack, make sure you’re caught up now. 

And if you’d like to nominate any of our stories for next week’s “Top 3,” just let me know at concierge@paradigmpressgroup.com.

The Reader Forum:

First from the mailbag today, Income Alliance member Dennis D. tells us in a five-star Google review: 

That trade was incredible, yielding me one of the highest profits I have ever made trading options. Thanks Zach & keep up the great work.

Dennis, thank you for the review! But which winning trade are you talking about? Was it the 54% on iShares 20 Plus Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) puts in 14 days… or the 52% on Spotify Technology (SPOT) puts in 10 days? 

Either way, I’m happy you’re benefiting from Zach’s wisdom. I look forward to sharing this with him!

Next, Omega Wealth Circle member Richard E. wants us to know:

I’ll be 84 this month and am so very grateful to have found Paradigm Press and the rest of your stable of world-class editors under the excellent leadership of Jim.

Happy early birthday, Richard! And thanks for the kind words. We wish you many more years of health and wealth. You can bet I’lll share this with everyone at Paradigm. 

Finally for today, while we’re encouraged by the compliments we receive, I’m also happy to answer your questions whenever I can.

But there are limits to how much we can help. For example, Frederick J. asks Jim Rickards: 

Can I work with you one-on-one? I think that's the only way I'm going to learn to get it.

Thanks for reaching out, Frederick. And while we’d love to provide one-on-one coaching, it’s simply not possible.

On top of logistical problems, there’s also the fact that SEC regulations forbid our team from giving anything that could be considered personalized investment advice. 

The good news is that most of our services are designed to be so simple that you shouldn’t need any hand-holding. And our free Wealth Desk reports can help you turn our recommendations into action.

Not sure how to get started with a stock broker? We have a guide for that. Need to know how stock options work? We’ve got you covered, too. 

Is it something else? We’re looking to post more Wealth Desk reports… so let me know where you need more guidance. 

I’m always standing by for your emails at concierge@paradigmpressgroup.com.

Questions? I’ll get answers! Comments? Let me hear them! Problems? I’ll try to solve them! 

This is YOUR forum!

Now, here’s what’s happening around the water cooler this week…

The Water Cooler — Upcoming Events and More

Our Jim Rickards says this is going to be a pivotal week for the currency markets.

(If you haven’t heard his warning yet, check it out here.)

What happens next will play out over the next several weeks and months… threatening to steamroll your wealth if you don’t understand the dangers.

It’s such an important topic that we’ve built our 2023 Paradigm Shift Summit around it.

We’re calling it, “Don’t Bet on the Dollar.”

Hopefully you’ve signed up to join us at the Bellagio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas on Oct. 3.

All of our top analysts will be there: Jim… James… Sean… Zach… Alan… Byron… Ray… 

We even have a special guest speaker lined up.

You’ll hear their absolute latest thoughts on the markets — including how to deal with the unfolding currency debacle.

And you’ll go home with fresh insights and exclusive recommendations… 

Last year, Alan told the crowd about specific call options on Newmont Mining (NEM) that went on to double in price. 

Even if you had just bought the shares outright, you would have seen a nice gain.

So you definitely don’t want to miss what our world-class experts will have to say this time.

Your ticket includes a complimentary lunch, where you’ll have a chance to meet and get to know other members.

Be sure to stop by the Paradigm Press table so I can say hi to you in person.

You’ll also want to stick around for our complimentary cocktail hour, followed by our always popular Whiskey Bar.

If you’ve seen videos of previous Whiskey Bars, you know how fun and informative these free-for-all panel discussions can be. 

Now you can experience it in person!

But if you haven’t secured your ticket yet, I urge you to act soon. We’re nearing capacity… and once we’ve sold out, there’s no way for you to get in.

Click here to claim your seat.

I look forward to meeting you in Las Vegas. Maybe we’ll even have a chance to clink glasses during our cocktail hour!
