Your Inside Guide to the Year’s Biggest Tech Event
Right now, some of the world’s top innovators have gathered to show off their latest breakthrough tech.

Any one of the products or services they’re demonstrating could change your life in amazing ways.
James Altucher says they’ll also create tremendous profit opportunities as they go mainstream.
That’s why he’s hosting a live broadcast from the heart of the event on Tuesday, March 12, at 2 p.m. ET.
So mark your calendar — because you’re invited to tune in absolutely FREE.
You won’t need your wallet. In fact, you don’t need to register for anything at all.
I’ll tell you everything you need to know in a minute…
But first, let’s look at our Top Stories and the Reader Forum.
Your Top Stories & Analysis of the Week:
- “$1 Trillion in 100 Days!'' (Daily Reckoning, Brian Maher): It took the U.S. government 205 years to rack up a trillion dollars in debt. Now it’s adding that much red every 100 days! Brian walks you through the numbers… and what it means for our country. He also shares two possible solutions. The first would have a dire impact on your wallet. The second has roots to ancient times… and could create even more chaos.
- “Prospera: Freedom’s Final Stand” (Altucher Confidential, Chris Campbell): For the past few weeks, Chris has reported from an ambitious startup city called Prospera in Honduras. Now, on the eve of his departure, he shares the history of Prospera — and how it became an oasis of economic freedom and prosperity. He also details a plot that threatens to tear it apart. I think you’ll enjoy this look at how the world could be… and why it’s an idea worth fighting for.
- “Amazon Puts Robots to Work” (Altucher’s Investment Network, James Altucher): Human warehouse workers could soon be obsolete, thanks to stunning innovations in robotics. In fact, James recently told his Altucher’s Investment Network members that Amazon is already testing a humanoid automaton that can move boxes to conveyor belts. It costs almost as much to run the robot as it does to pay a flesh-and-blood employee. But as the technology advances, running costs will drop significantly. Soon, Amazon may be looking to take its robotic workers beyond the warehouse. The implications are huge — which is why I unlocked this story 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.

The Reader Forum:
On Feb. 26, Zach Scheidt recommended Altucher’s True Alpha members buy call options on Super Micro Computer Inc. (SMCI). Nine days later, he said to sell the calls for triple-digit gains.
True Alpha member Chad G. tells us:
Thanks for the SMCI trade advice. I made $20,000 profit for a 333.30% gain!... I’m very happy with the profits.
That’s amazing, Chad! I hope you were able to profit from Zach’s other big winner last week— the 100% gain on Intuitive Surgical Inc. (ISRG) calls. And I expect he’ll deliver even more gains ahead.
I can’t wait to share this with James and Zach.
Next up, Nannette H. wrote in to say:
I learn so much from everything that Paradigm puts out there. Great stuff... When I first signed up for service, I was so overwhelmed with all the material. Now I am so grateful for it… I just want to read the facts about something, anything, on a topic, not the added rhetoric. Especially when it is useless to the material. Thanks for all the great insight — it is priceless.
Nannette, I really appreciate your positive attitude. The Reader Forum gets plenty of letters from people who feel overwhelmed by the amount of information we sent. So it’s great to hear from someone who not only understands what we’re trying to do… but appreciates it!
You can bet I’ll be sharing this with everyone at Paradigm.
Finally today, while Bitcoin has been hitting fresh highs, gold has been on the move, too. And we’ve heard from plenty of people asking how to benefit from higher precious metals prices.
Jackie C. wrote Jim Rickards to ask:
Since gold and silver have gone up so much, is it too late to buy it now? Or should I wait and try to get it when it goes down again? Who do you buy your silver and gold from and where do you store it at?
Thanks for asking, Jackie. And since the answers to your questions will benefit everyone, I hope you don’t mind me sharing them here.
First, our analysts say that gold and silver are at the very start of a long march higher.
“It wouldn't be ridiculous for gold to double from here,” says Alan Knuckman, our trading specialist.
And Jim Rickards has long made the case that gold could go as high as $10,000 an ounce.
So it’s not too late to start buying precious metals. In fact, if you wait for the dips, you might miss your chance to buy in at all!
As for where to buy it, Paradigm Press has a long partnership with Hard Assets Alliance. It offers an easy platform for buying, holding and trading bullion bars and coins.
You can get started with just a few mouse clicks.
(Keep in mind that our partnership with Hard Assets Alliance means we may be compensated if you open an account. But we only joined forces with them because they offer the best way to trade and hold precious metals.)
That wraps up this week’s Reader Forum.

Get his thoughts on the Bitcoin exchange-traded funds and the crypto’s upcoming halving. Or learn his opinions on Nvidia Corp. (NVDA) and other AI 2.0 players.
