platinum membership
Learn how to build a fortune from the coming investment crisis starting today! The Platinum Membership is our most exclusive level membership with access to 38 learning modules, 700+ pages of always expanding content, 175+ lessons, 24 exercises, 160+ exam questions, and special reports in our system designed to teach you our revolutionary investment system, advanced wealth planning techniques and the best ways to invest money during this crisis, including the best ways to invest in silver and the best ways to invest in gold. However, to help you get started on your wealth-building journey, we provide you with 4 Special Reports that provide instructions for how you must immediately re-allocate your portfolio to benefit from this crisis and protect yourself from possible hyperinflation in the near future after a bout of deflation. These 4 Special Reports literally took us more than 200 hours of research to put together. Each report consists of meticulously researched, detailed topics regarding the real reasons behind this global economic collapse, some as long as 50 pages and filled with proprietary investment research you will not find anywhere else.

In preparation of this crisis, we have developed learning modules that specifically teach you how to identify the best and safest ways to invest money during this unfolding crisis - asset classes that behave very differently than traditional stocks and asset classes that will most likely see their most explosive periods of growth in the coming years. For the long-term thinker, after this crisis passes (in perhaps five years), our Platinum Membership online educational modules will teach you how to identify the safest places to invest money for the rest of your life without sacrificing the strong possibility of achieving financial freedom very rapidly.
Our PLATINUM Membership includes 38 of our learning modules designed for the adult investor, over 700+ pages of content, 24 exercises, 175+ lessons, 160+ exam questions, over 110 hours of e-learning and an additional 6 months of supplemental learning. Modules 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7A, 7B, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 & 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37 & 38.
SPECIAL BONUS
To help all of our members earn great returns using our system, we provide Platinum Special Alerts throughout the year. Sometimes, these bulletins are prompted by significant opportunities in global markets, significant dangers, significant developments in asset classes and sometimes just to notify our members of prime opportunities in specific stocks. Other times, we issue Platinum Special Alerts to update information in our 38 educational modules. Expect an average of 30-50 bulletins every year loaded with information you'll never hear anywhere else and primed to help you successfully apply our strategies to outperform like never before. In 2010, we delivered 51 Special Alerts to our Platinum Members only that provided critical information about the best ways to invest money during this crisis!

crisis investment opportunity (cio) newsletter
The SmartKnowledgeU™ Crisis Investment Opportunities newsletter is a great supplement to our online coursework. We believe that when combined with our SmartKnowledgeU™ online investment curriculum, you will receive the most value from this service, though many of our clients have also had great success by purchasing our newsletter alone. The Crisis Investment Opportunities newsletter will provide not only a Model Portfolio that contains approximately 15-20 global stocks that will inform you of the best ways to invest money during this crisis, but it will also provide the best non-paper assets that will help you create wealth during this unfolding financial crisis as well. An annual subscription to the Crisis Investment Opportunities newsletter will provide 12 monthly newsletters, on average each 35-55 pages in length, as well as numerous interim Special Alerts and bulletins to guide you through this unfolding crisis. We'll further provide commentary on market trends if we believe market-wide corrections are imminent, as well as commentary on asset trends. We have no limits and no boundaries when it comes to seeking low-risk, high-reward stocks and assets that provide the safest and best way to invest money. We search all developed (including U.S. markets) & emerging markets including Russia, Brazil, China, & India to provide you with the best stock picks in the world. This doesn't mean that we will necessarily have stocks from all these countries in our portfolio but we are constantly looking everywhere to provide low-risk, high-reward opportunities. Learn more

ATTENTION ALL SUBSCRIBERS Please note that all stocks discussed in the Crisis Investment Opportunities newsletter can be purchased through a global trading platform such as e*trade. All non-stock investment opportunities discussed in the Crisis Investment Opportunities newsletter should be able to be purchased easily by everyone regardless of your country of residence.
We have discovered that many of our competitors have continued to offer portfolios that solely focus on U.S. stock markets even though US stock focused portfolios have yielded some of the worst returns of any market over the last decade. Our competitors have even admitted that there US stock-focused portfolios are a poor product, but state that as long a people continue to buy it, they will continue to offer it. We don't believe in offering poor products just for the sake of corporate profits. Consider this analogy when comparing the Crisis Investment Opportunities newsletter to other more narrowly focused investment newsletters. If you were building an NBA all-star team, and confined your picks to 25% of the league versus considering 100% of the league, which team do you think would yield the much stronger team? This is the difference between a domestic-concentrated investment portfolio and one that considers the entire world for opportunities. Simply speaking, we think it's quite foolish to only consider the market of your home country, whether the US, India, China, Hong Kong, Brazil, Germany or the UK. We're here to tell you one thing and one thing only - the best way to invest money and create wealth when taking into consideration all stock markets and non-paper assets in the world, developed and emerging.
Each year, we deliberately build a Crisis Investment Opportunities newsletter portfolio that will be heavily overweighted to a few asset classes that we believe are firmly positioned to outperform while still providing a safe way to invest money. Why?
The only way to create wealth is through concentration in the best performing asset classes every year, not through diversification. In addition, we'll provide guidance as to the best times and price ranges to buy our favorite stock picks as well as when it may be time to take profits. Don't believe us? Simply read our fact sheet to view the returns that prove that our strategies have outperformed all major global stock market indexes by hundreds of percent since our launch just four years ago.
