Thank you for sharing the changes and honoring the original price. Your advice and recommendations have given me much peace. I will continue to recommend your services to others. Still invaluable at the increased rate.

This is the best market newsletter I have seen since I retired as a financial advisor. It gives me all the information I need without a lot of Wall Street "speak".Good luck and continued success as you expand our horizons.

A personal thanks from me. My subscription of a hundred bucks a year has been well worth it. As a result of mental and physical problems of my wife I have been forced into a difficult financial situation. At age 91 I thought I had provided adequately for our golden years, but that has turned out not to be the case. I have been forced to cancel or let expire all of my financial subscriptions, and to decrease my charitable giving. Hence, you four are all I have. Please keep me enrolled as long as I can come up with a hundred bucks when you ask. Again, my thanks, and you can use all of my name if you wish. John Cunningham

Worth every penny. Worth more actually. It feels like an honor to be an early subscriber, helping you all get things off the ground. Being rewarded with the original rate is just pure class on BPRs part.

The foundational price that we early subscribers got in on almost makes me feel like a thief---almost. The value proposition is lopsidedly in our favor. I subscribe to quite a few newsletters, and none are more "must read now" than BPR. Keep up the great work. I hope you are wrong about the path we are on and the unfolding grim future, but I know that HOPE is not a plan. BPR is.

Gentlemen, thank you for the past six months! I am 69 years old, and where I don’t necessarily agree 100% with all of what you all say, you do seem to speak my language! I feel you have my financial interests at heart. My allocations are similar to the ones you recommend, which gives me a secure feeling. I especially appreciate your insights, economic understandings, and opinions, presented in an honest and delightfully human way. And finally, for the first time, I get to be part of something from the ground up!

Best Wishes for many years,

Mick Morbitzer

Hello BPR staff.

I am an early reader of BPR and do like very much what I read. It is usefull,funny and sometimes sad.

Sad for what the worls has become to.

I live in Europe(Holland) and would appreciate very much a(occasionally?) comment(s) on how the economy in Europe evolves compared to the US.Tom talks about stock in the US. Are there stocks to be recommended here in Europe (to avoid the Euro-Dollar fluctuations.)

Looking forward and my best regards.

Canada, too. How do you fellows negotiate all the currencies you encounter in your lives? I've assumed that you simply invest in USD markets for simplicity sake. But the simplicity is becoming more complicated daily, no?

I am tickled to have found y'all! Tom's investment advice has truly changed our perspective and lives starting in 2020. The newsletters are valuable, good humored and easy to read and digest. Thank you for stepping outside the box and following what you wanted to do.

It was between 10 and 20 years ago that I contacted Howard Ruff personally asking his reference for Bill Bonner. He responded with a pithy, 1 sentence email: "Bill is one of the good guys."

I signed up very shortly thereafter, and have recalled Mr. Ruff's recommendation with gratitude many times since. Then surprise - the Bonner Private Research team is even better; remarkably better. It takes both confidence and humility to surround one's self with great people. Thank you all.

Ditto on all of the positive comments I see below. I too subscribe to a number of financial newsletters and this is the one I always go to first for the well-grounded discussion and the chance to maintain my sense of humor despite the economic and other tragedies being foisted upon us by the world's currency printers. Thanks for all you do at a bargain rate.

Over the years I have listened to a variety of financial/personal information. Bill's musings. Writings from Dan Denning. Tom Dyson's most recent family and financial info. And a wide variety of other financial advisors. I decided to follow BPR exclusively - it is too much trouble to balance the many ideas of everyone into some kind of a plan. I have managed over the past six months to shift many of what I had as investments into Gold and Silver - real and paper forms - to 36.3% of my Assets. I am working on the Cash and Stock side - these are harder to adjust - and am at 17.5% Cash and the remainder in stocks of various types. This is my path. I am not going to try and second guess any of it, but rather wait and see how it all turns out. At 81 years of age and with 55 years of investing of all kinds, this one has a rationale and a program that makes sense to me. Besides, I enjoy the spooky writing, the economic analysis and financial info laid out. Best to the team. Joe V

I cannot put into words how much I’ve loved BPR so far. I subscribed in the middle of February after a family friend (and investor colleague) shared a few articles. You give me peace of mind as we all navigate this storm together. I know we (and our finances) will come out on top in the end.

Dan, your services are second to none and I appreciate you have been supportive of those who joined early. I look forward to the future with confidence in the knowledge your team is very much on the ball. Regards Ron

Thank you for the info. I have thoroughly enjoyed BPR. Of course I have always followed all of you guys somehow or other for years, but to get you all in one huddle is unbelievable. The format is wonderful without having to put up with those awful videos and promotion of "every other Tom, Dick, and Harry". I have just about tuned out most other voices out there and can't wait to hear what you guys are gonna say. Love you all, but especially Byron King. He has always been my favorite because of his vast knowledge and experience. And thanks for keeping the yearly rate the same.

From ‘Down Under’ WA 🇦🇺, here in ‘remote’ O&G, gold, metals and everything else territory. My take is you guys are doing a great thought provoking & challenge, role for readers.

Absolutely support your quirky at times comments but frank “…we aren’t sure about everything in uncertain times” honesty.

Please keep going especially the non advertising & avoiding flow on promoting of every other Tom, Dick and Jeff experts👍

Thank you. It’s not very often in this crazy world of ours that someone honours the original price and first subscribers like you did. I enjoy reading your newsletter since it provides valuable information on the trading and world in general. Keep up the good work and know that your work enlightens your subscribers in many parts of the world. I am in Australia and I always look forward to your emails.

Thank you and God bless
