465,000 Pre-Paid Card Holders At Risk After JP Morgan Cyber Attack

JPMorgan Chase & Co is warning some 465,000 holders of prepaid cash cards issued by the bank that their personal information may have been accessed by hackers who attacked its network in July.
The cards were issued for corporations to pay employees and for government agencies to issue tax refunds, unemployment compensation and other benefits.

JPMorgan said on Wednesday it detected that its web servers used by its site www.ucard.chase.com had been breached in the middle of September. It then fixed the issue and reported it to law enforcement.

Bank spokesman Michael Fusco said that in the months since the breach was discovered the bank has been investigating to find out exactly which accounts were involved and what pieces of information could have been taken. He declined to discuss how the attackers breached the bank's network.
Fusco said the bank is notifying the cardholders, who account for about 2 percent of its roughly 25 million UCard users, about the breach because it cannot rule out the possibility that their personal information was among the data removed from its servers.

The bank typically keeps the personal information of its customers encrypted, or scrambled, as a security precaution. However, during the course of the breach, personal data belonging to those customers had temporarily appeared in plain text in files the computers use to log activity.

The bank believes "a small amount" of data was taken, but not critical personal information such as social security numbers, birth dates and email addresses.

Cyber criminals covet such data because it can be used to open bank accounts, obtain credit cards and engage in identity theft. Many states require banks to notify customers if they believe there is any chance that such information may have been taken in a breach.

The bank is also offering the cardholders a year of free credit-monitoring services.

The warning only affects the bank's UCard users, not holders of debit cards, credit cards or prepaid Liquid cards.

Fusco said the bank has not found that any funds were stolen as a result of the breach and that it has no evidence that other crimes have been committed. As a result, it is not issuing replacement cards.

The spokesman declined to identify the government agencies and businesses whose customers it had warned about the breach. Fox 8 News in New Orleans reported on its website that three Louisiana agencies were notified by the bank on Wednesday that the personally identifiable information of some state citizens may have been exposed.

State officials could not be reached for comment late Wednesday.

The bank said it does not know who was behind the attack, though the Secret Service and FBI are investigating the matter.

Businesses and government agencies are increasingly using prepaid cards because they are easier to cash than paper checks.

Yet the vast stores of data behind payment cards of all kinds have created new risks. In 2007 some 41 million credit and debit card numbers from major retailers, including the owner of T.J. Maxx stores, were stolen.

In May of this year U.S. prosecutors said a global cybercrime ring had stolen $45 million from banks by hacking into credit card processing firms and withdrawing money from automated teller machines in 27 countries.

Fiery Fatal Car Crash Takes Life of Fast and Furious Actor, Paul Walker and a Friend



Actor Paul Walker, passed away today due to a fatal car crash. Saturday, November 30, 2013.

Paul Walker, the actor whose stardom catapulted with the Fast and Furious movie franchise, died Saturday in a car crash in Southern California. He was 40 years old.

His publicist, Ame Van Iden, confirmed Walker's death. His official Twitter and Facebook fan pages released a statement Saturday night that said the actor died in an accident while attending a charity event for his organization Reach Out Worldwide.

"He was a passenger in a friend's car, in which both lost their lives," read the statement signed #TeamPW. "We appreciate your patience as we, too, are stunned and saddened beyond belief by this news. Thank you for keeping his family and friends in your prayers during this very difficult time."

The celebrity news website TMZ reported Walker was in a Porsche that lost control and crashed into a tree.


A statement from the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff's Station said deputies responded to a fiery crash in Valencia about 3:30 p.m. Saturday afternoon.

"The Los Angeles County Fire Department responded, extinguished the fire and subsequently located two victims inside the vehicle. The victims were pronounced dead at the scene," the statement read.

The other person in the car has not been identified.

Walker had been filming the seventh movie in the "Fast and Furious" series before the crash took his life.

The original movie, titled The Fast and the Furious, starred Walker alongside Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster. Walker played Brian O'Conner, an undercover Los Angeles police officer assigned to infiltrate the world of underground street racing who eventually got pulled into the lifestyle.

Walker had parts in notable films before joining the Fast and Furious franchise. He played in the popular teen-centric films Varsity Blues and She's All That as well as Pleasantville and a headlining role in Meet the Deedles.

Prior to that, he had bit TV parts in Touched By an Angel, The Young and the Restless, Who's the Boss, Charles in Charge and Diff'rent Strokes.

Walker began acting as a young child, and his first roles were in TV commercials. He was born Sept. 12, 1973 in Glendale, CA.


Story By George Jones/Raycom
 
 
 
 
 
 Universal conveyed its condolences to Walker's family, saying, "All of us at Universal are heartbroken. "Paul was truly one of the most beloved and respected members of our studio family for 14 years, and this loss is devastating to us, to everyone involved with the Fast and Furious films, and to countless fans."

More tributes flowed on social media websites such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.

"So sad. He gave a lot of joy," wrote James Franco, while model/actor Tyson Beckford posted "Tyson Beckford: RIP Paul Walker, loved working with you on "Into the Blue."

Television host Carson Daly said that he was "Sick about the tragic loss of #PaulWalker.

"I enjoyed our time together very much. Such a really nice guy," while actress Alyssa Milano, current host of "Project Runway All Stars," protested "No. No. No" before adding "Rest with the angels."

3D Printing Revolutionizes the Fashion Industry

Is There Nothing 3D Printing Can't Do?


By
Monday, August 12th, 2013


By now, you've heard about the new trend in high-tech precision manufacturing known universally as 3D printing.

One story of particular note came out of a Boeing plant in California last year. It demonstrated just how adaptable and versatile this technology — initially dubbed stereolithography — has become since its first introduction in the 1980s.The story goes something like this...

A high-volume coffeemaker in one of the plant's lounges had broken down when an internal plastic part failed from fatigue.

Upon discovery of the defective part, a plant technician commandeered one of the facility's industrial-sized 3D printers, which had been configured to produce precision metal alloy components for jet turbines. The technician quickly reprogrammed the printer, put in the parameters for the coffeemaker component, and 'printed' a new, perfect copy of the plastic original — only out of aircraft-grade aluminum alloy.

Within thirty minutes of the 3D printer going on hiatus, the coffeemaker was brewing coffee, workers were caffeinated, and the printer was back up and running, turning out micrometer-precise parts for airliner engines.

Here we have a small, perhaps insignificant example... and yet one of the most telling as far as demonstrating just how wide a spectrum of applications this technology can tackle, and with ease.
Here's another example — and this one is bigger than coffeemaker parts...

Instead of demonstrating versatility, 3D printing has now gone on to show the other component of a commercially viable technology: acceptance by mainstream consumer product manufacturers.

This is an industry that's generally not associated with cutting-edge technology. I'm talking about fashion.

The trend is growing both for the convenience of the process as well as for the styles it naturally creates.

Toronto-based Hot Pop Factory, for example, markets an entire line of 3D-printed jewelry.

Israeli fashion designer Ron Arad is now printing sunglasses. The pair pictured below sells for $150.

3dprintedshades

Athletic footwear giant New Balance prints an otherworldly series of running shoes, computer-molded to fit just one pair of feet.

3dsneaks

And now, for the first time ever, a clothing designer has begun making the world's first fully-function, fully-wearable stereolithographic apparel.

Headquartered in San Francisco, Continuum Fashion became a pioneer of stereolithograph couture by attacking the market in a spot sure to capture attention: swimwear.

Right now, you can create your own two-piece swimsuit through their website, fit to your exact color and sizing specifications, and have it manufactured from 3D-printed nylon.

You can also order jewelry, shoes, even a dress... and have it in your hands in just several days' time.

Remember, this is the same technology that can produce airliner components out of titanium, or coffee mugs from ceramic.

It's that versatile.

Strange Story: Georgia Child Burned After Gasoline Poured on Slide Ignites

Walton County, Georgia
November 14, 2013

A two-year-old girl has been severely burned in suburban Atlanta in a freak accident after gasoline poured on an outdoor slide to make it slicker ignited from static electricity, police said on Tuesday.

The toddler and her four-year-old sister were playing on a swing set on Saturday when the gasoline was put on the slide, said Keith Brooks, chief deputy of the Walton County Sheriff's Office.

Investigators do not know which of the two siblings poured the gasoline but determined, after finding no other ignition source, that static electricity sparked the blaze, Brooks said.

"This was a freak accident," he said. "It's definitely strange that something like this would happen."

The two-year-old was flown by helicopter to a hospital in Atlanta and put into a medically induced coma to help her cope with the pain from her critical injuries, Brook said.

Grady Health System, the hospital where she was taken, declined to comment on her condition on Tuesday.

No charges are expected to be filed, the chief deputy said.

Jennifer Lollis, center of photo posted to the left, says 4-year-old Kayleigh, left, helped save her sister’s life. Alyssa, right, was critically injured when gasoline poured on a slide ignited Saturday in Walton County.

“If it wouldn’t have been for Kayleigh, she probably wouldn’t be here,” Jennifer Lollis, the girls’ mother, said in the waiting room of the Grady burn unit.

Lollis, of Covington, said her daughters were spending the weekend with their father when she got the phone call about the accident. She immediately went to Grady, where doctors have told her Alyssa is fortunate to have survived.

“My world has completely turned upside down,” Lollis said. “I’m still in shock.”

On Monday, Alyssa endured a four-hour surgery, and many more will follow, Lollis said. Many of Alyssa’s burns are third-degree, but her back is the most severely burned and has doctors most concerned.

Lollis said her youngest daughter likely faces months in the hospital, followed by an extensive recovery period. But one of the hardest parts for Lollis is knowing that the incident could have been avoided.

“Anything can happen, just like that. Children will be children,” Lollis said. “They should never be left unattended, ever. This was a very preventable thing that happened.”

Compound Gold Outpaces Wall Street's #1 Gold Investment by 468%


The ONLY way to trounce gold's gains without having to buy coins, ETFs, options, major gold mining stocks, or tiny exploration stocks...

Source: Wealth Daily

Dear Reader,

Two years ago, a stunningly-profitable gold investment algorithm made waves as it passed by word of mouth from investor to investor in Vancouver's exclusive and famously secretive precious-metals mining community...

Back then, the gold bull run was in full swing, and this algorithm quickly became a buzzword... first among the pros and then, eventually, with anybody interested in profiting off the precious metal trend.

The algorithm — nicknamed "Compound Gold" by insiders and private investors — took advantage of rapidly-rising gold prices to tap profits into formerly dormant mining operations.

Gains from this investment strategy could multiply the percentage gained by gold bullion by factors of 5, 10, 20 — even 50-fold or more.

Best of all, it's such a simple strategy to employ, it could literally be accomplished through a single trade on your online trading account.

Among these investors was the legendary John Paulson, who'd previously made himself a household name when he banked $2 billion shorting the housing market.

When he made his relatively quiet Compound Gold investment in 2009, few people took notice...
You can bet that things weren't so quiet when, 15 months later, Paulson walked away with $314 million in profit — having traded just one stock.

Since those early days of the previous metals bull market, things have changed. If you've been keeping up to speed on gold prices these days, or the outlook for the future, things don't seem quite as bright and shiny as they once were... at least, not at first glance.

ms-compound-gold-chart1

After peaking out just south of $1,900/ounce in September of 2011, the gold market's cooled, gradually meandering down to a low of $1,354 in May 2013 before settling at its current price of $1,400.
As strong as Compound Gold was during those post-crisis years, the algorithm cooled right along with the gold market.

Of course, as you well know, with every depreciation in price, a whole new set of opportunities opens up for a low buy-in.
ms-compound-gold-tearout1
With prices now stable about 25% down from their 2011 peak, private precious metals investors — as well as the institutional investors like Paulson who routinely close 8- and 9-figure returns — are starting to eye the yellow metal once again...

Which means Compound Gold is about to kick it into high gear once again for another round of super-charged profits.

This time, however, there's a wild card in play that did not exist the last time the algorithm activated during the post-crisis gold rush... a unique, highly-guarded investment that for the past two months, even as gold prices took a downturn, has broken all the rules by giving investors the kinds of returns not seen since before the 2011 peak.

But as prices stabilize, and conditions begin to reset to reactivate Compound Gold trading, mining industry insiders are waiting with bated breath to see the true potential of this wild card.

In the next few minutes, I'll tell you everything you need to know about this one-of-a-kind investment, how you can get yourself involved with just a couple clicks on your online brokerage account and, most importantly, the eye-popping returns it could bring you within days of entry.

Before I get to that, though, I want to explain to you how Compound Gold works and why now — just like during the crisis years — investment pros and industry insiders are waiting for it to reawaken.

The Insiders' Secret: Compound Gold
There's an old joke in the industry that goes, "You can't mine gold for $500 an ounce, sell it for $300, and make up the difference in volume."

And that's precisely the problem with most companies that own property containing gold, silver, or anything else that's valuable...

Getting the valuable material out of the ground costs money... money that cuts into profits.
Cut enough of the profit and eventually, that land embedded with all those millions of ounces of gold and silver becomes worthless.

Just imagine... something worth billions of dollars — and nobody willing to shell out a dollar to own it.
Twenty-five years ago, when gold was trading at $350 and silver at $7, finding properties like this wasn't hard. More importantly, buying them was even easier.

Because no matter the size of the property — or how many million ounces of gold it held — anybody with an average-grade deposit who decided to start mining right then and there would be doomed to bankruptcy... making those properties worthless.

For those willing to bide their time, however, unimaginable fortune was around the corner.

Let's say you have a 3 million ounce gold deposit, an entry-level purchase for any major mining operation...
With cost of production at, for example, $400/ounce, that deposit would be functionally worthless when gold's market value is at $400/ounce. The owner would neither profit nor lose from the development of that property.

But if the market price rises by just a single dollar from that $400/ounce baseline...

That property suddenly becomes worth $3 million.

Historically, though, your gains would have been much, much bigger.

If you'd bought this 3 million ounce property back in February 1987, when gold was trading for $400/ounce, you'd have an asset with an overall value of zero dollars.

Three months later — when gold hit $470/ounce — that formerly worthless property would now be valued at $210 million.

By December of that year, with gold up to $500, it would be worth $300 million.

Or if you want to look at it in terms of percentages gained:

Start with the same cost of production: $400/ounce...

If the market price of gold exceeded this $400 threshold — even by as little as 1% — this modest property which was worthless the day before... would suddenly become a $12 million dollar asset.
If a week later the price of gold went up a mere $8.00 per ounce (just 2%, based on mid-80s prices), the price of that suddenly valuable asset would double...

A 10% jump in gold price and the value is now up 1,000%.

compoundgoldchart
But remember, the $400/ounce cost is just an example...

Every property — every mine — has its own specific break-even point.

Some higher-grade deposits break even below $400/oz, sending their stock skywards earlier on, while lower-grade properties break even well above $400/oz, launching their stock later.

The only trick is knowing that point and buying the stock when the market price of gold is as close to that point as possible: when the cost of production to gold market price ratio is near or at 1.

ms-chart-3
Hit that "sweet spot," and any subsequent jump in market price immediately launches the stock into exponential growth.

So it's not just a gold investment — but a Compound Gold investment, as it compounds incremental changes in gold price to generate major profits from a specialized type of property.

It's so efficient at gaining ground and so reliable, in fact, that Compound Gold trades have outpaced the world's single most popular gold investment, the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) — which itself nearly doubled from $97 to $185 between November 2009 and late 2011 — by 458%.

And it doesn't just work for gold...

A company holding 85 million ounces of silver (not a large deposit by major industrial standards) that was worth zero dollars at $6/ounce... would be worth $17 million if the price of silver went up by just 20 cents.
If silver prices increase less than 10% — from $6 to $6.50 — our property would now be worth $43 million.

And if you'd bought this property in 1986... by the end of 1987, with silver at $10/ounce, this "worthless" property would have a net value of $340 million.

I know this comes off as amazing, but it's actually pretty simple; you just need the market to be heading in the right direction, and Compound Gold immediately picks up speed.

Here's what I mean:

When gold prices spiked back in the mid 1980s, millions of gold investors made 50%, 60%, as much as 80% on bullion.

A tiny handful of Compound Gold investors who had the skill and luck to find the right companies just as gold prices were reaching and exceeding their specific costs of production... made thousands of percent — hundreds of dollars returned for every dollar invested.

ms-chart-4
This sort of speed and reliability puts Compound Gold in a class of its own among gold investments.
It was so powerful that it gave rise to a whole new class of investors — and helped the precious metals mining industry explode into the sector it is today.

But here's the catch: There are times when this method simply won't work.

You see, back in the 80s, we were in the midst of one of modern history's greatest precious metals bull markets. But just before the run started in 1985, a few people who knew what was coming went around deserted stretches of land in North and South America, buying up seemingly worthless tracts of land — land where there were proven gold deposits, but where the cost of production would bankrupt a company in short order.

And then the boom hit — and it was time to sit back and watch the profits collect.

Of course, nothing good lasts forever. When the precious metals bull market cooled off in the 1990s, anybody working this tactic would have to stop operations... and wait until the next one.

That next one came around after the economy crisis of 2008... and lasted a good three years before this most recent cooling off of the market.

But now, it looks like we've finally hit the reset button. And with gold just barely touching $1,400/ounce, there's a lot of room for growth in the near term.

As you just learned reading about the simple mechanism behind Compound Gold, with each dollar that gold gains... properties and companies that had never been profitable suddenly cross over into the black and transform overnight.

It paused for a while after the 2011 peak — but as prices hit multi-year lows, the moment to take full advantage of it all over again is here now.

The New Bull Market is Just Getting Started...

Even after recent slumps, you still can't open a newspaper or click through a financial news site without seeing quotes like these:
ms-testimonial-1ms-testimonial-2ms-testimonial-3ms-testimonial-4ms-testimonial-5
5 Reasons Gold Will
Continue to Rise
1) Economy
The U.S. manufacturing base has been shipped overseas. The few jobs being created are in the service industry or government sector. The official unemployment rate hovers near 10%, and 1 out of every 5 Americans is on food stamps. The 2008 economic implosion destroyed the real estate market, sent foreclosures skyrocketing, and swallowed up a nearly $1 trillion bailout... and yet, most experts predict the worst is still to come.
2) Fear 
The sovereign debt crisis threatens to spread across the globe. Fearful investors are shifting assets from the euro and other weakening currencies into gold. The stock market rebounded from its 2008-09 depths, but some analysts say it's overbought and due for painful correction. Meanwhile, turmoil across the Middle East, Asia, and elsewhere is exacting huge costs in American blood and treasure...
3) Demand
The Federal Reserve has kept U.S. interest rates at virtually zero with no sign of a hike on the horizon, thereby lowering the opportunity cost of buying gold. And investors have responded with astonishing eagerness, even forcing the U.S. Mint to ration popular bullion products in order to meet overwhelming demand. Expect central banks in China, India, and Russia to fuel demand for gold.
4) ReflationOf the major assets, only Treasuries and gold have escaped the selling panic that has gripped the markets. Rushes on gold have caused mints around the world to run out of popular gold coins. Because of the inflationary impact of government bailouts, $2,000 could be the floor, not the ceiling.
5) The DollarDollar weakness, plentiful liquidity, and policy reflation will be persistent themes in the future. Massive fiscal and monetary stimulus have weakened the dollar, whose current resurgence stems mainly from the European debt crisis. Once that crisis reaches the debt-burdened United States, the dollar's weakness as a currency will be evident to all — and its role as the world's reserve currency will be in jeopardy. As always, gold will be the first and most universal remedy.
But with today's gold price at $1,400, finding companies with the perfect cost of production levels is actually easier than it was two years ago.

Companies with production costs at or near today's
Compound Gold sweet spot are more common today because there is so much more room to profit.

The profit potential for this highly-specialized breed of companies is simply staggering — easily as strong as it was in the days when Paulson made his storied purchases, and far, far in excess of anything we saw back in the early bull runs of the 1980s.

Remember, for gold to just rise a few dollars is enough for these stocks to start doubling or tripling.

Dare to think big, though, and you'll see the real opportunities start to materialize...

If gold itself doubles, you could be looking at 100, 500, even 1,000 times your initial investment.

Just imagine investing $1,000 today... and in two years, cashing out a cool million.

All that matters is finding the right company — with the right cost of production levels — and waiting for that sweet spot.
I know what you're going to say: All these theories and stories are great... but you want to see a live example of what happens when a company hits the Compound Gold sweet spot.

Instantly in the Black: South American Silver Corp

Like I mentioned before, what works for gold also works for silver, and here's an example of just that...

In October of 2009, South American Silver Corp. (SAC) was a tiny $13 million company trading at 13 cents a share.

Investors looking at just the stock value would have been misled, because within SAC's property in Bolivia was an estimated 322 million ounces of silver.

Even at 2009 prices, this deposit had a theoretical value of over $5.1 billion.

But here's where the algorithm comes in...

Because the low-grade ore found in great abundance on this property would cost about $20/ton to process into raw silver, the owners of this property would have been losing $2/ton on their investment (at late 2009 silver prices).

Their $5.1 billion asset wasn't an asset at all. It was a liability.
But over the next 20 months, the price of silver did something spectacular:

ms-chart-5

In a rally to rival all rallies, silver jumped from $18.50 an ounce to over $50!
That's a gain of over 170%.

Not bad, right? You could have invested $10,000, and by the summer of 2011, cashed out with $27,000.
But remember this: At $18/ounce, SAC was virtually worthless... but at $50/ounce, less than two years later, this company was profiting $32/ounce!

At that price, the entire property had a total resource value of $16.1 billion — with $10.3 billion of that being pure profit.

In case you can't imagine what that does to a company's stock price, here's what South American Silver Corp looked like as it passed its sweet spot last year:

ms-chart-6

Between September 2009 and April 2011, South American Silver went from 13 cents to over $3.00 for a gain of 2,307%.

So if instead of putting that $10k into raw silver, you bought SAC just as its cost of production hit that sweet spot...

You'd have made a pre-tax profit of $230,000.

It's not a trick, it's not a fluke, and you don't need any specialized brokers or understanding of finance to execute... With a single trade, anybody who knew the cost of silver production for this one Bolivian property would have made millions in less than two years' time.

Want another example?

Here's Copper Mountain Mining Corporation (CUM).
It hit its break-even price back at the end of 2008, when gold prices were at $800/ounce. In the two years since, as the sweet spot came and went, the stock looked like this:

ms-chart-7

So while gold doubled to $1,830 an ounce in the 26 months following that magical sweet spot, this company went from 40 cents to $8.00 — a self-sustained gain of 2,000%.

The gains took the company up from a tiny $30 million exploration outfit to an exploding $600 million gold mining powerhouse... and would have turned a $10k investment into $200,000.

Here's a third example: Agnico-Eagle Mines Ltd. (AEM).

This one goes back more than a decade — and illustrates the point that every property has its own specific break-even point, which can be exploited.

ms-chart-8

As the gold market picked up after going through a dry patch in the 90s, the profits on paper suddenly materialized, and the value of this company's property shot up exponentially.

It took a little while longer than usual, but in the end it was a monster success story — gaining 2,600% as it climbed from $3 to $80.

Not convinced?

Here's yet another example...

ms-chart-9

This company, Gabriel Resources (GBU), hit its sweet spot back in 2009. By mid-2011, it had grown by over 800% into a $2.5 billion giant. (In that same time, gold only rose by 60%!)

This wasn't that small of a company to begin with, but an established firm worth hundreds of millions. Regardless, its rise was so easy to predict — and so reliable — that billionaire investor and hedge fund superstar John Paulson bought a full 18% of the company.

The purchase was just one of the many gold investments he made that year... Paulson also invested heavily in physical gold, as well as a number of larger North American producers.

But this play was by far the strongest-gainer of the bunch, helping to make 2010 the biggest year of his already legendary career.

"Mr. Paulson, a hedge fund manager who sprang to fame when the housing market collapsed, personally made about $5 billion in 2010, according to two investors in his company." — NY Times

If the several examples above don't convince you, here are a few more:

1.) International Tower Hill Mines Limited (THM): December 2008: 98 cents — January 2011: $10.00 (1,020% GAIN)

2.) Northern Dynasty Minerals (NAK): November 2008: $1.80 — February 2011: $21.90 (1,216% GAIN)

3.) Teck Resources Limited (TCK): March 2009: $3.30 — January 2011: $61.00 (1,848% GAIN)

4.) New Gold Inc. (NGD): December 2008: $1.70 — August 2011: $13.07 (768% GAIN)

5.) Osisko Mining Corporation (OSK.TO): December 2008: 75 cents — December 2010 $16.00 (2,133% GAIN)

And that's just a small sampling...

Which illustrates my final point: Professional investors and industry insiders have been banking billions off this method for years.

In other words, using this basic principal isn't a new or novel idea. In fact, many of the professional commodities investors refuse to make any trades in which this algorithm hasn't predicted success.

Unfortunately, this simple yet essential system of investment is almost completely overlooked by do-it-yourself investors. This baffles me, but it's just a fact of life in today's financial world...

A vast majority of today's investors have simply never heard of Compound Gold — nor do they understand the basic principal behind its pattern of success.

So you can already consider yourself a member of the elite. After all, you already know how and why this system works and the basic principal behind putting it into action to make yourself tens, even hundreds of times your money back in short order.

But picking the right company can still be tricky... There are so many to choose from, and digging through quarterly financial statements to come up with that perfect cost-of-production isn't exactly a weekend activity for everyone.

To my good friend and colleague, precious-metals guru Greg McCoach, it's a full-time job — and a career-long obsession.

And what he recently discovered is a company that's turned the Compound Gold concept on its head.

I Don't Specialize in an Industry; I Specialize in Making Money

My name is Jeff Siegel. I am the Investment Director and Managing Editor of one of Angel Publishing's longest running and most iconic investment newsletters, Energy and Capital.

One of our closest industry contacts — and one of my long-time friends — is the editor of our precious-metals newsletter, Mining Speculator. His name is Greg McCoach. Greg has been a specialist in the field for over two decades. And he's asked me to write him an intro to bring Compound Gold to a never-before tapped audience...

Just recently, Greg identified a gold mining company that seems to have shattered the mold.

This company — trading at around 70 cents — is still considered a junior miner.

For the last two months, it's been doing something quite remarkable...

While gold's been declining, eventually settling down at $1,400, this company's stock was flourishing — more than tripling in just several weeks in May of 2013!

Now, Greg's had this eye on the company for awhile, before any of this recent movement started.
The reason? He's got a proven method for weeding out the true winners from among the scores of average mining companies operating in this sector.

Over the past 25 years, Greg's experience has shown that there are three critical elements to raking in eye-popping returns...
ms-compound-gold-mccoach-portfolio

#1. The Advantage of Junior Mining Companies
Why invest in juniors?

That's easy — money and unparalleled leverage.

You see, it's not uncommon for junior-mining companies to experience huge gains (tenfold or more) very quickly as news of a discovery leaks out.

"When I first met you, you told me I could use the profits I would make in the mining stocks to pay off my house. I didn't really believe you. Two and a half-years later I recently wrote a check to do just that. I never thought this would be possible. Thank you so much for your wise guidance."  — Robert, Illinois.

On top of that, the resurging bull market in precious metals not only focuses more attention on the sector, but also causes even more money to be spent on exploration...

And the payback on a new find increases exponentially.

You see, in the mining world, it's no secret that most mineral deposits are found by junior mining companies and individual prospectors.

There are several reasons for this:

black check Junior explorers are not slow-moving bureaucracies like many senior companies; juniors make fast decisions both in the boardroom and in the field.
black checkSenior resource companies generally have a different role to play — namely, to fund and put into production deposits discovered and developed by juniors.

But it's the talent, motivation, and dedication of their management teams that is the secret to most juniors' success.

When investing in a junior mining company, you're investing in its management team as much as you are in its promising projects... which leads us to the second critical element to raking in eye-popping returns... 

#2. Know the Management Team Inside and Out

When Greg studies a company, he spends hours, days, and weeks with CEOs and geologists — even with companies he never actually recommends!

This is the only way to truly get a feel for their expertise.

After all, in the mining business, if an exploration geologist finds a mine, it's likely that he'll find others...

It's a fact that far fewer than 5% of all exploration geologists will ever be credited with a discovery leading to a producing mine. What's more, less than one out of every 1,000 exploration sites will ever turn into a mine.

But those select, gifted explorers who find numerous mines seem to have a sixth sense that helps them to succeed.

Finding these geologists isn't the easiest task in the world. But they're all drawn to it for the same reason: money.

It's the huge potential that comes when a discovery is made.

You see, as part of a junior mining company, the geologist who makes the discovery might get $10 million, $20 million, or $100 million in capital gains for his efforts.

After all, in the life cycle of a mining stock, it's the exploration phase that provides the biggest move in share price (leverage).

The best and brightest mine finders know it. And they'll search the world over to make a new discovery.
When they do, the monetary rewards are tremendous — for both the management team and for investors.

#3. The Simplest and Most Overlooked Part of Making a Fortune in Investing

It's best summed up by J. Paul Getty, one of the most successful investors of modern times.
What did Getty know about building wealth and investing for spectacular gains that his contemporaries didn't?

Several years before he died, Getty shared his "secret" in his autobiography...

He explained that whenever he made an investment, he tried to apply this simple principal: If you want to make money, really big money, do what nobody else is doing.

In Getty's own words, "Buy when everyone else is selling and hold until everyone else is buying."

This isn't merely a catchy slogan. It's the very essence of successful investing.

But as simple as it sounds, too many people do just the opposite. They buy high and sell low. They're trend followers. To put it more bluntly, they follow the crowd.

The successful investor is a trendsetter, not a trend follower. He gets in — and out — ahead of the crowd.

Now, the company I've been teasing this whole time clearly falls into all three categories:

1.) It's a junior miner — and trading just north of 70 cents, it's in the very middle of the pack. Not too small. And not too big (for now at least)...

2.) It boasts a highly-successful management team. A recent discovery reconfirmed what Greg already knew — that this team is a winner.

3.) It's a gold-miner — and as you know, the trend right now, despite all common sense, is to be bearish on gold. Your average investors are selling... That means those who will ultimately profit, are buying, now, and buying big.

In addition:
  • It's got a super-tight share structure, with just 39 million shares outstanding. This is music to an investor's ears, because sparse sharepools mean when the stock moves, it moves fast...
  • Almost 1/3 of this company's worth (over $8 million) is in cash — making this company not just well prepared for the next round of exploration, but its stock well rooted in liquid assets.
I am convinced that Greg's new discovery isn't just going to continue its recent gains, but actually accelerate as the Compound Gold sweet spot packs more gains onto this already chugging profit-machine.
