What if you can no longer afford their services?
These things can happen. And if they did, what would you do?
Money make fools out of those who are un-informed and misinformed!
There’s a saying in the stock market, “Too much of a lie, becomes the truth!”
They pay for the information that will eventually make them millionaires.
If you can analyze and interpret information, you can save the hassle and

2. Make mistakes.
In other words – lose money. Losing money is part of the stock market.
I’ve lost 20% (at most) of my initial capital in the process. Even the best
mentors out there will still, at one point, recommend you to sell at a loss!
Don’t be afraid to lose money! Everyone in the stock market will lose money,
but not everyone will gain it! Learn from it instead. Your fear of losing money
will only keep mentors employed.
Today, I’m happy to report that I’m no longer following their list of SAM
stocks, neither their recommendations.
Once I learn their bear market strategy, them it’s time to call it quits.
Do what I did – Hire them, learn from them, then unsubscribe!

Once, I received a newsletter from Truly Rich Club with this subject:
“Don’t buy then hold.” But I tell you, there was a time when I gained
133% in just one year with the buy-hold strategy!
If you know that something will make you gain more than the SAM
strategy, why not go for it?
I could go on with all the rules that I break, but I know you already get the
idea, right?
With everything that I said, here are the main points that you should bear in mind:
Before anything else, During a bull market, it’s not hard to earn money. You can
just invest them in, sleep it off, then watch it grow over time.
But having a trading guide can capitalize on the short to medium term earnings in a
bull market.
The buy-below-price, you can set on your own depending on the upside that you
want. In my case, my buy-below-price is 85% of the target price, so that I’ll have
an upside of 15%.
Mathematically:
Sell if current price hits (or go very near) the target price.
For truly rich club members, you may notice that is similar (if not the same) as the
SAM strategy. Yes, you’re correct! But there are also differences:
First off, SAM and I follow a different buy-below-price. Mine is lower than SAM’s.
Second, I follow a different set of giant companies. I’ll explain further in a bit.
Lastly, and most importantly, I don’t follow their rules (as mentioned earlier).
Giants are not created equal.
I mentioned earlier that I follow a different set of companies. Also, I don’t spread
my capital evenly, and I don’t diversify too much!
Why are they my favorites? Because they’re the giants among giants! They require
less work (monitoring) on my part. These are the giants who just breezed the bear
markets like a hot knife cut through butter!
They are also the giants that are not much affected by changes. Example: They’re
not affected by sin tax laws. These are also companies that will still earn lots of
money even if they don’t spend too much capital! And if worst comes to worst and
they don’t earn a single penny, their assets are more than enough to pay their
debt.
These companies are good for all short, medium, long and very long-term
investors!
As long as the current price from this group is below my buy-below-price, I stick
with these companies. If I cannot buy all 5 anymore, that’s the only time I’ll
consider the “other” giants.
How did the Truly Rich Club come up with its target price?
This only applies to COL Financial members. The target price is the Fair Value (FV)
Estimate in the Fundamental Research Guide.
Now that you know how to get the target price, you can now compute for your buy-
below-price.
And my level of greed is an 85% ratio. I have a friend who’s greedier than me – he
wants 80%. How about you? What’s your level of greed?
Now, you have a target price and BBP. The only thing left is what stocks to buy.
On diversification.
Imagine this: You just opened your stock account, and you probably only have
5,000 to start with. Because you only have a small amount, it will be wise if you
spend it in just one company. So what do you do? Pick the best of best giant out
there.
If you already know who’s the best, what difference does it make if you have 25K
or 100K or 1M?
Why would you invest in other companies, if you know you can earn more with the
other?! Again, the key here is information.
Be intelligent investors!
Bill gates did it with one company. Warrean Buffett did it with just 5!! You only
have to make a few right decisions to be rich! (taken from The Tao of Warren
Buffett).
What’s next?
Intelligent investors only need two things to be rich: The right information, and the
right companies.
