How an Unemployed Phoenix Man got the Gov't to pay for his Palm Beach Mansion...

A penthouse on the French Riviera...
And a multi-million dollar investment account
The amazing secret you can use – beginning today – revealed in the brief below...

Dear Reader,

I live and work in San Jose, Costa Rica. And I'm writing today to introduce you to one of the most unusual – and richest – men you will ever meet.
His name is Chris Weber. If you walked by him on the street, you would never guess he is a multi-millionaire...
You see, Chris is about average height, with dark-brown hair. He doesn't wear fancy clothes. And he spends more time in the library than boutiques or fancy restaurants.
Chris, in short, leads a very simple life. He reads more books in a year than I've read in my lifetime (and he's seen more movies than anyone I know).
His only "luxury" is travel. You see, Chris spends much of every year traveling the world. In the last year alone, he's spent time in Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, Korea, France, Andorra, Italy, England, Switzerland, Turkey, Greece, Nicaragua, and a high-speed boat trip to the island of Crete.
That may not seem unusual for a multi-millionaire...
But what is unusual about Chris Weber is this: He started his fortune at age 16 – with just $650 he saved from his paper route.
In fact, that paper route is the only "real job" he's ever had.
By the time I met Chris, in 1980, he was a 23-year-old millionaire. Since then, he's grown his wealth many, many times over...
So how, exactly, does an ordinary-looking guy from the suburbs of Phoenix build a multimillion dollar bank account – without a job, a business, an inheritance, or lottery winnings?
And how does he plan to add even more to his bank account this year?
That's the amazing secret I'm going to reveal in this letter...
And you'll also discover how I believe you can do the same, beginning right away...

How the rich get richer – thanks to the government
Most people think that the stock market is the best way to make a lot of money in America...
But the truth is, governments around the world – including the U.S. – will basically hand out huge sums of money... to those who are savvy enough to know about the right programs.
You see, Chris learned early on how the rich really get richer: That government self-interest creates the market's safest and most profitable opportunities.
At any given time, for example, governments around the world make economic moves for any number of reasons: To attract more money into their economies... to make their exports cheaper to buy... to prevent inflation... or simply boost their stock markets.
In other words, all you have to do is follow what governments do with their interest rates... with their currencies... and their economies...
And if you buy the right investment vehicle, you can make a lot of money, safely, almost every time you invest.
That's what Chris Weber has been doing for the past 35 years...
What's amazing to me is that Chris is willing to show you exactly how he does it.
You can do the exact same thing Chris is doing, at the exact same time... and on a percentage basis, make the exact same gains.
Let me show you an example of what I mean...
How a government-backed savings account can make you 1,700%
Chris discovered one super-safe government-backed investment idea in the 1970s, right after high school...
And he's been using it to grow his fortune every year since.
It is one of the simplest and safest ways you will ever see to make double-digit gains on your cash every year...
And it is literally as easy as opening a savings account.
Chris calls this strategy Max Yield. In his words:

"Max Yield can help you grow a $50,000 initial investment in cash into more than $220,000 almost 10 times faster than if you placed your capital into super-safe one year U.S CD (at today's rates).
"Best of all, this strategy has averaged a double-digit return on cash for 33 years, and it has done so with all of the safety and security of having your money in the bank."
That's right... no stocks, no mutual funds, no real estate – just bank savings accounts that pay you double-digit returns, year after year.
Here's how Chris' Max Yield strategy works:
Every year, on New Year's Day, Chris looks around at the world's major governments... and finds the one paying the highest interest rate on their currency. Then, through a simple bank savings account, he deposits money into that government's currency, for one year.
It may sound hard to believe that you can make so much money in a savings account...
But starting with just $10,000, Chris made 10% on his cash his first year using Max Yield.
By Year 2, he was up 32%...
By Year 5, Chris' initial $10,000 was up 94%... and a decade and a half later, the Max Yield strategy had made Chris 1,700% profits.
His original $10,000 was now worth more than $182,000 – all from keeping his money in the bank.
When you use Chris' Max Yield strategy, you can profit in two ways:

1. You earn far higher-than-U.S. savings interest rates...
2. When you convert your pounds, euros, francs, yen (or whatever currency you're in that year) back into American money, you will often find that you've made an additional 25% to 50%...

That's how, using the Max Yield strategy, Chris has made per-year gains of 32.3%... 31.3%... 29.6%... 27.8%... and 24%... all from a simple bank account.
The best part about this strategy?
No matter where you live – in the U.S. or abroad – you can use this strategy. And you can open a Max Yield savings account from anywhere in the world.
You don't need a lot of money to start using Max Yield, either... all you need to know is what currency to buy.
You'll see how easy it is to open a Max Yield savings account with a single phone call... and the currency Chris recommends you deposit your money in right now.
Of course, this isn't the only way Chris has made a fortune from government moves over the years...
So before I tell you how you can start a Max Yield savings account yourself, let me share another way Chris is taking advantage of interest rates in the U.S. right now...
It's one of the most profitable things you can do with your cash. And it's easy to do, too...
Don't worry – you don't need to know a thing about how interest rates work to make a lot of money here...
How to make 200% gains, without buying stocks

For the last 26 years, bonds around the world have been in a bull market... not just in the U.S.
The reason? When interest rates go down, bonds do extremely well.
Over the last two-and-a-half decades, that's exactly what's been happening...
For instance:


  • Chris saw a 200% return on the British government's high-yield bonds – in just two years time...

  • He saw a 100% return from New Zealand government bonds...

  • 54% from Germany's bond program...

  • 49% in Switzerland government bonds...

  • And he's made around 40% gains in Iceland bonds...


As Chris says:
"In my U.S. bonds, profits of 25%-50% were the usual... my overall profits must have been around 300%. Bonds have been the centerpiece of my portfolio for years. The interest they kept paying made it possible for me to have the freedom to make speculations in other things..."


But lately – after 26 years – the government interest rate picture has changed.
So Chris has taken a new approach... one that should be equally profitable.
By taking advantage of the new trend in government interest rates, you could make an easy 30% in just a years' time... and quite possibly double your money in the next few years.
How can you get in on it? Let me explain...

100% gains from rising rate opportunities

The unique investment Chris recommends you buy has started to move in the last few months, up 10%.
Not coincidentally, interest rates have started rising, as CBS MarketWatch recently noted:


"Don't look now – but a sleeping market giant is waking up and wreaking havoc. Traders are throwing in the towel on their long-held belief that the Fed will cut rates. Rising rates are serious stuff for investors..."


So right now isn't the time to buy bonds... or the majority of stocks.
Instead, Chris has found an investment – he calls it the New Rising Rate Opportunity – which can make you a lot of money when government interest rates rise.
But don't worry...
As I said, you don't need to understand how interest rates work – or how to predict what they're going to do next – to profit from this investment.
It's very simple: When U.S. interest rates rise, the New Rising Rate Opportunity does, too.
And you can get in on this simple investment with a single phone call to Ohio, where this investment originates.
If you get in now, you could make around 30% or more in a year... and if you let your money sit in this investment for just a few years – with the compounding interest you'll be making – you could see potential returns of 100% or more.
Taking advantage of the economic moves governments make – like interest rates – is why Chris has never needed a "real" job...
It's why today he's got millions safely compounding interest in the bank...
And how he can afford to live in a luxury penthouse on the French Riviera in Monaco, just steps away from the Mediterranean Sea.
It's actually very simple to profit from the moves governments make in their own self-interest, such as when interest rates rise... all you have to do is know where to stand to collect the money.
If you're interested, Chris will show you exactly how to do it...

7 Steps to Build Your Personalized Investment Plan

Selecting securities isn't the first thing investors do; choosing investments is just one of many elements in the process. To bulletproof your investing, you need to complete many tasks. The following checklist outlines how you can build a successful investment plan that meets your individual needs and goals:
#1 Determine where you stand. Gain a good understanding of what your financial commitments are now and in the future. Make certain that you have an emergency fund and a savings plan.
#2 Clearly state your financial goals. How much do you need? When do you need it? How much risk can you tolerate? If you lost the principal of an investment, could you mentally recover and invest again?
#3 Determine the appropriate allocation of your personal assets for your age (young adult, middle-aged, retiree, and so on). Develop a regular investing program and stick to it regardless of market volatility.
#4 Select the investments that meet your financial goals and risk-tolerance level. How much time do you have (in years) to invest? Should you be an active trader and invest often during the day or a passive investor with a buy-and-hold policy?
#5 Analyze your investment candidates. Before you call your online broker, make certain that you can tell a child in two minutes or less why you want to own a particular investment. Determine how long you plan to hold the security and decide at what price you will sell (and take your profits or cut your losses).
#6 Select an online broker that suits your needs. Avoid mutual fund loads (a sales charge added to the purchase or sale of a mutual fund) and high fees. Use automatic investment plans, dividend reinvestment programs, investment clubs, and other programs to reduce brokerage commissions.
#7 Monitor your portfolio and reevaluate your goals on a regular basis. Rank the performance of your investments and make the appropriate changes. You can expect that changes in general market conditions, new products that are introduced, and new technology will change how established businesses operate. Use this information to gain an understanding of when to hold and when to fold.
Just remember. Every successful investor starts with a financial plan. The plan includes clearly stating your financial objectives, saving a certain amount of money each month, developing investment asset allocation strategies, and so on.
Monitoring your portfolio in a volatile market is very important. You can select the best investments, but if you don't have a way to track your gains and losses, you can lose time and money.
Good record keeping is invaluable for calculating your taxes, preparing for retirement, estate planning, and taking advantage of opportunities to increase your personal wealth.
Sources on the Internet can assist you in keeping careful records of every stock, mutual fund, bond, and money market security that you own. Setup time can be as little as ten minutes. You can update and monitor your portfolio once a week or once a month.
Your investments can be in one portfolio (for example, your retirement fund) or many (say, your retirement fund, an emergency fund, and your children's college fund). You can also track investments that you wish you owned or that you're considering for investment.
