Due to the dumbing-down of Western civilization — facilitated by the elite control of government and public institutions — people have lost focus.

Collectively, we seem to have forgotten the track record of similar once-great civilizations.

More so than foreign enemies, it was often the country's very own government that eventually led to the demise of many great superpowers before us.

Was it not Augustus who became a Roman emperor by promising to solve the state's problems that were being swept under the rug, only to have the rug ripped completely out from under him in the end? Was it not immediately after he succeeded in giving people hope during dire straights that the infallible and sophisticated Roman Republic came crashing down?

It was an internal decay feeding off of the surplus of greed and opulence that ruined the Roman Empire.

Was it not an overwhelmingly charismatic and confident Hitler that led a globally esteemed, intelligent, refined, and disciplined Germany to an untimely collapse?

As strong as its people were, Germany's blind obedience led it to a dead end.

I'm not saying that having hope in one's leader should suggest the inevitable collapse of a society. All I'm saying is that history repeats itself, and I can't remember a more hopeful election in my lifetime than the U.S. election of 2008...

If you look at America today, how can you not fear for the death of another global superpower? Of course, our own charismatic and confident leader is playing on the ethos of our people by passionately addressing the wealth gap woes without the ability to really change anything.

After all, Obama is only symbolically in charge. It's the bankers that yield all the real power...

So if people don't truly hold power in their votes, wherein do we find power to change

As the World Economic Forum begins in Davos, Switzerland, Oxfam International has released a new report called, “Working for the Few,” that contains some startling statistics on what it calls the “growing tide of inequality.”

The report states:

• Almost half of the world’s wealth is now owned by just one percent of the population.
• The wealth of the one percent richest people in the world amounts to $110 trillion. That’s 65 times the total wealth of the bottom half of the world’s population.
• The bottom half of the world’s population owns the same as the richest 85 people in the world.
• Seven out of ten people live in countries where economic inequality has increased in the last 30 years.
• The richest one percent increased their share of income in 24 out of 26 countries for which we have data between 1980 and 2012.
• In the US, the wealthiest one percent captured 95 percent of post-financial crisis growth since 2009, while the bottom 90 percent became poorer.

Asserting that some economic inequality is necessary to foster growth, it also warns that extreme levels of wealth concentration “threaten to exclude hundreds of millions of people from realizing the benefits of their talents and hard work.”

Tables From Oxfam’s ‘Working For The Few’ Report

Additionally, the report says that high levels of wealth concentration can harm democracy and reduce equal opportunity, as the wealthy begin to have an undue influence on government policy making:

When wealth captures government policymaking, the rules bend to favor the rich, often to the detriment of everyone else.

Oxfam also conducted polls in six countries — Spain, Brazil, India, South Africa, the U.K. and the U.S. — showing that a majority of people believe “laws are skewed in favor of the rich” in areas ranging from financial deregulation, tax laws favoring the wealthy and facilitation tax evasion, austerity economics, policies that disproportionately harm women, and oil and mineral revenues.

The report states that the trend can be reversed, as it has at other times in history, such as in the U.S. and Europe after World War II and in Latin America in the last decade.

Oxfam calls on the leaders at the World Economic Forum to not dodge taxes in their countries or countries where they invest and operate, not use their economic wealth to seek political favors, and support progressive taxation on wealth and income, among other things.

It also quotes Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, who said, ‘We may have democracy, or we may have wealth concentrated in the hands of the few, but we cannot have both.’

The Power of Individual Choice and Action Dramatic societal shifts don't happen overnight. But you can't sit back and wait for things to happen; you have to make them happen. As Nick told you yesterday, no one is going to look out for you except YOU. Politicians don't really need you — they just need the big-money guys to fund their campaigns. Even the good ones who want to help you are usually bogged down just keeping the big-money-elites happy. That being said, you have to take a pro-active stance in protecting yourself and your loved ones, come hell or high water. As our fiat money system is on the verge of crumbling like Rome, investors have to think outside the box. The Insiders might have an upper hand, but you can hedge yourself accordingly. The Fed might be manipulating the market via interest rates while central banks around the globe are pumping trillions of dollars into a failing financial system. You may not be able to stop them, but you can one-up them. But you don't stand a chance if you don't know what's going on. Brace for Turbulent 2014 LIBOR and FOREX scandals, once written off as conspiracy theory, have been confirmed. News about precious metals manipulation schemes seem to be popping up everyday. How you react to this news could make all the difference... Now that the fundamentals have been stripped away from the market (well, technically they're still there — they just don't matter in light of all the manipulation), you can't simply rely on earnings and valuation to make a good judgment call. Earlier this week, I wrote to you about the emerging market crisis as a result of Fed tapering and soaring interest rates. All these weakened economies will remain under pressure. Finally, the world is seeing how little control central banks truly have in keeping currencies stable. Confidence is plummeting. People are freaking out. The economic storm that's brewing is on par with this week's Snowpocalypse. In times of panic, grocery stores sell out of the basics (bread, eggs, milk). In times of economic panic, the world will sell out of its basics too... Indeed, investors will be flocking back to the basics. They're going to go for the essentials: land, water, gold, silver — anything that has stood the test of time. Anything that makes sense in this nonsensical market. Advertisement Company Turns Water into Gas Since we can't control where the sun will shine or when the wind will blow, energy storage has long been renewables' Achilles heel. That is, up until now. This one small company has discovered a revolutionary solution... It's figured out a way to turn air, sunlight, and even water into cheap, easily stored energy. When mainstream investors hear about this incredible breakthrough, five-figure gains are not out of the question... Click here before you miss out on this historic opportunity. Gold is Officially on the Rebound And if you're skeptical about that, just take a look at gold prices in the aftermath of Janet Yellen's first report to Congress regarding monetary policy and emerging market struggles. Gold surged to a 3-month-high almost instantaneously. And the globe's biggest buyers are making waves in the market... Yesterday, Barron's reported that gold buying in China rose 41% last year to 1,176 tonnes (reaching a new record) due to fears of currency instability. But no one really knows exactly how much gold China has. All we know is that it is a lot. James Rickards, author of the New York Times bestseller Currency Wars, commented on the significance of this alarming trend in an interview with Forbes: "If you’re China, the last thing you want to do is be transparent about your gold purchases, because it will drive the price up," says Rickards.  He compared China’s strategy to a game of Texas hold 'em. "You want a big pile of chips. The U.S. has a big pile of chips, Europe has a big pile of chips. The U.S. has 8,000 tonnes of gold, 17 members of the euro system have 10,000 tonnes. China at 1,000 tonnes is not a player, but at 5,000 tonnes, they are a player." "But I have spoken to a number of sources in Asia," he says. "I've spoken to a number of people who are very close to the physical market, I've done my own investigations. Every time I have an estimate and try to verify it, what I get back is that I'm wrong on the low side." "That should be an earthquake because even the gold deniers, the gold doubters, are going to have to sit up and take notice. Either the Chinese are dopes, which they're not, or people will start to get gold, which I think they will." And you know what else China is buying up in bulk? Land. I spent last weekend in sunny Palm Springs at an investment conference, chatting with some of the world's most successful and influential investors. I also talked to three different luxury realtors. The common denominator among them? China.  All three harped on the unmistakable fact that the Chinese are quietly but swiftly scooping up massive amounts of property all around the world — from exotic luxury properties to real estate in the slums of Detroit. It sounds like they're on to something big... No matter what's going on in the market, people are always going to need food and shelter. There's scarcely a safer bet than land. And while I'd never tell you what to do, I think it's important to have a big-picture understanding of what's going on here. Things have been over-complicated in the market. And nothing is working to stabilize the dollar or other fiat currencies. Our financial world is in the midst of a major transformation; it's flipped on its head. And unless you're one of the 85 mentioned at the start of this piece, I suggest you carefully consider what this transformation will mean for you, your portfolio, your retirement, and — most importantly — your loved ones. Get off this merry-go-round to nowhere, and get back to the basics.

How Americans view wealth and inequality

Viewpoint by Dan Ariely Professor of behavioural economics, Duke University, USA

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-19284017

 

 

 

Americans do not understand how wealth is distributed in their society

• Inequality is 'top global risk'

There have been lots of questions and discussions recently about inequality and economists often argue about what is the right level of inequality to have in society.

But Mike Norton, professor at Harvard Business School, and I decided to take a different path and we decided to ask people what inequality they would want.

Now, there are lots of ways to ask this question and we used the philosopher John Rawls.

Rawls said that "a just society is a society that if you knew everything about it, you'd be willing to enter it in a random place". And it's really a beautiful definition.

He called it a veil of ignorance, because if you're very wealthy, you might want the wealthy people to have lots of money and the poor to have very little; and if you are very poor, you might want the poor to have more money and the wealthy to have less.

But in Rawls' definition, you don't know where you'll end up, you have to consider all the different options and therefore you have to think about what is good for society as a whole.

Incomprehension

So, we took the American society and we asked people to imagine it divided into five buckets, the wealthiest 20%, the next 20%, the next, the next and the poorest 20%.

First of all, we asked people: how much wealth do you think is concentrated in each of those buckets?

It turns out people get it very wrong.

Continue reading the main story

“Start Quote

Even Americans understand that inequality is not a good idea and principle”

The reality is that the bottom two buckets together, the bottom 40% of Americans, own 0.3% of the wealth; 0.3%, almost nothing, whereas the top 20% own about 84% of the wealth.

And people don't understand it. They don't understand how much wealth the top have and in particular, they don't understand how little the bottom has.

But then we described to people Rawls' definition, the veil of ignorance, and the idea they could end up anywhere. And we said: What society would you like to create? How much wealth? How would you like to distribute the wealth?

And it turns out people created a society that is much more equal than any society on Earth. It was much more equal than Sweden.

Blind tasting

In fact, when we did this experiment another way and we showed people two distributions of wealth, one based on the wealth distribution in the US and the other based on the wealth distribution that is more equal than Sweden, 92% of Americans picked the improved Swedish distribution.

So this suggests to me that when people take a step away from their own position and their own current state, and when people look at society in general terms, in abstract terms, Americans want a much more equal society. 

 

How would you judge a wine if you didn't know where it came from or how much it cost?

There is one more interesting thing to this: 93% of Democrats picked the improved Swedish model, compared with 90.5% of Republicans. Different, but not very different.

And all this makes me wonder, how can it be that in our studies people seem to want such equal society but when you look at the political ideology, people don't seem to want that?

And I think it is a little bit like blind tasting of wine.

When you taste wine and you know the label and you know the price, you are going to be influenced by that. And when you are tasting wine in a blind way, now you don't have anything to base it on and you have to really use your senses.

I think the same thing happens with thoughts about just societies. When we are in the regular world, we are using our current position, our ideology and the labels that politicians give us, and they obscure reality and obscure what we really want.

But Rawls' definition really lets us strip all this away, lets us focus on what is really important and how people actually want something very different from what we have.

The question, of course, is how do we get people to think about this to a higher degree and how do we get them to act on that for a better future?

Amazing Free Report:
Breakthrough technology turns
air, sunlight, coal, even water
into precious gas

Dear Reader,
http://www.angelnexus.com/o/web/55727?r=1

The video you are about to see is a stunning look into the future of where we will all get our energy.

It features a little-known company I've been following for many years... and I want to tell you about it right now because of some revolutionary accomplishments the company recently achieved.

In short, the company was able to convert air into gas.

That's right... the same air you and I breathe.

This company was able to turn it into gas and transport it through a natural gas pipeline.

This gas can be used to turn on your lights and heat your home, among countless other things.

I know... It sounds unbelievable, right?

Well, it's true, as you'll see in the presentation you're about to watch.

You see, this company has been working on this breakthrough for many years.

It has patented (145 patents and patent applications in all) and perfected the technology.

And when all is said and done, it can supply all of the energy America could possibly want for just $0.02 a kilowatt hour. That's the equivalent of filling up your car for just $0.57 a gallon.

It works by converting air, sunlight, coal, and even water into gas.

It's clean, cheap, and abundant.

You can even transport this gas right through existing natural gas pipelines — so there's no extra infrastructure costs to move it, because the pipelines already exist.

And get this: Since air, sunlight, coal, and water are essentially limitless in supply, this energy will never run out... ever.

As I alluded to earlier, this isn't pie-in-the-sky stuff. This company's technology is being deployed and adopted all over the world as you read this.

In fact, you can find their technology in over 100 countries worldwide.

Their annual revenue has jumped to $40 million from $19 million in 2009.

And they have a backlog (sales for this company's technology that's already been booked) of over $53 million.

And the orders keep pouring in from across the globe...

The most recent customer to adopt their technology was the nation of Germany. Germany is the sixth largest energy consumer in the world. They licensed this company's technology to build a two-megawatt power plant facility in Falkenhagen. Two megawatts can power more than 2,000 homes.

The power plant went live this past August. For Germany, this is just the beginning of a major rollout of this company's power generation technology. And Germany is just one of many customers...

Enbridge — a $33 billion company that owns and operates the longest oil and gas pipeline systems in the world — invested millions into this company last year. In return for millions invested, they now own 13% of what I think is about to become an energy giant.

Enbridge's investment could eventually be worth billions in the years to come. And more importantly, they'll own a piece of what could be one of the greatest energy breakthroughs in decades.

Enbridge will also develop the same gas power plant systems in North America as were built in Germany.

Another "big name" investor in this company is General Motors (GM).

GM — the second largest automobile manufacturer in the world with annual sales of $152 billion — owns a 5% stake. Like Enbridge, GM knows that the millions of dollars it has invested in this company could return hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars in the years to come...

I mean, think about it...

A technology that can convert air, sunlight, coal and even water into gas is the equivalent of a cure for cancer!

What's that worth?

A lot. Maybe the biggest windfall ever.

But here's the deal for you and me...

Germany, Enbridge, GM, and countless other companies are just now implementing this company's revolutionary energy technology.

That's why the company's stock is up about 100% in a year.

However, it still trades for less than $19 a share... and has a total market valuation of less than $250 million!

Now, I can assure you that as positive results come back from Germany's power plant, big investors like Enbridge and GM are going to be buying big blocks of this company's stock — squeezing out individual investors like you and me.

That's why I want you to buy the stock right now.

In a minute, I'll show you how. Plus I'm going to explain to you in detail how this company's technology works, and how it's a tectonic shift for industries like renewable energy, transportation, and fossil fuels.

On top of this, this company has its hands on the golden chalice of the energy market...

It has found a way to store energy!

Before we get into the meat of this presentation, let me introduce myself...

Hello, my name is Christian DeHaemer.

I've been in the markets for over 15 years. In that time, I've traveled all over the world, personally doing boots-on-the-ground research into some of the largest discoveries in the world.

In the past 15 years, my passport has gotten quite a workout. It's beaten and weatherworn. But it's been the key to accessing the most secretive people with the best investing information on the planet...

Whether it's the foothills of South Dakota or the far reaches of Mongolia, my research has yielded one thing and one thing only: massive winners.

Take a look...

• 759% on Petro Matad

• 351% on Entree Gold

• 162% on Markland Technologies

• 256% on Allied Nevada Gold

• 235% on Fieldpoint Petroleum

• 131% on Richmont Mines

• 515% on Palm Resources

• 268% on China Yuchai

• 243% on Cemex

• 251% on Unilife

And that's only a small sample of the little-known opportunities I've unearthed.

But this new development will eclipse them all.

Years from now, this new technology I'll introduce you to today will be as important as the dawn of the petroleum age...

It will be the biggest innovation since Colonel Edwin L. Drake invented the modern oil drill 143 years ago.

You see, this revolution — this "mega shift" I'm going to reveal today — is in energy.

In my 15 years as an analyst, I've never seen anything like it.

Not only is this technology going to create a tectonic shift in society, but it will also give early-bird investors the chance to net huge gains.

How would you like to be one of the first people to put your money on a history-making company?

Just looking back, I'd put my neck on the line to say this company's stock could easily soar 1,159% — paying you $115.90 for every $10.

And that's just in the early innings. Once it picks up steam, it will build momentum like a freight train...

Gains as high as 10,000% are not out of the question.

You'll see why shortly.

But let's be clear on one thing: This technology has nothing to do with drilling.

In fact, it could very well send many oil well operators to the poor house once it spreads across the map.

You see, this company has done something bigger — something impossible.

They've basically made Obama's wet dream come true... but without a penny of help from him or the U.S. government.

In one fell swoop, this company made renewable energy a potential world dominator.

The Missing Link

Renewables have had a bum rap for years.

But there's one reason for that, one "fly in the ointment" that has held renewables back.

The one problem that has kept energy sources like wind and solar in the "kid's playground."

That problem is storage.

John R. Luoma, who has written books and articles on the subject of sustainable green energy, called this "the stumbling block for making renewable energy practical and dependable."

The battle has been to find a means to salvage energy generated by the wind turbines and solar panels to use at a later time...

What happens now is that the wind turbines start spinning when there's wind, thus generating electricity.

But that's the issue: The turbines are spinning when they're not needed — and then not budging at all when they're needed most!

So at 5:30 p.m., when the family is home, watching television, eating dinner... we can't get a lick of wind to get the stove working. But at 4:00 a.m., when everyone's asleep, there might be enough wind to power all of Chicago.

So the dilemma has been to find a way to store the energy from the off-peak hours — those times when the turbines are generating more electricity than we need.

However, there was never a storage solution that was...

• Easily scalable (meaning it could be practically used almost anywhere);

• Able to return an ample amount of energy for the amount of energy spent storing; and

• Cheap enough to set up and put into use without costing multiple billions

Right now, the most common form of energy storage is pumped storage hydro-electricity. This is basically using electricity generated by wind and solar to pump water uphill. If the grid needs energy, the water is released immediately back downhill through turbines, which then produce electricity.

The Electric Power Research Institute reports that pumped-hydro accounts for 99% of energy storage worldwide.

And while overall pretty cheap, it suffers one big problem: scalability.

For pumped hydro to work, it needs a specific geographic location.

Here's a picture of a pumped-hydro facility so you can get a better idea:

I'll tell you about some other examples shortly... and how they made investors fortunes.
And then I'll show you how, because none of the companies had a real solution... investors had to give it all back. 
But this company figured it out.
Let me show you...
As you can see by this graph, there is a surplus of wasted energy from wind turbines and solar. This is essentially "free energy" that goes to waste during off hours.

If you could find a way to store this energy and use it later, you could write your own ticket.

Now, one company has found a solution to the energy storage problem using hydrogen electrolyzers, which use wasted energy to turn water into hydrogen. The hydrogen will hold BTUs indefinitely and can be shipped through natural gas pipelines.

The Trend is Your Friend

But here's extra fuel for the fire...
There has never been a better time for a company to develop this technology.

Right now, governments everywhere are trying to race ahead and make renewables a staple of their energy diets... with scares regarding nuclear... the rising cost of oil, only worsened by the turmoil in the Middle East... and a crowding shift to low-emission, environmentally-friendly energy... everyone wants to build up their renewable energy sector.

It has already propelled the energy storage market to over $40 billion in size.

Let's just take a look at the United States, for starters: Right now, 29 of the 50 states have renewable energy mandates — meaning they have to produce a certain amount of energy via renewable resources by a certain year.

An additional seven states have "goals," but not official mandates.

The fact is 18 of these 36 states are not on track to meet the mandates or goals... and worse, it's proving to be a financial calamity.

A study by the Institute For Energy Research shows states with renewable energy mandates have electricity costs as much as 40% higher than non-mandated states.

Why? Because without a viable form of storage, this renewables business is just going to cost money out the wazoo...

It's expensive to build dozens of wind farms and solar panel fields, and then reduce usage of fossil fuels without a net increase in wind or solar to support it.

And remember, none of the storage mediums have worked before.

Beacon Power went under because they just couldn't perform their job affordably.

But governments are still diving in. In one year, global investments into renewable energy hit $263 billion... with estimates expecting it to go even higher.

Bloomberg pegs the eventual value of the market could soar to over $7 trillion!

The effects are popping up everywhere...

For example, two-thirds of the world's total solar power capacity was installed over the last two and a half years. And installations of new solar technology are expected to double again over the next two years!

Greenpeace's Global Wind & Energy Outlook shows wind energy has grown at an average of 28% a year for 15 years.

Here's my point: If a company finds a solution... a cheap, scalable, efficient solution... nations will fill the company's coffers to the brim.

They can send the share price to the stratosphere overnight.

Now, just picture in your mind how it's going to look when the company I've unearthed gets center stage in the battle...

What happens when they carve out even one-tenth of a percent of that $7 trillion jackpot?

That's $7 billion for commanding even the tiniest fraction of the industry.

If some of these stocks have shot up 670%... 1,159%... even 12,000% and beyond based on hype... what will it look like when a company with a REAL solution hits the scene?

In good conscience, I can't say this stock will go as high as 10,000%.

But to me, there's no question that 1,500% is in the bag — enough for you to easily snowball every $10,000 into $150,000. And you can feel confident in that.

The "smart money" is already piling in... Goldman Sachs, Barclays, and Vanguard have all built up solid positions.

So before I tell you the ticker symbol, let me give you a brief rundown of how this company's technology works...

The Silver Bullet

On June 14, 2013, E. ON Energy — one of the largest electric utility companies in the world — made the proverbial shot across the bow to Big Oil.

At this demonstration they revealed an earthshaking development: the end result of a project they began more than a year ago.

More importantly, it was the first real-world demonstration of the next era of energy, all thanks to a technology more than 213 years old.

In some ways, it's similar to the recent U.S. boom in fracking...

Hydraulic fracturing was first invented in 1947; however, recent advances in this technology have helped the world enjoy a sudden surge in oil supply.

Above all, the companies that use fracking to extract more oil have made investors fortunes. Drillers like Kodiak Oil & Gas would've given your portfolio a 3,259% shot in the arm — enough to transform every $10,000 in $325,900.

Now this 213-year-old technology is going to line up another massive opportunity...

Even if you only grab gains half as good as Kodiak's bull run, you stand to make a fortune.

This centuries-old technology is called electrolysis.

It was discovered more than 200 years ago by a surgeon named Anthony Carlisle and a scientist named William Nicholson.

Electrolysis is the process of using electricity to "slice" water molecules, separating hydrogen and oxygen.

 

Hydrogen can be easily used as fuel. In fact, NASA has been using it for years to propel rockets into space.

Better yet, it's abundant. It's the most plentiful element in the universe.

You might be familiar with hydrogen. People have been trying unsuccessfully for a decade now to get hydrogen fuel cells to replace the combustible engine. Cost and safety fears have made that unlikely.

But hydrogen is making a powerful comeback...

What the company has done is hooked up a massive set of electrolyzers to wind turbines. When the wind turbine is generating electricity during those off-peak hours, the power is run to the electrolyzers, which then take simple water and separate the hydrogen and oxygen.

E.ON's station in Falkenhagen, Germany, is now the largest energy facility of its kind in the world.

This is the first "trial" facility E.ON had the company build. At the moment, it can generate storage for 1 MW of electricity...

They can quickly build this up to hundreds or thousands of megawatts through their award-winning polymer electrolyte membrane design.

The PEM is what basically creates the separation of hydrogen and oxygen — and this company is recognized as building the largest, most compact PEM electrolyzer ever.

Competitors need as many as 15 electrolyzers just to generate the same 1 MW!

They've already signed the company for more of these stations in Germany, with one in Hamburg.

Each of them will have the ability to scale up energy generation until they can produce and store thousands of megawatts.

But here's the best part — the reason this company has just hit the turning point in renewables...

They injected that gas directly into the country's natural gas pipeline system.

Think about that. They can store huge amounts of hydrogen in the pipeline system... for months at a time... and then transport it anywhere throughout the country for immediate conversion back into electricity!

The Pipelines

We're not talking "potentialities" here...

They've already tested and proven this technology works.

Each of them with the ability to scale up energy generation until they can produce and store thousands of megawatts.

Their system efficiently utilizes excess wind and solar energy to power the electrolyzers, which then separate the hydrogen from water, and feed it into the natural gas system that weaves throughout the entire country.

Let me put that in perspective for you...

Back in 2008, when billionaire oil and gas tycoon T. Boone Pickens plunked down $80 million to build the world's largest wind farm in Pampa, Texas, he ran into one serious barrier: a lack of transmission lines.

He couldn't even get the energy from the wind farms to the city.

But if he had used this same technology — to turn water into hydrogen and then distribute it through the natural gas pipeline system — the project would've been a massive success.

With the hydrogen flowing through the pipelines, and converted back into electricity wherever it was needed, Pickens would've probably changed the trajectory of the world's energy.

That's why Enbridge — the company that operates the world's largest crude oil and gas transportation system — has just personally invested $5 million in this company's development. They're now working together to build a commercial scale storage facility for the hydrogen generated by the company's electrolyzers, and then transporting them to wherever they're needed through the pipeline network...

No more storage problems; and no more difficulties in getting people readily available energy...

We can actually store the wind and solar energy, whenever it's generated.

We can store that energy for months at a time in the pipeline network.

We can move that compact hydrogen gas anywhere it's needed to generate more electricity at any time.

And it's all renewable.

Homes can be heated. Factories can be run.

Everything we thought renewables could never do has just become a shocking possibility...

Unlimited Natural Gas

There's no question you've heard about how popular natural gas has gotten lately.

Warren Buffett himself famously plunked down $2 billion on a natural gas bet.

Now the world is looking to revolutionize the transportation system with natural gas...

GE and Caterpillar are both investing in building trains powered purely on natural gas.

Car manufacturers are developing natural gas-powered cars: Honda already launched a version of the Civic powered on natural gas. And Ford recently announced plans to sell a natural gas run F-150. Cars are being built with utilities designed specifically to use natural gas as fuel.

Buffett has already invested in natural gas powered transportation systems.

Obama also announced a plan to invest $2 billion in getting cars off oil and into lower emission fuels, like natural gas.

As one of the most abundant, cleanest materials in the world, natural gas will play a major role in the economic landscape for years to come — which is another reason this company's innovation is so exciting...

They're about to ride the wave of natural gas, without drilling or owning any wells.

By a process known as methanization, the hydrogen produced by the electrolyzers will be mixed with biogas, also a renewable resource.

Together, these two gases form what's called synthetic natural gas. And it can be used interchangeably with natural gas.

As the expansion continues in the world of natural gas, creating new cars, trucks, boats, planes, trains, and more that run on natural gas... this company's technology will be the only sufficient alternative.

That synthetic natural gas will flow freely through the pipeline system, just like hydrogen.

Plus, the CEO of the company spearheading this technology worked as a senior executive at Toyota. He is an insider — and he knows how to work with these car companies to grease the wheels and make sure they can push his company to the forefront.

The Game-Changer

Look, in my opinion, there's no question this company is on the cusp of becoming an absolute superpower in the energy world.

Its stock will go gangbusters once people begin realizing its full potential.

And again, that's already happening... In fact, the stock has popped 54% on just a few passing mentions.

All it takes is one good piece of coverage, and this stock's going to hit the ceiling.

What about when this company — with a real, scalable solution — starts popping up in utility and power plants around the world?

What about when the media learns about everything I've told you today — that this company presents a 100% renewable, unlimited, easily transportable energy source that can last us for thousands of years?

1,000% is a drop in the ocean.

Once it picks up steam, there's no telling how far it could go...

I've shown you that historically these stocks have made astronomical leaps of 670%, 1,159%, even 12,000% gains.

Conservatively, I think this stock will finally plateau after it has handed you nothing short of $15 for every $1 invested.

And considering this company is the pioneer of this technology, I truly believe this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

I want to make sure you can get in on this ASAP. That's why I've put together a report with full details about this company...

It's called "How to Make 10 Times Your Money on the Energy Mega-Shift."

In it, I reveal the company that's just hit the mother lode — and busted open the gates for the next era of energy.

You'll see how much revenue they're already looking to add in the next few years... how many shares to buy... what price to buy them at... and more...

But here's the best part: I want to send you this report at no charge, immediately.

You'll be able to take action on this investment within the next five minutes.

Your Guide to Big Gains

You see, I gathered all these details on this stock for a reason...

It wasn't to put this presentation together.

No. It's because I currently manage an investment advisory service called Crisis and Opportunity.

You see, my readers depend on me to do this type of "heavy lifting": to pinpoint investments with the meatiest moneymaking potential. They were the first ones I went to and provided a complete rundown of this special situation to.

But it goes one step further...

I'm constantly on the prowl for companies that can deliver profits hand over fist. That's why, every month, I study dozens of stocks. I evaluate price charts with a series of technical indicators, study their valuations, read their earnings reports... and I put every single stock I come across through the ringer.

Once I'm sure it's a slam dunk, I write up a detailed "action alert" that gets broadcasted to my very exclusive circulation list of Crisis and Opportunity.

Not to toot my own horn, but the folks who have jumped on my research in the past have made a killing... like the 759% gain on Petro Matad I handed my readers in the past. That would mean every $1 would come back dressed as $8.59.

Right now, my readers are sitting on a gain of 233%, thanks to Sharyn Gol JSC. That's enough to put a profit of $11,650 for every $5,000 you invested.

Over my career, I've nailed tons of triple-digit plays...

• 351% on Entree Gold

• 162% on Markland Technologies

• 256% on Allied Nevada Gold

• 235% on Fieldpoint Petroleum

• 131% on Richmont Mines

• 515% on Palm Resources

• 268% on China Yuchai

• 243% on Cemex

• 251% on Unilife

It's my pursuit of these plays that lead me to discover the company we've talked about today.

It's also the reason I want to send you a copy of my report, "How to Make 10 Times Your Money on the Energy Mega-Shift" — free of charge.

All you need to do in order to receive this report immediately and at no cost to you is agree to start a 30-day risk-free trial of Crisis and Opportunity...

Once your trial begins, you'll get this report delivered into your inbox straight away.

In addition, you'll receive confidential details to access my archive of alerts, where I've stored every single investment I've recommended since I started Crisis and Opportunity.

After you've logged into the members-only website, you'll get to examine everything at no-risk to you for the next 30 days.

That's a whole month to paper trade a few of my recommendations... study my style... and determine if my approach makes sense to you.

Personally, I think you'll be thrilled with this once you get a look at everything my research has to offer...

Just consider what one happy reader had to say about me:

Before I show you how to get started, I need to come clean: The truth is, Crisis and Opportunity really may not be the best advisory for you...

Going Worldwide for Profits

In my opinion, if you want to make uncommon profits, you've got to approach the market in an uncommon way.

That makes sense, right?

You can't just do what everyone else is doing. If I was following the investment herd, I'd never have found this potential blockbuster we've talked about today...

I might never have nailed that 759% grand-slam on Petro Matad.

I probably would've missed the boat on the 268% China Yuachi threw off.

The key to making this type of big money is looking at the market differently...

My job is to find my readers — like you — the big winners.

If you wanted to eke out a measly 2% gain per year, you'd just throw all your money at a mutual fund or some sort of general market fund.

The problem, in my opinion, is that too many "analysts" are content to rest on their laurels. As a result, you usually end up getting the raw end of the deal — while they collect massive fees and compensation.

That's not how I operate.

I look at places most people ignore. I travel around the world to get an in-the-trenches look at what's going on.

And if I find a major trend, I try to hitch my wagon to it in a way that will make the most amount of money... in the least expected way.

I want to send you the comprehensive report on this water-purification technology and the company behind it — as well as my hot-off-the-presses "How to Make 10 Times Your Money on the Energy Mega-Shift" — free today, when you sign on for a 30-day trial of Crisis and Opportunity.

You'll hit the ground running as one of my readers...

You'll get an immediate insight into just how much money you can make.

But don't take my word on how my investments have performed in the past...

Here's what a few very happy readers had to say:

I want you to join these folks today... to go for a 233% gain like they have right now on Sharyn... a 566% boon you could make on this fracking cleanup stock... or even the 1,159% gain and beyond you could snap up on the powerhouse energy revolutionary I've briefed you on today.

All you have to do is agree to a risk-free 30-day trial of Crisis and Opportunity. Let me tell you how to do that now.

Everything You Get Today...

To agree to your 30-day risk free trial, all you have to do is click the "Start My Trial Now!" button below.

An email will hit your inbox in moments with login details, so you can dive into the reports I've told you about... look over my investment archive, and start enjoying the benefits of your trial. In short, you'll immediately have access to everything my readers have been using to profit for years.

And if you decide to stay with me after the trial?

Here's everything you can expect...

• 12-24 Flash Alerts with red-hot investments: You'll get anywhere from one to two brand-new investment recommendations every single month. My Flash Alerts are where I detail the stocks I've come across, like the company I told you about today. They provide you with an immediate breakdown of my findings. I tell you what price to buy at and what kind of profit to expect. And I don't leave you high and dry afterward...
  
  These are my fully-vetted recommendations: stocks I believe have triple-digit profit potential. I'm talking about shares that could double... triple... even quadruple your money or better, just like Petro Matad handed readers $7,590 for every $1,000 invested, or Fieldpoint Petroleum could have turned every $1 into $3.35.

• Weekly Position Monitoring: Each week, I'll send out an email with updates on how our model portfolio is performing. If a stock doesn't go the way we expect, I'll tell you why. I'll give you feedback on the economic situation... or it might just be a quick notice to close out a position and crack open a bottle of champagne to celebrate our latest gains... Either way, you'll have constant feedback from me to keep you up to speed on everything.

• Exclusive Members-Only Website Access: You'll also get access to my Crisis and Opportunity members-only website. Here, I'll post each of my email alerts so you can log in and review them.

And let's not forget... your free copy of my research report:

• Research Report #1: "How to Make 10 Times Your Money on the Energy Mega-Shift"
  This may very well go down as one of the best reports I'll ever write. The company revealed here is going to permanently change the global energy landscape... and if my research is correct, it could easily turn every $10,000 you invest into $150,000 within the next 12 months.

PLUS I'll throw in two more reports FREE as a special bonus when you start your 30-day trial today...

• BONUS Research Report #2: "Profiting Big from the HR1380 Transportation Transformation"
  This report reveals the very best ways to bank triple-digit gains on the United States' rush to use massive natural gas reserves to replace the need for diesel fuel... and it's all because of fracking.

• BONUS Research Report #3: "Gas Transport Riches: How to Bank Big Gains in the Global Gas Grab"
  I've been watching this stock for a while, but the timing just hasn't been right... but now things are heating up — and the time has come to get in!

Each of these reports is all-encompassing. Each gives you complete details on the circumstances that make these stocks a great buy... why these companies are poised to take off and deliver investors the biggest returns... and exactly what price you should buy in at for the biggest gains.

I'll also touch up these investments and give feedback on any critical developments.

Can You Afford a Snickers Bar?

Normally, a 30-day trial to this advisory and staking your claim to all of these benefits I've outlined for you today would run about $2,000.

I think you'll agree that's fair. You'd be hard-pressed to find a mutual fund that has ever had a stock shoot up 759% and remain affordable to the average investor. And as you've seen, my readers have made more than enough money to make up that investment.

However, I'm not going to ask you to trust me with $2,000 today.

I'm not even going to ask you for $1,500... or $1,000...

Instead, you can start your 30-day trial today for only $499.

That's a savings of $1,501 when you agree to this trial today.

If you can afford to pick up a Snickers bar to enjoy after lunch every day, you can afford this research.

And of course, that $499 is locked up and set aside for you.

You can end your trial at any point during the next 30 days... keep everything I've shown you... and get an immediate refund of your $499.

It's that simple.

You really have no obligation... no risk... only potentially massive rewards...

Claim Your Spot Now

Tell me, do you want to be the person who passed up a $150,000 windfall out of the fear of investing $499 in your financial future?

Especially when that $499 is only to claim a 30-day risk-free trial?

Remember everything you get today:

• My special investment alerts — As many as 12 to 24 a year laying out my latest profit-seeking recommendation

• Exclusive access to my member's only website where you can log in at any time to read reports, look through the archive of investment recommendations, and more...

You get all of this when you start your 30-day risk-free trial to Crisis and Opportunity today.

You get access to research that has showed investors who acted on my recommendations gains of 759%... 351%... 515%... and 243%.

You get a dramatic savings of $1,501 off your membership today, bringing your total investment in this advisory to $499.

Again, that's about the price of eating one Snickers bar a day (without the long-term health risks!).

And again, that $499 is kept under lock and key during your 30-day risk free trial.
