Dudley Baker

Dudley Pierce Baker is the owner/editor of Precious Metals Warrants. Dudley started this unique investment service in March 2005 and has a worldwide subscriber base providing complete details on all warrants trading on the natural resources shares as well as opening up his entire portfolio in his, “A Look Over My Shoulder”.

Dudley has been an investor for many years. With a major in Accounting he went to work for the Internal Revenue Service as an IRS Agent. The intent was to spend 5 years or so, learn as much as possible and then get ‘a real job’; but now looking back, this ‘early retirement’ has worked out great. ’Yes, many of you may not like this IRS thing, but, that was many years ago and he accepted an early retirement in 1996 at age 50 and 29 years of service.

Many of his years were as a ‘Revenue Agent – Team Coordinator’ heading up the audits of some of the largest corporations in the world, and going head to head with some of the big law firms in Washington and New York. Those years and experiences are but a distant memory and he currently does not represent any clients, nor in anyway offer tax advice. He comes from a numbers’ background and that is what should be important to you as a subscriber or potential subscriber to his service.

Dudley follows many of the top analysts and newsletter writers and resides in Ajijic, Mexico.

Jeff Berwick

A self-described financial freedom fighter, Jeff Berwick founded Canada’s largest financial website, Stockhouse.com, in 1994. The company expanded worldwide into 8 different countries and had a market capitalization of $240 million USD at the peak of the “tech bubble”. He was the CEO from 1994 until 2002 when he sold the company and still continued on as a director afterwards until 2007. Stockhouse.com was and still is used by nearly a million investors.

After selling Stockhouse, Berwick went forth to travel the world by sailboat but after one year of sailing his boat sank in a storm off the coast of El Salvador. After being saved clinging to his surfboard with nothing but a pair of surfing shorts left of his material possessions he decided to travel the world as spontaneously as possible with one overarching goal: See and understand the world with his own eyes, not through the lens of the media.

During this time he met and spoke with a plethora of amazing people, from self-made billionaires to some of the brightest minds in finance – as well as entrepreneurs running street noodle carts in Shanghai and Tacos Al Pastor stalls in the smallest of towns in Mexico. He also read everything he could find on how the world really works politically and financially – a pursuit he continues to this day.

He is now the founder and Chief Editor of The Dollar Vigilante, a free-market financial newsletter with its groundings in Austrian economics.

Alex Macdougall

Alex Macdougall a civil engineer, worked for an engineering subsidiary of a major Swiss bank during the 1960s. He became interested in the valuation s of currencies and their relationship to gold. The study of money led him to give up a successful engineering career and focus on the financing of gold and silver ventures. Since 1999, Alex has been a financial and communications consultant for several successful mining projects. His many dealings with all classes of investors during the last 10 years led him to the conclusion that there is a need for investors to understand the progression of inflations and its consequences. The parallels between what occurred in Germany between 1870 and 1925 and what is occurring in the US today are remarkable and disturbing. In Alex’ opinion, a full understanding of these past events is, essential to successful preservation of wealth today.

Keith Schaefer

Keith Schaefer is Editor and Publisher of the Oil & Gas Investments Bulletin. The Bulletin subscription service finds, researches, and profiles growing oil and gas companies that Mr. Schaefer buys himself, so Bulletin subscribers know he has his own money on the line.

Mr. Schaefer identifies oil and gas companies that have high growth rates, or have the potential for that – this usually means they have a large undeveloped land position in an area where either production costs are very low or production rates can be very high. They are covered by several research analysts, so there is research support and institutional money flow behind them.

There is tremendous potential to profit in oil and gas companies for informed investors. Technology has transformed exploration in both oil and natural gas in three short years. New plays in old locations are opening up huge profits for producers and their shareholders. And high-impact international plays are starting to benefit from these new technologies as well.

The Oil and Gas Investments Bulletin subscriber portfolio generated approximately 114% gains in 2009 and 74.5% in 2010.
