Too Many Offerings but Some Work.

Like:
I have the Altucher True Alpha and Network subscriptiions starting in March of 2024. Most of the recomendations are winners. I paid for my subscriptions in the first year with a slight bump in my portfolio.

Don't like:
Way too many high cost marketing events for investment tips.
They oversell and are wrong on a few very important catalysts for some investments.
You have to be very careful on the amount you invest because they are wrong sometimes and that one bet you believe will get the catalyst and it doesn't, can wipe out all your profits from their alerts.. Happened to me so today, I only bet conservatively with their alerts.

Invested in Jim Rickards and James…

Invested in Jim Rickards and James Altucher - recouped my money within few months. Ebeyta gives sound recommendations also. My only regret is the constant dangling of another carrot at 2k a pop. There are ways to consolidate and get all their services at one larger outlay of money though so think of choosing that.

I signed up for The Map and don’t waste your time or money. it’s 40% propaganda sent to your inbox, 40% of them asking to you purchase new services for better information behind another paywall, and maybe 20% of what you actually sign up for. Not to mention the short SPY callout in June where it’s up 12% since then.

Watched a video in which Mr Richards spoke about Trumps 150 trillion mining play

Watched a video in which Mr. Richards extolled the possibility of Trumps 150 trillion move to energy independence dominance and three companies well positioned to make impressive gains in the near future. He spoke about all minerals including rare earth, aluminum, lithium including, of course, oil. He was very clear that time was of the essence as Trump would, within a matter of days, make certain moves to open federal lands for both on shore and off shore mining opportunities. It one waited, you would miss the boat. After throwing away my money, I received the much ballyhooed information. Nothing about Trumps 150 trillion intentions, nothing about any impending opportunities. To the contrary, we were told that their recommendations were buy and hold for the long term and they would not be updated on a regular basis. What a bunch of scam artists/liars. They even tried to get idiots like me to double my investment for a lifetime membership. Thank God, I declined.

Hi Lawrence,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’d like to clarify a few points regarding your experience.

Your subscription came with a 6-month full money-back guarantee, so if you were unhappy with the service, you could have received a full refund — no questions asked.

While no one can predict exactly how events will unfold in the market, Jim Rickards has a long track record of making accurate calls in both politics and investing. In fact, the rare earth and mining sectors have seen significant gains over the past few months, suggesting that Jim’s insights were on target.

We also show that your subscription is still active. If you would like to cancel, please contact our Customer Service team at 844-731-0984 (U.S.) or +1-443-353-4212 (International), and they’ll be happy to assist you.

Kind regards,

We are a relatively small, completely independent publisher, which means we are not funded by deep-pocketed Wall Street firms pushing their preferred narratives. This independence allows us to share honest analysis and insights, but it also means we need to advertise our services to keep the business running.

Very Satisfied Customer

I am a VERY SMALL investor that started with Jim Rickards early April 2025 (It’s now mid June 2025) with his stocks picks (all in the green except for 2 which are less than 5% in the red) and 4 options I have turned $8,000 into $13,000+ in 2.5 months with the biggest gain in 1 option trade turning a $440 investment into a $959 gain in under 36 hours! Had I been able to close that option after 4 pm the gain would have been triple! One other option trade I closed 1/2 my position for a $103% gain with the other half now at over 100% gain. The other two are closing in a 100% gain and have gone over 100% after hours in the past week. Although the information emails are often overwhelming, I pick & choose what I want to read and tune out the other noise. Most his stock picks are over 10% gains so far with many being between 25%-47% gains. I am very happy with the customer service I receive and my results to date. J.Booz

176% in 16 days. Playing with house money now.

I am going to make this short and sweet. Enrique just wanted to say great call on the silver play, even though you did not suggest options I chose them over the stock. In 16 days I just bagged 176% on August atm options I bought 9 sold 6 letting three ride. Will sell one more when silver hits 38 and let the rest ride to expiration. Hoping for that $50 silver Ring keeps talking about.

Although I only had the chance to speak with three of their team members, they were incredibly understanding and knowledgeable about what I’m going through. My partner is dealing with diabetes and has become bedridden, which has been very challenging for both of us. The support and the expertise I received from Paradigm Press have been invaluable.

I watched a long presentation about…

I watched a long presentation about James A being able to pick stocks set to rise in the near future. It sounded legit and I subscribed. It took me about a week to dig into the starting materials. It turned out that they were pushing options trading only. This was hardly mentioned durig the presentation. I checked with my brokerage and was told i was not able to trade options without a few weeks of their training. I called back and told them I was not able to trade options with my brokerage and requested a refund. The person I talked to me and told me they understood and would procees a refund. I waited a few weeks for my credit card statment and there was no refund. I called back to Paradigm and talked to a very rude man and he told me there would be no refund despite someone else telling me differently. I challenged the charge on my credit card and the credit card told me they presented evidence that I was not entitled to a refund but wouldn't tell me what it was. They closed the case with no more options to reverse the charges. Bottom line I'm out $2000 for nothing. I really feel cheated.

The only service I've used is options

The only service I've used is options, started as Weekly Wealth Alert with Alan Knuckman. Claimed 52% win rate, which is about what I've experienced. He left and it became Altucher's True Alpha (think) with different style of trading that so far has worked out very well. Closed out 2nd half position today at 196% total on trade overall.

I've lost $40,000 following their advice. If you're thinking about buying their investment strategies…STOP

If you're thinking about buying their investment strategies—STOP and READ MY REVIEW.

Their investment recommendations, mainly from Jim Rickards and James Altucher, are hit or miss—pure luck. Yes, I made some money on a few picks, but I also lost a lot following their advice. I even paid for their top-tier program, which cost $2,999 (each for Rickards and Altucher, I bought three overall).

Their sales videos are incredibly persuasive, making it seem like you just need to buy one small company to 100x your money. Well, I bought MRVL based on Altucker's latest recommendation in a program that cost me $3,000—only to be down $6,000 so far on stock options. In total, I’ve lost over $40,000 on their recommendations. Right now, I’m sitting on a recommended position that’s down $20,000 (invested $35,000, now worth $15,000—see attached screenshot).

Despite unsubscribing from their newsletters, I still receive them, and they keep selling my email and phone number. Every week, I get spammed by a new “investment guru.” I’ve complained and asked them to stop selling my information, but they clearly don’t care.

They are in the business of selling information, not making real money from investments. If they were truly good at investing, they would run their own hedge fund instead of selling subscriptions. But they can’t—so they look for people like you and me to fall for their sales pitches.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. DO NOT FALL FOR THEIR FALSE PROMISES.

Dear Andrei, we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We understand that investing can be challenging, and market fluctuations can be frustrating. However, it’s important to recognize that no investment strategy guarantees success overnight.

Many of our most successful subscribers understand that a 90-day window isn’t always enough to properly evaluate a strategy, and from what we can tell you purchased your subscription on a quarterly basis. Markets move in cycles, and certain trades may take time to fully play out. Additionally, following a disciplined approach—such as allocating equal amounts across multiple trades rather than cherry-picking recommendations—is key to long-term success.

As for True Alpha, the service you’ve subscribed to, it maintains one of the best track records in the industry, boasting a 67%-win rate with an average return of nearly 42% in 2024. While not every trade will be a winner, the goal is to generate strong overall returns over time.

Regarding your concerns about emails, we never sell your personal information. Your membership includes free research from our analysts and their colleagues, as well as occasional recommendations from trusted partners. We always include a note at the top when an email comes from an external group. However, if you are still receiving emails after unsubscribing, we would be happy to assist you in resolving this issue. Please reach out to our support team directly at 844-731-0984, or submit a request online using this link https://paradigmpressgroup.com/contact-us.

We value your business and genuinely want to help you succeed. If you have any questions about strategy execution or risk management, we encourage you to reach out to our team. We’re here to help.

Bait and Switch Subscription Cheater

Bait and switch cheater lying subscription eater. Don't use this service. They promise you all this stuff and do nothing to increase your portfolio. I'm suppose to have a lifetime subscription and Jame Altucher has created a new platform to deliver his supposable best trades to make you money at your own risk. The only risk is that he keeps on baiting and switching you to another product, and none of them have any value on the trades recommended. You just keep on paying his subscription eater more and more money with benefits that do absolutely nothing as he takes more money out your pocket. I'm going to report him to the Better Business Bureau he's such a thief! Buyer beware!! Don't believe anything he says.

WHAT THE F....

So I decided to retry James Altucher and enter into his GREAT GAINS EVENT BLUEPRINT. I decided to look over the RATE you experience page before entering the work it out section. WOW! My surprise. Not only was I brought back to a sudden reality check, but returned to this current page to send you this reply to my severed spine and nature, that I was not wrong in my first response and visit to your company, several months ago, and my feelings about what I felt . It made me decide to "stay away". Tell James I spent three tries at listening to his too long a speech about his feelings and my inept ability to not hit a button on my phone that destroyed his too long of a speech and no reset button on my phone, so I got a "3 for"and came into the house to type out my request to "join up". Then reality hit me and I am sending you this polite letter instead. As I am very much an 82 year old who is watching the USA he grew up in turn into Socialism on steroids, And some "rich" guys run it amuck with the thoughts of "saving the USA", I can only think of the need for more than 2 -747's to fly ALL the right people to Cuba some 4 AM flight. Time for the ( USA) military to take over and cancel the Presidents position as #1.

Dear William, we take feedback like this very seriously and always strive to help our customers make informed investment decisions. We reached out to Trustpilot in an attempt to obtain more information so we could locate your account and address your concerns, but unfortunately, you never responded with any identifying details. Without that information, we have no way of verifying your experience or assisting you.

To be clear, we are not a scam—we have thousands of satisfied subscribers who follow our recommendations successfully. However, as with any investment, there are risks involved. We consistently advise customers never to risk more than they can afford to lose and to diversify their investments rather than putting everything into a single recommendation. Many times when customers lose money, it is because they are not properly following the strategies we outline.

That said, we would still love to help you.

Just finished a WHOLE LONG WINDED SALES…

Just finished a WHOLE LONG WINDED SALES PROMO for Altucher's Investment. Almost fell for it at $49/year. Boy, they promise u t moon, sun and t stars. I almost fell for it. This time I was smart enough to ck TP reviews. All my past nightmares w other companies came back to me. Endless barage of email spam, email sold/given to other promoters. Reviews here mention the pain of dealing w this company. They promote their previous 20,000% and 50,000% recommendations. Even if they get one guess right, it's not worth t hassle. Yeah, they probably do lots of good work, some good information and recommendations, but not falling for it w them.

Thanks for sharing your feedback, Jeff. I’m sorry to hear the promotion felt like too much—it’s definitely not our goal to overwhelm anyone. As a company, we’re focused on delivering valuable investment ideas, but I understand that the way it came across didn’t sit right with you.

We do highlight some of our most successful recommendations because we’re proud of them, but we also try to make it clear that not every pick will hit those same highs—investing always involves risks.

When it comes to emails, we only send information about ideas we think you might find interesting. That said, I understand how it can feel like a lot. You can always adjust your preferences or remove yourself from certain emails at any time. If it’s easier, our customer service team would be happy to help make those changes for you.

If you’ve had bad experiences with other companies before, I completely get your hesitation. We work hard to provide solid recommendations and strong customer support, and we’re proud of the results many of our portfolios have delivered.

We really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts—it helps us get better. If there’s anything else you’d like to discuss, feel free to reach out.

Will do anything to get your money

No matter how hard you try to opt out, you can't. They'll hit you from 100 different email addresses. I must have unsubscribed from at least 8 different newsletters they've sent me, and I keep getting new ones. If you wind up making a one time purchase of anything, READ THE FINE PRINT. THEY WILL LIKELY OPT YOU INTO A YEAR LONG SUBSCRIPTION AUTOMATICALLY. I got hit with an $82 charge for a year of newsletters I thought were free, exactly 12 months after I made a 1 time purchase. I had no idea I signed up for this. READ THE T&Cs CAREFULLY. Nowhere did they say in plain English that I would be paying $82 for a year long subscription to baity marketing emails that give zero value and serve only to drive me towards more purchases. Non existent customer support. One of the most horrific companies i've dealt with.

Updated: Paradigm Press' Income Aliance - Loser, 45% down!

Paradigm Press has an investment advisory service called Income Aliance, managed by a previous hedge fund manager, Zach Sheidt. The service started in April 2023 and I joined as one of their first group of investors. Since then - now 19 months later - Zach has managed to make a whopping -40% on the Income Aliance portfolio. And keep in mind that is during a VERY upbeat market. He is wrong MUCH more than he is right and following his recommdations has basically destroyed the entire value of my portfolio.

His recommendations are SO wrong and inaccurate, it’s not a surprise at all that he is no longer managing a hedge fund. Now he's moved on to wreak his havok on an entirely new batch of clients. I mean really... after 19 months in an up market, losing 40% of the sample portfolio's entire value? That's shameful, and Paradigm should ask him to resign (and fire him if he doesn't). Get someone at least a LITTLE competent to run the service, PLEASE. This guy is a disaster, other positive reviews are obviously fake! SEE MY PROFILE PICTURE FOR PROOF!

UPDATE: May 15, 2025 - The results have NOT improved. This guy's score with the model portfolio, starting in April 2023 with 100,000$, is now an impressive -34%. I'm surprised anyone is actually following this guy. His recommendations are a complete train wreck, there is no other possible conclusion - its ALSO quite obvious that all of the glowing reviews posted for the Income Alliance are complete fakes. If you follow his recommendations your portfolio will be completely destroyed.
