If you're looking to get rich overnight. This is not for you. Go buy a lottery ticket...head to Las Vegas...speculate on some penny stocks...or bet the works on some option futures. This is not about gambling. It's about identifying the most responsible, conservative, low-risk places to put your money so that...
 

• Even if we're headed for a double dip...
   
• Even if we're in for another 10 years of a sideways stock market...
   
• Even if the economy and unemployment stay stuck for years...

...ten years from now the money you set aside now will have grown tenfold!
 

I'm planning for tuition bills, but if you're planning for retirement, a ten-fold increase in ten years ought to sound pretty good compared to what's happened over the last decade!

You don't need $100,000 to start with. You can apply my strategy to a nest egg of $50,000...$25,000...even $10,000.

If you have reasonable expectations, are willing to save money to achieve your goals, and are prepared to make rational investment decisions for long term gains, then I know you'll benefit from my $100k Portfolio investment newsletter advisory.

Through the $100k Portfolio investment newsletter service, I intend to help you achieve your financial goals by showing you exactly what I'm doing in my personal investment account.
 

The best time to be an investor is when the markets are uncertain and as a result, valuations are cheap. Just think about the bear market of 2008 / 2009, the aftermath of the dot com crash and 9/11, or the 1987 plunge for stocks.

The good news for investors facing retirement is that, despite a significant move higher from the 2009 lows, many stocks remain attractively valued.

With some large-cap stocks trading for less than 15-times current year earnings (2010) and just 13-times forward earnings (2011), the index looks to be very attractively valued even after its gains since the 2009 lows.

Remember, with interest rates at historic lows and more than $3.5 trillion still sitting on the stock market side lines, a more-business friendly Congress should unleash a flood of investment buying that could send the market soaring.

Additionally, the under-performance of stocks over the last decade suggests that the coming ten years may provide more healthy returns. While the coming years are unlikely to rival the impressive gains of 2009 for stocks, I believe careful investors can look forward to several more years of outperformance for the market, provided you are in the right investments and have a well-balanced portfolio.
 

The key to my controlled risk approach is diversification. And to help you balance your portfolio, here's just a glimpse of my newest and best recommendations for the coming year.

As a new subscriber, you'll find complete details on your FREE copy of my Special Report: Top 10 Investments for Outstanding Profits in 2011!
 

1. Cash in on the world's fastest growing economies! Take advantage of emerging markets with this large-growth foreign fund that stands atop all others. In 2009, the fund turned in a total return of 78.1% and year-to-date its return through November 2010 is 17.6% compared to a 5.7% average of all foreign large-cap funds.
    
2. An Unsexy Service Everyone Needs. Some may perceive this as a dying industry, but since its start in 2001 this company has averaged impressive annual growth of 69% and I see no end to that trend. Its secret is the technology it uses to bring small businesses world wide the service and pricing usually reserved solely for big corporations.
    
3. Washington favors generic drugs. No matter how the new health-care laws play out, this company, the world's largest maker of generic drugs, stands to benefit. The latest quarterly net sales are up 20% and earnings increased a whopping 60%!
    
4. The sound of money! The best income investing strategy I know is an ETF (Exchange Traded Fund) of 101 of the best income-paying stocks. In these times of historic low interest rates, I expect this fund to deliver a yield that well superior to both U.S. Treasuries and corporate bonds.
    
5. I can hear you now! While more affluent individuals and business users have been smart phone uses for years, the real growth and staggering profits lie ahead as the new 4G phones invade the masses. Third quarter revenue for this high-speed wireless service were up 20% to $1.8 billion.
    
6. Even Better Than Gold! This ultra-conservative SPDR gold play is much like buying gold bars or coins, minus the headache of hiding them under your bed. Plus it affords you the flexibility to buy or sell at any time 24/7. If the gains in gold are any indicator, I think this is your golden ticket to safe profits in the future.
    
7. The Street's Best Fund Manager. This long-term growth fund is run by all-star manager Bruce Berkowitz, a value investor who is a fan of Warren Buffett's approach to investing. In 2010 he was named Morningstar's fund manager of the decade! YTD performance is a very respectable 13.6%, not bad for a super-safe conservative fund!
    
8. What's In Your Wallet? With some 1.6 billion of its credit and debit cards in circulation this company operates one of the largest payment networks in the world. In 2009 the company processed 22.4 billion transactions worth some $2.5 trillion. For reasons you'll discover in your FREE report, this particular company is in a unique position to benefit from global growth.
    
9. My Favorite Contrarian Play! This stock got slammed in the stock market crash and the global recession, but now represents one of the best opportunities out there to play the global economic recovery. This is your chance to buy a great global company at a very attractive price.
    
10. The Poor Man's Gold. Call it what you will, industrial demand for this precious metal will escalate as the global economies recover. Right now the metal is priced about 38% below its historic all-time high and this international mining giant is positioned for big profits as the metal climbs to new highs.
     

And there you have it, a sneak peak at my plans for 2011 and a glimpse of what you'll find covered in detail in your FREE copy of Top 10 Investments for Outstanding Profits in 2011! I hope you'll act now to receive your copy and that you'll buy and sell side-by-side with me in the coming year as we both work our way toward our personal goals. What kind of results can you expect?
 

After launching my real-money portfolio back in January, 2009, the low-risk, ultra-conservative investment account grew by 19.4 percent to $119,402 one year later. That's pretty darn good considering how volatile the DOW was for the same period.

But you know what? I want to do even better. I could have two, or perhaps three children to put through college. So that's why I'm on a ten year schedule and why I'm also resorting to the proven wealth-building strategy of every millionaire I've ever known.

Over the years, I've been fortunate enough to have known many self-made millionaires.

How do they do it? The answer is surprisingly simple. They have the self-discipline to save money on a regular basis. Even the super-rich know the wisdom of setting aside a certain amount to benefit from the miracle of compounding interest.

So, starting in June 2010, I decided to add an additional $1,000 in new capital to the account every month. These contributions are a form of forced savings. They allow me to constantly be putting new capital to work in the investment account, allowing me to dollar cost average into the market with $12,000 in new investments every year.

While saving this amount every month will have a financial impact on my spending decisions, I think the trade off and long-term benefit will be well worth the short-term sacrifices that I might need to make.

Again, you needn't start your own portfolio with an initial investment of $100,000 and you don't have to add $1,000 in new capital each month to profit from my every market move.

Whether you are concerned about your retirement. . .already retired and worrying about making your money last. . .or, like me, you're concerned first about providing for the college education of your children. . .if you interested in sure and steady growth, my $100k Portfolio can help.

Let me give you some specific rules that I personally live by when making investments in my own account. I hope you'll consider using these with your own investments as well.

Rule #1: You Should Never Ever Lose Money!
It sounds simple enough, but you probably break this rule time and again. And in doing so, your money-losing investments eliminate some or all of your gains. With investing, it may be impossible to NEVER lose money. Your real goal is to limit your losses, and maximize your gains.

Your first step is to avoid buying what I call "story stocks" – or those with a great promise, but no fundamentals to back up their claims. I frequently get emails from subscribers asking me about an early stage biotech with a potential cure for cancer, or the Internet social media company that could be the next Facebook. But nine times out of 10, these stocks are nothing more than a story. They may be the hopes and dreams of their managers and early stage investors, but they have no place in your investment account unless you recognize that you're gambling, and not investing.

Rule #2: Compound Interest Is Your Friend
Albert Einstein said, "The most powerful force in the universe is compound interest." Money that is invested and has the opportunity to compound will grow at a very impressive clip over time. The key is TIME.

You may be tempted to look for the next stock that will double or triple in a matter of months. Stocks do "break out" occasionally, but they're difficult to find and a risky approach for a long-term investment account. For my $100k Portfolio, your holdings need to be less speculative and more financially sound.

Whether you're 19 or 70 years old it's never too late to begin making the right investment decisions. Contributing to your investment account on a regular basis, and allowing your capital to appreciate over time will allow you to reap big rewards.

Rule #3: Time Investments, Not the Market
You can never know for certain if stocks will rise or fall tomorrow, next week, next month, or even this year. A very select few investors have a track record of accurately calling tops or bottoms in the market. I'm not one of them. And frankly, it doesn't matter. Your goal as an investor is to buy quality investments at attractive valuations, not to pick tops and bottoms in the market.

Instead of trying to time the market as a whole, investors like Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch seek out compelling opportunities in every market, by applying their strict rules and completing a thorough evaluation of specific investments.

Rule #4: Valuation Is Everything
It's easy to get suckered into paying too much for a Cinderella stock.

For example, the financial media may deluge you with stories of how technology is the "hot" sector favorite on Wall Street this month, and that tech stocks have been soaring. The talking heads may urge you to jump right in, ignoring a P/E that's through the roof and pointing to the great returns of the recent past. Sound familiar?

The best way to easily avoid booming sectors that are likely to blow up in the future is to focus on valuation. I believe investment valuations are more important than the "story" or "opportunity." Fundamentals don't lie, and investment valuations should be the result of financial performance and prospects for the future.

Rule #5: Learn to Be a Contrarian Investing
Do you tend to feel more comfortable following the herd. When home prices were rising, were you tempted to flip condos or buy up land to develop? When oil was headed for $147 a barrel, did you invest in oil futures? When tech stocks are soaring, did you invest in "the next Netscape?"

It's awfully easy to find yourself alone at the bar for last call, only to discover all the great opportunities are gone.

To Wall Street, the average Joe investor is simply a sucker. Someone to buy investments after the insiders have booked their gains. The real problem is that most investors make decisions based on their feelings, rather than evaluating the fundamentals of their investments. As a result, they sell at the worst time, and buy at the peaks. And they often lose money.

Successful investors bet against the trend, and have the conviction to take the path less traveled. They buy assets that they view as undervalued, without much concern of WHEN others will wake up and come to a similar conclusion.

Rule #6: Diversify. . .Diversify. . .Diversify!
Like so many investors I know, you may THINK you are diversified, but in fact you are probably not. You need to discover that true diversification means considering the balance of your portfolio in terms of asset classes (equities, fixed-income, real estate, hard assets, and cash), sectors (healthcare stocks, tech stocks, blue chips, small caps, emerging markets, municipal bonds, junk bonds, etc.), and individual investments.

The benefit of a balanced portfolio is that it includes both equities and fixed-income.

Fixed-income investments provide you with an income stream, which can add safety to your investment. And in times when equities move sideways, the income stream from fixed-income can help contribute significantly to your overall returns.

Rule #7: Buy & Hold = Buy & Fold
"Buy and hold" investing works only when the market is rising.
For the last 11 years, the market has been flat. There have been peaks and valleys along the way, but those who bought and held a decade ago are no better off today.

The big question is where are we NOW?

Time will tell, but the astute investor needs to look for a pattern and try to make investments that capitalize on the trend, buying when stocks are undervalued, and selling when they are overvalued. When stocks are rising and trading at new recent highs, it's easy to convince oneself that following the "smart money" and jumping into the market with both feet makes sense.

If during this secular bear market, you take the approach of "buy and hold", you might as well "buy and fold." Best case scenario, you may break even. Worst case scenario, you can expect some very unhealthy losses.

The right move is to make smart investments, and lock in profits along the way.
Selling winners and shedding losers should be applauded. And investors who want to cash in and make money in this market need to be prepared to pull the trigger when the time is right.
 

As I've been saying, I'm using these very same investment rules to guide every move I make in my $100k Portfolio to turn my initial investment into $1 million or more in just ten years.
