Addison Wiggin – October 21, 2011
Dear 5 Min. Forecast Reader,
First, let me apologize. You haven’t received a 5 Min. Forecast in two days… if you enjoy reading it as much as I do writing, well, you’ve probably missed the daily episodes.
There’s a good reason why you haven’t gotten them. I’ve approached the last two days like an expectant father.
For six years, I’ve been working on a new project… let’s call it “Project X.”
The project is bigger than my book The Demise of The Dollar… and the two I co-wrote with Bill Bonner, Financial Reckoning Day and Empire of Debt.
It’s even bigger than my Sundance accepted documentary, I.O.U.S.A.
And provided everything goes off without a hitch, “Project X” will not only change the way you look at the world, it revolutionize the way you invest, build new wealth, fund your retirement and even provide for your family.
To say I’m a little nervous would be an understatement.
There have been no less than 27 people involved in building and organizing this new venture. The team includes our founder, Bill Bonner; our team of in-house legal experts; the CEO and CFO of Agora Inc.; an entire new affiliate to the Agora family of companies; programmers, marketers, publishers; and the panoply of writers and thinkers you’ve come to rely on in the 5 Min. Forecast.
Many of us have been working on “Project X” in secret.
It would be hard to even count the number of hours that have already been thrown at it. Or the number of air miles we’ve logged to pull it off. Members of our own staff have even been wondering what we’re up to…
For obvious reasons, I can’t reveal what “Project X” is just yet. But I can tell you what it is not: It’s not the Apogee Advisory or any new newsletter. It’s not a book. It’s not a conference, symposium or cruise. It’s not a new email service… or even a new documentary film.
Fact is, it’s not like anything we’ve ever done.
But with our sincerest intentions it will allow you to independently — and confidently — build lasting wealth for you and your family. And I’m thrilled “Project X” is only a few short days away from getting launched.
Again, I apologize for the delay in getting you The 5. But I hope you’ll understand. There is a lot riding on whether or not you like what we’ve done!
Cheers,
Addison Wiggin
The 5 Min. Forecast
P.S. Overnight, we had a last-minute break down with our legal department, which we’ve since resolved.
Now, I believe, we’re all set.
On Monday, you’ll receive an explicit set of instructions on what to do in order to be considered for inclusion in the new program. After you’ve had a chance to look it over, we’ll be asking you to give us your feedback and let us know what we can do to improve the project.
Until then, enjoy your weekend!
The 5 will return once we’ve gotten “Project X” under way.
