The Maven Letter: January 23, 2019

“I discovered Jeff’s newsletter on X in 2023 and dove into investing, inspired partly by his book *Pay Dirt*. As someone who loves gardening and digging in the earth, I’ve never struck gold in my backyard—just some impressive potatoes! But Jeff’s advice taught me that, like tending a garden, patience in investing yields big rewards. The free newsletter is exceptional, with Jeff’s team offering prompt responses and updates, even on underperforming assets. Their credibility shines through because they invest in what they recommend. Plus, I appreciate how they highlight mining companies that work closely with indigenous communities and prioritize environmentally conscious practices. It’s an authentic, gold-filled service that keeps delivering.”

Dear Peter, dear Jeff’s two X, First of all, thank you very much for your professional, enthusiastic, and at the same time insightful work. I’ve been reading your articles for about two years now and I’ve noticed and continue to notice how good you are in my portfolio. What do I mean by that? Until now, I was used to searching for, evaluating, and then buying the smaller explorers myself. Since I’ve been on your site almost every day, and my risk portfolio now consists of about 40% of the stocks you present and manage, it’s a sign of the quality you deliver, and I’m happy to add it to my portfolio. You fulfill three important points of my assessment of “other opinions and research”: 1. You are invested in your stocks yourself, some more than others, but still invested! 2. It’s transparent that you receive money from some of the miners for your work, and if not more, then it’s also transparent and fair! 3. You have tremendous knowledge, great enthusiasm, dedication, and a very good information-gathering base. I greatly appreciate all of this from afar in Germany!!! So: please stay healthy and hopeful for a long time to come and keep it up!!! Warmest regards from Hamburg, Bernhard M. p.s. this email says it all:)

I’d like to thank the whole team for their sincere and very trustworthy behaviour and acting; since I joined late summer 2025, I felt part of the familiy and extremly well treated. Each question was answered very fast and the admin topics with Jenn worked excellent. Other people in the finance industry could look up to the Gold Advisor team and take them as a role model. Looking forward to continue the journey with the Gold Advisor Team. Many Thanks & Best Regards from Switzerland

I’m thrilled with the Pay Dirt subscription and education! It’s been a game-changer for my learning journey.

Greetings from the Netherlands. I just wanted to tell you I really like your content. It greatly helped me become a better PM mining investor. Please send this message to your team.

Thank you so much for your timely responses, incredible insight and research! I have been putting it all to good use. Sometimes I have to pull myself away from reading your analysis to attend to my day job, although this is much more fun!!

Kudos to the whole team for the great work and expanding services on the site. Congrats.

I loved your book, Jeff. Well done. I have been a stacker for ten years now and only started the mining stocks the past year and why I enjoyed your book. Peter’s Silver Bull was also great as well. My son and I follow you all and your podcasts. Thanks again.

Thanks so much and I really appreciate your coverage of things. I’m starting to make some real money and you/Jeff Clark are big reasons why. Sincerely and with thanks,

Hi Jeff,Thanks for all your great advice. I am most pleased with the results. My portfolio of your recommendations is up well over 100% since January.
