Options
Trading Course
Options are a powerful tool that all investors need to become
familiar with. If you've never used options in your portfolio, then over the
course of our seven-part trading course (see below) we will introduce you to the
basic mechanics of not only how options work, but also how they can work for
you.
Before you get started trading options, we'd urge you to
forget the stories you may have heard about how risky they are, and how some
investors have gone bankrupt using them. The truth is that options are designed
to help investors limit and manage risk. Over the course of this multi-part
series on options we will show you how to not only make money using
options, but more importantly, how to save money as well.

Income Security
of the Month
Our "Income Security of the Month" for May 2008 invests in
a fast-growing overseas market that doesn't get much exposure in the
mainstream financial press. And although it typically makes enormous
annual dividend payments -- it has paid an average dividend of 24.5%
per year over the past five years -- this fund is perhaps most
appealing for its total return potential. Specifically, the fund has
delivered total returns of +297.3% since 2003, and
it ranks in the top 10% of its category over the past decade.
