All we have to offer are words

Bill Bonner’s Diary

Maria’s Note: Maria Bonaventura here, managing editor of the Diary. We’re doing something a little different today… Instead of Bill’s usual commentary, we’re kicking off the new year (and the new decade) with a timeless message from our editor.

Longtime readers will be familiar with this message. But if you’re just joining us at the Diary, it will help you understand us better…


All We Have to Offer Are Words

By Bill Bonner, Chairman, Bonner & Partners

Every day in the Diary, we try to understand how things work, fearlessly following our motto: “Sometimes right. Sometimes wrong. Always in doubt.”

Longtime readers know that, as part of your Diary subscription, we send you promotional offers on behalf of our friends, our partners, and ourselves.

We hear from subscribers every day who feel annoyed by, and suspicious of, these efforts. We even feel that way ourselves from time to time.

Subscribers don’t like to feel like we are preying on them – like a hawk looking for field mice. We don’t like having to work so hard coming up with snappy new sales pitches. We also don’t like it when customers think we are a bunch of shysters.

But the thing is… our model, which relies on sharing offers from our advertising partners, is the most honest way of doing business we can find.

By that I mean it aligns your interests with our interests. Unlike the mainstream press, we don’t make our money from corporate advertisers. Unlike Wall Street, we don’t take commissions or fees from the companies we cover in our newsletters. And we never sell email addresses.

Instead, we sell ideas, information, opinions, and recommendations. What you see is what you get. There’s no more to it. All we have to offer are words… sometimes sober, sometimes wild.

(As economist John Maynard Keynes put it, “Words ought to be a little wild, for they are the assaults of thoughts on the unthinking.”)

In more than three decades in the business, we have built a loyal readership. Our marketing – offering strongly worded opinions and ideas – has helped make that possible. And it is the only thing that makes it possible for us to send out a free daily commentary, for example.

Our daily Diary takes about six hours a day to research and write. And there are a half-dozen other people who edit and make sure that it gets sent out.

You get all of that at no cost to you. All we ask is that you keep an open mind about the other products and services that are offered. That’s the deal.

But if you’d prefer not to hear about opportunities from us, you can simply unsubscribe from the Diary. You’ll find instructions on how to do that in the footer of every issue.

No hard feelings. But we’d be sorry to see you go…

Regards,

Maria’s Note: We hope this helped put things in perspective – whether you’ve been with us for decades or are new to the Diary.

Bill will be back with his usual look behind the curtain of the world of money and politics tomorrow. In the meantime, we invite you to enjoy some of our favorite Diary essays from 2019 below. And have a great 2020…

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT…

Why Did This Millionaire Just Destroy a New 5G Phone?

Have you seen this video of a geologist destroying a brand new, $1,400 5G phone?

Rest assured, it’s not an act of vandalism…

Instead, he’s blowing the lid off a 5G story the mainstream media isn’t reporting on…

Including 3 unusual investments that could potentially soar up to 6,000% in the coming months.

Watch this first-ever demonstration before it gets yanked offline.
