Today's comment is by David Newman, Market Analyst and editor of Accelerated Income for The Sovereign Society.

This week my family and I moved into a new house. And already we're in, all the furniture is in place, the boxes are empty and everything found a spot in our new home (except for the cat who is still freaked out). And with all the craziness of the move comes this wonderful feeling of bliss.

All is well, until...

The doorbell rings. It's the new neighbors wanting to welcome us to the street. The usual hellos are followed by the usual questions. Where did you move from? How many kids do you have...how old...what school do they go to?

And then...so where do you work, what do you do?

Now, my wife Tammy is a chef and teaches culinary at the local high school. Everybody is always interested in that. They want to learn more about it and come over for cooking lessons. We've moved four times in the last 10 years...it's always the same.

And then here comes the question...So, David what do you do? And that's when Tammy looks at me and smiles. She invites them to sit down have a drink and starts breaking out the food. She knows...this is going to take a while.

They Call It "Politeness," I Call It "Homework"

These conversations have been my greatest source of research in the last few years.

I give them the quick summary of The Sovereign Society, of the newsletter business, of the newsletters I write and then I quickly turn the conversation to them.

So, Doug what are you looking for when you invest?

It's funny how the answers have changed over the years, but right now I'm hearing more realistic answers than I have in a long, long time.

"If I could just get 10% to 12% on my serious money without taking a huge amount of risk, that would be great."

I'm hearing this more and more...from my old neighbors, my new neighbors...when I speak at conferences and when I read our email. So I dug in, poured hours and hours of research into looking for the answer, read everything I could, called all my contacts and finally found it...

Today I'm going to share with you my findings. I'll tell you how to secure your long-term safe money and earn quick short-term profits. Up until now these ingenious investments were really only used by elite, professional Wall Street investors.

What's more, these are just the types of investments that you've been looking for...

A Whole New World of Opportunity

Welcome to the world of structured products...

Structured products can generate huge "guaranteed cash dividends" as high as 10%, 20% and more while limiting your risk. They come with downside protection, usually 20% - 30% or more and can be held within your IRA.

These structures are issued by many AA/Aa1 rated banks and brokers, who guarantee the "cash dividend." You see you never own the underlying stock, commodity, or index. And you get your ‘cash dividend' no matter what the underlying stock does.

Now I know they're not the usual run of the mill investments - but in these wild markets you have to look for innovative solutions.

And structured products are just that solution. I'll be back here in the A-Letter in the next few weeks to tell you more about my favorite way to make guaranteed returns - even when stocks go absolutely nowhere.

DAVID NEWMAN, Market Analyst

EDITOR'S NOTE: In the October issue of The Sovereign Individual, David will recommend a structured product that lets you capitalize on one of the hottest new energy plays on the market. But get this: It doesn't matter whether this stock goes anywhere at all. In fact, we're betting it will go nowhere. Assuming the stock holds, you'll receive your initial investment back plus the "cash dividend," from now until NEXT June. If you're a Sovereign Society member, please look for your next issue going online the weekend of the 20th. Not a member? Try a risk-free trial so you can get in on this dynamite play.

Wall Street Bandits Swipe $566.2 Million from
Unlocked 'Retirement Accounts'

Baltimore, Md. - For some, it's already too late.

• On July 15th, they dipped into Vincent Nelson's 'account' and 'withdrew' $4,250.
• On January 15th, they 'grabbed' $195 from bank manager, Mildred Cheron.
• On May 6th, they 'siphoned' $73,860 from Peter McIverson, a restaurant owner from Lubbock, Texas

What did these poor souls have in common?

They fell into Wall Street's biggest money trap. And they're not alone. Millions of trusting Americans have been baited and bilked for huge chunks of cash.

And you could be next...

Once they take your money - that's it. You could write letters to the Better Business Bureau... you Congressman... or the entire alphabet soup of government agencies. None of them will lift a finger.

Because this swindle is 100% legal!
