Product: The Real Wealth Strategist Website: freedomchecks.com Owner: Banyan Hill Publishing Opinion: Not Recommended Click to DISCOVER a Proven Path to Financial Independence! What is Freedom Checks? In the Freedom Checks video, Matt Badiali holds up what looks like a US Treasury check for $114,287. The top line of the check is blurred, so you can’t determine for sure if the check is genuine US Treasury check. However, clearly, that is the impression Matt Badiali is attempting to create. Because the actual source of the check is blurred, I suspect it is just a prop made for the video. Mr. Badiali tells us that we can get our piece of the multi-billion Freedom Check pie. All we must do is stake our claim. We’re told that 568 agencies across the United States will begin paying out more than $34 billion next month. As the pitch continues, we are led to believe that the US Government is giving away free money. Badiali tells us of people all over the country who are getting large Freedom Checks, sometimes as often as every week. Then we are shown a calendar and the days when Freedom Checks are cut and distributed. Quotes from the Wall Street Journal, Seeking Alpha, and media outlets stream across the screen, all apparently singing the praises of Freedom Checks or at least that is what we are led to believe. However, the word “Freedom Checks” is not specifically seen in the printed quotes. Badiali tells us that “depending on the size of your claim,” you could collect $12,000 to $55,000 and more. What does he mean by “the size of your claim?” Do we simply claim our money? If we claim more do we get more? According to Badiali all we have to do is decide how many Freedom Checks we want and watch the cash pile up. Apparently, it’s free money. Within a few minutes of Badiali’s brilliant pitch, we are feeling greedy. We want our Freedom Checks! Click to DISCOVER a Proven Path to Financial Independence! What are Freedom Checks Really? Matt Badiali, the Freedom Checks spokesperson, is a Senior Editor at Banyan Hill Publishing. Banyon Hill Publishing publishes investment newsletters. Matt Badiali oversees two investment newsletters, The Real Wealth Strategist, and Front Line Profits. The Freedom Checks video and sales pitch are designed to sell you a subscription to The Real Wealth Strategist. The initial subscription is $49 a month. Once you subscribe, you will be met with marketing campaigns promoting more expensive investment products. Matt Badiali Freedom Checks. The Real Wealth Strategist is a newsletter that promotes investments in natural resource mining and extraction. What Matt Badiali calls Freedom Checks are really nothing more than a dividend check. Freedom Check is just a word Badiali and his copywriters chose to name common dividends to make it sound like Badiali knows a valuable secret. A dividend is a portion of the earnings a company pays to its stockholders. In other words, if you want a Freedom Check, you will have to own stock in a company. Through his newsletter, The Real Wealth Strategist, Badiali will recommend stocks for you to buy. Freedom Checks are NOT Free. If you want to receive Freedom Checks the size Badiali promises, you will have to first buy a lot of stock. Buying stock can get expensive and risky. If you want a Freedom Check the size Badiali presents at the beginning of the sales video, $114,287, you will probably have to own a million dollars or more worth of stock. Is Freedom Checks Bait and Switch? It's just a financial newsletter. Contrary to Mr. Badiali’s brilliant sales pitch, the US Government is not handing out checks for $114,287. Nothing Badiali offers will get you free money. Making money with stocks can be an excellent investment strategy.

The online Merriam-Webster’s Learner’s Dictionary defines a scam as “a dishonest way to make money by deceiving people.” Regardless of our understanding of deception. There are two reasons why I will refrain from labeling Freedom Checks a scam, lawyers, and more lawyers. Banyan Hill Publishing’s parent company, Agora, has been in the financial newsletter business a long time. Agora is a $500,000,000 company. In 1995, Agora was sued for violation of state and federal securities laws because of promises they made in a sales campaign. “The court dismissed the complaint, holding that Agora, as the publisher of a subscription investment newsletter, was protected by the First Amendment against liability for factual misstatements.” Apparently, although Agora made "factual misstatements," it's okay because it is protected by it's right of freedom of speech. Investing in Stocks. If you know what you are doing, investing in stocks can be very lucrative. However, blindly following the advice of financial newsletter because you think you're going to get a Freedom Check is a mistake. Like some financial news shows and websites, some financial newsletters are paid to promote a specific stock. In other words, a company or a broker pays the newsletter to help them dump junk stock or trick amateur investors into investing in a company professional investors won't touch it. If you don’t know how to determine the value of a stock, you could easily lose a lot of money.
