Dear Friend,

First of all, today I need to tell you that the doors to the Alpha Society will close to new members at midnight, January 15. After that, we will not be accepting new members for at least another year. So if you’re interested in joining us, you don’t have much time left. Take a look at what your membership entails right here.

The reason we’re closing the doors soon is that we have been accepting new members at a much higher rate than expected. That said, I’ve also been receiving plenty of inquiries from readers who just aren’t quite sure yet. On account of that, I’m taking this opportunity to answer some of the most frequently asked questions.

Absolutely not. The more diverse our members are, the better it is for the health of the Society. It thrives on different insights, ways of thinking, and experiences. The only “requirement” we have is that you value real conversation and debate. If you’re one of those folks who argue their point but don’t listen to others, you won’t be a good fit.

Mauldin Alpha Society members are part of an extended family—getting together at Mauldin Economics conferences and at gatherings organized around my travels to major cities. And of course, members get access to me, all the editors, and some speakers at the Strategic Investment Conference on a level simply not available to anyone else.

With a larger membership, that exclusivity would be lost. Plus, I want to ensure that you get the highest standard of service… and that can only be offered to a smaller group.

$5,950 plus an annual maintenance fee of $395 is not chump change. But if you add up what it would cost you to subscribe to each of the seven premium publications that are included in your Alpha Society membership, it comes to $6,741 per year. When you’re an Alpha Society member, your one-off joining fee plus the annual maintenance fee gives you access to every subscription service we publish for as long as we publish it. So it very quickly pays for itself.

Plus, the benefits of the Alpha Society Council, the quarterly conference calls, and all the other perks of being an Alpha Society member really can’t be quantified. They have the potential to improve your life in many different ways.

If you already subscribe to any Mauldin Economics publications, we will credit the remaining months of your subscriptions to your Alpha Society initiation fee. For example, if you just renewed your Macro Growth & Income Alert subscription a month ago, we will deduct $1,828.75 from your Alpha Society initiation fee, meaning it goes down to $4,121.25.

Any credit you are eligible for will be automatically calculated and applied when you enter your account information here.

As a courtesy, your membership comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Take the start of the new year to figure out whether the Alpha Society will be a good addition to your life—if you don’t think it’s right for you, let us know within those 30 days and we’ll refund what you paid.

I hope this email addressed your most important questions. Remember, there’s only a few days left to join the Alpha Society, and then it will close to new members for at least another year. Just follow the link below to find out more and accept your invitation.

Your happy to help analyst,
