A one-year subscription costs $99. The offer is to spend $99+ and get $99 back, so it's a free one-year subscription.

Get a one-time $99 statement credit after using your enrolled eligible Card to make a single subscription-based purchase of $99+ online at The Motley Fool or at fool.com/amex [fool.com] by 5/8/2021. See terms.

Quote :
Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible. American Express Prepaid Cards, Corporate Cards and American Express Cards issued outside the United States are not eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid only on US website or at Fool.com/amex. Valid only on purchases made in US dollars. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. The enrolled Card account must not be cancelled or past due to receive statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 5/8/2021, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. The Motley Fool Terms and Conditions currently provide that unless you notify The Motley Fool that you want to cancel, or that you do not want to auto renew, your subscription or membership fee will automatically renew for another subscription period (subject to applicable law) of equal length (for example, monthly, or annually). This means that The Motley Fool will collect the then-applicable membership or subscription fee and any taxes by charging a credit card The Motley Fool has on record for you without notifying you, unless notification is required by applicable law. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items from your qualifying purchase have been provided/shipped by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer.

Send an email to [email protected] after you have signed up requesting opt-out for the auto renewal. After I did that, they sent me an email that said: "we have disabled the auto-renewal feature"

If you search online - you will find 2-year packages to StockAdvisor or Rule-breakers for only $98 (one-year for $59)

Rule Breakers (1-Year) for $99:

To help with your request, please email us at [email protected], or by filling out the online Contact Customer Service form.

PRIVACY SETTINGS for premium subscriber

============================================
[b]For those curious how Motley Fool's stock picks are performing I setup a pie (portfolio) on M1Finance with 41 of the most recent suggested stocks from Tom and David. As long as I see reps coming from this thread so I know people are still using it I will update this link every Thursday to show the new recommendations.
https://m1.finance/2M-jgR32cPTC [Final update was on 04/08 due to apparent lack of interest].
M1finance gives you free trades and fractional shares which means you can transfer xxx dollars a week or 2 weeks and it will adjust it based on your percentages.
Advantage of fractional shares is explained well here: https://www.fool.com/investing/ho...al-shares/

For the people complaining about to much spam before you go crazy and cancel your account, go into your account settings and uncheck what you don't want. I have everything unchecked but the buy/sell alerts in stock advisor. https://www.fool.com/account/comm...-settings/

I just signed up. The first thing they do is try to sell you upgraded services for anywhere from $200-$14,000. The "premium" service we get is nearly useless. The last stock picks article is from December 28.
Swagbucks has 7500SB for the $99 yearly subscription as well, should be stackable for a nice MM.
Market correction coming soon for GameStop.

If you did it right you started investing in 20's or 30's and even in your 50's you can withstand crashes.

What idiot takes a 30-50+% hit in his 50s and wants to wait until his 60s to get back to where they were? Maybe you want to work until you are 70+...most people don't and many can't even if they wanted to.

Is it just me or are the recommendations really basic? The reports for each stock is like 2 paragraphs and then it goes into ads...or am I not using this correct? Was expecting cery detailed analysis.
A lot of these article are generic Ai generated.

Private sector pays more. You take a hit in salary to work for govt for the security of pension. Smart move for many.

Anyone recently (like within the last hour) successfully use a CB site and it show a price of $99? Cheapest one when I go through various CB sites shows $199. There is another section that says "check out this offer" on some of the CB sites, and it links to the $99 HOWEVER i don't believe it'll track for the CB offer.

And that 8 million will be taxed at up to 40% if the current admin has its way, then add in state and local taxes. Watch the 8 million turn into < 5 in a hurry if sold.

Then factor in a 40% drop in the market for riding it out...so down to under 3M.

Anyone 70+ with those kind of assets should be largely out of stocks. There is no reason to be playing Vegas with the bulk of your assets and take on that risk. A good financial advisor would never advise such.

You're wrong. She has retirement income of over 100k separate from the stocks so she has no reason to sell.

So you would risk losing 40+% of 8M because you get income of 100k a year?????...OK...whatever works for you. In my world, that is just crazy, but to each his own. I diversify into bonds and safe income producing real estate, maybe some decent short term annuities. Leave a small portion in safe dividend producing stocks. Make sure I move to a no tax state like Florida to avoid any state and local taxes when I sell as well and live comfortably the rest of my life without fear that a correction wipes out half my net worth.

You don't lose money until you sell. If market takes a downturn and stock portfolio goes down 40% and you don't sell while market is down you haven't lost any money.
