We’re holding a free informational webinar tomorrow at 12pm ET / 9am PT.
It’s to show you how lucrative “direct investing” can be. Direct investing is another way to say private placement — a way to buy shares directly from a public company instead of through a broker or exchange.
I won’t extoll the benefits here. I have done so in many previous articles and reports. And I will do so again in the webinar that you should attend tomorrow.
I started investing this way in 2016. At the age of 33, I retired my wife the same year. The next year, we bought a million-dollar farmette and custom cabin in Eastern Washington, where we moved from Maryland to reduce our tax burden.
Gerardo has a similar trajectory. He just built a lazy river around his second Austin home.
We both came from very little means. Private placements changed that for both of us.
Tomorrow, we’ll show you how you can use them for yourself.
It’s been eight months since we held one of these events. The last time we had one, in June 2024, we invited you to participate alongside us in a private placement for Hannan Metals (TSX-V: HAN)(OTC: HANNF).
Hannan was onto a new copper-gold discovery in the Peruvian highlands that had never been explored before. We purchased shares directly from the company at 35-cents.
Each of those shares came with a half warrant at 50-cents good for two years. That means any time before mid-2026, we can buy more shares of Hannan at 50-cents no matter how high they go.
And go high they did.
Since we bought those shares at 35-cents last summer, Hannan has climbed to a high of C$1.29 — a 330% gain in less than a year.

We also have the warrants at C$0.50. And while we have more than a full year before we need to exercise them, they are already more than 150% in the money.
A $20,000 investment in this placement is now worth over $70,000.
And that’s without the warrants.
Exercising those this month would put another $22,000 in your pocket.
Not for the Faint of Wallet
You probably noticed I used $20,000 as a starting figure for that investment.
If you can’t commit to putting 5-figures into deals like this a few times per year, private placements probably aren’t for you.
I had to scrape for the first few deals I did, but I did it. And I have no regrets.
Most of the clients we serve at Private Placement Intel are putting $20,000 to $100,000 into the deals we recommend.
We have some high-profile members you might recognize by name. Doug Casey is one of them, and he’s been publicly vocal about the quality private placements that we source.
But most members you wouldn’t know from Adam. They are ranch owners. They own plumbing or electrical or landscaping businesses. They are your daughter’s dentist.
They are you.
We can show you how to get started investing this way.
We have our eye on three new private placements — or direct investments — that should unfold over the next few weeks.
Tomorrow, we’ll go over all the specifics of how to invest this way. You can ask questions. We’ll outline the next few deals we have coming up. And we’ll invite you, just like we did with Hannan, to start investing this way alongside us.
All you have to do is attend.
We’ll send you an email alert with a link to join a few minutes before the event. Wednesday, February 12th, at 12pm ET / 9am PT.
See you there.
