Miss anything last week?

We started out with a widely-requested look at the "God Key" pitch from Jeff Brown at Bonner... the "most revolutionary biotechnology since antibiotics." So what's the story? Just click here for the Thinkolator results.

Doc Gumshoe popped in to look at yet another promise of medical "miracles" in the world of health and supplement marketing... his latest piece is here.

And speaking of health, we also covered an ad from Mark Skousen that hints at another life-changing biotech investment... the company that will put an end to heart disease. What could go wrong? Our take on that is here.

And we also re-checked a few older teasers that are still being asked about... like Ray Blanco's Halo-Fi "Death to Cable" pitch for $7/month internet being spread around the globe... Park Avenue Investment Club's spiel about "Deep Learning" ... and Oxford Club's "Cash Rebate for 2017" promise.

The week closed out with a couple pieces for the Irregulars -- I shared my Friday File, updating my thoughts on bitcoin and a few stocks in the Real Money Portfolio, and adding a new stock to that portfolio... and then Dr. KSS posted a brief update on Arch Therapeutics this weekend.
