Diamond Fields was a great investment for at least two reasons. First, they were very well connected to Namibia's powerful political machine because they hired so many local workers. Doug confirmed this fact when he shared dinner, a few beers, and a few laughs with Sam Nujoma, Namibia's so-called "terrorist" president.

And second, Diamond Fields fully owned two proven diamond mines in South Africa.

Doug had been buying Diamond Fields for several months - even before he first visited the site. And he made quite a tidy personal profit.

But here's the crux of the story. When Doug first started buying the company, it was a risky, highly speculative investment - not for the average part-time investor. He mentioned it a few times in the newsletter as a speculative buy. He cautioned his readers to be careful.

In fact, it wasn't until after he returned from Africa that he felt safe pulling out all the stops and encouraging all his readers to get in.

But he took a different tack with a smaller group of investors who also follow Doug's advice. This private group signed up with Doug looking for a different kind of investment - the kind that comes with higher risks, but can offer higher returns. With that in mind, Doug had no problem giving them a strong buy recommendation for Diamond Fields stock at $4.10.

Over the 15 months that followed, Diamond Fields stock continued to rise ... a major nickel discovery in Voisey's Bay, Labrador ... and just after a minor aberration where DFR stock dropped then climbed again in 3 days.

On this last time-sensitive opportunity alone, Doug's circle of speculative insiders were able to move fast enough to double their money in less than 72 hours.

But it gets better. With a recommendation to sell Diamond Fields stock after an outstanding 4 for 1 split, Doug's newsletter readers made a healthy profit of 1,933%. Meanwhile, those early investors who were comfortable with the added risk and had bought heavily when DFR was still a young investment made 4,071%.

I've worked closely with Doug long enough that I'm not worried about doing a little bragging on his behalf. Thousands of International Speculator subscribers have profited from returns like those on Bema (742%) ... International Avino (466%) ... and Nevsun (259%).

I assure you, you can expect many more opportunities like these in the issues to come.

But here's something you might not have expected: You can't get all of Doug's best picks from the newsletter. The fact is, many of the stocks that make the most money for Doug simply are not appropriate for all investors.

Now, I know some of you might be wondering why you haven't heard about this exclusive type of investment until now. The fact is, we had no choice. It was the only responsible thing to do. Let me explain...
