Greetings Contrarian,

Today we have a special guest post by Tommy Humphreys.

Tommy is a young mining entrepreneur (I like to think he’s young since he’s around my age), who’s had a brilliant track record.

He’s one of the original co-founders and brains behind the site ceo.ca - which is a must-go-to if you invest in Canadian markets.

In this special Sunday edition, he tells us a riveting story about getting into mining stocks and what’s possible when you associate with the right people at the right time.

Happy speculating (responsibly),

The Editor
