It is, indeed, the real high-tech executive and angel investor Jeff Brown.
Welcome to our very first Friday AMA at Outer Limits!
To my U.S.-based subscribers, I hope you all had a fantastic Thanksgiving. And to all subscribers, a warm happy holidays. We’re in the final stretch of the year.
The support we’ve received in our inbox over the last few days, since I published the inaugural issue of Outer Limits, has been overwhelming, to say the least. I want to thank all of you who took the time to reach out, and let you know we got your emails. I posted a few of them below. Your enthusiasm feeds my motivation to keep at it.
I’m planning on a regular Friday AMA (Ask Me Anything), where I’ll do my best to answer three of your questions. When we see common questions popping up, we’ll grab those, as I know that many others will have the same question.
And I’ll try to pick out interesting questions that lead to a good discussion on hot topics and trends of interest.
I will read all of the questions and feedback that comes in. I can’t respond personally to individual e-mails. But I will do my best to cover as much ground as I can in the AMAs.
Subscribers can write in here with questions and feedback at any time.
We’re in startup mode right now, so please hang in there with us. We’ll be making a lot of improvements on the website and product plans in the coming weeks. I’m hard at work on a road map for research products, but I won’t sacrifice quality for speed.
More than anything else, I respect your time. So I’ll do my best to make the most of it. One thing that you’ll notice right away is that I won’t clutter up Outer Limits with endless marketing promotions. And any e-mails that we send will come from me, and only pertain to my published research and Brownridge Research-related investment products.
There’s a lot more to come…
Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season,
Jeff
Hi Mr. Jeff Brown. I am so happy to have crossed path with you, again. I was (and still am) an unlimited member at Brownstone Research, and I must say that I was so sad when I heard the news that you left us. I (and many thousands of other fans/subscribers) are missing you. While I am so happy to have found you, one thing really bothers me, and that's the fact that I simply have no way of confirming that the person I'm writing to right now is TRULY our very own Jeff Brown. Please, kindly provide me (and other fans) an absolute, undeniable, and irrefutable proof/evidence that you are truly our very own beloved Jeff Brown, as opposed to a wannabe Jeff Brown. If I'm convinced that you are the REAL Jeff Brown, I wish to subscribe to your valuable research and recommendations, at Brownridge Research, once again. Thank you so much, and I really appreciate you and your prompt response. — Kazem S.
Hello Kazem, Thanks for writing in and raising such an important question.
Fake accounts and impostors have been one of my biggest headaches over the years. I asked for help concerning this issue quite a bit, and sometimes we were able to get fake accounts closed, but most of the time not. I hope to find a way to change that under my new banner at Brownridge.
Here are some specifics:
Finally, here is a link to the Brownridge welcome video, which I just recorded and posted, so you can see the “REAL” me.
There are fake websites, fake Twitter accounts, and even fake LinkedIn accounts, so please be careful.
The above are the only accounts I currently have active. Please note, my Facebook and Instagram accounts are just placeholders. There is no activity yet as we’re just getting started. If/when I open an account or change my handle, I’ll post links at www.brownridge.com, at the very bottom of the website in the footer, and I’ll also update in Outer Limits.
I’d also like to say that it was sad and disappointing for me to have been kicked out of Brownstone/Legacy Research after eight years of sacrifice and major contributions to the overall business.
It wasn’t my intention to leave, nor was it in my control. And I absolutely wanted to be there for my subscribers when there were such difficult market conditions. It was very uncomfortable for me to have my ties cut with my subscribers at such an important time.
My last official day at Brownstone/Legacy was August 26th, this year. I had hoped to start researching and writing much sooner, but we experienced about a 10-week delay as we had been negotiating for the purchase of www.brownridge.com. It took a lot longer than expected, but we wanted to do it right and launch with the perfect internet domain.
Thank you to all of you that made the effort to find me in my new “house.” We have a lot of catching up to do, and a lot to stay on top of.
And fortunately, as I had been predicting over the last year or so, the tech market did recover in the second half of this year. It has been admittedly lopsided towards large capitalization artificial intelligence related stocks, but at least we saw institutional capital flood back into the markets.
Thanks again,
The “REAL” Jeff Brown

Fahgeddabout Houston: Brownridge, YOU have LIFT OFF! Hallelujah for your astute foresight and proactive acumen!

Oh my gosh Jeff… It's so good to have you back! Your broad coverage, without spin, and the clarity you bring while delving into any technology is refreshing and was sorely missed. I don't know any of the details regarding your separation from your previous publisher, but it is good to assume you are now in control. I look forward to your enlightening review of technology, and hopefully you will provide a means for viewers to toss questions your way. Honestly, I'll sleep better tonight knowing you are back. God Bless Jeff! — Clayson
