Slope of Hope Blog Posts

It Gets Worse
I just made my beloved Slope Plus subscribers a terrific new video. What do you freeloaders get? More Eric Andre, that’s what.
Almost Unheard-Of Slope Plus Offer
There was a time that I would offer Slope Plus promotional coupons quite frequently – – just about monthly, at one point. I stopped, however, because I didn’t want people to get accustomed to me giving a free month for a service that takes a lot of time and effort (and, frankly, is really under-priced).
It’s been fifteen months, however, since i’ve made any kind of offer, so I thought i’d brush off the old coupon system and make an offer to any of you interested in trying out Slope Plus for free. You can read about the features of Slope Plus by clicking this link, and click here to start your free subscription.
On the subscription page, enter the code summer2016 in the coupon box, as shown here:
This coupon will be usable until September 21, the last day of summer. That’s all there is to it. I hope you’ll read about the features and give it a try, since this free-for-a-month offer comes along very infrequently. Thanks!

Would that the market were behaving in such a way as to inspire an easy, content-rich post analyzing its behavior. Sadly, this is not the case. It’s a testament to the Slope community that, in the face of that red-hot poker stick you see drawn below, we still have a thriving, dynamic blog on what is ostensibly (thanks to your insane host) a bearish blog. Can you possibly imagine this place during a downturn? (more…)
Iggy Gives Me Wood
During the many years that I’ve been running Slope, readers from all corners of the earth have shipped me gifts, such as chocolates, wine, little statues, and so on. I find it very touching anyone would take the time or trouble, but Scott (Iguanodon) created for me a couple of real gems. First, there’s this puzzle:
