Well, I believe he is. 

He certainly comes across as a man of integrity.  I've heard him alot over the past year or so and listened to his back shows. There is no way, in my opinion, that he's a snake oil sales man. His long term predictions on precious metals, oils and the Dow have been nothing short of incredible.

I feel comfortable that he is in fact 'the real deal'

Other than the quality of Kimbers assetts, he is one of my major reasons for me sticking with Kimber through thick and thin.
