Marina and I returned home from Houston late Wednesday night. After trips to London and Mexico City, we were tired to say the least... but also very excited.
That's because our latest trip allowed us to spend several days visiting the initial drilling sites for Money Map Project #1 in South and East Texas.
After touring the site, I'm now happy to report that the first well, the Willard Unit #1H, in the Austin Chalk formation in South Texas is rapidly nearing completion.
When the final horizontal drilling segment is completed in about two weeks and the entire well is set for production, our operating company will officially "call" the well.
At that point, no further investment will be allowed into our 25-well project, marking a major milestone.

This is pretty country where grazing longhorn cattle coexist with pumps moving oil and gas out of the ground.
And it has all the components of a massive energy investing winner...
A Long and Profitable Journey
Of course, the road to this point has been a long one.
But when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) changed its regulations in late September of last year, the prospect for average investors to become partners in an actual oil and gas drilling project became a reality for the first time ever.
As I have written to you since then, these changes have allowed me to phase in an entirely new energy investing approach I had been working on for over two years.
It involved hand-picking a few companies and projects that agreed to the 10 tough provisions I had created to provide a better return for direct oil and gas investors than anything ever attempted in the industry.
Simply put, it offered Money Map Press subscribers - who were also "accredited investors" - the opportunity to invest in a private oil and gas deal at a fraction of what earlier investments in such projects would cost.
What's more, I would be overseeing the investment moves in each of these projects to maximize their returns by selecting programs using very stringent geological and drilling requirements.
And today, what I can tell you is that what started as an idea is now rapidly turning into one of the most potentially lucrative opportunities I have ever developed. In fact, Money Map Project #1 is already receiving a lot of attention throughout the rest of the industry.
But that's not too surprising. After all, this is the only new venture that has been rolled out since the revisions in SEC regulations.
The good news is Money Map Project #1 is just the first in a series of such direct investment plays I will be unveiling in the months ahead.
And as you can see, your prospects for cashing in have never been better.
