You know, I was kind of wondering that myself. It seems like any "advice" they offer is hardly what I'd call free. What I generally do with their advice is research whatever they recommend even further. Schwab.com has a real nice research site that can give you Argus, Reuters, S & P and Schwab's own research on most stocks. I usually check Zack's and Morningstar, too.
Moral of the story: don't trust any one opinion when you're buying stock. Ultimately, you have to do the research yourself.

Halfgoyim, I love your nickname. Here's the answer from a Totalgoyim.
Suppose that all of the recommendations on the Motley Fool, or one of its services like "Hidden Gems", would be audited, the Motley Fool could post that on their website and tell people: "See? We have had great results since we started our site".
The reason why they don't do that is because the results aren't so good.
My advice: stick with services that will provide you with audited results of all their recommendations, over a long period of time (ideally since inception). As you may have guessed, that's my case; the link is below.
Let's make money!
Good luck

perhaps you can try forex. which is also excellent way for you to invest.
The FOREX or Foreign Exchange market is the largest financial market in the world, with an volume of more than $1.5 trillion daily, dealing in currencies. Unlike other financial markets, the Forex market has no physical location, no central exchange. It operates through an electronic network of banks, corporations and individuals trading one currency for another.

Anyone who gives financial advise to the multitudes is indeed a fool. Financial advice is specific to each individual. Generally I find his advice is meant to sell newspapers not help an individual investor.
