Does anyone have experience with the Motley Fool research services? Specifically the one that's $299 a year?

I heard about that on the Bigger Pockets Money podcast and am somewhat interested. I have a few bucks I wouldn't mind playing around with for something like that,

I did it for a year when it was discounted/free via amex plat card.

I thought it was helpful but didn't really impact my investments or approach

So helpful but I personally wouldn't spend 299$ for it

I pay for it, I think I found PLTR and ASML through them so those two alone are well worth the annual fee. I only pay about 150/year so maybe I don't have the full sub.

I used Stock Advisor before and learned about DDOG, MELI, CDNS, AXON and others. For $99/year which is what I pad, I found the service to be well worth the while. I'm up about 4x on AXON as well as some huge gains on MELI and CDNS. There were others that I dumped but I dumped way too early as had I stuck with my positions I'd have some big winners.

They used to be free long ago and the Fool was a great resource, along with seeking alpha. I've heard mixed reviews since the Fool started charging for subs. Seems along the lines of what others posted here.

I have a friend who has had a long time sub, uses their suggestions a lot but for small money. Usually 10 shares. But he owns over 1000 stocks and is a multi-millionaire despite never making over $75K a year. Take that FWIW.
He's always giving me tips, he had some good ones during Covid that I ignored. I should have listened.

They nailed the NVDA pick way back in 2015 or maybe sooner, and those that listened are very likely millionaires today. Had a couple of more really good picks as well, so for $299 per year seems like good information to have at relatively low cost.

For those who have followed them for a while, how many duds are there? Do you have a rough idea of the percentage of successes that are recommended?

I subscribed to one of their "other" portfolios and got absolutely hammered in my HSA. The only one I'd recommend is Stock Advisor.

You could always just buy their ETF ticker TMFC. It's their top 100 companies rolled into a fund.

I don't think they kick stocks to the curb fast enough.
