life,

<<Not at all. I respect him a great deal. However, I realize he is only human (and has trouble admitting when he's made a bad call). I just feel sorry for the multitudes who follow him blindly, refuse to expend the energy to do their own due diligence and thinking, and then, when they lose their money, refuse to accept responsibility for
their investment mistakes caused by their blind faith in another (necessarily fallible)human being.>>

Your post in question had nothing to do with your pity for "the multitudes who follow him blindly...." And by the way those who have followed him blindly have made so much money that they are deserving of envy not pity. I think it would be more reasonable to question the sanity of anyone who would pity folks who have been on the right side of the market for the full duration of the biggest bull in history. You disagree. And while I'm thinking about it let me ask, just how did you go about ascertaining your data regarding the blindness of these so-called multitudes? Are they completely blind or just admitedly on a learning curve and trying to improve their wits and knowledge like most of us around here?

<< If you spent any time learning about the markets (outside of listening to Bob), you would already know that.>>

I have rarely encountered this level of presumptive arrogance. You deserve a metaphysical two by four across your forbone. You scallywag! That you would make such a comment of disrespect to Justa, one of the founders of this thread, is outrageous. Get out and stay out!
