Does, doesn't it.

I was in a bookstore browsing this weekend. We have a new Barnes and Noble, our first big bookstore, so its been a while since I was able to do some serious browsing.

Anyway, I went to the Personal Finance shelves and took a quick look at the dozens of books describing "the coming fall", "the DOW 100,000", how to make money in a _____ market (fill in the blank), TA for this and that. I realized, for the first time, that I have no use for these books. My G/K view of investing has provided me with a relatively simple model and language for investing.

One year ago I would have bought a few of these books, read them, made some real blunderous trades, gotten even more confused, and gone back to "a balanced portfolio".

So far, so good.
