Brian, the people I know of who have been thrown off Justa's thread so far combined their anti-Brinker agenda with a DISREGARD for the facts, except for Michael, who resorted to insults and other behavior which made it seem like he was TRYING to get thrown off. Mr. GreenJeans, on the other hand, has been presenting a dissenting view of the market's future, and has not had any problem as far as I can tell, because he sticks to the facts and reasoned discussion.

Secondly, Brinker's followers do NOT claim he is a guru. As for why he is not running a fund or basking on a beach, you could ask the same question of Bill Gates. I am quite sure that neither of them needs the money, so I have to assume that they are doing what they WANT to do. Isn't that the whole point of trying to get rich anyway?

As for companies' income from investments, I agree that is a good thing, but I also believe there is a case to be made for keeping track of a company's earnings from their core business as well.
