Is Voltaire crazy?

Perhaps not with the kind of money he alleges to have ... a few million, I believe was the figure in mid-June ...

Thing about it is, most of his sheep have not the wealth, nor similar 'life goals' to achieve financial independence.

Swinging with the flow of Tom's obsessions regarding which common stocks of the week or month to go 'hog wild' on is not something the rest of us need to do, IMHO.

Appears that Tom hates 'research.' And formal education. And, well, what else ... uh, ... perhaps corporate working experience. Knows nothing about technology, but cuts & pastes from those who might.

Be careful out there, folks ... particularly those of you attempting to build your net worth by following Voltaire and 'his angels.'

To wit:

Hi Nichols,

you make some good points. The same points would be made in the Wharton School of Business and investors
would be wise to note them.

I have never been one to adjudicate a stock situation on a " this occurred, therefore basis " or deal in absolutes,
such as " never average down ".

Been out all day and was only able to get another 100 calls, bringing my total to 400. Hope to pick up more
tomorrow.

I still say, if they are going to be giving away money, you'll be able to find Voltaire in that long long line.

Thanks, always enjoy your posts.

Voltaire
