1. What does it take to become a real broker, like you are doing, without going through the sleazy, cold-calling salesman phase?

2. I know you hate buy & hold, but . . . I have never heard you mention anything about small bank stocks. For example, Community Bank System Inc. (CBU) was touted in Barron's last October and then again in the Roundtable. It seems like a cheap, safe stock to hold for the long term. I would guess there are no derivatives shenanigans going on there, but then again they do not have "too big to fail" protection from the Fed.
