Craig: I don't care what Bill says in his latest revision of whether he bought and held, or rotated, or lost most of his money, or was only down a little or whatever. You say he got his money out of the market -- fine. That is version 501 of his story and who cares anyway. The real issue is whether Bill is a clever manipulator or just a really dumb guy who eventually believed the most absurd BS and made it his own BS and shared it with this thread. I am in the latter camp. I watched him escalate his BS over time. I watched him deny the way the market was coming apart. I watched him deny that he was ever wrong -- just as I watched him being consistently wrong.

One last point. It is hardly a positive reflection on your own insight into the market to assume that you had only two choices -- buy the bubble or short the bubble. There are real companies out there -- thousands of them -- with tradable securities. Bill always claimed to have "a well diversified portflio" -- another sign of his lack of intelligence if you looked at the list of stocks he owned. A person who really did have diverse holdings would be much better off than somebody who got sucked into Bill's mindless little mania binge. Good luck Craig.
