John,
A more objective perspective would be an evaluation of an example of the Gorilla Game as run in real time, say, over the past 5 1/2 years. ... at SEBL's current price of something less than $12, the Front Office Gorilla Game portfolio would be worth something less than $10,400 right now.
To be precise, the value is $10,254 at the close of today's market. In other words, during those 5 1/2 years, the Gorilla Game's value increased a measly 2.5%. During the same period, the S&P 500 decreased 7%.
Everyone can decide for themselves (i) if that validates or invalidates the Gorilla Game strategies or (ii) if that return should be compared to any other investment strategy that produced lesser or greater returns during the same period. I don't care whether any one else on the planet uses any or all of Gorilla Game strategies or whether anyone thinks they are worth something less than trash or something greater than platinum.
However, if one is going to be selective in one's choice of facts, then one should be willing to accept some personal criticism for demonstrating selection bias.
I disagree. Though there is plenty of room for critique of bias demonstrated in a selection process, there is ABSOLUTELY no room for personal criticism.
When I saw that you had posted here, I decided on a whim to "unignore" your name. Having seen that you are still promoting personal criticism, my selection bias dictates that I immediately return your name to my "ignore" list.
