It just amazes me how a well known professional like Bob Brinker with a national radio audience of dedicated fans and supporters could act so unprofessional

You said it.

It scares me how so many people put their full faith behind a personality on the radio. Without even meeting this guy, they'll go and believe anything he says or does. He has the power to control the information that goes out over his program and he manipulates it to his benefit. He has the power to control what goes out in his newsletter and subscribers hang on every word.

It's exactly the essence of a cult. It's how a magician fools you to believe that the magic he does is real. It's how a card counter beats the house in Vegas. None of it is real but only finely crafted deception. Yet, fools believe because they have nothing else to believe in so they suspend reality.

Here's the reality. Bobbler's got some neat number tricks that work sometimes. He'd like to make you think he has some special magic that allows him to model the stock market trends. He may look like he knows what he's doing now. But, he's failed before and he'll fail again.

He's a gambler at heart. He's always tilting at guessing odds for this and that. I'll bet his life at home is like a Vegas odds-maker. He's in a lucky streak -- for now. But it's easy to look like you're in a lucky streak when you don't tell anyone about your bobbles.
