i don't pretend to always be cordial or constructive, so if you don't like that fact, maybe you should put me on ignore <g>
if you presume that you are cordial and constructive at all times, i would say that (a) you are way off base, and (b) that assumption on your part has about as much credibility as your purported investment success...as in, you can't back that statement up either
how many times have you used this thread to take shots at dale baker? were those posts cordial and constructive? in many cases the comments therein might have had value, until you decided to add the parts where you took a shot at him...he posts EVERY trade he makes, you post basically none...i may not always agree with him, especially when it comes to politics, but there is no disputing his investment record, nor his contribution to this site...the same cannot be said for you
i could cite many other examples, but the point is the same...your posts come across as pompous and dictatorial, far more often than cordial...by the way, what happened to the friend you invented to respond to one or two of your posts here after dale banned you from his thread? LOL...full points for that one, that was hysterical as well, did we already discuss the fact that i love to laugh?
you stated in one post that you don't like the kind of dialogue that i attempt, but you don't want a dialogue of any kind...you want to come here and pontificate to us about your supposedly superior system from dr. posel, and yet you are never willing to post any real time buys or sells, you just cite stocks you already supposedly own and which have gone up, or you give a list of stocks that are of interest, and later you say you bought one or two of them, and they have risen X%, etc...you've never admitted a mistake or a losing trade, you claim that you make 30, 40, 45%, whatever EVERY year, and you play this i'm better than you/him game with people like dale baker...is it any surprise that you are treated with disdain?
perhaps what you should do is start your own thread, since while everyone has their own idea of "value," it's clear that your perceptions of value are much different than most people on this thread...there are many stocks that i buy which i wouldn't discuss on this thread, because they are not what most people would consider "value" ideas, especially as described in the header of this thread...instead of trying to bend the thread to your definition of value, why not begin your own thread called bruwin value discussion, or something like that? you can even ban me if you want, right off the bat <G> |
