"You and I argued that a few managers, such as Bill Miller and Joel Tillinghast, were NOT just lucky."

Ahh... yes, now I remember... thanks.

"But that doesn't change the fact that most experts agree with bernardo."

Really? Please give a list. John Bogle admits he invests some of his money in managed funds. Rande Spiegelman invests a good deal of his money in managed funds AND he made quite a bit of money from some of the stocks in my newsletter... more than I did on BOWG he loved to kid me...

Bottom line is most "pros" think they can do better than the average investor. Most of the books are written to sell to average investors to teach them how to do well without spending a ton of time and money.

"--Again, I never owned that fund. But I DO own several funds whose managers have beaten the indexes over long periods of time."

OK... was it Bill Miller's fund?

FWIW, I mostly bought FLPSX back in 1998 to diversify. I had a load of large and small cap tech and wanted someone who was good, but not in technology. That fund had a near zero tech weighting if I recall.

"--I don't hate you. Why would I hate you?"

I can't say why, but you sure go out of your way to believe the worst and attribute things to me I never said such as the lie shres posted that you went along with. You are clearly not logical or impartial since the level and frequency of your "mistakes" about me seem to be increasing.
