"Kirk: Is this (first page below) honest advertising?
Dija: However, I will answer your question, and my answer is "no."

Good, so we can put you on the record as saying Brinker's advertising is dishonest (ie not honest for the semiliterate)

Thanks for your honest answer.

"For example, I recall that YOU (kirk) advertised your newsletter a while back by giving your one and five-year results, while leaving out the 3-year results. Or something like that. I'm not sure of the exact results, but shres probably knows.

Anyway, you left out something that made you look bad, while using the results that made you look good.

Very similar to what brinker did.

Balogna! Brinker, as you agreed, dishonestly leaves out material information that affect his subscriber's returns. I've never done that.

I have no clue what crap you accuse me of years ago that you can't even remember but accuse me of. shres, we've proven he's a pathalogical liar when it comes to me so I'd not believe anything you read from him on other boards.

Since day one I've always sent anyone who asks my returns by year. This year it is on page 4 of my sample issue. It clearly states what my returns are by year including 2002 where I lost 21.2% followed by 2003 where I redeemed myself with a 76.74% year.

I also send a graph of my portfolio by month so they can calculate from the graph whatever they want. NOTHING is hidden! And, I don't dishonestly cover up bad advice or lie about major market timing clls.

I'll advertise highlights that make me look good just like Chevy advertises how many people its Suburbans can carry and does not advertise their MPG on TV. There is nothing wrong with that. Brinker's advertisement is basically advertising that his SUV gets the MPG of a Prius.... you said yourself that this was dishonest!

Lying vs talking about highlights are completely different, not "similar."

To say I am similar to Brinker is a lie because I've explained this to you it seems like 100 times. One might say you are either very stupid and forget simple things like this or you are a liar. I tend to think you are simply brainwashed by your hatred for me.
