queen said: "Well, she can say it if she wants, but the comment is suspect and "begs the question"--if she "doesn't give a flying fig", why post about Brinker's opinions and personality and her problems with his presentation here and otherwise all day every day for years and years, why start a blog with "Bob Brinker" in the title, etc. etc.?"
Firstly, queen, I didn't say that I don't give a flying fig what BOB BRINKER says about anything and everything. I said I didn't give a flying fig what BOB BRINKER says about INFLATION.
Here are my exact words: Well, "I know that you consider me a BOB BRINKER basher, so I will tell you my opinion about inflation........I call that inflation. As for BOB BRINKER'S opinion--who gives a flying fig?"
Now, for you love-to-twist-Honey's words-bots, let me explain what I DO give a flying fig about concerning BOB BRINKER.
I care when he uses subterfuge, deception, and cover-up tactics (tactics that should be illegal, IMO) to promote his news letter.
I care that he uses trickery on his radio program to snag uninformed new subscribers.
I care that new subscribers have no way of knowing that the performance record for his model portfolios are calculated by using a portion of the same money twice.
I care that he falsely touts his Hulbert's Financial Digest ranking.
I also care that HFD overlooks BOB BRINKER'S QQQQ cover-up when they rank him the 3rd and 4th place--I'd bet my next year's salary if the QQQQ-trades were added in BOB BRINKER would not even rank 3rd or 4th in HFD. . |
