Second to being entertaining so he can keep doing it, I believe what Bob Brinker says on the radio and in his newsletter is MOSTLY designed to generate newsletter subscription sales for himself, rather than educate investors and followers to the point where they can manage their own financial assets in a prudent manner. The talk that parallels prudent advice is for credibility.

After all, if he really wanted to educate people, then
1: why not post his returns by year on his web site and
2: show his returns with the QQQ advice and
3: keep things like GLD on his "recommended list" that he NEVER recommended and has bashed for years while he buries things like
A: those four mutual funds he recommended for IRA in April 2000, (go look at the April 2000 MT and see how well those did)
B: TEFQX that he recommended with a full page in his Feb 2000 MT for up to 5%, never put a sell on it and has it as "hold for future recovery" but dropped it from his recommended list.

I can add many more, but you get the idea... The handling of GLD vs TEFQX on his newsletter makes the case so well....
