Well-that's kinda the point. Buffett didn't become a billionaire by saying "Somebody please lead me and my portfolio around by the nose". Your ".quick killing," indeed. <g>

Oooooooh.... disappointment indeed... you mean, Buffy did not read "How to Make Money in the Stock Market in Three Months... [or less]"

I guess I am beginning to understand why it is not working for me.... I mean, I have been at it for 6 months (after reading the book), and I do not seem to be getting ahead...

All that advice from the Racketeers and the FTEL's senior citizens members of the Circus of the Absurd, (I call them the Old Farts, but they get mad at me), to "have faith" as the rock bottom prices will not be at these levels soon.... and "I know better than to trade for quick and meager 400 % profit, as I must wait for the real Kahunga, or Kamuka, or Kamikazee.... or whatever the hell is it that I am supposed to wait for ?? the Blue light specials...

Oh what disappointment ! (sigh, sigh)....

Or study, research, become experienced, learn from mistakes, get some accounting background, learn some TA, learn some business fundamentals, read some books, make some effort, do some work. Make good decisions, but make some bad ones, too. They help.

They dooooo? but... but.... I thought.... well... that takes time and effort does it not ? And, and, all those numbers ! do I really have to? What about all those guys that advertise on TV, about millions of dollars of profit waiting to be made on a few currency trading tips, with those state of the art e-mail newsletters, and.... and...

You know, I think you are kidding me, because if these guys did not make the money they make in their trades, how would they be able to pay for all those TV advertisements (during late night TV) ??

How do you answer that Mr. B?... Have you researched that ? What about some "DD" on the subject from you, I never heard anything form you on this subject.... how about it Mr. B. ?

Besides, all those graphs.... and all those numbers to learn oh my! those graphs, they must be really confusing to understand, besides, I think that if I really follow the tips and stick with the racketeers, I will be able to enjoy the power of the herd.... besides, it really feels fuzzy and [like a] worm to be "one of the racketeers" it is soooo cooooool.

You know, with all those nice people rooting for us and really doing the "DD" (I must confess that I do not know what "DD" is, would you mind telling me), secretly, that is between you and me, I thought that "DD" meant Dangling Dildo... but I think I am wrung...

You can PM me and tell me what it really means, you know, we do not want the rest of the thread to know I did not know the meaning of the "DD" thinghy...

The same goes for TA.... is that "Take Aim" (at the quote page in the newspaper and hit it with the darts....)

Secretly I will tell you that sometimes that is how I make my picks in investing.... it is so fun !! Especially after a few beers !

The problem is all my [dart] picks seem to be lingering on at the same price, or even going down, that is why I turned to SI for my stock picks, sometimes it seems to be so much better.

Although let me tell you some have been real dogs, and some I can not even find the symbol in the quote machines.... (I think there is one that goes like FNB... something or other...)

Or follow the PennyPinheads like a sheep, follow the FAMH, Dog House, and WACC threads, watch your money go down the toilet, then start over and do all of the above-except with less money than what you started with. "Investing" is a bit different from "Craps", believe it or not-really-honest-have I ever lied to ya'? <gg>

Follow the Penis, like sheep... hmmmm that kind of sounds erotic you know ! I am sure you did not mean..... no never mind!

Although... you also mention FAMH is that Female Alliance [in] Menstrual Heat ? and Dog House ? hmm is that a beer stock ? what about WACC is that Wild Arses Calling Card ? is that in the Internet Telephony business, just like FTEL ?? boy that must be a hot one for sure !!

What about the watch the money going to the toilet, and investing is different than crap ?

You know Mr. B, you really have me confused.....I think you are just a regular hypster to me, throwing all these bs around, I do not think I should trust you, I better go and read some more fuzzy woozy racketeer crap, oh sorry, stuff, at least that makes me feel good and worm..... As for investing, I do not know, I think I will just let my broker "do the hard work", and then 10 years from now, I hope he will do well for me, what do you think of that strategy ??

Z. (Ever hopeful to find a gentle soul to give me a few million $$$)
