>>I'm saying is they wouldn't risk their own money on their
picks. On the other hand, I have.

Respectfully and strongly disagree with you! I have invested in ALL of my picks during the contest with the exception of DELL.

And BTW, the CYSP was a no brainer. At the time the the contest started it was $2 under its IPO. Only reason because everything was getting hammered. That is the reason we are seeing the high returns. EVERYTHING WAS WHACKED.

Now, If I had my original position in CYSP, I;d be an idiot because at one point it was up 600%+. Profit taking? Bet your sweet butt.

But I'm currently long CYSP again(too much fun), and as far as CKFR, well, that one took even less brains, and I'm extremely long there. Been in it for almost a year now, and not only have I steered friends and family into positions there, I remain extremely bullish even at $20.

Did you even look at my picks besides my crazy overvalued CYSP?

I thought I did a pretty good job of mixing up some long shots with solid blues. Only thing, who'd thought Gillette and Dell would be the stinkers? I had them pegged for at least 40% each from when the contest began. Oh well, guess I have a few things to learn.

Thankyou for all your work Forest.
