Yes, Brady, Jon Tara wastes an awful lot of time on this Zulu thread, doesn't he? Forty-eight posts yesterday all meant to gum up the board.
You'd think he'd devote his "spare time" toward the online stock discussion club he established a few years ago, about the time SI was coming into fruition. It's called Stock Club ( stockclub.com ).
And guess what? JT's Stock Club still has a mechanism whereby interested investors can sign up and begin moving about within the different stock discussion threads. It's a free service. It could have been, and still could be, a great service if adequate attention were devoted toward it.
But guess what? It is way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way out of date and very much unattended. He doesn't even have hot Internet stocks included. Even many of the oil drillers and biotech stocks noted in his forum have merged and/or changed. But he's still got folks signing up in order to participate in a dinosaur discussion thread. There's no upfront warning that it's out of date, in essence, defunct.
So, Brady, ask him why he can't at least forego one or two of his anti-Zulu posts in order to revisit his own forum and make a change so that innocent folks don't fall into the trap of signing up for something that's so far out of date and nowhere near in times with today's market. What if someone made an investing decision based on information that came from that room, how prudent would that be?
Well, he's probably just building up his mailing list, and he's too busy over here posting anti-Zulu propaganda to clean up his own Stock Club. For some reason--and he's never adequately explained this--he thinks its more valuable to devote his time toward condemning Zulu and its investors.
Let's see, he had 48 posts yesterday, at 15 minutes a post for seven hours and 20 minutes, at a software architect's salary of about $75 an hour. My gosh! Hey, let's all say hooray for minimum wage! Do you realize just yesterday that Jon Tara devoted $540 dollars worth of software architect hourly wage time by successfully gumming up Zulu's new thread, HIS very own new forum for bashing Zulu. Jon, why don't you start up a Zulu bashers thread and leave us alone!
TO JON: Take a strong message: Your time is better spent cleaning up your own house! Go fix your Stock Club discussion forum and make it a viable operation and stop tampering with our investment. OK? Does this seem reasonable?
Brady, I've delivered this through you, because the only response Jon Tara is going to receive from me is a "click," and that's only to acknowledge to him that I've read his post. In my view, debating the pros and cons of Zulu can best be accomplished by communicating with reasonable people, advocates and critics alike. |
