<<RE:Smith Barney--- Anyone ever known a client of Smith Barney's to make any real money from their advice?>> No I sure haven't.....One of my friends in Iowa has a broker friend at SS Barney that talked him into Disney, Boeing, Erickson, and Engineering Animation. This was over a year ago. The problem is my friend and his wife are the "buy and hold type." Check out these stocks...many are near their lows...I tried to talk my friend into doing his own investing -- and I STRONGLY recommended a large position in DELL and AOL. Oh well I'm not a broker <ggg>.... The manager of SS Barney in Des Moines, Iowa called to try to get me to become a client. I told him I was fully invested but interested in his firm's opinion on DELL. He said he felt Compaq was a safer stock with a better upside...Hmmm....I read the SS Barney propaganda on DELL and CPQ a week later and realized that I wasn't making ANY changes. Best Regards, Scott
