" Chuck : Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz .... boring." I am sorry if I am not entertaining enuf to elitist snobs. Just because I don't subscribe to Bob's newsletter, I guess I am not in the little chic "click" here. I like to consider myself a truly independent investor not comfortable with towing a "guru's" line all the time, that's how I make my money. If I go over the cliff, at least I didn't feel like a lemming following the other 10's of thousands of little creatures into oblivion together. And yes I do flirt with the pennies and the mini's I guess that puts me in the "red light district" of investing...well, I'll tell ya, I am proud of my successes there where I think its safer to use my own common sense in deciding who to listen to instead of following the pack. I used to follow that guy "granville" a long time ago, like thousands of others and used to think he could speak no wrong....blindly putting my stash into his ideas, all the sudden, he went dry and so did my account....that's the last time I blindly take one guys word....I developed "street smarts" and learned to play the market pennies or whatever and whereever the opportunity strikes, and don't sit up at night waiting for the next newsletter to tell me what to do.....I do my DD and use whatever sources I find appropriate and then act on that. So I have made money in the internets and I guess a lot of investors missed out on making tremendous returns because they felt they were "overvalued." Well, you entertain yourselves your way, personally I find your ideas pedestrian and boring and stiff and defensive myself. Chuckr
